pressures and other factors, many of our various government customers exercise independent purchasing decisions. As a result of the concentration

The
Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure
controls and procedures. We must perform system and process evaluation and testing of our internal control over financial reporting to
allow management to report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act. In addition, we are required to have our independent registered public accounting firm attest to the effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting the later of (i) our second annual report on Form 10-K, or (ii) the first annual report on Form 10-K
following the date on which we are no longer an emerging growth company and no longer qualify as a smaller reporting company. Our compliance
with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could require that we incur substantial accounting expenseexpenses and expend significant management
efforts including the potential of hiring additional accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical
accounting knowledge. If we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner, or if we or our independent
registered public accounting firm identify deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting that are deemed to be material
weaknesses, the market price of our stock could decline and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory
authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources.

Revenues. Revenues were $22,402,188 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $26,350,819 for the same period in 2024, representing a decrease of $3,948,631 or 15%. The decrease was primarily attributable to a particularly challenging sales year in which VirTra faced significant external headwinds, including government shutdowns and a transition in federal leadership that resulted in notable reductions to Department of Defense related program funding. These factors were further compounded by the composition of our 2025 bookings, the majority of which originated from international customers operating under extended 6 to 12-month delivery timelines, thereby delaying revenue recognition and contributing to an increase in backlog and a year-over-year decline in revenue. Additionally, widespread delays in federal funding and grant disbursements affected numerous domestic departments, limiting their ability to initiate or complete purchases and reducing our opportunity to close and convert local sales during the period.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales were $7,199,562 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $6,938,304 for the same period in 2024, representing an increase of $261,258 or 4%. The year-over-year increase was primarily attributable to the completion of several content creation and engineering enhancement projects for existing products. This increase reflects the Company’s continued focus on delivering new content to customers on a recurring basis. These costs were not offset in the current period by expenditures related to the development of new projects, as they were in the prior year for the VXR, SVT, and VAMIS products, which would otherwise have been captured as work in progress.
Revenues. Revenues
were $26,350,819 for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $38,791,337 for the same period in 2023, representing a decrease
of $12,440,518 or 32%. The decrease was primarily the result of a challenging booking year in a continuing resolution environment
which started at the beginning of 2024. This delayed the signing of multiple contracts until Q3 and mainly Q4 2024, As a result, we
were unable to convert these bookings to revenue by the end of the year. Also contributing to the decrease was a particularly large
contract in 2023, for which revenues of approximately $7.1 million were recognized. This contract is ongoing, but only $2.8 million
of this contract was recognized in 2024.
Cost
of Sales. Cost of sales were $6,938,304 for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $11,378,264 for the same period in
2023, representing a decrease of $4,439,960 or 39%. The year-over-year decrease was due to lower revenues.

The
Company defines bookings as the total of newly signed contracts, awarded
RFP’s and purchase orders received in a defined time
period. The Company
received bookings totaling $12.2$7.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024.2025. This brings the total booking
bookings for the year
ended 20242025 to $29.6$26.7 million. The Company has made one change to the booking qualifications. WeAs havepreviously
disclosed, in 2024 we strengthened the language in the STEP contract Terms and Conditions to guarantee the agreement for the full
three-year term. This means
beginningchange inwas Q4 we had 8 STEP contracts with the full contract 3-year value recorded as bookings amountingdone to an additional $1.9 million.
This change also securessecure future revenue and lowerslower our risk of unsigned or cancelled contracts. SinceTherefore,
with thethis change was only made in Q4change, we
still estimate,believe there are $5.3$2.5 million in renewable STEP contract options still outstanding, and based on current
renewal ratesrates, the Company
believes 95% of those options will be exercised.
The
Company defines backlog as the accumulation of bookings from signed contracts and purchase orders
that are not started, or are uncompleted
performance objectives, and cannot be recognized as revenue until delivered in a future
quarter. The Company splits the
backlog into
three categories. The first is capital which includes sales of all the simulators, corresponding accessories, installs,
training custom
content and custom design work. The second and third are extended warranty agreements and STEP agreementsagreements, respectively, that are
deferred revenue recognized
on a straight-line basis over the life of each respective agreement. As of December 31, 2024,2025, the
Company’s backlog was $10.6$13.8 million
in Capital, $6.6$5.1 million in Service and $4.8$6.7 million in STEPSTEP, for a total of $22$25.6 million.
Management
estimates the majority of the new bookings received in the fourth quarter of 20242025 will be converted to revenue in 2025.2026. Management’s
estimate for the conversion of backlog is based on current contract delivery dates,dates; however, contract terms and installinstallation dates are subject
to modification and are routinely changed at the request of the customer or due to factors outside the Company’s control.
With
a new federal administration in place at the beginning of 2025, it is unknown what impact that will have on our bookings for 2025. Budget cuts have been discussed and we have seen some grants and other
federal funding frozen for most of the first quarter, but nothing definitive has occurred as of the date of this report.
The
Company only ships products when it has reasonable assurance that it will receive payment from the customer. When such assurance is
not not
available, the Company will require payment in advance. For customers other than United States governmental agencies, the
Company generally
requires advance deposits prior to shipment. The assessment of a customer’s creditworthiness is reliant on
management’s judgment
regarding such factors as previous payment history, credit rating, credit references and market
reputation. The Company has decided to
take a more conservative approach to the bad debt reserve by calculating a percentage of all
outstanding ARaccounts receivable and updating the reserve
quarterly based-onbased on the age of the accounts receivable.
Inventory
is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost being determined on the average cost method. Work in progress and finished
goods inventory includes an allocation for capitalized labor and overhead. Provision is made for obsolete, slow movingmoving, or defective
items items
where appropriate. This estimated valuation requires that management make certain judgments about the likelihood that specific
inventory inventory
items may have minimal or no realizable value in the future. These judgments are based on the current quantity of the item
on hand compared
to historical sales volumes, potential alternative uses of the products and the age of the inventory item.
Revenues
include sales of products and services and are in net of discounts. Product sales consist of simulators, upgrade components, scenarios,
scenario software, recoil kits, Threat-Fire® and other accessories. Services include installation, training, limited assurance-type
warranties, extended service-type warranty agreements, related support, customer content and design work.
In
reviewing our contracts, the identification of the performance obligations within the contracts, allocation of the transaction price
to the performance obligations and the point when performance obligations were satisfied required significant judgment. In identifying
the performance obligations, the Company considered whether the customer has a reasonable expectation that the Company will provide those
goods or services and would view those goods or services as part of the negotiated exchange. The Company believes that, generally, our
performance obligations are explicit in the contracts. The Company allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations based
on the relative standalone selling price basis. This required consideration and determination of the stand-alone selling price for each
distinct good or service using various sources of information. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue only when it satisfies a
performance obligation by transferring the good or service to the customer. To determine when the performance obligation had been transferred
to the customer, the Company consideredconsiders control of the performance obligation transferred once the customer hadhas the right and ability
to direct the use of the product or service and the customer obtainedobtains substantially all the remaining benefit from the products and services.

