Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this offering. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis, including information regarding the strategy and plans for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should review the "Risk Factors" section for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.

Overview

Our self developed AI uses computer vision to analyze athlete's movement and provide feedback in real time. Currently our app analyses golfers' golf swings and gives real-time swing analysis and personalized feedback on how to improve on over 30 points of performance. 

In 5 years, we would like to expand Sparrow into all other sports and fields of human movement. That includes: Basketball, Soccer, Hockey, Football, Baseball, etc. We also are working to being a foundation for Growing the Game that will help democratize sports instruction by providing quality coaching at low to no cost to youth who may not otherwise have access to quality instruction. These are forward looking projections and are not guaranteed.

Given the Company’s limited operating history, the Company cannot reliably estimate how much revenue it will receive in the future, if any.

Liquidity & Capital Resources

To-date, the company has been financed with $58,005 in debt and $1,836,051 in SAFEs.

After the conclusion of this Offering, should we hit our minimum funding target, our projected runway is 18 months before we need to raise further capital.

We plan to use the proceeds as set forth in this Form C under "Use of Funds". We don’t have any other sources of capital in the immediate future.

We will likely require additional financing in excess of the proceeds from the Offering in order to perform operations over the lifetime of the Company. We plan to raise capital in 18 months. Except as otherwise described in this Form C, we do not have additional sources of capital other than the proceeds from the offering. Because of the complexities and uncertainties in establishing a new business strategy, it is not possible to adequately project whether the proceeds of this offering will be sufficient to enable us to implement our strategy. This complexity and uncertainty will be increased if less than the maximum amount of securities offered in this offering is sold. The Company intends to raise additional capital in the future from investors. Although capital may be available for early-stage companies, there is no guarantee that the Company will receive any investments from investors.

Runway & Short/Mid Term Expenses

Sparrow Vision, Inc. cash in hand is $542,548.70, as of July 2021. Over the last three months, revenues have averaged $0/month, cost of goods sold has averaged $0/month, and operational expenses have averaged $60,000/month, for an average burn rate of $60,000 per month. Our intent is to be profitable in 6 months.

Since the date our financials cover, there have been no material changes to our financials or operations. 

In the next 3-6 months, we intend to launch our product and expect to achieve a monthly revenue run rate of $100-$300k 6 months after launching with accompanying monthly expenses of $150k per month. Our expenses will be solely related to research & development and marketing our product as we move to launch.

We expect expenses to increase as the company grows, but expect to achieve profitability within 24 months, assuming we can raise approximately $2M. These are forward looking projections and are not guaranteed.

In terms of securing additional sources of capital, the management team has prior experience raising funds from individual investors, angel groups, and venture capitalists. Additionally, management team has secured other sources of capital (debt, loans, grants, etc.) for their previous startup companies. 

Risks

1

Sales and revenue projections are based on hypothetical marketing estimates. However, the company may not be able to successfully maintain, promote and grow the brand through its marketing and communication strategies. Increasing the number of customers while establishing brand awareness and loyalty may prove difficult in the hyper competitive marketplace. Inability to successfully market the company and increase its customer base will adversely impact the company's operations and inhibit success while posing a risk to shareholder investment.

2

The company is susceptible to key person risk. The success of the company will largely be dependent upon the experience and skill of its board of directors, executive officers and tenured employees. The company can make no guarantees that key individuals necessary for successful operation of the business objectives will continue to be employed by the company for any defined period of time. Loss of any key persons for any reason could cause irreparable harm to the company’s ability to deliver value to shareholders, meet business objectives, and could cause the company and your investment to suffer.

3

The company's intellectual property is currently patent pending. Any patents or intellectual property protections obtained by the company may be challenged or circumvented. Intellectual property enforcement may be time consuming and cost intensive while simultaneously diverting the company's attention away from successfully executing its business plan.
