PART I

Item 1. Business

Defense Technologies International Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on May 27, 1998. Effective June 15, 2016, the Company changed its name from Canyon Gold Corp. to Defense Technologies International Corp. to represent the Company’s expansion goals more fully into the advanced technology sector.

Our principal executive office is located at 2683 Via De La Ville Suite G418, Del Mar CA 92014 147, telephone (1-800) 520-9485. Additional office space is subleased from EMAC at 641 West 3rd Street, North Vancouver BC, Canada.

Development of Scanner Technology Business

Defense Technologies International Corp.’s (the “Company”) subsidiary PSSI acquired the world-wide exclusive rights to the Passive Security Scan™ a ‘next generation, walk-through personnel scanning system. The Passive Portal™ a patented product (US Patent: 7408461) is an advanced passive scanning technology for detection and identifying concealed threats to be used for the security of schools and other public venues.

Our research shows The Passive Portal™ as the only known Walk-Through Scanner in today’s market that is based on PASSIVE SENSING – ZER0-RATION and is therefore totally harmless to the subject being scanned. All other Walk-Through Scanners in the market are based on ACTIVE SCANNING with radiation and therefore can be harmful over time.

PSSI has the exclusive World-Wide license to manufacture and sell the Passive Scanning Technology™. We added a Camera for the detection of Elevated Body Temperatures (EBT), our first products are:

Passive Portal™, Passive Portal™ EBT, Passive EBT Station

On October 19, 2016, the Company entered into a Definitive Agreement with Controlled Capture Systems, LLC ("CCS"), representing the inventor of the technology and assets that included a new exclusive Patent License Agreement and Independent Contractor agreement. Under the license agreement with CCS, the Company acquired the world-wide exclusive rights and privileges to the CCS security technology, patents, products and improvements. The term of the License Agreement shall be from October 19, 2016, until the expiration of the last to expire of the licensed issued patents or patents to be issued.

The Company agreed to pay CCS an initial licensing fee of $25,000 and to pay ongoing royalties at the end of each six-month period at the rate of the greater of 5% of gross sales used or sold, or the minimum royalty payment of $25,000. The Company also agreed to compensate investors that have provided funding for the development of CCS's technology with 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock.  Additionally, CCS will be entitled to receive 1 shares of the Company's common stock upon completed sales of 1,000 passive scanner units based on the CCS technology. On December 14, 2017, the Company issued 20,000 shares of Series B preferred stock to Controlled Capture Systems, LLC to extend the exclusive rights to the Passive Security Scan to March 15, 2018.

On May 30, 2018, the Company and Control Capture Systems, LLC amended their license agreement as follows:

The Company capitalized the costs to acquire the License Agreement, including the $25,000 initial licensing fee and the estimated value of $353,600 of the 5shares of the Company's common stock issued on November 10, 2016, to the CCS investors, which value was based on the closing market price of the Company's common stock on the date of the Definitive Agreement. The Company recorded a current liability of $36,000 for the remaining obligation in its consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2019.  Once sales of products based on the CCS technology begin, the Company will amortize the capitalized costs over the estimated life of the license agreement as determined by the legal life of patents issued. To date we have sold 10 units to two distributors. The Company reviewed the valuation of the license agreement and determined to impair the asset of $378,600.

Effective January 12, 2017, Passive Security Scan, Inc. ("PSSI") was incorporated in the state of Utah as a wholly owned subsidiary.  The Company merged its wholly owned subsidiary, Long Canyon Gold Resources Corp. ("Long Canyon"), into PSSI, with PSSI the surviving entity.  The Company transferred to PSSI its exclusive world-wide license to the defense, detection and protection security products previously acquired by the Company.  The Company currently owns 76.28% of PSSI with 23.72% acquired by several individuals and entities.  With the merger of Long Canyon into PSSI, the Company discontinued its mineral exploration business.  The Company concluded the initial development of the technology and will proceed to put the system through the required Beta Test at a high school near Austin Tx. All sales and marketing activities will be executed through PSSI.

The security products licensed from CCS as developed by the Company are designed for personal and collateral protection.  The proposed detection technology is intended to provide passive security scanning units for either walk-through or hand-held use to improve security for schools and other public facilities.  The units use electromagnets and do not emit anything (such as x-rays) through the subject.  The Company, in consultation with CCS, recently completed a prototype with optional “Digital Imaging” which will give the user of the scanner the ability to recall the entire traffic passing through the scanner at any time thereafter.  The prototype scanner unit has successfully passed elaborate lab testing and is ready for deployment and demonstration.

On May 06, 2024 Passive Security Scan, Inc. (Subsidiary of DTII) signed a Cooperative Research nd Development Agreement (CRADA) with the Department of Homeland Security’s Science and Technology Directorate (DHS S&T). Subject to the CRADA program, the Passive Portal will undergo 3 days of laboratory and field testing.

