OneMeta Inc.
(Formerly OneMeta AI)
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of OneMeta Inc. (“we”, “our”, “OneMeta” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s fiscal 2024 financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the financial statements for fiscal 2024, have been omitted.
OneMeta was originally incorporated as Promotions on Wheels Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation, on July 3, 2006. On December 26, 2008, the name of the Company was changed to Blindspot Alert, Inc. On September 11, 2009, the Company’s name was changed to WebSafety, Inc. On March 23, 2021, the Company’s name was changed to VeriDetx Corp. On June 8, 2021, the Company’s name was changed to WebSafety, Inc. On July 10, 2022, the Company’s name was changed to OneMeta AI. On June 20, 2023, the Company’s name was changed to OneMeta Inc.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates in the accompanying financial statements involving the valuation of stock-based compensation and long-term customer contracts.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts
receivable are comprised of unsecured amounts due from customers. The Company carries its accounts receivable at their face amounts less
an allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is recognized based on management’s estimate of likely losses per year,
past experience, review of customer profiles and the aging of receivable balances. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there
was $
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are valued at cost. Additions are capitalized and maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
Estimated | ||
Category | Useful Lives | |
Building and improvements |
7 |
Related Parties
The Company follows ASC 850, “Related Party Disclosures,” for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and accounts payable. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their respective fair values as they are short-term in nature or carry interest rates that approximate market rates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts With Customers, which was adopted on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method, with no impact to the Company’s comparative financial statements. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring those goods or services. Revenue is recognized based on the following five step model:
● | Identification of the contract with a customer |
● | Identification of the performance obligations in the contract |
● | Determination of the transaction price |
● | Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract |
● | Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation |
Subscription and license
We enter into revenue arrangements in which a customer may purchase a combination of subscriptions, consulting services, training and education. Fully hosted subscription services (“SaaS”) allow customers to access hosted software during the contractual term without taking possession of the software.
We recognize revenue ratably over the contractual service term for hosted services that are priced based on a committed number of transactions where the delivery and consumption of the benefit of the services occur evenly over time, beginning on the date the services associated with the committed transactions are first made available to the customer and continuing through the end of the contractual service term. Over-usage fees and fees based on the actual number of transactions are billed in accordance with contract terms as these fees are incurred and are included in the transaction price of an arrangement as variable consideration. Revenue based on per-minute or per-word basis, where invoicing is aligned to the pattern of performance, customer benefit and consumption, are typically accounted for utilizing the “as-invoiced” practical expedient. Revenue for subscriptions sold as a fee per period is recognized ratably over the contractual term as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of the underlying service.
Licenses for software may be purchased as a subscription for a fixed period of time or based on usage. Revenue from licenses is recognized at the point in time the software is available to the customer, provided all other revenue recognition criteria are met, and classified as revenue on our Statements of Operations. Our interpretation or translation services fees are based on a per-minute or per-word basis, are typically accounted for utilizing the “as-invoiced” practical expedient.
Our services are comprised primarily of fees related to training, and education for certain licenses that are recognized at a point in time. Training and education revenues are recognized as the services are performed.

OEM solution
The Company provide Over-the-phone, consecutive AI Translation Service (“VerbumCall SDK”) that uses websocket connections to provide an AI service designed to facilitate effortless communication across languages within the native UX. This product leverages advanced AI capabilities to provide consecutive audio translation, ensuring that both patrons and agents experience conversations without the need for additional steps or complicated setups.
The Company has multiple performance obligations in the customer contract with inContact. The Company is to generate revenue through the following sources: sale of OEM Solution software and professional services, which consist of implementation, configuration, custom development, optimization, and training services of the OEM Solution, and technical support service.
Disaggregation of revenues
The Company disaggregates revenue between subscription and license revenue and professional service revenue.

Deferred Revenue
Deferred
revenue includes service and support contracts and represents the undelivered performance obligation of agreements that are typically
for one year or less. On October 8, 2024, the Company entered into an OEM Agreement to provide OEM Solutions hosting consisting of over-the-phone
consecutive AI language translation solutions. Upon execution of the agreement, the Company received $
Stock-Based Compensation
All stock-based awards to employees and non-employee contractors, including any grants of stock and stock options, are measured at fair value at the grant date and recognized over the relevant vesting period in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 718. Stock based awards to non-employees are recognized as a selling, general and administrative expense over the period of performance. Such awards are measured at fair value at the date of grant. In addition, for awards that vest immediately, the awards are measured at fair value and recognized in full at the grant date.
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. In periods when losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, the number of weighted average shares outstanding, as well as the amount of net loss per share are presented for basic and diluted per share calculations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, reflected in the accompanying statement of operations.

Segments Reporting
The Company manages its operations as a single segment for the purpose of assessing performance and making operating decisions. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is its executive management committee. The CODM allocates resources and evaluates the performance of the Company using information about combined net income from operations. All significant operating decisions are based upon an analysis of the Company as one operating segment, which is the same as its reporting segment.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosure.” The ASU updates reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through requiring enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance. The amendments do not change how segments are determined, aggregated, or how thresholds are applied to determine reportable segments. We adopted ASU No. 2023-07 during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Note 3. Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Where the anticipated offering is unsuccessful, we expect to use proceeds from the issuance of equity, debt financings, or other capital transactions to fund our operations and satisfy our liquidity requirements. Management is seeking to obtain additional funds by equity financing and or related party advances, however, there is no assurance of additional funding being available.

● | Verbum. Verbum supports real time web-based conversations, discussions, meetings, and online chats in 140 languages, enabling fluent and effective communication among individuals that do not speak the same language. This product is distributed through our online platform, direct sales to businesses and organizations, and we are attempting to develop partnerships with existing video conferencing providers. The competitive position is against other video conferencing providers that also offer live interpretation services, such as Microsoft Teams, Zoom and Google Meet. We believe our main competitors are organizations that supply human interpreters which can be ten times more expensive than our Verbum product. The Verbum product is available to customers at a wholesale price of $0.30 to $0.36 per minute, as compared to human interpreters, which can range from $45.00 to $150.00 per hour, or $1.25 to $3.00 per minute.(1) The primary market for our Verbum product is for organizations or individuals that require real-time interpretation services. |

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures for our company. Consequently, our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act as of March 31, 2025. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on the evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a more than remote possibility that a misstatement of our company’s annual or interim financial statements could occur. In its assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, we determined that there were control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses which are indicative of many small companies with small staff, such as:
(1) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment;
(2) insufficient written policies and procedures for documenting all transactions with vendors;
(3) insufficient written policies and procedure for the approval, identification and reporting of related-party transactions;
(4) inadequate internal control procedures over financial reporting, resulting in non-reliance on previously issued financial statements; and
(5) inadequate written policies and procedures for documenting informal agreements.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).
