**CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2025 (the "Quarterly Report") contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). These statements relate to future events including, without limitation, our ability to raise capital, our operational and strategic initiatives or our future financial performance. We have attempted to identify forward-looking statements by using terminology such as "anticipates," "believes," "expects," "can," "continue," "could," "estimates," "expects," "intends," "may," "plans," "potential," "predict," "should" or "will" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions; uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels or activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Our expectations are as of the date this Quarterly Report is filed, and we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date this Quarterly Report is filed to confirm these statements to actual results, unless required by law.

You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed in "Risk Factors," in Part II, Item 1A of this Report as well as information provided elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as amended (the "Annual Report"), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on April 15, 2025. You should carefully consider that information before you make an investment decision.

These and other factors discussed above could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in the estimates made by any independent parties and by us.

**OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION**

Unless the context otherwise indicates, when used in this Quarterly Report, the terms "Eightco," "we," "us," "our," the "Company" and similar terms refer to Eightco Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation, and all of our consolidated subsidiaries and variable interest entities.

**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**(Unaudited)**

**1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION**

As used herein, "Eightco," "we," "us," "our," and the "Company" refer to Eightco Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company was originally incorporated on September 21, 2021 under the laws of the State of Nevada and converted to a Delaware corporation on March 9, 2022 pursuant to a plan of conversion with its former parent, Vinco Ventures, Inc. ("Vinco" or the "Former Parent").

*Operating Structure and Recent Changes*

Historically, the Company operated multiple business lines, including:

● Forever 8 Inventory Cash Flow Solutions ("Forever 8")

● Corrugated Packaging Business, operated through Ferguson Containers, Inc.

● Web3 operations, including BTC mining hardware sales and NFT development

The Company has since exited its non-core operations. Forever 8 now represents the Company's sole operating business.

Forever 8, acquired on October 1, 2022, provides inventory funding and purchasing services to e-commerce retailers and remains the Company's core operating platform.

On April 7, 2025, the Company completed the sale of the assets comprising its Corrugated Packaging Business. All operations related to this business ceased as of that date. The Company previously completed its wind-down of Web3 and BTC mining hardware sales activities and does not intend to resume revenue-generating operations in that area.

*Adoption of Digital Asset Treasury Strategy*

On September 8, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors approved a Digital Asset Treasury ("DAT") Strategy under which the Company deploys a portion of its excess liquidity, operating cash flows, and capital from financing activities into digital assets as part of its long-term capital allocation framework.

Under this strategy, the Company holds various digital assets, including Worldcoin (WLD and WCWLD), Ethereum (ETH), and USD denominated stablecoins for treasury, liquidity management, and strategic investment purposes. The Company does not currently generate revenue from its digital asset holdings. Digital assets are custodied with institutional third-party providers, including Kraken, Coinbase, and FalconX.

The Company adopted ASU 2023-08 effective January 1, 2025. Eligible digital assets are measured at fair value with changes recognized in net income.

*Corporate Organization*

As of September 30, 2025, Eightco had the following wholly-owned subsidiaries:

● Forever 8 Fund LLC

● Ferguson Containers, Inc. (inactive following divestiture)

● BlockHiro, LLC

● Orb Subsidiary One, LLC, formed in September 2025

Forever 8's wholly owned foreign subsidiaries:

● Forever 8 UK, Ltd.

● Forever 8 Fund EU Holdings BV

In addition, the Company owns 51% of CW Machines, LLC, which continues to be consolidated under the voting interest entity model. Under that model, control is presumed based on majority voting interests unless noncontrolling shareholders possess substantive participating rights.

*Separation from Former Parent*

On June 30, 2022, the Company completed its previously announced separation from Vinco (the "Separation"). Prior to the Separation, Vinco contributed the assets and legal entities comprising the Company's historical businesses to Eightco. Following the Separation, the Company became an independent, publicly traded company.

*Common Control Transactions*

On March 29, 2022, the Former Parent transferred ownership of Ferguson Containers to the Company in a transaction between entities under common control. As a result, the consolidated financial statements reflect Ferguson Containers and other contributed entities as if they had been owned by the Company for all periods presented. Assets and liabilities were recorded at historical carrying values, and equity reflects the equity of Eightco.

*Basis of Presentation*.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements included herein contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position and the results of its operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 may not be indicative of results for the full year. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes to those statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 included in the Annual Report.

The Company is an emerging growth company as the term is used in The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, enacted on April 5, 2012 and has elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements.

**EIGHTCO HOLDINGS INC.**

**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**(Unaudited)**

**2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

*Reverse Stock Split:* On August 8, 2024, the Company filed an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effectuate a 1-for-5 reverse stock split of its Common Stock (the "2024 Reverse Stock Split"). All share, equity award, and per share amounts contained in the consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Splits for all prior periods presented.

*Use of Estimates.* The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company's significant estimates used in these condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, fair value of warrants, revenue recognition and the determination of the economic useful life of depreciable property and equipment. Certain of the Company's estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company and general economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that these external factors could have an effect on the Company's estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates.

*Business Combinations*. For business combinations that meet the accounting definition of a business, the Company determines and allocates the purchase price of an acquired company to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and noncontrolling interest, if applicable, as of the date of acquisition at fair value. Fair value may be estimated using comparable market data, a discounted cash flow method, or a combination of the two. In the discounted cash flow method, estimated future cash flows are based on management's expectations for the future. Revenues and costs of the acquired companies are included in the Company's operating results from the date of acquisition. The Company uses its best estimates and assumptions as part of the purchase price allocation process to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, and these estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement during the measurement period not to exceed one year from the acquisition date. As a result, any adjustment identified subsequent to the measurement period is included in operating results in the period in which the amount is determined.

*Discontinued Operations.* A component of an entity that is disposed of by sale or abandonment is reported as discontinued operations if the transaction represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. The results of discontinued operations are aggregated and presented separately in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Assets and liabilities of the discontinued operations are aggregated and reported separately as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, including the comparative prior year period. Cash flows are reflected as cash flows from discontinued operations within the Company's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for each period presented.

*Cash and Cash Equivalents*. The Company considers all highly liquid, short-term investments with original maturities of nine months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

*Digital Assets.* Digital assets primarily consist of cryptocurrencies and other crypto-tokens held for treasury, investment, or operational purposes. Effective January 1, 2025, the Company adopted ASU 2023-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60). Under this guidance, eligible crypto assets are measured at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in net income in the period in which they occur. Upon adoption, historical impairment-only accounting ceased. Digital assets are presented on the face of the condensed consolidated balance sheets as "Digital assets, at fair value." Assets expected to be converted into cash or otherwise used to fund operations within twelve months are classified as current assets; all other digital assets are classified as noncurrent assets. The Company determines fair value using quoted prices in its principal market at the measurement time. Digital assets with quoted prices in active markets are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. When observable market inputs other than quoted prices are used (such as certain wrapped tokens, restricted tokens, or stablecoins whose value is not derived solely from exchange-traded prices), such assets are classified as Level 2. The Company did not classify any digital assets as Level 3 during the periods presented. Realized and unrealized gains and losses from changes in the fair value of digital assets are recorded within "(Loss) income from change in fair value of digital assets" in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Realized gains and losses on disposals are determined using the specific identification method. Digital assets are held with third-party custodians and institutional trading counterparties. These arrangements expose the Company to counterparty, concentration, and safeguarding risks, including technological, operational, and cyber-security risks. The Company does not hold digital assets on behalf of third parties and therefore does not apply the guidance in SAB 121. As of the periods presented, the Company does not stake, lend, or pledge its digital assets, and there are no digital-asset collateral or borrowing arrangements outstanding.

*Accounts Receivable.* Accounts receivable are carried at their contractual amounts, less an estimated allowance for credit losses. Management estimates the allowance for credit losses using a loss-rate approach based on historical loss information, adjusted for management's expectations about current and future economic conditions, as the basis to determine expected credit losses. Management exercises significant judgment in determining expected credit losses. Key inputs include macroeconomic factors, industry trends, the creditworthiness of counterparties, historical experience, the financial conditions of the customers, and the amount and age of past due accounts. Management believes that the composition of receivables at year-end is consistent with historical conditions as credit terms and practices and the client base has not changed significantly. Receivables are considered past due if full payment is not received by the contractual due date. Past due accounts are generally written off against the allowance for credit losses only after all collection attempts have been exhausted. The allowance for credit losses was $0 and $60,000 as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 the Company had a write-down of accounts receivable of $680,000 and $680,000, respectively.

*Inventories*. Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company reduces the carrying value of inventories for those items that are potentially excess, obsolete, or slow moving based on changes in customer demand, technology developments, or other economic factors.

*Property and Equipment.* Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, which is recorded commencing at the in-service date using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows: 3 to 5 years for office equipment, 5 to 7 years for furniture and fixtures, 6 to 10 years for machinery and equipment, 10 to 15 years for building improvements, 5 years for software, 5 years for molds, 5 to 7 years for vehicles and 40 years for buildings. When fixed assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the statements of comprehensive loss for the respective period. Minor additions and repairs are expensed in the period incurred. Major additions and repairs which extend the useful life of existing assets are capitalized and depreciated using the straight-line method over their remaining estimated useful lives.

**2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)**

*Intangible Assets and Long-lived Assets.* The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets using undiscounted cash flows. If an asset is found to be impaired, the amount recognized for impairment is equal to the difference between the carrying value and the asset's fair value. We record intangible assets based on their fair value on the date of acquisition. Intangible assets include the cost of developed technology, customer relationships, trademarks and tradenames. Intangible assets are amortized utilizing the straight-line method over their remaining economic useful lives, as follows: 10 years for developed technology, 7 years for customer relationships and 7 years for trademarks and tradenames. The Company reviews long-lived assets and intangible assets for potential impairment annually and when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In the event the expected undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the excess of the asset's carrying value over its fair value. If an asset is determined to be impaired, the loss is measured based on quoted market prices in active markets, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, the estimate of fair value is based on various valuation techniques, including a discounted value of estimated future cash flows. In the event that management decides to no longer allocate resources to an asset, an impairment loss equal to the remaining carrying value of the asset is recorded. The Company did not record any impairment charges related to intangibles assets or long-lived assets during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

*Goodwill.* Goodwill is recorded for the difference between the fair value of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired. The Company performs an impairment assessment of goodwill on an annual basis as of December 31st, or whenever impairment indicators exist. In the absence of any impairment indicators, goodwill is assessed for impairment during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. Judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on market conditions and operational performance of the business. The Company may assess our goodwill for impairment initially using a qualitative approach to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of these assets is greater than their carrying value. When performing a qualitative test, the Company assesses various factors including industry and market conditions, macroeconomic conditions and performance of our businesses. If the results of the qualitative assessment indicate that it is more likely than not that the goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are impaired, a quantitative impairment analysis would be performed to determine if impairment is required. The Company may also elect to perform a quantitative analysis of goodwill initially rather than using a qualitative approach. The impairment testing for goodwill is performed at the reporting unit level. The valuation methods used in the quantitative fair value assessment, discounted cash flow and market multiples method, requires our management to make certain assumptions and estimates regarding certain industry trends and future profitability of the Company's reporting units. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds the related carrying value, the reporting unit's goodwill is considered not to be impaired and no further testing is performed. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recorded for the difference. The valuation of goodwill is affected by, among other things, the Company's business plan for the future and estimated results of future operations. Future events could cause the Company to conclude that impairment indicators exist, and, therefore, that goodwill may be impaired.

*Contingent Liabilities.* The Company, from time to time, may be involved in certain legal proceedings. Based upon consultation with outside counsel handling its defense in these matters and the Company's analysis of potential outcomes, if the Company determines that a loss arising from such matters is probable and can be reasonably estimated, an estimate of the contingent liability is recorded in its condensed consolidated financial statements. If only a range of estimated loss can be determined, an amount within the range that, based on estimates, assumptions and judgments, reflects the most likely outcome, is recorded as a contingent liability in the condensed consolidated financial statements. In situations where none of the estimates within the estimated range is a better estimate of probable loss than any other amount, the Company records the low end of the range. Any such accrual would be charged to expense in the appropriate period. Litigation expenses for these types of contingencies are recognized in the period in which the litigation services were provided.

**2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)**

*Revenue Recognition.* In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies performance obligations, by transferring promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for fulfilling those performance obligations. Revenue for product sales is recognized upon receipt by the customer. There are no contract assets or contract liabilities and therefore no unsatisfied performance obligations. One customer represented 90% and 86% of total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.

*Disaggregation of Revenue.* The Company's primary revenue stream includes the sale of consumer goods through its inventory management solutions business. The revenue stream for discontinued operations primarily include the sale of corrugated packaging materials. There are no other material operations that were separately disaggregated for segment purposes.

*Cost of Revenues.* Cost of revenues includes freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, depreciation and inspection costs.

*Comprehensive income*. The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 220 in reporting comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized other comprehensive gain (loss) for foreign currency translation of $(6,452) and $546,937, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized other comprehensive gain (loss) for foreign currency translation of $157,465 and $(25,349), respectively.

*Foreign Currency Transactions and Translation.* Eightco's functional currency is the United States Dollar ("USD") and the Forever 8 subsidiaries have functional currencies in Euro ("EUR"), British Pound Sterling ("GBP"), and USD.

For the purpose of presenting these condensed consolidated financial statements, the reporting currency is USD. Forever 8 assets and liabilities are expressed in USDs at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date, equity accounts are translated at historical rates, and income and expense items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate during the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under accumulated other comprehensive income in the stockholders' equity section of the balance sheets.

Transactions in currencies other than the entity's functional currency are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the date of the transaction. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at the end of the reporting periods. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items and on translation of monetary items at period-end are included in statement of comprehensive loss.

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, approximately 86% of consolidated revenues were derived from customers located in Europe and denominated primarily in Euros. As a result, the Company is exposed to a concentration of foreign currency risk, and significant fluctuations in the EUR or GBP relative to the USD could materially impact reported revenues and results of operations.

Exchange rates used for the translations are as follows:

**2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)**

*Earnings Per Share.* The Company follows ASC 260 when reporting Earnings Per Share ("EPS") resulting in the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic net (loss) income per common share is computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number vested of common shares, plus the net impact of common shares (computed using the treasury stock method), if dilutive, resulting from the exercise of dilutive securities. In periods when losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company had net losses and therefore excluded the dilutive effect of certain securities in its diluted EPS calculation. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had net income and therefore included the dilutive effect of certain securities in its diluted EPS calculation.

The following is a reconciliation of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding used in calculating the basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company excluded the common stock equivalents summarized below, which entitle the holders thereof to ultimately acquire shares of common stock, from its calculation of earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

**2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)**

*Deferred Financing Costs.* Deferred financing costs include debt discounts and debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability and are presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the debt liability. Amortization of deferred financing costs are included as a component of interest expense. Deferred financing costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the recognized debt liability which approximates the effective interest method.

*Income Taxes.* The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of the FASB ASC Topic 740 "Income Taxes" ("ASC Topic 740"). The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of items that have been included or excluded in the condensed consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their respective financial reporting amounts ("temporary differences") at enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The Company utilizes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Management has evaluated and concluded that there were no material uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2025. The Company does not expect any significant changes in its unrecognized tax benefits within twelve months of the reporting date. The Company's policy is to classify assessments, if any, for tax related interest as interest expense and penalties as general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The Company is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.

*Fair Value Measurements.* The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" ("ASC 820") which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable (for example, cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

Effective January 1, 2025, the Company adopted ASU 2023-08, which requires eligible digital assets to be measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings each reporting period. Digital assets that trade in active markets and have readily determinable fair values, including Worldcoin (WLD and WCWLD), Ethereum (ETH), and U.S. dollar-denominated stablecoins, are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Digital assets are valued based on quoted market prices obtained from principal market exchanges where the assets are actively traded.

The Company's financial instruments that are not measured at fair value, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and short-term borrowings, approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities.

No transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 occurred during the periods presented.

*Concentration of Credit Risks.* Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash equivalents, digital assets, and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash balances and digital asset custodial accounts with multiple institutional-grade financial institutions and digital asset custodians, including Kraken, FalconX, and Coinbase. Balances held with digital asset custodians are not federally insured. Balances held with institutional-grade financial institutions may exceed federally insured limits or similar protections. The Company manages custodial risk through the use of multiple counterparties, ongoing evaluation of each custodian's financial stability, and review of their security and safekeeping practices. The Company has not experienced any losses on deposits or digital asset holdings. With respect to trade receivables, the Company performs ongoing evaluations of customer credit worthiness and does not require collateral. As of September 30, 2025, two customers represented approximately 51% and 29% of total accounts receivable, respectively. The Company maintains an allowance for expected credit losses based on historical experience and forward-looking information.

*Leases.* The Company accounts for leases under ASC 842, Leases. Upon adoption on January 1, 2022, the Company recognized right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases based on the present value of future lease payments. The adoption did not materially impact the Company's balance sheet or results of operations. The Company does not have any finance leases. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Short-term leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the balance sheet.

**2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)**

*Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Adopted.* In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this Update improve financial reporting by requiring disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis for all public entities to enable investors to develop more decision-useful financial analyses. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. A public entity should apply the amendments in this Update retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Upon transition, the segment expense categories and amounts disclosed in the prior periods should be based on the significant segment expense categories identified and disclosed in the period of adoption.

In December 2023, the FASB also issued ASU 2023-08, *Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets*, which requires public entities to measure in-scope cryptocurrency assets at fair value in the statement of financial position, and to recognize gains and losses from changes in the fair value of cryptocurrency in net income each reporting period. ASU 2023-08 will also require entities to provide certain interim and annual disclosures with respect to their cryptocurrency holdings. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, with a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual reporting period in which we adopt the guidance. The Company adopted ASU 2023-08 on January 1, 2025. Because the Company did not acquire cryptocurrency assets until September 2025, there was no cumulative-effect adjustment upon adoption; however, the guidance changed the Company's accounting for such assets on a prospective basis.

*Recent Accounting Pronouncements*. Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards are expected to have a material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, the Company will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

*Segment Reporting.* The Company uses "the management approach" in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company's chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company's reportable segments. The Company's chief operating decision maker is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") of the Company, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Historically, the Company operated two reportable segments: (i) Inventory Management Solutions ("Forever 8") and (ii) the Corrugated Packaging Business. On April 7, 2025, the Company completed the sale of the assets comprising the Corrugated Packaging Business. Following this divestiture, Forever 8 remains the Company's sole revenue-generating operating segment.

On September 8, 2025, the Company adopted a Digital Asset Treasury ("DAT") Strategy and began actively deploying capital into the acquisition and long-term holding of digital assets. The Company initiated digital asset treasury management activities as part of its corporate strategy to diversify its cash and liquidity management. These activities are not operated as a separate business unit and are managed centrally within the Company's corporate function. Accordingly, they are not considered a separate operating segment under ASC 280, *Segment Reporting*.

Accordingly, as of September 30, 2025, the Company has one operating segments:

● Forever 8 (Inventory Management Solutions) – the Company's operating business and only revenue-producing segment; and

Corporate-level functions consisting primarily of centralized finance, treasury (including DAT-related activities), stock-based compensation, board costs, public company costs, interest expense, income taxes, and other non-operating items are not allocated to the Forever 8 segment. The CODM reviews Forever 8 working capital and operating assets to assess performance. Corporate assets include digital asset holdings, cash not used in Forever 8, goodwill, and other long-term corporate assets, none of which are allocated to operating segments. Segment assets reviewed by the CODM primarily include working capital assets for the Company's operating business. Digital asset balances are monitored as part of corporate treasury and are not allocated to a segment.

*Reclassifications.* Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation, including amounts related to the Corrugated Packaging Business, which was classified as a discontinued operations. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported net income or stockholders' equity.

**3. GOING CONCERN**

In prior periods, the Company had experienced operating losses, limited liquidity, and negative cash flows from operations, which raised substantial doubt regarding its ability to continue as a going concern.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company completed significant capital-raising activities, including a $270 million private placement and additional issuances through its at-the-market program. A substantial portion of the proceeds was allocated to digital assets, which are measured at fair value under ASU 2023-08 and include highly liquid assets such as U.S. dollar-denominated stablecoins.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company held $23.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $286.7 million in digital assets, resulting in total current assets of $316.5 million and working capital of approximately $299.7 million. Forever 8, the Company's sole operating business, following the divestiture of the Packaging Business, continues to generate stable operating margins and predictable cash flows. The Company also maintains access to revolving credit facilities used to support Forever 8 inventory financing activities.

Based on its current liquidity position, expected operating cash flows, access to financing facilities, and the highly liquid nature of its digital asset holdings, management believes the Company has sufficient resources to meet its obligations as they become due for at least twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. Accordingly, management has concluded that substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is alleviated, and these financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis.

**22. SEGMENTING REPORTING**

The Company follows ASC 280, Segment Reporting, and determines its reportable segments based on the internal financial information reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer, who serves as the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). The CODM evaluates the business on a consolidated basis for purposes of assessing performance, making operating decisions, allocating resources, and planning for future periods.

Historically, the Company operated two reportable segments: (i) Forever 8, its Inventory Management Solutions business, and (ii) the Corrugated Packaging Business. On April 7, 2025, the Company completed the sale of the assets comprising the Corrugated Packaging Business. Following the divestiture, the Company operates as one business segment, consistent with how the CODM evaluates financial performance and manages resources.

On September 8, 2025, the Company initiated digital asset treasury management activities ("DAT Strategy") as part of its broader corporate strategy to diversify its cash and liquidity management. These digital asset activities do not constitute a separate operating segment under ASC 280 because:

● They are not managed as a distinct business unit.

● No discrete financial information is prepared or reviewed by the CODM for purposes of performance assessment.

● The CODM reviews digital asset activity only as part of consolidated corporate treasury management.

Accordingly, digital asset treasury management activities are included within Corporate and do not represent a separate operating or reportable segment.

The Company therefore reports as one operating and reportable segment:

● Forever 8 (Inventory Management Solutions) — the Company's sole revenue-generating business.

Corporate-level activities including digital asset treasury management, stock-based compensation, board and governance costs, interest expense, taxes, and other non-operating items are managed centrally and not allocated to the operating segment.

The Company had no intersegment revenues during the periods presented. Segment information is presented in accordance with the manner in which the CODM internally evaluates operating performance and allocates resources.

**23. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS**

On October 13, 2025, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to make a strategic investment in Mythical Games, Inc. ("Mythical") as part of Mythical's Series D financing round, alongside ARK Invest and World Foundation. Mythical is a leading developer in Web3 gaming and digital ownership, known for titles including NFL Rivals, Pudgy Party (in partnership with Pudgy Penguins), and FIFA Rivals. The investment aligns with the Company's strategic roadmap to allocate up to 1% of its digital asset treasury toward venture-style investments that advance authentication and identity verification technologies within the Worldcoin ecosystem. This investment strengthens the Company's position as the authentication and trust layer for the post-AGI economy, in coordination with Worldcoin's Worldchain, a blockchain designed for Proof of Human (PoH) verification and single sign-on. The Company anticipates that its collaboration with Mythical and the World Foundation will accelerate the integration of verified digital identity solutions into gaming ecosystems and AI-driven platforms.

On October 31, 2025, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved an increase of 7,500,000 shares reserved for issuance under the Company's 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan, bringing the total authorized shares under the plan to a level below 19.99% of the Company's outstanding common stock as of that date. The Committee also authorized the filing of a Form S-8 registration statement to register the additional shares and approved grant awards totalling 877,500 shares or restricted stock units to directors, officers, and employees in recognition of their efforts related to the Company.

On October 27, 2025, the Company entered into an amended and restated Sales Agreement (the "Cantor-Lafferty ATM Agreement") with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. ("Cantor") and R.F. Lafferty & Co., Inc. ("R.F. Lafferty"), amending the Lafferty ATM Agreement dated September 10, 2025. The amendment adds Cantor as an additional sales agent and authorizes Cantor, acting as principal and/or sales agent, to offer and sell shares of the Company's common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $2.7 billion. All other material terms of the Lafferty ATM Agreement remain unchanged.

The Company has issued 10,570,644 shares of common stock under the Lafferty ATM and Cantor-Lafferty ATM Agreement from October 1, 2025 through November 13, 2025 for net proceeds of $99,814,470.

**ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.**

*Unless otherwise indicated, the terms "we," "us," "our," "Eightco," and the "Company" refer to Eightco Holdings Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries. The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.*

 

*This section contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including statements regarding our strategy, plans, future financial performance, liquidity, and capital allocation framework. These statements involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences are discussed under the section titled "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" in this Quarterly Report, as well as under "Risk Factors" in this Quarterly Report and in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements except as required by law.*

**<u>Overview</u>**

During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, we adopted a new Digital Asset Treasury ("DAT") Strategy, significantly increased our holdings of digital assets, and completed substantial capital-raising activities to support these initiatives. These actions represent material changes to our capital allocation strategy, financial condition, risk profile, and long-term operating model, and therefore require expanded disclosure in this Management's Discussion and Analysis.

We continue to operate Forever 8, our inventory funding business that provides inventory purchasing and financing solutions to e-commerce retailers. At the same time, we completed the wind-down of our prior Web3 operations and Bitcoin mining hardware sales, and on April 7, 2025, we sold the assets associated with our Packaging Business. Forever 8 now represents our sole operating business.

**Adoption of Digital Asset Treasury ("DAT") Strategy**

**Strategy Overview**

On September 8, 2025, our Board of Directors approved the adoption of a Digital Asset Treasury Strategy under which Eightco holds digital assets, primarily Worldcoin (WLD and WCWLD), as part of a long-term treasury reserve framework. Under this policy, we may allocate excess liquidity, operating cash flows, and proceeds from financing transactions to the acquisition of digital assets.

This strategy reflects a dual-pillar model combining (i) the operating performance of Forever 8, and (ii) long-term digital asset holdings designed to enhance our capital base and provide shareholders with exposure to emerging decentralized technologies.

**Rationale for Strategy**

Key factors underlying the DAT Strategy include:

● The growth and potential of the Worldcoin ecosystem

● The belief that certain digital assets may serve as long-term stores of value

● The ability to report digital assets at fair value under ASU 2023-08

● Opportunities for differentiated long-term returns

● The availability of capital to scale a treasury strategy of meaningful size

● Management expects digital assets to remain a significant component of our long-term capital allocation framework.

**Capital Raising Activities**

During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, we completed substantial financing transactions to support the DAT Strategy:

● We raised $270 million in gross proceeds through a private placement of equity securities.

● We generated additional proceeds through our at-the-market ("ATM") equity offering program.

A significant portion of the PIPE and ATM proceeds was deployed to acquire digital assets. These capital raises materially strengthened our liquidity and expanded our balance sheet.

**Digital Asset Acquisitions**

During the quarter, we acquired digital assets with an aggregate fair value of approximately $287 million as of September 30, 2025. Our holdings consist primarily of:

● Worldcoin (WLD and WCWLD)

● Ethereum (ETH)

● U.S. dollar-denominated stablecoins

● Other digital assets used for liquidity management, trade settlement, or operational purposes

Digital assets are custodied with institutional-grade providers, including Kraken, Coinbase, and FalconX.

**Custody, Concentrations and Transfer Restrictions**

 

As of September 30, 2025, substantially all digital assets were held with a small number of U.S.-based institutional custodians under cold-storage arrangements. From time to time, a significant portion of our digital assets may be concentrated with a single custodian. Certain assets (including staking-ineligible or restricted tokens, if any) may be subject to withdrawal, settlement, or transfer restrictions pursuant to platform or network constraints. We continually evaluate custodian concentration and portability risk as part of our liquidity planning.

**Accounting for Digital Assets**

Effective January 1, 2025, we adopted ASU 2023-08, which requires eligible digital assets to be measured at fair value, with changes recognized in net income each reporting period.

Key effects include:

● Digital assets are presented at fair value on our balance sheets

● Unrealized gains and losses from price fluctuations flow through earnings

● Earnings may be more volatile due to digital asset market movements

● Historical impairment-only accounting no longer applies

This measurement model increases transparency but introduces meaningful volatility tied to the valuation of Worldcoin and other digital assets.

**Volatility and Earnings Sensitivity**

Because we measure eligible crypto assets at fair value under ASU 2023-08, period-to-period changes in the market price of Worldcoin (WLD/WCWLD) and other digital assets will directly affect reported earnings and cash provided by (used in) operating activities to the extent realized on conversion. This may result in material earnings volatility unrelated to our Forever 8 operating performance.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates**

There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, other than the adoption of ASU 2023-08, which requires eligible crypto assets to be measured at fair value with changes recognized in net income. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report and in the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

**Key Components of our Results of Operations**

***Revenues***

We generate the substantial majority of our revenues from inventory financing and inventory management services through our wholly owned subsidiary, Forever 8. Our revenues are primarily derived from the purchase and resale of consumer products to e-commerce retailers under our inventory management solutions model. Following the adoption of our Digital Asset Treasury ("DAT") strategy in September 2025, the Company does not expect to generate revenue from digital asset activities.

***Cost of Revenues***

Cost of revenues includes the cost of purchased inventory, materials and supplies, internal labor and related benefits, subcontractor costs, depreciation, overhead, and shipping and handling costs. These costs are directly associated with our Forever 8 inventory management activities. We no longer incur costs related to the purchase or resale of Bitcoin mining equipment, as this line of business is no longer pursued.

***Selling, General and Administrative Expenses***

Selling, general and administrative expenses include selling and marketing costs, payroll and employee-related expenses, administrative expenses, professional fees, insurance, technology and software costs, and other overhead required to support both our Forever 8 operations and our corporate infrastructure. SG&A also includes expenses associated with supporting the Digital Asset Treasury function, including custodial fees, compliance costs, and professional services related to digital asset oversight.

***Restructuring and Severance Expenses***

Restructuring and severance expenses consist of costs associated with organizational changes, including employee severance, benefits continuation, contract termination costs, and costs associated with facility consolidations or other restructuring activities. These expenses vary depending on management's strategic initiatives. No restructuring or severance costs were incurred during the periods presented.

***Interest Expense and Income, Net***

Interest expense reflects the cost of borrowings under our lines of credit and other financing arrangements used to support our Forever 8 inventory-financing activities. Interest income primarily includes earned interest on notes receivable and cash-equivalent investments, as well as yield earned on short-term instruments.

***Change in Fair Value of Digital Assets***

Beginning in September 2025, following the deployment of our Digital Asset Treasury strategy, the Company holds digital assets measured at fair value in accordance with ASU 2023-08. Changes in the fair value of digital assets including both realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized in earnings in the period in which they occur. Because the DAT is not a revenue-generating activity, changes in fair value represent a key driver of period-over-period volatility in our results of operations.

 ****

***Gain on Divestiture***

Gain on divestiture represents gains recognized in connection with the sale of assets. This includes the gain recognized on the sale of the Ferguson Containers corrugated packaging business on April 7, 2025.

***Gain on Extinguishment of Liabilities***

Gain on extinguishment of liabilities includes gains recognized when outstanding liabilities are settled for amounts less than their carrying value, or when obligations are legally extinguished. No such gains were recorded during the periods presented.

***Other Income***

Other income includes the interest income received from the Wattum Note and Reichard Containers Note.

**<u>Results of Operations</u>**

***Revenue***

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, revenues were $5,300,527, representing a decrease of $755,519, or 12.48%, compared to revenues of $6,056,046 for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease reflects reduced order volumes from certain customers as the Company exited its liquidation-model operations and is in the process of winding down relationships where we previously were operating customer storefronts to mitigate losses.

***Cost of Revenues***

Cost of revenues was $5,496,377 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $4,451,185 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $1,045,192, or 23.49%. The decrease correlates to the reduction in volumes described above. Cost of revenues for the 2025 period also reflects the impact of product mix shifts and includes certain close-out reserved inventory costs associated with the exit from the liquidation model.

***Gross Profit***

Gross profit decreased to a loss of $195,850 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to a gross profit of $1,604,861 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, a decline of $1,800,711.

The decrease was primarily driven by:

● Write-downs of inventory associated with our decision to exit the liquidation model and discontinue operating customer storefronts where loss exposure had increased.

● Write-downs of certain accounts receivable from customers tied to the liquidation business where collectability deteriorated following the operational exit.

● Lower volumes and generally lower-margin product mix during the 2025 period.

These actions were undertaken to eliminate structurally unprofitable arrangements and are expected to reduce ongoing losses in future periods.

***Operating Expenses***

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $6,002,208 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $3,364,793 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $2,637,415, or 78.40%.

The increase was attributable to:

● Higher professional fees and advisory costs incurred in connection with the Company's capital raising and the implementation of its Digital Asset Treasury strategy;

● Increased compensation and corporate overhead required to support expanded operations, including share-based compensation; and

● Higher technology, compliance, and custodial-related costs associated with digital asset oversight.

The Company did not incur restructuring or severance expenses in either period.

 ****

***Interest Expense***

Net interest expense totaled $(1,095,132) for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $(1,525,274) for the three months ended September 30, 2024, reflecting lower average borrowings on the Company's financing facilities.

***Change in Fair Value of Digital Assets***

The Company recognized a loss of $(18,639,017) related to fair value changes of its digital asset holdings during the three months ended September 30, 2025. The Company did not hold digital assets during the comparable 2024 period.

 ****

***Other Income***

Other income increased to $87,991 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, from $22,830 in the prior-year period, primarily due to addition of the Reichard Corrugated Note.

***Income (Loss) Before Income Taxes***

 ****

Loss before income taxes was $(25,844,216) for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $(3,262,376) for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increased loss is primarily attributable to the adoption of the Digital Asset Treasury strategy and the resulting fair value losses recognized during the period, as well as lower gross profit and higher SG&A expenses as well as asset write-downs due to the exiting of the liquidation business model for Forever 8.

 ****

***Income tax expense***

Income tax expense was $0 for both periods presented. The Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets.

***Net income (loss)***

Net loss from continuing operations was $(25,844,216) for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $(3,177,373) for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

***Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 versus Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024***

The following table sets forth information comparing the components of net (loss) income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

***Revenue***

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, revenues were $22,793,160, compared to $19,298,336 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, representing a increase of $3,494,824, or 18.11%. The increase was driven primarily by the Company's cell phone business.

***Cost of Revenues***

Cost of revenues increased to $20,930,455 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $14,980,682 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $5, 9459,773, or 39.71%.

The increase reflects a combination of:

● Product mix shifts toward lower-margin items;

● Increased revenues

***Gross Profit***

Gross profit decreased to $1,862,705 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $4,317,654 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decline of $2,454,949.

The decrease resulted from:

● Write-downs of inventory related to the Company's exit from the liquidation model;

● Write-downs of certain accounts receivable associated with customers tied to the liquidation operations whose collectability deteriorated; and

● Lower overall margin profile of product sales in 2025.

These items reflect the Company's decision to eliminate unprofitable arrangements, which is expected to benefit future cash flow and margin profile.

***Operating Expenses***

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $10,683,465 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $9,614,684 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $1,068,781, or 11.11%.

Operating expenses in 2025 reflects offsetting factors:

● Increased professional fees, compliance costs, advisory services, and custodial-related expenses associated with the Company's Digital Asset Treasury strategy and capital markets activities;

● Reductions in personnel, back-office functions, and corporate overhead compared to 2024, when restructuring actions elevated SG&A; and

● Increased share-based compensation

***Restructuring and severance***

Restructuring and severance expenses were $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $1,414,838 for the same period in 2024. The decrease reflects the completion of headcount rationalization and cost-reduction programs executed in 2024.

***Interest Expense***

Interest expense was $(3,660,662) for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $(4,047,639) for the prior-year period, reflecting lower average outstanding balances under the Company's financing facilities.

***Change in fair value of digital assets***

 ****

The Company recorded a loss of $(18,639,017) related to the change in fair value of its digital asset holdings for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The Company did not hold digital assets in 2024.

**Gain on divestiture**

The Company recognized a $1,231,774 gain during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 related to the sale of assets of the Corrugated Packaging Business. There was no comparable gain in 2024.

***Gain on forgiveness of earnout***

Gain on forgiveness of earnout was $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 versus $6,100,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The full amount of the earnout rights were forgiven in 2024.

***Gain on extinguishment of liabilities***

Gain on extinguishment of liabilities was $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 versus $7,427,193 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

***Income (Loss) Before Income Taxes***

Loss before income taxes was $(19,696,807) for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to income before income taxes of $2,845,330 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The variance is primarily attributable to:

● The absence of significant nonrecurring 2024 gains;

● Gross profit pressures related to inventory and A/R write-downs; and

● Fair value losses on digital assets in 2025.

***Income tax expense***

Income tax benefit was $(28,793) for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets.

***Net income (loss)***

Net loss was $(29,562,461) for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net income of $3,212,482 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

**<u>Liquidity and Capital Resources</u>**

**Overview**

Our liquidity position changed significantly during the quarter as a result of (i) the PIPE and ATM capital raises, (ii) the deployment of capital into digital assets as part of the DAT Strategy, and (iii) the ongoing financing needs of the Forever 8 operating business. We believe our current liquidity, including cash, cash equivalents, stablecoins, and other liquid digital assets, is sufficient to meet anticipated operating needs for at least the next twelve months.

**Liquidity Profile**

As of September 30, 2025, our immediate liquidity consisted of cash and cash equivalents, stablecoins, and other liquid digital assets. We actively manage working capital by converting stablecoins and other digital assets to U.S. dollars to meet operating needs. We believe our cash and stablecoins provide sufficient liquidity for at least the next 12 months.

**Sources of Liquidity**

*<u>PIPE Financing</u>*

The PIPE generated $270 million in gross proceeds, representing the most significant source of liquidity during the period.

*<u>ATM Program</u>*

 

We raised additional capital during the quarter under our ATM program. Proceeds were used to acquire digital assets and fund working capital needs.

Forever 8 Credit Facilities (Series A, B, C, and D)

Forever 8 continues to rely on its secured inventory financing facilities (the "Forever 8 Facilities"), which remain active and available.

In the aggregate, these facilities provide:

● Interest rates ranging from 15% to 18% per annum

● Unused commitment fees of approximately 5% per annum

● A revolving draw structure through "Initial Loan Advances" and "Subsequent Draws" from lender-controlled escrows

● Collateral in the form of Forever 8 inventory, equipment, and related proceeds

As of September 30, 2025, Forever 8 had approximately $10.1 million outstanding under these facilities and additional availability to support ongoing inventory purchases.

*<u>Digital Assets as Liquidity</u>*

 

Certain digital assets—particularly U.S. dollar-denominated stablecoins—function as near-cash liquidity sources and may be converted to U.S. dollars as needed.

**Uses of Liquidity**

*<u>Digital Asset Purchases</u>*

 

We deployed a substantial portion of PIPE and ATM proceeds to acquire digital assets totaling $287 million at fair value as of period end.

*<u>Forever 8 Inventory Funding</u>*

 

Forever 8 uses liquidity to support inventory purchasing activities on behalf of e-commerce merchants. These requirements are funded through:

● Operating cash flows

● Digital asset conversions

● Borrowings under the Forever 8 Facilities

*<u>Operating and Corporate Needs</u>*

 

Liquidity is also used to support routine corporate expenses, personnel, professional fees, vendor obligations, and other working capital needs.

**Subsequent Events Affecting Liquidity**

Subsequent to September 30, 2025, we (i) acquired additional digital assets of approximately $71 million. We also (ii) issued $[●] million of equity under the ATM. These subsequent events do not change our conclusion regarding liquidity sufficiency for the next 12 months.

**Future Liquidity Considerations**

Our liquidity in future periods will be influenced by:

● The fair value of digital assets held under the DAT Strategy

● Market conditions affecting potential capital raises

● Working capital needs of Forever 8

● Digital asset market liquidity and volatility

● Regulatory developments affecting digital asset custody, trading, and classification

● Broader macroeconomic conditions impacting e-commerce demand

Based on current conditions, we believe our liquidity resources are sufficient to support both our operating business and Digital Asset Treasury Strategy for at least the next twelve months.

**Cash Flows**

***Cash Flows for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024***

*Operating Activities*

Net cash used in operating activities was 1,279,248 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, which consisted primarily of the net loss of $29,562,461 impacted by noncash items related to gain on divestiture of 1,231,774 offset depreciation and amortization of $1,764,410, amortization of debt issuance costs of $750,000, shared-based compensation of $2,476,906, change in fair value of digital assets of $18,639,017 and changes in assets and liabilities of $5,884,654.

Net cash (used in) operating activities was ($1,085,865) during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, which consisted primarily of net income of $3,212,482, depreciation and amortization of $1,831,064, amortization of debt issuance costs of $1,087,750, and changes in assets and liabilities of $5,830,511 offset largely by gain on extinguishment of liabilities of $7,427,193 and gain on forgiveness of earnout of $6,100,000.

*Investing Activities*

Net cash used in investing activities was $304,865,683 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $47,685 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in net cash used in investing activities is largely attributable to the purchase of digital assets related to our Digital Asset Treasury strategy.

*Financing Activities*

Net cash provided by financing activities was $329,618,207 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to net cash used in financing activities of $1,707,834 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The change was largely attributable to the PIPE and ATM transactions that general net proceeds for $329,852,895 through the issuance of common stock..

The Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2025.

**Known Trends, Events, Uncertainties and Factors That May Affect Future Operations**

Our results and liquidity may be materially affected by:

● Digital asset market volatility, including price, volume, and spreads for WLD/WCWLD and other tokens;

● Regulatory developments affecting custody, stablecoins, or exchange operations and their impact on access, withdrawals, or pricing;

● Custodian concentration and counterparty risk, including operational incidents, solvency, or cybersecurity;

● Capital markets conditions impacting our ability to raise additional equity via PIPE or ATM transactions;

● Interest rate levels influencing borrowing costs under the Forever 8 Facilities and customer demand for inventory financing; and

● Macro factors (consumer demand, e-commerce trends, geopolitics, inflation, and credit availability).

**Contractual Obligations and Commitments**

The Company has no debt covenants that require certain financial information to be met.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates**

This discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations is based on the Company's combined financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

See Note [ &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ] for fair value hierarchy, principal markets, and realized/unrealized gains and losses recognized in the period.

For information on the Company's significant accounting policies please refer to Note 2 to the Company's Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report.

**ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**

Not applicable.

**ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

**Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on such evaluation, the Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period covered by this Quarterly Report, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information that it is required to disclose in reports that the Company files with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Exchange Act rules and regulations due to the reasons set forth below.

As of December 31, 2024, management identified the following material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting: the Company was unable to provide a timely financial reporting package in connection with the year end audit. This was primarily the result of the Company's limited accounting personnel. This also limits the extent to which the Company can segregate incompatible duties and has a lack of controls in place to ensure that all material transactions and developments impacting the financial statements are reflected. There is a risk under the current circumstances that intentional or unintentional errors could occur and not be detected.

Management has concluded that the material weakness described above currently exists as of September 30, 2025. We continue to remediate the material weakness identified as of December 31, 2024, which persisted at September 30, 2025. During Q4 2025 and into 2026 we are: (i) augmenting accounting resources (including SEC reporting and technical accounting) to improve the timeliness and quality of period-end close; (ii) formalizing and documenting key controls over the financial close, including reconciliations, review controls, and segregation of duties; (iii) implementing enhanced IT-dependent manual controls to support completeness and accuracy of reports used in controls; and (iv) engaging external advisors to assist with design, implementation, and testing of internal controls.

Digital Asset Treasury Control Environment. In connection with the DAT Strategy, management designed and began implementing controls over (a) authorization of digital asset acquisitions and dispositions, (b) wallet/custody address verification, multi-factor approvals, and key-access governance, (c) reconciliation of on-chain balances and custodian statements to the general ledger, (d) fair value measurement (including principal market determination and pricing validation), and (e) disclosure controls. We will continue to evaluate and enhance these controls in subsequent quarters.

**Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

Other than (i) the changes implemented in connection with the Digital Asset Treasury Control Environment and (ii) the remediation actions described above, there were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2025.

**PART II. OTHER INFORMATION**

**ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS**

From time to time, the Company is party to legal actions that are routine and incidental to its business. However, based upon available information and in consultation with legal counsel, management does not expect the ultimate disposition of any or a combination of these actions to have a material adverse effect on the Company's assets, business, cash flow, condition (financial or otherwise), liquidity, prospects and\or results of operations.

**ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS**

An investment in our securities involves certain risks. Before deciding to invest in our common stock, you should consider carefully the following discussion of risks and uncertainties affecting us and our securities, together with other information in this Quarterly Report. Our business, business prospects, financial condition or results of operations could be seriously harmed as a result of these risks. This could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial, also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Please also read carefully the section below entitled "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Summary Risk Factors."

**Supplemental Risks Related to Our Digital Asset Treasury Business**

The following risk factors represent material changes to the risks disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and should be read in conjunction with the risk factors disclosed therein. Except as described below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed.

***Our Digital Asset Treasury ("DAT") Strategy exposes us to significant volatility and potential losses, and may materially affect our financial condition and results of operations.***

In September 2025, we adopted a Digital Asset Treasury Strategy under which a substantial portion of our liquidity, including proceeds from financing transactions, is allocated to the acquisition and holding of digital assets. Digital asset markets are highly volatile and historically subject to significant price fluctuations. As of September 30, 2025, we held approximately $287 million of digital assets measured at fair value under ASU 2023-08. Future fluctuations in the prices of these assets, including Worldcoin (WLD and WCWLD), Ethereum (ETH), and other crypto assets, may result in material gains or losses in our consolidated statements of operations.

Significant declines in digital asset prices may reduce our liquidity, impair our ability to execute our operating strategy, reduce the value of our balance sheet, and adversely affect our stock price.

***The fair value measurement model required under ASU 2023-08 may increase earnings volatility.***

 ****

Effective January 1, 2025, we adopted ASU 2023-08, which requires us to measure eligible digital assets at fair value, with changes recognized in net income each reporting period. As a result, our earnings will be sensitive to short-term price movements in digital asset markets. This may produce material period to period volatility, reduce comparability to prior periods, and result in losses independent of our operating performance.

***We may be unable to liquidate digital assets at favorable prices or in a timely manner due to limited market liquidity or trading halts.***

 ****

Digital asset markets may experience illiquidity, exchange outages, trading halts, or disruptions. Some of our digital assets are custodied or executed through a limited number of regulated and unregulated trading venues. In periods of high volatility or market stress, we may be unable to convert digital assets into fiat currency at acceptable prices or within required timeframes, which may impair our ability to satisfy operational or financing needs.

***Digital asset custody, exchange, and counterparty risks may expose us to loss of assets.***

 ****

We rely on third-party custodians and trading counterparties, including Kraken, Coinbase, and FalconX, to safeguard and execute transactions relating to our digital assets. The digital asset industry has experienced failures of exchanges, custodians, trading firms, and stablecoin issuers. A cybersecurity breach, insolvency, operational failure, or misappropriation at any custodian or counterparty could result in partial or total loss of our digital assets, which would materially and adversely affect our financial condition.

***We may need additional capital in the future, and our access to financing may be adversely affected by volatility in digital asset markets.***

Although we raised significant capital during the quarter through a PIPE and through our ATM program, our future liquidity and capital raising capacity may depend on the value of our digital asset holdings and capital market conditions. Material reductions in digital asset prices could limit our ability to raise capital on favorable terms, or at all, which could adversely affect our operations and strategic plans.

**Risks Related to the Company's Business and Worldcoin Treasury Strategy** 

***We have adopted a digital asset treasury strategy with a focus on WLD, and we may be unable to successfully implement this new strategy.***

We have adopted a digital asset treasury primarily dedicated to WLD, including acquisitions of WLD, including through a process similar to staking and other decentralized finance activities. There is no assurance that we will be able to successfully implement this new strategy or operate Worldcoin-related activities at the scale currently anticipated. Worldcoin is an ERC-20 token operating on the Ethereum Mainnet. The identity layer (iris verification, World identification credentials and the Orb hardware network) is built entirely off-chain. This business requires specialized employee skillsets and operational, technical and compliance infrastructure to support WLD and identity-layer activities. This also requires the implementation of different security protocols and treasury management practices and adherence to privacy laws. Further, there is ongoing scrutiny and limited formal guidance from regulatory agencies, including Nasdaq and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), with respect to the treatment of public company cryptocurrency strategies. There is no assurance that we will be able to execute this strategy by building out the needed infrastructure within the timeframe that we currently anticipate. Errors by key management could result in significant loss of funds and reduced rewards. As a result, our shift towards WLD could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

***Our shift towards a Worldcoin-focused treasury strategy requires substantial changes in our day-to-day operations and may expose us to significant operational risks.***

Our shift towards a WLD treasury-focused strategy, including decentralized finance activities, exposes us to significant operational risks. The Worldcoin ecosystem rapidly evolves. The upgrades may require that we incur unanticipated costs and could cause temporary service disruptions to the Worldcoin network. We may also need to employ third-party service providers in our operations, which may introduce risks outside of our control, including significant cybersecurity risks. Any of these operational risks could materially and adversely affect our ability to execute our WLD treasury strategy and may prevent us from realizing positive returns and could severely hurt our financial condition.

***We intend to purchase more WLD, the price of which has been, and will likely continue to be, highly volatile. Our operating results and share price may significantly fluctuate, including due to the highly volatile nature of the price of such digital assets and erratic market movements.***

We intend to purchase or otherwise acquire more WLD for the furtherance of our digital asset treasury operations. Digital assets, such as WLD, generally are highly volatile assets, including as a result of shifts in market sentiment, speculative trading, macroeconomic trends, technology-related disruptions and regulatory announcements. Our operating results and share price may significantly fluctuate, including due to the highly volatile nature of the price of such digital assets and erratic market movements. In addition, digital assets do not pay interest or other returns, unless utilized in financial applications, and so the ability to generate a return on investment from the net proceeds of any capital raising activities will depend on whether there is appreciation in the value of digital assets following our purchases, which is highly speculative. Future fluctuations in digital asset trading prices may result in our converting digital assets into cash with a value substantially below what we paid for such digital assets. There is no guarantee that digital assets such as WLD will continue to represent any measure of value. Any decreases in the value of WLD could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. See also ***"—****Ownership of WLD is believed to be highly concentrated***."**

***The concentration of our WLD holdings enhances the risks inherent in our Worldcoin-focused strategy.***

The intended concentration of our WLD holdings limits the risk mitigation that we could achieve if we were to purchase a more diversified portfolio of treasury assets, and the absence of diversification enhances the risks inherent in our Worldcoin-focused strategy. Any future significant declines in the price of WLD could have a pronounced impact on our financial condition than if we used our cash to purchase a more diverse portfolio of assets. See also *"—Ownership of WLD is believed to be highly concentrated*" and "*—We intend to purchase WLD, the price of which has been, and will likely continue to be, highly volatile. Our operating results and share price may significantly fluctuate, including due to the highly volatile nature of the price of such digital assets and erratic market movements.*"

***In connection with our WLD treasury strategy, we expect to interact with various smart contracts deployed on the Worldcoin network, which may expose us to risks and technical vulnerabilities.***

In connection with our WLD treasury strategy, including decentralized finance activities, we expect to interact with various smart contracts deployed on the Ethereum network in order to optimize our strategy and generate income. Smart contracts are self-executing code that operate without human intervention once deployed. Although smart contracts are integral to the functionality of decentralized finance applications, they are subject to many known risks such as technical vulnerabilities, coding errors, security flaws, and exploits. Any vulnerability in a smart contract we interact with could result in the loss or theft of WLD or other digital assets, which could have a materially adverse impact on our business. In addition, certain smart contracts are upgradable or subject to certain governance controls which could result in unforeseen code errors, asset or account freezing, or the loss of digital assets. A vulnerability in a smart contract could create an unintended and unforeseeable consequence that has adverse financial consequences, such as the loss of or inability to access funds. There is no assurance that the smart contracts we integrate with or rely upon will function as intended or remain secure. Exploitation of such vulnerabilities could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

***Part of our future business strategy may include acquisitions and investments in companies with Worldcoin-focused or blockchain strategies, and there are risks associated with the integration of any assets or operations acquired and our ability to manage those risks. In addition, we may be unable to make attractive acquisitions or successfully integrate acquired businesses, assets or properties, and any inability to do so may disrupt our business and hinder our ability to grow.***

We intend to pursue a strategy focused on both WLD accumulation and future acquisitions. Accordingly, in the future we may make acquisitions of businesses or assets that we expect to complement or expand our current assets. However, we may not be able to identify attractive acquisition opportunities in the future. Even if we do identify attractive acquisition opportunities, we may not be able to complete the acquisition or do so on commercially acceptable terms. No assurance can be given that we will be able to identify additional suitable acquisition opportunities, negotiate acceptable terms, obtain financing for acquisitions on acceptable terms or successfully acquire identified targets.

The success of any acquisition will depend on our ability to integrate effectively the acquired business or asset into our existing operations. The process of integrating acquired businesses and assets may involve unforeseen difficulties and may require a disproportionate amount of our managerial and financial resources. The integration of acquisitions is a complex, costly and time-consuming process, and our management may face significant challenges in such process. Some of the factors affecting integration will be outside of our control, and any one of them could result in increased costs and diversion of management's time and energy, as well as decreases in the amount of expected revenue. Our failure to achieve consolidation savings, to incorporate the acquired businesses and assets into our existing operations successfully or to minimize any unforeseen operational difficulties could have a material and adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Additional ability to achieve the objectives of our business strategy depends in significant part on our ability to obtain equity and debt financing. If we are unable to obtain equity or debt financing on favorable terms or at all, we may not be able to successfully execute on our business strategy.

***Decentralized finance arrangements may expose us to risks of smart contract risk, operational failures and cybersecurity threats.***

From time to time, we may generate income through the use of digital assets including WLD or stablecoins in decentralized protocols including decentralized finance ("DeFi") applications. DeFi applications include over-collateralized borrow-lend vaults, token-exchange pools, and other financial or commercial arrangements. Although these protocols are largely designed to limit counterparty risk in transactions, they introduce novel risks relating to software code bugs, liquidation risks, and governance risks that are designed to operate in decentralized environments but can be subject to failures or exploits. In addition: (a) network congestion or downtime can increase the likelihood of asset loss or liquidation; (b) the volatility of digital assets deployed into DeFi applications may increase the likelihood of liquidation due to market downturns, liquidity crises, governance attacks or other exploits, leading to substantial financial losses; (c) the uncertainty in the accounting treatment of certain DeFi applications; (d) DeFi applications generally operate on a user-to-protocol basis where a user of a DeFi application does not know the identity of other parties utilizing the DeFi application; and (e) the use of monitoring and forensics software to mitigate risks of engaging in DeFi application may not prevent engaging in DeFi pools that are also used by bad actors.

***The Company will face risks relating to the custody of its digital assets. If we or our third-party service providers experience a security breach or cyberattack and unauthorized parties obtain access to our private keys, or if our private keys are lost or destroyed, or other similar circumstances or events occur, we may lose some or all of our digital assets and our financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.***

We expect our primary counterparty risk with respect to our WLD will be custodian performance obligations under the custody arrangements we have entered into. A series of recent high-profile bankruptcies, closures, liquidations, regulatory enforcement actions and other events relating to companies operating in the digital asset industry, the closure or liquidation of certain financial institutions that provided lending and other services to the digital assets industry, SEC enforcement actions against other providers, or placement into receivership or civil fraud lawsuit against digital asset industry participants have highlighted the perceived and actual counterparty risk applicable to digital asset ownership and trading. Legal precedent created in these bankruptcy and other proceedings may increase the risk of future rulings adverse to our interests in the event one or more of our custodians becomes a debtor in a bankruptcy case or is the subject of other liquidation, insolvency or similar proceedings.

While our custodians are subject to regulatory regimes intended to protect customers in the event of a custodial bankruptcy, receivership or similar insolvency proceeding, no assurance can be provided that our custodially held WLD will not become part of the custodian's insolvency estate if one or more of our custodians enters bankruptcy, receivership or similar insolvency proceedings. Additionally, if we pursue any strategies to create income streams or otherwise generate funds using our WLD holdings, we would become subject to additional counterparty risks. We will need to carefully evaluate market conditions, including price volatility as well as service provider terms and market reputations and performance, among others, prior to implementing any such strategy, all of which could affect our ability to successfully implement and execute on any such future strategy. These risks, along with any significant non-performance by counterparties, including in particular the custodian or custodians with which we will custody substantially all of our WLD, could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results.

***We face risks relating to the use of third-party trading platforms in connection with our Worldcoin-focused strategy.***

[NTD – intend or already have?] We intend to use third-party trading platforms and over-the-counter brokers to purchase WLD for our treasury. However, the entities with which we [NTD – have entered into?] enter into agreements may close, go bankrupt, or change their business direction, and we may no longer be able to utilize them to implement our strategy. If we cannot find replacement counterparties, it may severely adversely impact our strategy. We also may be forced to enter into agreements that do not have favorable terms, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or the results of our operations.

***The irreversibility of digital asset transactions exposes us to risks of theft, loss and human error, which could negatively impact our business.***

Digital asset transactions are not, from an administrative perspective, reversible without the consent and active participation of the recipient of the transaction or, in theory, control or consent of a majority of the processing power on that digital asset network. Once a transaction has been verified and recorded in a block that is added to the blockchain, an incorrect transfer of digital assets or a theft of digital assets generally will not be reversible, and we may not be capable of seeking compensation for any such transfer or theft.

Although we plan to regularly transfer digital assets to or from vendors, consultants and services providers, it is possible that, through computer or human error, or through theft or criminal action, such assets could be transferred in incorrect amounts or to unauthorized third parties.

To the extent we are unable to seek a corrective transaction to identify the third party which has received our digital assets through error or theft, we will be unable to revert or otherwise recover the impacted digital assets, and any such loss could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

***We are subject to significant competition in the growing digital asset industry and the Company's business, operating results, and financial condition may be adversely affected if the Company is unable to compete effectively.***

Following the launch of the Company's digital asset treasury strategy, the Company operates in a competitive environment and will compete against other companies and other entities with similar strategies, including companies that may have significant holdings in WLD and other digital assets, and the Company's business, operating results, and financial condition may be adversely affected if the Company is unable to compete effectively.

***Our dependence on a strategic advisor exposes us to significant risks regarding the operation of our business.***

We rely on Worldcoin Tower Instance LLC to provide guidance on our treasury management with respect to operational, strategic, capital deployment, and other advice, including the overall business, operations, strategic planning, growth initiatives, and industry trends in the digital asset and technology sectors. Our dependence on this advisor exposes us to significant risks regarding the operation of our business. If the advisor engages in fraudulent, negligent, or otherwise improper conduct, including regulatory violations, or suffers reputational harm from unrelated activities, our business and the market perception of the Company could be materially and adversely affected. Further, the advisor's own operational, financial, and technological competencies will directly reflect on the operation of our business. There may be key employees or key service providers that have a significant impact on our business that the advisor no longer employs or has a relationship with, which could have a material and adverse impact on the operation of our business. Because certain decisions may be influenced by this advisor's recommendations, its misjudgments or conflicts of interest could lead to losses, strategic errors, delays and loss of investment opportunities that may negatively impact our operations, token economics, and growth. We may have limited ability to monitor or control the advisor's activities or to recover damages if it fails to perform. Further, the advisor in the strategic operating agreement is not bound by any time commitment for providing its services. If the advisor fails to advise effectively because it is too busy or otherwise, we may not get the benefit of the services, which could cause a material and adverse impact on the Company.

**Risks Related to Worldcoin**

***Opaque governance, concentration of ownership, and a potential lack of meaningful separation between the World Foundation and Tools for Humanity may create conflicts of interest; material decisions may be made to the detriment of third-party holders of WLD and could also adversely affect the value of WLD and the Company.***

Tools for Humanity, a for-profit company, was created to develop and operate the core hardware and software behind the WLD protocol. It established the World Foundation as a separate non-profit entity to steward the protocol. The World Foundation relies on Tools for Humanity for engineering, product and operational execution and it may provide WLD as consideration for these services. According to Worldcoin's blog, the total supply of WLD when launched was 10 billion. Before launch, 75% of the total WLD were allocated to the World Foundation (the "WF WLD"), and 25% of the total of WLD were allocated to Tools for Humanity, those individuals linked to the owners of Tools for Humanity, and other early founders of Tools for Humanity (the "TFH WLD"). As of April 2025 [NTD – can this be updated?], about 1.3 billion or 13% of the total supply was in circulation.

The timing and conditions under which the tokens are released into circulation are important to understand the governance of the WLD ecosystem and the potential impact on the value of WLD. While the World Foundation and Tools for Humanity are legally separate entities and have separate allocations, the decision-making authority governing when and how tokens are released may rest with a small group of individuals. The allocations and governance of TFH WLD and WF WLD are governed by arrangements that are not transparent to the public, and there is no autonomous on-chain code, third party reporting, audit or other objective processes that tie the statements made to the public to those actions of World Foundation or Tools for Humanity.

With respect to WF WLD, it is unclear what the WF WLD release schedule is, but it is purportedly determined based upon the number of WLD users in the public. According to Worldcoin's blog, the decision as to when to release the WF WLD currently rests with the World Foundation's Board of Directors. The composition of the Board of Directors is disclosed as Chris Waclawek, Phillip Sippl, Weinberger Ventures GmbH and a Cayman Islands based professional director. It is not disclosed as to how they are compensated, and it is possible they are compensated in WLD. It is also possible that the Board of Directors and the World Foundation employees overlap with or are connected to Tools for Humanity. Because there is no transparency as to how the decisions related to the user-reward programs, airdrops and the release of WF WLD, there is a risk that they may act in their self-interest, including the risk of inequitable distribution, concentration of token ownership, self-dealing and acting on inside information.

These risks are also applicable to the release schedule for Tools of Humanity. The release schedule for TFH WLD is a disclosed 5-year lock-up period (released daily, in a linear fashion). The unlocking of TFH WLD commenced in July of 2023 and will end in July of 2028. However, the original lock-up period was amended by Tools for Humanity from a 3-year period to a 5-year period in 2024 and there is no assurance that this schedule will not be amended again. The release schedule may be amended at any time at the discretion of insiders and without notice to the public.

Tools for Humanity's and the World Foundation's executives, employees and investors are likely significant beneficiaries of WLD allocations. Releases of WLD could be made in ways that conflict with the interest of public token holders, including through accelerated releases during favorable market conditions or based upon internal funding needs. In addition, there could be a misalignment between insiders seeking liquidity and community members seeking network stability. These factors may disrupt market dynamics, depress or increase WLD prices, and create actual or perceptions of insider advantage that deter broader participation and have an adverse impact on WLD. Public materials indicate that the intent is for governance of WLD to be transferred to the WLD user community. However, there is no process as to how or when this will happen. As a result, the disclosed objective to create a decentralized autonomous organization for WLD may take significant time or may never be met. Given the conflicts of interest, the lack of transparency, and the risks of self-dealing, the value of WLD may decline significantly, even to zero. If the value of WLD were to decline, any negative decline could materially and adversely impact the Company's operations and financial condition and could result, in extreme circumstances, in the Company's insolvency.

***The Worldcoin ecosystem has a limited operating history.***

Worldcoin, launched in 2023, is an early-stage project with a limited operating history. Developers, consumers and businesses may not adopt Worldcoin's technology, and we believe that Worldcoin's adoption will likely depend on significant protocol development and differentiation in a highly competitive market. A failure to scale, unexpected technical flaws, privacy issues or the lack of engagement could materially reduce demand for WLD and adversely affect their value.

The World Foundation was established to govern the Worldcoin ecosystem by Tools for Humanity, which was founded by Sam Altman. Although Mr. Altman has been successful with other ventures, there is no assurance that Worldcoin will also be successful.

Because our treasury strategy is currently focused on holdings of WLD, our treasury assets are highly dependent upon the value and performance of the WLD ecosystem. If the WLD ecosystem fails to achieve its objective, or has significant setbacks or delays, the value of WLD may severely decline, which could materially and adversely impact the value of the Company's treasury assets, the liquidity of the Company, and our financial condition, which could have a substantial impact on the value of the Company's common stock.

***Worldcoin's credibility and direction are heavily tied to founder Sam Altman and other key employees. WLD tokens may represent a substantial portion of these individuals' wealth, which concentrates influence and creates uncertainty over how personal decision, priorities and sales might hurt the ecosystem.***

Worldcoin's credibility is heavily dependent on the reputation of founder Sam Altman, in addition to its founding team and key early contributors that include, but are not limited to, Alex Blania, Max Novendstern, Adrian Ludwig, Damien Kieran and Ajay Patel. The departure, diminished participation, or reputational issues of these individuals could disrupt governance, slow development, or weaken market confidence of WLD and the Company. In addition, their concentrated token holdings create the possibility of significant market impact should the insiders choose to make announcements, share information, sell or transfer positions. In particular, to the extent that Sam Atman, believed to be a large holder of WLD, or other of the key early contributors make personal decisions or priorities that do not support WLD or that the market does not perceive as favorable to WLD, this could have an adverse impact on the ecosystem, the value of our treasury assets and our stock price. Even if the project transitions to a decentralized autonomous organization, a small number of "whale" holders could dominate votes, frustrating efforts to build an open, community-driven model.

Early token allocations could create long-term misalignment between insiders seeking liquidity and community members seeking network stability. All of these factors could create significant friction in the growth of the WLD ecosystem, which could have an adverse impact on the value of the Company's common stock.

***Liquidity of WLD is not guaranteed, and WLD could be subject to manipulation.***

Adequate liquidity of WLD is not guaranteed. Venues that offer WLD trading may not be transparent about their liquidity and order flow, and they may be subject to limited regulations. These factors may create opportunities for manipulative practices, such as wash trading, pump and dump schemes and other means of artificial price support. Limited independent oversight makes it difficult to assess whether price discovery is organic or influenced by external factors, which could have an adverse impact on the value and reputation of WLD.

In addition, the illiquidity of WLD is likely to have a direct impact on the execution and success of the Company's treasury strategy. If, for example, the Company's treasury needs liquidity and there is no or an insufficient liquid market for WLD, the Company may have to request liquidity from large holders of WLD. To date, the Company has primarily acquired WLD via over-the-counter purchases through trading desks. Additionally, the Company has plans to purchase WLD directly from existing large holders. These transactions may not be successful and the Company may determine that the terms of offers from such holders, or any future holders, to be off-market and not favorable to the Company. Without liquidity, the offer to sell or buy WLD may be at prices or terms that are not commercially reasonable. It may also mean that the Company may not be able to fulfill its treasury strategy if it cannot source or sell WLD or it can only do so at prices it deems unreasonable. The illiquidity of WLD, if it continues, is likely to have a material adverse effect on the value of the Company's common stock.

***Privacy risks from biometric verification are extensive and may lead to significant barriers to entry***.

Worldcoin's identity-verification process relies on collecting biometric data through its Orb iris-scanning hardware. Because an iris pattern is a unique biometric identifier, there are numerous concerns about how that data is protected, retained, used, controlled and deleted, in addition to what happens to the data if it is stolen and fraudulently used. Regulators globally have opened inquiries or expressed concern regarding data protection and privacy due to its biometric collection practices through Worldcoin's Orb iris-scanning device. The concern about the risks of biometric data has been linked to privacy issues in other contexts. For example, in the U.S., while the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ("HIPAA") does not apply directly, the statute illustrates the heightened security standards regulators evaluate when considering biometric data, including HIPAA's standards for encryption, consent, data protection and breach notification. There are additional privacy concerns that are relevant under applicable law, such as the accuracy of data, the age of the participants, cross-border transfers, and national security implications, all of which may heighten regulatory scrutiny. There are also risks, such as key employees that may be focused on building an infrastructure to enter new markets, and obtaining new users may otherwise be focused on building an infrastructure that complies with multiple different and inconsistent regulatory frameworks. Litigation and regulatory scrutiny can take significant amounts of time and resources and create uncertainty, which can lead to business delays, which may threaten the business overall even if the product is ultimately found to be acceptable. If Worldcoin is unable to comply with these regulations, adoption of Worldcoin technology and the utility of WLD may be limited. Collectively, these privacy concerns could present substantial barriers to adoption and could materially and adversely affect the value and long-term viability of WLD tokens and the Worldcoin project, which, because of the Company's focus on its WLD treasury strategy, could have an adverse impact on the value of the Company's common stock.

***Worldcoin's requirement for in-person iris scans could create a significant adoption barrier compared to digital-only identity systems.***

Worldcoin's reliance on in-person iris scanning through proprietary Orb devices may present a significant hurdle to Worldcoin's adoption. Digital-only identity protocols or other Web3 self-sovereign identity platforms allow users to enroll and verify their identities online. However, Worldcoin requires individuals to locate and travel to an Orb operator and undergo a physical biometric capture. According to Worldcoin's blog, more than 1,500 Orb centers are active as of April 2025 [NTD – can this be updated?] in 23 countries. This extra step of going to an Orb may slow user growth, particularly in regions where Orb coverage is limited, travel is difficult, religious norms discourage biometric sign-ups, or regulatory frameworks do not allow biometric capture. Orbs may not be broadly available, for example, they are not currently available in the New York metropolitan area. These barriers for adoption could cause Worldcoin to fall behind competing companies that offer identity solutions that are potentially less privacy-invasive or difficult to undergo, negatively impacting the value of WLD and therefore the value of the Company's common stock.

***Worldcoin's biometric data is a high-value attack target for cyber-criminals and other bad actors.***

Worldcoin and other digital assets and the entities that provide services to participants in blockchain ecosystems have been, and may in the future be, subject to security breaches, cyberattacks, or other malicious activities. For example, in October 2021 it was reported that hackers exploited a flaw in the account recovery process and stole from the accounts of at least 6,000 customers of the Coinbase exchange, although the flaw was subsequently fixed and Coinbase reimbursed affected customers. Similarly, in November 2022, hackers exploited weaknesses in the security architecture of the FTX Trading digital asset exchange and reportedly stole over $400 million in digital assets from customers.

Worldcoin's operations specifically involve the collection and storage of sensitive biometric information, which makes it an attractive target for sophisticated cyber-criminals and other bad actors. Unlike passwords or credit card numbers, biometric traits are permanent and cannot be re-issued, so any compromise could cause irreversible harm to affected individuals and expose Worldcoin to legal and reputational consequences. The market value of biometric data is significant; stolen iris templates can be used to create deepfakes, spoof identity systems, and facilitate account takeovers in financial, governmental, and healthcare contexts. Attackers may attempt to circumvent Worldcoin's safeguards through creative and unconventional methods.

A successful security breach or cyberattack could result in:

● a
 partial or total loss of our digital assets in a manner that may not be covered by insurance or the liability provisions of the custody
 agreements with the custodians who hold our digital assets;

● harm
 to our reputation and brand;

● improper
 disclosure of data and violations of applicable data privacy and other laws; or

● significant
 regulatory scrutiny, investigations, fines, penalties, and other legal, regulatory, contractual and financial exposure.

Further, any actual or perceived data security breach or cybersecurity attack directed at other companies with digital assets or companies that operate digital asset networks, regardless of whether we are directly impacted, could lead to a general loss of confidence in the broader Worldcoin ecosystem or in the use of the Worldcoin network to conduct financial transactions, which could negatively impact us.

Attacks upon systems across a variety of industries, including industries related to Worldcoin, are increasing in frequency, persistence, and sophistication, and, in many cases, are being conducted by sophisticated, well organized groups and individuals, including state actors. The techniques used to obtain unauthorized, improper or illegal access to systems and information (including personal data and digital assets), disable or degrade services, or sabotage systems are constantly evolving, may be difficult to detect quickly, and often are not recognized or detected until after they have been launched against a target. These attacks may occur on our systems or those of our third-party service providers or partners. We may experience breaches of our security measures due to human error, malfeasance, insider threats, system errors or vulnerabilities or other irregularities. In particular, we expect that unauthorized parties will attempt to gain access to our systems and facilities, as well as those of our partners and third-party service providers, through various means, such as hacking, social engineering, phishing and fraud. Threats can come from a variety of sources, including criminal hackers, hacktivists, state intrusions, industrial espionage, and insiders. In addition, certain types of attacks could harm us even if our systems are left undisturbed. For example, certain threats are designed to remain dormant or undetectable, sometimes for extended periods of time, or until launched against a target and we may not be able to implement adequate preventative measures. Further, there has been an increase in such activities due to the increase in work arrangements. The risk of cyberattacks could also be increased by cyberwarfare in connection with the ongoing Russia and Israel conflicts, or other future conflicts, including potential proliferation of malware into systems unrelated to such conflicts. Any future breach of our operations or those of others in the Worldcoin industry, including third-party services on which we rely, could materially and adversely affect its financial condition and results of operations.

Breaches could also lead to class action litigation, regulatory investigations, mandatory breach notifications, substantial fines under the EU GDPR, India's DPDP Act, or similar regimes, a permanent loss of user trust, or damage to the ecosystem, among other risks. Even if a hack or breach does not actually occur and is only an advertised threat, for example through social media, any publicity about a breach or a hack could cause regulatory scrutiny and severe reputational risk. Because Worldcoin's system links each user's biometric "uniqueness" to a persistent digital identity and many have been given tokens, any compromise could also cause a manipulation of governance votes across the network if the hack is large enough. These factors, many of which are outside Worldcoin's direct control, represent a material and continuing risk to its business, financial condition, and reputation, potentially having an adverse impact on the value of the Company's common stock.

***Opposition and accusations of "data colonialism" toward large-scale biometric systems could limit Worldcoin's acceptance and trigger regulatory backlash.***

Worldcoin's global collection of biometric identifiers exposes it to heightened reputational risk and criticism from civil groups, privacy advocates, and non-governmental organizations ("NGOs") that view all organizations collecting biometric data from individuals as a form of "data colonialism." Particularly in the Global South, technology companies and investors in wealthier nations that collect personal biometric data may be considered entities that are replicating historical patterns of exploitation by providing technology companies and investors financial incentives to vulnerable communities in exchange for very valuable personal data that may be used beyond the purpose of establishing an identity. These groups argue that individuals in lower-income regions may have limited understanding of the use of the data required to give fully informed consent. Opposition of this kind can produce both regulatory and reputational consequences. While regulatory scrutiny is a risk, even in the absence of regulatory scrutiny, public criticism regarding privacy practices could damage the project's brand. With social media increasing the ability to communicate to large numbers of people in a short period of time, negative public sentiment could occur quickly. Negative public sentiment could discourage new users from enrolling and cause current users to close out their accounts. Loss of public confidence would likely limit market expansion, weaken strategic partnerships, and reduce liquidity or demand for WLD, regardless of the project's legal compliance. Allegations of data colonialism or exploitation could discourage Orb operators, enterprise partners and prospective users from engaging with Worldcoin, slowing adoption even in markets where the system is legal. Negative media coverage, NGO reports, or coordinated campaigns could also lead to investigations, mandatory audits, and costly compliance obligations, any of which could materially reduce user growth, impair token demand, and damage Worldcoin's long-term prospects. Any of these events could have an adverse impact on the value of the Company's common stock.

***Worldcoin's proof-of-personhood model, on its own, is likely to not comply with current global KYC/AML requirements in many jurisdictions, including in the US, UK and EU; the model of biometric scanning replaces the obligation to deliver documentation of a person's country of origin and proof of residence, for example, and therefore by itself is non-compliant with existing frameworks. Systems liked Wordcoin's "proof-of-personhood" do not verify identity but verify uniqueness.***

Worldcoin's "proof-of-personhood" approach, which verifies that each participant is a unique human through biometric scanning while allowing them to remain pseudonymous, is likely to not comply by itself with current know-your-customer ("KYC") and anti-money laundering ("AML") obligations in many jurisdictions. Financial services and virtual asset regulations in the United States, the European Union, India, and numerous other markets require service providers to collect and retain personally identifying information, such as legal name, government-issued identification, and address, particularly if the transaction involve the transfer of financial assets. By design, Worldcoin's business directly conflicts with AML and KYC processes. Interestingly, the processes were developed because of the pseudonymous ecosystem of digital assets. In 2019, the Financial Action Task Force ("FATF") adopted global standards for virtual asset service providers ("VASPs") requiring them to verify their customer's identity and share sender and recipient information (the "Travel Rule"). Jurisdictions that fail to implement the FATF VASP standards risk being placed on the FATF "grey" or "black" lists, which could limit access to global banking systems and international financial assistance.

