Condor, I think there is a small but important distinction getting blurred here, and it is worth clarifying for accuracy.
Yes, AABB does check the box in its OTC disclosures stating that its financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. That representation appears consistently in recent quarterly and annual filings, including the September 30, 2025 disclosure.
However, checking the GAAP box does not provide shareholders with assurance. It simply states the accounting framework management claims to be using. The financials are explicitly marked unaudited, prepared internally by management, and there is no independent auditor listed. GAAP is a rule set, not verification. An audit is what provides external assurance.
More importantly, there are multiple areas where the application of GAAP appears weak or inconsistent in practice:
• Large asset balances appear abruptly with no third party valuation support, including the $23.5M Mining Recovery Technology System IP and round number equity investments, without disclosed valuation methodology or impairment analysis.
• Revenue and inventory treatment lacks required disclosures. Items such as “mineral production retained” are deducted without inventory rollforwards, cost flow assumptions, or lower of cost or net realizable value analysis.
• Share based transactions for debt settlement, services, and technology acquisitions are often recorded at arbitrary or par values, with no clear fair value determination at the transaction date.
• Gains and losses on asset sales and debt settlements do not always reconcile cleanly with balance sheet changes, and prior impairment history is absent.
None of this is illegal for an OTC Pink issuer. But it does mean that checking the GAAP box is not the same as demonstrating rigorous GAAP compliance, and it certainly is not the same as providing assurance to shareholders.
So the accurate framing is this:
AABB states that it uses GAAP, but the financials are unaudited, management prepared, and contain multiple areas where GAAP application is questionable or insufficiently disclosed. Investors are therefore relying entirely on management representations.
That distinction is critical when evaluating credibility, regardless of whether one is bullish or bearish. Hope this helps clarify that.
