Only the results of operations attributable to the CSI Acquired Assets acquired from CompuSystems, Inc. are included in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements from May 20, 2025, onward. Following the acquisition, the Company began operating the CSI Acquired Assets under the brand name "Event Citadel."

On January 22, 2026, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of API Media Innovations Inc. ("API Media"). API Media is a technology provider specializing in on-site media capture, data collection, and digital engagement services for live outdoor events, including sporting events and large-scale experiential activations. The results of operations of API Media are included in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements from January 22, 2026, onward. Accordingly, the results of operations of API Media are included in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

**Nasdaq Compliance**

On February 24, 2026, the Company received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), which requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share (the "Minimum Bid Price Requirement"), because the closing bid price of the Company's common stock had remained below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days.

Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been granted an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until August 24, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If at any time during the compliance period the closing bid price of the Company's common stock is at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide written confirmation that the Company has regained compliance.

If the Company does not regain compliance by August 24, 2026, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180-calendar day compliance period, provided it satisfies all other continued listing requirements for the Nasdaq Capital Market, other than the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and provides written notice to Nasdaq of its intention to regain compliance, including, if necessary, by effecting a reverse stock split.

If the Company does not regain compliance within the applicable compliance period(s), including any extensions that may be granted by Nasdaq, Nasdaq would provide notice that the Company's common stock would be subject to delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Previously, on May 6, 2025, the Company received notice from Nasdaq that it was not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. The Company subsequently regained compliance on October 10, 2025 after the closing bid price of the Company's common stock remained at or above $1.00 per share for ten consecutive business days, and Nasdaq confirmed the matter had been closed.

(unaudited)

**Basis of Presentation**

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of Datavault AI Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, WISA Technologies Korea, LTD, a Korean limited company, which was established in September 2022, and WiSA, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated.

**Use of Estimates**

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

**Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties**

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents are deposited in demand and money market accounts at one financial institution. At times, such deposits may be in excess of insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash and cash equivalents.

The Company's accounts receivable are derived from revenue earned from customers located throughout the world. The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and may, in certain circumstances, require full or partial payment in advance of shipping. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there was no allowance for credit losses. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had two customers accounting for 65% and 31% of accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had two customers accounting for 65% and 32% of accounts receivable.

The Company had two customers accounting for 14% and 11% of its net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The Company had three customers accounting for 29%, 25% and 18% of its net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The Company's future results of operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could affect the Company's future operating results and cause actual results to vary materially from expectations include, but are not limited to, rapid technological change, continued acceptance of the Company's products, competition from substitute products and larger companies, protection of proprietary technology, strategic relationships and dependence on key individuals.

The Company relies on sole-source suppliers to manufacture some of the components used in its product. The Company's manufacturers and suppliers may encounter problems during manufacturing due to a variety of reasons, any of which could delay or impede their ability to meet demand. The Company is heavily dependent on a single contractor in China for assembly and testing of its products, a single contractor in Japan for the production of its transmit semiconductor chips and a single contractor in China for the production of its receive semiconductor chips.

The Company also generates revenue through the licensing of its proprietary intellectual property and through the provision of live event and media-related services. Revenue derived from intellectual property licensing arrangements may be concentrated among a limited number of counterparties and is subject to risks including the licensee's ability to commercialize the underlying technology, maintain sufficient funding, and comply with contractual payment terms. Additionally, certain licensing arrangements may include variable consideration or milestone-based payments, which could impact the timing and amount of revenue recognized.

**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

For the Three and Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025

(unaudited)

Revenue from the Company's live event and media services business is dependent on the successful execution of events, customer demand, and the continuation of relationships with key customers and partners. This line of business may be subject to seasonality, event timing, and external factors such as economic conditions, venue availability, and potential disruptions to scheduled events. The Company may also rely on a limited number of significant customers, which could result in revenue concentration and variability in operating results from period to period.

**Cash and Cash Equivalents**

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

**Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses**

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoice amount and are generally not interest bearing. The Company reviews its trade receivables aging to identify specific customers with known disputes or collection issues. The Company exercises judgment when determining the adequacy of these reserves as it evaluates historical bad debt trends and changes to customers' financial conditions. No allowance for credit losses was deemed necessary as of March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025.

**Fair Value of Financial Instruments**

Carrying amounts of certain of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities. The carrying value of the Company's borrowings and capital lease liabilities approximates fair value based upon borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans and capital leases with similar terms. The Company's Crypto assets, NYIAX Investment, Convertible note payable and Warrant liability, are the only financial instruments that are adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis.

**Inventories**

Inventories, principally purchased components, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using an average cost, which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis. Inventory in excess of salable amounts and inventory which is considered obsolete based upon changes in existing technology is written off. At the point of loss recognition, a new lower cost basis for that inventory is established and subsequent changes in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration or increase in the new cost basis.

**Deferred Offering Costs**

Deferred offering costs, consisting of legal, accounting and filing fees relating to public offerings, are capitalized. The deferred offering costs will be offset against public offering proceeds upon the effectiveness of an offering. The offering costs for the July ATM were offset with proceeds on a pro-rata basis. In the event that an offering is terminated, deferred offering costs will be expensed. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had capitalized $0.7 million and $5.5 million deferred offering costs, respectively.

**Goodwill and Intangible Assets**

The Company's intangible assets include goodwill and other intangible assets. Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price paid for an acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. Other intangible assets include trademarks and trade names, patents and customer-related intangibles. Indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of goodwill. All other intangible assets are definite-lived intangible assets and are amortized over their respective estimated lives, ranging from 3 to 10 years.

**DATAVAULT AI INC.**

**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

For the Three and Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025

(unaudited)

The Company is required to perform an impairment review of indefinite-lived intangible assets, including goodwill annually, and more frequently under certain circumstances. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are subjected to this annual impairment test during the fourth quarter of the Company's fiscal year. The Company's impairment evaluation consists of a qualitative impairment assessment in which management evaluates whether it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible assets are impaired. If it is determined that it is more likely than not, the Company performs a quantitative impairment test, which compares the fair value of the reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible asset to its carrying value. If the Company determines through the impairment process that the indefinite-lived intangible asset has been impaired, the Company will record the impairment charge in its results of operation. Through March 31, 2026, the Company has never recorded a goodwill impairment charge. In the event that facts and circumstances indicate definite-lived intangible assets may be impaired, the Company evaluates the recoverability and estimated useful lives of such assets. If such indicators are present, recoverability is evaluated based on whether the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows attributable to the asset (group) in question is less than their carrying value. If less, the Company measures the fair value of the asset (group) and recognizes an impairment loss if the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their respective fair values.

**Property and Equipment, Net**

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of two to five years. Leasehold improvements and assets acquired under capital lease are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the useful life or term of the lease. Upon retirement or sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.

**Convertible Financial Instruments**

The Company bifurcates conversion options and warrants from their host instruments and accounts for them as freestanding derivative financial instruments if certain criteria are met. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. An exception to this rule is when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional, as that term is described under applicable U.S. GAAP.

When the Company has determined that the embedded conversion options and warrants should be bifurcated from their host instruments, discounts are recorded for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in the instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the instrument.

Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized to interest expense using the interest method over the earlier of the term of the related debt or their earliest date of redemption.

**Warrants for Common Shares, Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares, and Derivative Financial Instruments**

Warrants for our common shares, convertible redeemable preferred shares, and derivative financial instruments are classified as equity if the contracts (1) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (2) give the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). Contracts which (1) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company), (2) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement), or (3) contain reset provisions that do not qualify for

the scope exception are classified as equity or liabilities. The Company assesses classification of its warrants for shares of common stock and other derivatives at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between equity and liabilities is required.

**Product Warranty**

The Company's products are generally subject to a one-year warranty, which provides for the repair, rework, or replacement of products (at the Company's option) that fail to perform within the stated specification. The Company has assessed its historical claims and, to date, product warranty claims have not been significant. The Company will continue to assess if there should be a warranty accrual going forward.

