"When we released our preliminary results, we could confirm the strategic wins but not all of the final numbers for the year ended December 31, 2025. Now that our audit is complete, the full picture is clear and it validates what we said in the preliminary release," said Terrance Mendez, Chief Executive Officer. "We eliminated $18 million of our debt, returned stockholders' equity to positive $8.2 million from a stockholders' deficit of $12.3 million, and we ended the year with $6.8 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Mr. Mendez continued, "Loan program income increased 70% sequentially in the fourth quarter, and total revenue grew 12% from Q3 2025 to Q4 2025 while operating expenses declined 10% (after excluding a success-based employee bonus). This is the operating leverage inflection we have been building toward. We've also expanded beyond core banking and lending through the launch of insurance, payments, and consulting solutions, because we believe the most durable cannabis fintech platform is one that serves operators across their entire financial lifecycle."

"With a clean balance sheet, a financial institution agreement extended through 2031 at nearly double our prior share of loan program income, and new revenue lines, we enter 2026 in a fundamentally different financial position than we have been in at any point in our recent history."

***Earnings Before Interest Taxes Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA***

 ****

"EBITDA" is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization. "Adjusted EBITDA" is further adjusted to exclude non-cash, unusual, and infrequent items that management does not consider reflective of the Company's core operating performance.

We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because management uses these measures to evaluate operating performance, develop forward-looking operating plans, and make strategic decisions regarding resource allocation. We believe these measures provide useful supplemental information to investors evaluating our results in the same manner as management.

These measures have material limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our GAAP results. Specifically, although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the underlying assets may require future replacement and neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA reflects the associated capital expenditure requirements. In addition, neither measure reflects changes in working capital needs or tax payments that may reduce cash available to the Company. Accordingly, these measures should be considered alongside net income (loss) and other GAAP results.

A reconciliation of net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:
