**HeartCore Reports Financial Results for Third Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025**

*Under US GAAP (ASC 205-20), the Company must reclassify the disposed subsidiary, HeartCore Co., Ltd., as discontinued operations. This removes its results from continuing operations in the financial statements.*

**NEW YORK and TOKYO, November 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – HeartCore Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq: HTCR) ("HeartCore" or the "Company"),** an IPO consulting services company based in Tokyo, reported financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

**Third Quarter 2025 and Recent Operational & Financial Highlights**

● <u>Divested</u> software business subsidiary, HeartCore Co., Ltd ("HeartCore Japan")

● <u>Authorized</u> one-time distribution payment to stockholders

● <u>Announced</u> Go IPO client, rYojbaba Co., Ltd. began trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market

● <u>Signed</u> 16<sup>th</sup> Go IPO contract

**Management Commentary**

"This past month, we made the strategic and transformative decision to divest our software business subsidiary, HeartCore Japan, in an all-cash transaction, effectively making a full pivot into our Go IPO business," said Company CEO Sumitaka Kanno. "We believe this move positions HeartCore for long-term, sustainable success by sharpening our focus on a more profitable business in Go IPO. In parallel with this transaction, we also implemented meaningful expense reductions that will help lower operating costs going forward. A portion of the divestiture proceeds was used towards the one-time distribution payment, which was paid out yesterday. We are also continuing to assess all strategic alternatives to divest our subsidiary, Sigmaways. We believe this move will support our bottom-line performance going forward and further accelerate our shift towards the IPO consulting space.

"In recent months, we signed our 16<sup>th</sup> Go IPO client , saw one client successfully begin trading, and anticipate another will commence trading soon. Additionally, following our Go IPO Korea seminar, we have been in discussion with several prospective Korean clients which we hope to materialize in the near future. Demand from Japan also remains strong, and we believe we are on the precipice of engaging additional potential clients in the next few months. This full transition into our Go IPO business now allows us to dedicate more time and resources to its growth, and with a strong pipeline, we look forward to continued expansion of our IPO consulting business in Japan and Korea."

**Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results**

Revenues were $3.0 million, compared to $16.2 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to the signature warrant revenue of $13 million from one large GO IPO deal in the prior period, and no comparable revenue in the current period.

Gross profit was $1.5 million, compared to $14.0 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in the gross profit from GO IPO services.

![](ex99-1_004.jpg)

Operating expenses decreased to $1.5 million, compared to $1.7 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily cut down of various operating expenses to save cash flows.

Net income was $0.4 million compared to a net income of $10.8 million in the same period last year.

Adjusted EBITDA was $0.5 million, compared to $12.0 million in the same period last year.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1.5 million, compared to $2.0 million on December 31, 2024. On a pro forma basis, as of November 18, 2025, the Company has approximately $2.5 million of cash and cash equivalents, after the one-time payment to stockholders.

**Nine Months 2025 Financial Results**

Revenues were $7.1 million, compared to $21.3 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to the signature warrant revenue of $13M from one large GO IPO deal in the prior period, and no comparable revenue in the current period.

Gross profit was $2.6 million, compared to $15.1 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in the gross profit from GO IPO services.

Operating expenses decreased to $4.5 million, compared to $5.5 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in general and administrative, selling, and research and development expenses.

Net loss was $1.7 million compared to a net income of $7.1 million in the same period last year.

Adjusted EBITDA was $(0.6) million, compared to $10.4 million in the same period last year.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

This document includes references to adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. For the purposes of this presentation, adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting net loss to exclude depreciation and amortization, changes in fair value of investments in marketable securities, changes in fair value of investment in warrants, interest income, and interest expenses.

This measure is presented as supplemental information and is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP").

![](ex99-1_004.jpg)

Management believes that adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors by highlighting the Company's core operational performance, excluding non-cash and non-recurring items. However, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