**Revenue Recognition**

The Company generates revenue from the sale of consumer audio products and components ("Consumer Audio and Components"), registration, data analytics, and lead management services for live events ("Event Citadel Live Events"), and event-based media and broadcasting services ("API Media"). The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, using the following five-step model: (1) identify the contract with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenue when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied.

**Consumer Audio and Components**

Customer purchase orders are considered contracts with customers for Consumer Audio and Components. Revenue, net of expected discounts and allowances, is recognized when control of the promised goods transfers to the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment. The products have been determined to represent the only distinct performance obligations within these arrangements.

Sales to certain distributors may include price adjustments, price protection, stock rotation, and other allowances under certain circumstances. These items are accounted for as variable consideration and are estimated at contract inception based on the expected amount to be provided to customers, which reduces the amount of revenue recognized. Although the Company does not provide customers with a contractual right of return, limited returns may be accepted on a case-by-case basis and are also accounted for as variable consideration. The Company does not expect significant changes to its estimates of variable consideration. Expected costs associated with assurance warranties and claims are recognized as expense as incurred. Taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are both imposed on and concurrent with specific revenue-producing transactions, and that are collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities, are excluded from revenue.

**Event Citadel Live Events**

Event Citadel Live Events contracts generally relate to registration, data analytics, lead management, and event preparation and management services provided for trade shows, conferences, and other live events in both the corporate and government sectors. Contracts are generally multi-year arrangements with terms of approximately three years and typically terminate upon completion of the final event specified within the agreement, unless extended by mutual written consent. Event Citadel contracts generally do not contain termination-for-convenience provisions. Contracts may only be terminated for breach or non-performance, in which case the Company is entitled to compensation for services performed through the termination date.

The Company has concluded that Event Citadel contracts generally contain a single performance obligation consisting of integrated event preparation and management services, as the services are highly interrelated and are not separately identifiable within the context of the contract. The transaction price generally includes fixed service fees, pass-through costs, and other reimbursable expenses, including personnel and supply-related costs incurred on behalf of clients. The Company has concluded it acts as principal in these arrangements and therefore recognizes pass-through and

(unaudited)

reimbursable costs on a gross basis within revenue, with the corresponding expenses recognized within cost of services. Certain contracts also include rebates payable to customers, which are estimated as variable consideration using the most likely amount method and reduce the transaction price.

Revenue is recognized over time as services are rendered because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company's performance. The Company measures progress toward satisfaction of the performance obligation using an input method based on labor hours incurred, which management believes best depicts the transfer of services to the customer.

**API Media**

API Media provides event-based broadcasting, media, and data services for live sporting events, exhibitions, and other large-scale gatherings. Customer contracts generally contain a single integrated performance obligation consisting of on-site event services. Contracts typically require an upfront deposit, with the remaining balance invoiced upon completion of the event. Amounts billed or collected in advance are recorded as contract liabilities until the related services are performed. Revenue is recognized at a point in time upon completion of services at the event, which represents the point at which control of the promised services transfers to the customer and the Company's performance obligation is satisfied. The Company's revenue arrangements do not contain significant financing components.

**Patent and Intellectual Property Licensing**

Revenues generated from patent and intellectual property licensing arrangements are derived from granting customers rights to use the Company's patented technologies and related intellectual property. The Company evaluates each arrangement to determine whether the license represents (i) a right-to-use intellectual property at a point in time or (ii) a right-to-access intellectual property over time in accordance with ASC 606-10-55-58 through 55-64.

Licenses that provide customers with a right-to-use functional intellectual property, where the underlying intellectual property is not expected to be significantly modified or enhanced by the Company during the license term, are recognized at a point in time when control of the license transfers to the customer. Control generally transfers upon execution of the agreement, at which point the customer has the right and ability to use, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the licensed intellectual property.