Competition

We believe we have the only known passive scanner technology based on earth magnetic technology that is Radiation Free and does not cause any harm to the subject passing through the scanner. Our scanners are PASSIVE SENSING and are therefore uniquely suited for school systems and other public venues. Our competitors’ technology is ACTIVE SENSING based on X-Ray, microwave or radio signals, all of which are harmful over time. We believe this provides an advantage for our scanners over those developed by our competition.

Sales and Marketing

On November 04, 2020, we engaged the services of Jonathan Silver of Cumulus Media Inc of Atlanta GA to assist DTII in Investors Relations and Marketing of its Passive Portal and EBT Station.

Through our National Marketing Director. Mr. Jonathan Silver, we have contacted schools, synagogues as well as other venue holders that have expressed interest in having the Passive Security Scan Unit presented at the school for demonstration and evaluation. Furthermore, as funding permits, we plan to install a demonstration unit in every state free of charge via the state’s Governor’s Office. We expect major exposure through this program.

Jonathan Silver arranged the installation of Demo-Units of the Passive Portal and the EBT Camera (elevated body temperature) at the Coastal Carolina University, Convey SC; Florence County Sheriff’s Detention Center, Effingham, SC; Myrtle Beach Police Department Detention Center, Myrtle Beach, SC.

We have signed three Distributorship Agreements. A distributor will get 27% discount on Gross Sales but is required to purchase a minimum of 10 units at time of signing for an exclusive distributorship. General referrals will earn a 10% discount.

With the completion of requisite funding, we expect to place the first units during the fall of 2021 and commence a major marketing campaign at the same time. We believe that we will start production and sales within the coming three to six months.

With the start of initial sales, we believe that we will be able to raise major funding through more conventional sources for our production. Saale to date include four to Macon County schools in Tuskegee AL. six to Lanett City School, Lanett AL and ten to a distributor in Texas.

Production

We acquired the necessary machinery and equipment to manufacture and assemble up to 500 Passive Portals per month at our new Dallas, Tx production facility.

To date we have manufactured and assembled 35 Passive Portal Units and ten EBT Stations the first thirteen units which will mainly be used for demonstrations and donations to valuable future customers.

In addition, we have all parts for an additional twenty-five Passive Portals at our plant in Dallas, TX.

We installed three Passive Portals and three EBT Stations in S.C. which are working without any flaws as engineered and required by its technology and as endorsed by the end-users.

Trademarks and Copyrights

We acquired the world-wide exclusive rights and privileges to the CCS security technology, patents, products and improvements. The term of the License Agreement shall be from October 19, 2016, until the expiration of the last to expire of the licensed issued patents or patents to be issued. CCS currently owns 3 patents and 2 patents pending related to the technology.

Employees

We presently have five full and part-time Consultants and do not anticipate adding additional employees until our business operations and financial resources so warrant. The Independent Contractor Agreement between the Company and CCS provides that CCS will provide support for the development of the security technology and products. The management of our Company is provided through a series of service agreements with our officers and directors and key consultants.

Facilities

We presently rent office facilities at 2683 Via De La Ville Suite G418, Del Mar CA 92014 that serve as our principal executive offices. Additional office space is subleased from EMAC at 641 West 3rd Street, North Vancouver BC, Canada.

Employee Stock Plan

We have not adopted any kind of stock or stock option plan for employees at this time.

Industry Segments

No information is presented regarding industry segments. We are presently an emerging company seeking business opportunities in one segment, the defense, detection and protection products industry.

Item 6.  Selected Financial Data.

This item is not required for a smaller reporting company.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

The consolidated financial statements included in this annual report include the financial statements of the Company and those of Passive Security Scan, Inc. ("PSSI"), a consolidated subsidiary.

Effective January 12, 2017, PSSI was incorporated in the state of Utah as a wholly owned subsidiary.  The Company merged its wholly owned subsidiary, Long Canyon Gold Resources Corp. ("Long Canyon"), into PSSI, with PSSI the surviving entity.  The Company transferred to PSSI its exclusive world-wide license to the defense, detection and protection security products previously acquired by the Company.  The Company currently owns 76.28% of PSSI with 23.72% acquired by four other individuals and entities.  With the merger of Long Canyon into PSSI, the Company discontinued its mineral exploration business.  The Company plans to continue the development of the technology and conduct all sales and marketing activities in PSSI.

Forward Looking and Cautionary Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements relating to future events or our future financial performance.  In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will” “should," “expect," "intend," "plan," anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," or similar terms, variations of such terms or the negative of such terms.  These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors.  Although forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment, actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.  Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Going Concern

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern.  Through April 30, 2024, the Company had revenue of $49,012, an accumulated deficit of $17,116,309 and a working capital deficit of $2,362,362 and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which cast substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management plans to continue to provide for the Company's capital needs during the year ending April 30, 2024, by issuing debt and equity securities and by the continued support of its related parties.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.  There is no assurance that funding will be available to continue the Company’s business operations.

Results of Operations

We currently have a limited source of operating revenues. Accordingly, $49,012 of revenue was recorded in the year ended April 30, 2024 and none in the same period in 2023.

Our total operating expenses decreased to $631,143 in the year ended April 30, 2024, from $1,734,115 in the year ended April 30, 2023. The decreases are due primarily to lower development costs and consulting fees.

Our interest expense decreased to $31,782 in the year ended April 30, 2024, from $163,643 in the year ended April 30, 2023. In addition, our loss on extinguishment of debt was $849,329, in the year ended April 30, 2023, compared to none in the same time in 2024.

We recognized a change in derivative liability to a negative $13,009 compared to a gain of $165,506 in the years ended April 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively.  We estimate the fair value of the derivative for the conversion feature of our convertible notes’ payable using the American Option Binomial pricing model at the inception of the debt, at the date of conversions to equity, cash payments and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount and a gain or loss on change in derivative liability as applicable.  These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, and variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective loan agreements.  These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liability and associated gain or loss on derivative liability will fluctuate from period to period and the fluctuation may be material.

As a result, we recognized a net loss of $575,766, and net loss of $2,627,564 on the years ended April 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Because we own 76.28% of PSSI as of April 30, 2024, we include 76.28% of the net loss of PSSI for the year ended April 30, 2024, in our consolidated net loss and have reported non-controlling interest of 23.72% of the net loss of PSSI, or $16,011, for the year ended April 30, 2024 and $51,923 for the same period in 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On April 30, 2024, we had total current assets of $7,770, consisting of cash of $171 and inventory of $7,599. Current liabilities at April 30, 2024 were $2,370,132 resulting in a working capital deficit of $2,362,362.  Included in our current liabilities and working capital deficit are payables to related parties of $1,191,708, convertible notes payable of $279,085, accounts payable and accrued expenses of $386,003 and derivative liabilities totaling $37,211, notes payable of $170,062 and accrued interest and fees payable of $178,188.

A significant portion of our current liabilities as of April 30, 2024 is comprised of amounts due to related parties of $1,191,708 compared to $910,524 for the same period in 2023.  We anticipate that in the short-term, operating funds will continue to be provided by related parties and other lenders. 

During the year ended April 30, 2024, we received cash proceeds of $16,370 in notes payable and repaid $30,500 in notes payable.  The Company issued $20,000 in convertible notes plus sold common stock for cash with a value $10,000.

During the year ended April 30, 2024, we extinguished $25,996 in principal and accrued interest through conversion of convertible notes payable to common stock.

During the year ended April 30, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $16,503 because of our net loss of $575,766, change in fair value of $13,009, increase in related party payables to $281,184, and decrease in accounts payable and accrued expense to $207,019.

During the year ended April 30, 2023, net cash used in operating activities was $109,607 as a result of our net loss of $2,627,564 offset an increase in payables to related parties of $430,135, a change in accounts payable of $943,841 stocks for service of $294,998 and loss on stock issuance of $849,329.

During the year ended April 30, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was $15,870 comprised of net proceeds from convertible notes payable of $20,000, common stock sold for cash of $10,000, notes payable related parties of $16,370, offset by repayment of notes payable of $30,500.

During the year ended April 30, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was $104,650 comprised of net proceeds from notes payable of $134,650 less repayment of $30,000.

We have not realized any significant revenues since inception and paid expenses and costs with proceeds from the issuance of securities as well as by loans from investor, stockholders, and other related parties.

Our immediate goal is to provide funding for the completion of the initial production of the Offender Alert Passive Scan licensed from CCS.  The Offender Alert Passive Scan is an advanced passive scanning system for detecting and identifying concealed threats.

We believe a related party and other lenders will provide sufficient funds to carry on general operations in the near term and fund PSSI’s production and sales.  We expect to raise additional funds from the sale of securities, stockholder loans and convertible debt.  However, we may not be successful in our efforts to obtain financing to carry out our business plan.

As of April 30, 2024, we did not have sufficient cash to fund our operations for the next twelve months.

Inflation

In the opinion of management, inflation has not and will not have a material effect on our operations until such time as we begin to realize revenues from operations.  At that time, management will evaluate the possible effects of inflation related to our business and operations following a successful acquisition or merger.