Worldcoin's current proof-of-personhood model presents an inherent conflict with the existing VASP framework's requirement for traceable, legally verifiable customer identification. Because Worldcoin's business model does not contemplate the manual collection and storage of key information, the process does not comply with AML and KYC laws. This structural tension could lead regulators to view Worldcoin's compliance program as inadequate on its own, even if Worldcoin complies with the spirit of AML and KYC. Given the significant regulatory requirements in many countries and the global importance of FATF and the Travel Rule, Worldcoin may have to either seek an exemption or change in law in order to operate. This process could take months or years, may not ultimately be possible in many countries, and violation of these laws could lead to significant fines. Any of the foregoing could impede Worldcoin's adoption and adversely impact the value of the Company and its common stock.

***Worldcoin is created and transmitted on a public blockchain network, Ethereum, which is a decentralized peer-to-peer network of computers running the Ethereum protocol. If the Ethereum network is disrupted or encounters any unanticipated difficulties, including power outages or grid failures, the value of WLD could be negatively impacted and there could be significant impact on the operation of financial and other markets.***

Worldcoin has no ability to prevent or correct network disruptions, including power outages or grid failures. If the Ethereum network is disrupted or encounters any unanticipated difficulties, then the processing of transactions of Worldcoin may be disrupted, which in turn may prevent us from depositing or withdrawing WLD from our accounts with our custodian or otherwise affecting WLD transactions. Any disruption of the Ethereum network could materially impact the ability of the Company to transfer or sell WLD, and the price of WLD would likely decrease.

In addition, if Worldcoin's business objective were to be widely adopted, the reliance upon Worldcoin's proof-of-personhood model could create significant difficulties in many industries that rely upon the Worldcoin model if there were a power disruption. For example, if Worldcoin's model were to be incorporated in financial transactions, and the Ethereum network was disrupted, it is possible that there could be difficulty for financial markets to operate generally. Users could theoretically lose access to the bank balances or not be able to make financial transactions. Adverse developments tied to the inability to use the Worldcoin network could result in a material reduction in the value of WLD, and could render WLD worthless, which would have a material, adverse impact on the Company and the value of its common stock.

**Risks Related to Cryptocurrency**

***WLD and other digital assets are novel assets, and are subject to significant legal, commercial, regulatory and technical uncertainty, which could materially adversely affect the Company's financial position, operations and prospects.***

WLD and other digital assets, as well as applications on blockchain networks such as Worldcoin, are relatively novel and are subject to significant uncertainty, which could adversely impact their price. The application of state and federal securities laws and other laws and regulations to digital assets and blockchain-based applications is unclear in certain respects, and it is possible that regulators in the United States or foreign countries may interpret or apply existing laws and regulations in a manner that adversely affects the price of WLD or other digital assets, or the ability of blockchain-based applications to operate.

The U.S. federal government, states, regulatory agencies, and foreign countries may also enact new laws and regulations, or pursue regulatory, legislative, enforcement or judicial actions, that could materially impact the price of WLD or the ability of individuals or institutions such as us to own or transfer WLD and utilize blockchain-based applications on networks such as Worldcoin. For example, the U.S. executive branch, the SEC, the European Union's Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation, among others, have been active in recent years, and in the United Kingdom, the Financial Services and Markets Act 2023, or FSMA 2023, became law. It is not possible to predict whether, or when, any of these developments will lead to Congress granting additional authorities to the SEC, Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC"), or other regulators, or whether, or when, any other federal, state or foreign legislative bodies will take any similar actions. It is also not possible to predict the nature of any such additional authorities, how additional legislation or regulatory oversight might impact the ability of digital asset markets to function or the willingness of financial and other institutions to continue to provide services to the digital assets industry, nor how any new regulations or changes to existing regulations might impact the value of digital assets generally and WLD specifically. The consequences of increased regulation of digital assets and digital asset activities could adversely affect the market price of WLD and in turn adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Moreover, the risks of engaging in a digital asset treasury strategy are relatively novel and have created, and could continue to create, complications due to the lack of experience that third parties have with companies engaging in such a strategy, such as increased costs of director and officer liability insurance or the potential inability to obtain such coverage on acceptable terms in the future.

The growth of the digital assets industry in general, and the use and acceptance of WLD in particular, may also impact the price of WLD and is subject to a high degree of uncertainty. The pace of worldwide growth in the adoption and use of the Worldcoin network and WLD may depend, for instance, on public familiarity with digital assets, ease of buying, accessing or gaining exposure to WLD, institutional demand for WLD as an investment asset, the participation of traditional financial institutions in the digital assets industry, consumer demand for WLD as a means of payment, and the availability and popularity of alternatives to WLD. Even if growth in WLD adoption occurs in the near or medium-term, there is no assurance that WLD and Worldcoin network usage will continue to grow over the long term.

Because WLD have no physical existence beyond the record of transactions on the Worldcoin blockchain, a variety of technical factors related to the Worldcoin blockchain could also impact the price of WLD. For example, malicious attacks by validators, inadequate validation and staking rewards to incentivize validating of Worldcoin transactions, hard "forks" of the Worldcoin blockchain into multiple blockchains, difficulties with upgrades to the Worldcoin network and advances in digital computing, algebraic geometry, and quantum computing could undercut the integrity of the Worldcoin blockchain and negatively affect the price of WLD. The liquidity of WLD may also be reduced and damage to the public perception of Worldcoin may occur, if financial institutions were to deny or limit banking services to businesses that hold WLD, provide Worldcoin-related services or accept WLD as payment, which could also decrease the price of WLD.

The liquidity of WLD may also be impacted to the extent that changes in applicable laws and regulatory requirements negatively impact the ability of exchanges and trading venues to provide services for WLD and other digital assets.

***If any of the digital assets that we hold are classified as a security, we may be subject to extensive regulation, which could result in significant costs or force us to cease operations.***

Regulatory changes or interpretations that classify digital assets that we hold as a security under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), could require us to register and comply with additional regulations. Compliance with these requirements could impose extraordinary, non-recurring expenses on our business. If the costs and regulatory burdens become too great, we may be forced to modify or cease certain operations, which could be detrimental to our investors.

The SEC has previously indicated that certain digital assets may be considered securities depending on their structure and use. For instance, if regulators were to determine that WLD meets the Howey Test, it would be a security. The Howey Test is (1) an investment of money, (2) in a common enterprise, (3) with a reasonable expectation of profit, (4) derived from the efforts of others. The application of the Howey Test, and other precedents for the determination of a security, are not always straightforward. Future developments could change the legal status of digital assets that we may hold, requiring us to comply with securities laws. If we fail to do so, we may be forced to discontinue some or all of our business activities, negatively impacting investments in our securities.

If the SEC or other regulators determine that digital assets that we may hold qualify as securities, we may be required to change our operations, wind down our operations, or register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. This classification would subject us to additional periodic reporting, disclosure requirements, and regulatory compliance obligations, significantly increasing our operational costs. Compliance with the requirements of the Investment Company Act applicable to registered investment companies may make it difficult for us to continue our current operations, and this would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if WLD or another digital asset we hold were determined to constitute a security for purposes of the federal securities laws, we would likely take steps to reduce the percentage of WLD or such other digital assets that constitute investment assets under the Investment Company Act. These steps may include, among others, selling WLD that we might otherwise hold for the long term and deploying our cash in non-investment assets, and we may be forced to sell our WLD or other digital assets at unattractive prices, or cease our operations.

Although we do not currently engage in investing, reinvesting, or trading securities, and we do not hold ourselves out as an investment company, we could inadvertently be deemed one under the Investment Company Act. If we are unable to rely on an exclusion, we would be required to register with the SEC, which could impose additional financial and regulatory burdens.

Further, state regulators may conclude that the digital assets we hold are securities under state laws, requiring us to comply with state-specific securities regulations. States like California have stricter definitions of "investment contracts" than the SEC, increasing the risk of additional regulatory scrutiny.

***The classification of digital assets that we hold as a commodity could subject us to additional CFTC regulation, resulting in significant compliance costs or the cessation of certain operations.***

Under current interpretations, WLD are classified as a commodity under the Commodity Exchange Act and are subject to regulation by the CFTC. If our activities require CFTC registration, we may be required to comply with extensive regulatory obligations, which could result in significant costs and operational disruptions. Additionally, current and future legislative or regulatory developments, including new CFTC interpretations, could further impact how WLD and WLD derivatives are classified and traded.

***The lack of legal recourse and insurance for digital assets increases the risk of total loss in the event of theft or destruction.***

Digital assets that we own are not, and digital assets that we acquire in the future will not, be insured against theft, loss or destruction. If an event occurs where we lose our digital assets, whether due to cyberattacks, fraud or other malicious activities, we may not have any viable legal recourse or ability to recover the lost assets. Unlike funds held in insured banking institutions, our digital assets are not protected by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. If our digital assets are lost under circumstances that render another party liable, there is no guarantee that the responsible party will have the financial resources to compensate us. As a result, we and our stockholders could face significant financial losses.

***Worldcoin could be subject to technological obsolescence, including competition from emerging blockchain and artificial intelligence protocols.***

The digital asset ecosystem is characterized by rapid technological innovation, short development cycles, and intense competition among blockchains and related infrastructure providers. Worldcoin faces intense competition among existing companies and new entrants that are currently being developed. Competitors may in the future offer superior offerings to Worldcoin and may attract developers away from the Worldcoin ecosystem. Advancements in AI and blockchain technology are likely to accelerate the development of competing entities, including the development of networks that natively integrate AI into consensus mechanisms and other core features. If Worldcoin is unable to evolve to address such increased competition or if market participants believe that Worldcoin's core technology stack is outdated or less attractive compared with other companies, Worldcoin may be considered technologically obsolete by the next-generation of protocols. The decline in the Worldcoin network would materially impact the market value of WLD and adversely affect the value of our WLD treasury holdings and our stock price.

***The emergence or growth of other digital assets, including those with significant private or public sector backing, including by governments, consortiums or financial institutions, could have a negative impact on the price of WLD and adversely affect the Company's securities.***

Following the launch of the Company's proposed digital asset treasury strategy, as a result of our Worldcoin strategy, we expect our assets to be concentrated in WLD holdings. Accordingly, the emergence or growth of digital assets other than WLD, including those with significant private or public sector backing, including by governments, consortiums or financial institutions, may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

Many of the blockchain applications on large blockchain networks involve the use of "stablecoins," which are designed to maintain a constant price related to or based on some other asset or traditional currency because of, for instance, their issuers' promise to hold high-quality liquid assets (such as U.S. dollar deposits and short-term U.S. treasury securities) equal to the total value of stablecoins in circulation. In July 2025, the U.S. President signed into law the "GENIUS Act," which establishes a federal framework for "payment stablecoins," treating them as payment systems, not securities, and mandating fiat-backed reserves, monthly disclosures, anti-money laundering safeguards, and similar measures. Stablecoins have grown rapidly as a medium of exchange and store of value, particularly on digital asset trading platforms, and their use as an alternative to digital assets such as bitcoin and WLD could expand further as rules are promulgated under the GENIUS Act. As of June 30, 2025, two of the seven largest digital assets by market capitalization were U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoins. If merchants, consumers and decentralized applications choose stablecoins, the demand for the use case for WLD as a medium of exchange could decrease and, therefore, the value of WLD could decline and there could be an adverse impact on the value of the Company's common stock.