The decrease was primarily the result of delayed revenue recognition related to temporary customer delivery deferrals. Importantly, backlog remains strong, supporting future revenue conversion as deliveries resume. Additionally, a larger portion of bookings came in at the end of the quarter, which resulted in revenue conversion of these bookings in the third quarter at the earliest. Revenue continues to be affected by our concentration in government-funded customers, including international customers whose purchases are funded through U.S. federal programs. The end of the second quarter was the first time the Company began to see funding start to open up, with a few large orders coming in from our long-term customers that finally had funds released.
Revenues.
Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $3,474,146, compared
to $7,160,247 for the same period in 2025, representing a decrease of $3,686,101, or 51%. The decrease was primarily driven by a delay
in the conversion of backlog to revenue, as several customers associated with third- and fourth-quarter 2025 bookings were unable to accept
delivery during the first quarter of 2026. Management expects a significant portion of the December 31, 2025 backlog to convert to revenue
over the remainder of fiscal year 2026. In addition, revenue was adversely impacted by the Company’s concentration in government-funded
customers, including international customers whose purchases are funded through U.S. federal programs. Timing and funding uncertainties
associated with government appropriations contributed to lower shipment volumes during the quarter.

The
Company defines bookings as the total of newly signed contracts, awarded RFP’s and purchase orders received in a defined time
period. The Company received bookings totaling $3.8$5.5 million for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and bookings totaling $9.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026. The Company has made one
change to the booking qualifications. As previously disclosed, in 2024 we strengthened the language in the STEP contract Terms and
Conditions to better ensure the agreement remains in effect for the full three-year term. This change was done to secure future
revenue and lower our risk of unsigned or cancelled contracts. Therefore, with this change, we believe there are $2.1$1.7 million in
renewable STEP contract options still outstanding, and based on current renewal rates, the Company believes 95% of those options
will be exercised.
The
Company defines backlog as the accumulation of bookings from signed contracts and purchase orders that are not started, or have
uncompleted performance objectives, and cannot be recognized as revenue until delivered in a future quarter. The Company splits the
backlog into three categories. The first is capital, which includes sales of all the simulators, corresponding accessories,
installs, training custom content and custom design work. The second and third are extended warranty agreements and STEP agreements
that are deferred revenue recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of each respective agreement. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, the
Company’s backlog was $13.2 million in Capital, $4.4$3.8 million in Service and $7.6$7.9 million in STEP, for a total of $25.2
$24.9 million. This is a slight decrease in backlog from December 31,202531, 2025 which sat at $13.8 million in Capital, $5.1 million in Service
and $6.7 million in STEP, for a total of $25.6 million Management
estimates that most new capital bookings received in the firstsecond quarter of 2026 will be converted to revenue in 2026. Management recognizes
that there are a percentage of capital contracts that will extend into 2027 by request of the customers. Management’s estimate
for the conversion of backlog is based on current contract delivery dates; however, contract terms and install dates are subject to modification
and are routinely changed at the request of the customer or due to factors outside the Company’s control.
Our
discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our unaudited financial statements, which have
been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our unaudited financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments
that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to areas that require a significant level of judgment or are
otherwise subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Significant accounting estimates in these financial statements include valuation
assumptions for share-based payments, allowance for doubtful accounts and notes receivable, inventory reserves, accrual for warranty
reserves, the carrying value of long-lived assets, income tax valuation allowances, the carrying value of cost basis investments, and
the allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in our contracts with customers. We base our estimates on historical
experience, our observance of trends in particular areas, and information or valuations and various other assumptions that we believe
to be reasonable under the circumstances and which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities
that may not be readily apparent from other sources. Actual amounts could differ significantly from amounts previously estimated. For
a discussion of our critical accounting policies, refer to Part I, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Management believes
that there have been no changes in our critical accounting policies during the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026.
As
of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we did 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. The term “off-balance sheet arrangement” generally means any transaction,
agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising
under a guaranteed contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to
such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.