Net Operating Loss Carryforward

We have accumulated a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $8,127,926 as of April 30, 2024.  This loss carry forward may be offset against future taxable income.  The use of these losses to reduce future income taxes will depend on the generation of sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the net operating loss carryforward.  In the event of certain changes in control, there will be an annual limitation on the amount of net operating loss carryforward that can be used.  No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements for the years ended April 30, 2024, and 2023 because it has been fully offset by a valuation reserve.  The use of future tax benefit is undeterminable because we presently have no operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to intangible assets, derivative liabilities, income taxes, contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. 

For further information on our significant accounting policies see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report. There were no changes to our significant accounting policies during the year ended April 30, 2024. The following is a description of those significant accounting policies that involve estimates and judgment by management.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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.  The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources.  The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates.  To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Derivative Liabilities

We have identified the conversion features of certain of our convertible notes payable as derivatives.  We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using American Option Binomial pricing model.  We estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the inception of the financial instruments, at the date of conversions to equity and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount, and a gain or loss on change in derivative liabilities as applicable.  These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility and variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements.  These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management's judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

Basic and Diluted Loss per Common Share

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted loss per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statement of operations.  Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period.  Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method, convertible preferred stock, and convertible debt, using the if-converted method.  In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all potentially dilutive common shares if their effect is antidilutive. 

Impairment of  Inventory

The Company reviews the carrying value of its assets annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the asset by comparing the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the asset to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flows of the asset, an impairment loss is measured and recognized. An impairment loss is measured as the difference between the net book value and the fair value of the asset. The Company determined although their inventory is salable, none has been sold for over 2 years, but there is a potential of obsolescence to the asset. This could occur due to refinement of the finished product or enhancement of the parts used in the product.  The Company has determined that some impairment has occurred and is reserving an impairment. As of April 30, 2023, the Company reserved $40,586 as an impairment of the value of the inventory.

Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value using a hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence when measuring fair value using a hierarch based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value.  A financial instrument’s categorization with the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  The hierarchy prioritized the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1:  applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2:  applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:  applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

As of April 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company believes the amounts reported for cash, payables, accrued liabilities and amounts due to related parties approximate their fair values due to the nature or duration of these instruments. 

Liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were estimated as follows at April 30, 2024 and 2023:

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

For purposes of this section, the term disclosure controls and procedures mean controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”) (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.  As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective because of the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which is identified below, which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures.  

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

We have not made any changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Form 10-K that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control system was 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 inherent limitations, a system of 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 due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2024, using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013). Based on its evaluation, our management concluded that there are material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of April 30, 2024, and there are material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. We lack full time personnel in accounting and financial staff to sufficiently monitor and process financial transactions in an efficient and timely manner. This allows for insufficient segregation of duties and a lack of multiple levels of supervision and review. Our history of losses has severely limited our budget to hire and train enough accounting and financial personnel needed to adequately provide this function.  Consequently, we lacked sufficient technical expertise, reporting standards and written policies and procedures.  A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. 

This Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to an exemption for non-accelerated filers set forth in Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010.

Item 9B. Other Information.

Not applicable.

Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance.

Our executive officers and directors are as follows:

On April 30, 2016, the Board of Directors appointed Merrill W. Moses to replace Stephen M. Studdert as a director, President, CEO, acting CFO and Secretary of the Company.

During the year ended April 30, 2024 Eric Forrest was appointed as CEO of the subsidiary Passive Security Scans Inc.

All directors serve for a one-year term until their successors are elected or they are re-elected at the annual stockholders' meeting. Officers hold their positions at the pleasure of the board of directors, absent any employment agreement, of which none currently exists or is contemplated.

We presently anticipate that we will consider new, qualified persons to become directors in the future, although no new appointments or arrangements have been made as of the date hereof.

There is no arrangement, agreement or understanding between any of the directors or officers and any other person pursuant to which any director or officer was or is to be selected as a director or officer. Also, there is no arrangement, agreement or understanding between management and non-management stockholders under which non-management stockholders may directly or indirectly participate in or influence the management of our affairs.

Defense Technologies International Corp. and Subsidiary

Index to Consolidated Financial Statements

Years Ended April 30, 2024 and 2023

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Defense Technologies International Corp.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Defense Technologies International Corp. and Subsidiary (“the Company”) as of April 30, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended April 30, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of April 30, 2024 and 2023 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended April 30, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has limited revenue, an accumulated deficit, and working capital deficiency. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s 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 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 Company’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 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 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 financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

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

Revenue Recognition – Refer to Note 2 to the financial statements

Description of the Critical Audit Matter

The Company has material revenue with a revenue recognition policy in which determining when the performance obligation has been settled and obtaining appropriate and sufficient audit evidence took significant audit effort.