Certain arrangements include fixed upfront license fees, sales-based or usage-based royalties, or a combination of both. Fixed consideration is recognized in accordance with the timing of the underlying license (point in time or over time). Sales-based or usage-based royalties promised in exchange for a license of intellectual property are recognized in the period in which the subsequent sales or usage occurs in accordance with the sales- or usage-based royalty exception under ASC 606-10-55-65.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, net revenue consisted of the following:

**Contract Balances**

The Company receives payments from customers based on a billing schedule as established in our contracts to partially offset prepayments required by our vendors on long lead time materials as well as for Live Events. Amounts collected prior to the fulfillment of the performance obligation are considered contract liabilities and classified as customer advances within accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Contract assets are recorded when the Company has a conditional right to consideration for our completed performance under the contracts. Accounts receivables are recorded when the right to this consideration becomes unconditional. The Company has $1.3 million and $1.7 million of contract assets as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, which are recorded in the current assets section on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company expects to collect 100% of the contract assets as of March 31, 2026 in the next twelve months. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recognized $907,000 of revenue from contract liabilities that were included in accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025.

**Revenue by Geographic Area**

In general, revenue disaggregated by geography (See Note 11) is aligned according to the nature and economic characteristics of our business and provides meaningful disaggregation of our results of operations. Since we operate in one segment, all financial segment and product line information can be found in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

**Practical Expedients and Exemptions**

As part of our adoption of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company elected to use the following practical expedients: (i) not to adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component when the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between our transfer of a promised product or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that product or service will be one year or less; (ii) to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract when the amortization period would have been one year or less; and (iii) not to assess whether promised goods or services are performance obligations if they are immaterial in the context of the contract with the customer.

In addition, the Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less.

**Stock-Based Compensation**

The Company measures and recognizes the compensation expense for restricted stock units and restricted stock awards granted to employees and directors based on the fair value of the award on the grant date.

Restricted stock units give an employee an interest in Company stock but they have no tangible value until vesting is complete. Restricted stock units and restricted stock awards are equity classified and measured at the fair market value of the underlying stock at the grant date and recognized as expense over the related service or performance period. The Company elected to account for forfeitures as they occur. The fair value of stock awards is based on the quoted price of our common stock on the grant date. Compensation cost for restricted stock units and restricted stock awards is recognized using the straight-line method over the requisite service period.

**Crypto Assets**

We hold crypto assets primarily for operational purposes and to support short-term liquidity needs within our normal operating cycle. We reasonably expect to convert such assets to cash or utilize them in operations within a short period of time, typically within one year. All of our crypto assets are held in Bitcoin. Consistent with this intent and realization pattern, we have classified all crypto assets as current assets in our consolidated balance sheets in accordance with ASC 210-10 and ASC 350-60.

We do not hold crypto assets for long-term investment, speculative, or collateral purposes, and we do not engage in trading activities involving crypto assets. Our crypto asset holdings are considered less liquid than cash and cash equivalents and may not serve as an equivalent source of liquidity during periods of market stress.

**Research and Development**

Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred and include salaries, consulting expenses and an allocation of facility costs.

**Advertising Costs**

Advertising costs are charged to sales and marketing expenses as incurred. Advertising costs for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were $1.7 million and $0.1 million respectively.

**Comprehensive Loss**

Comprehensive loss represents the changes in equity of an enterprise, other than those resulting from stockholder transactions. Accordingly, comprehensive loss may include certain changes in equity that are excluded from net loss. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company's comprehensive loss is the same as its net loss.

**Foreign Currency**

The financial position and results of operations of the Company's foreign operations are measured using currencies other than the U.S. dollar as their functional currencies. Accordingly, for these operations all assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rates as of the respective balance sheet date. Expense items are translated using the weighted average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Cumulative gains and losses from the translation of these operations' financial statements are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity, while foreign currency transaction gains or losses, resulting from re-measuring local currency to the U.S. dollar are recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations in Other expense, net and were not material for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

**Net Loss per Common Share**

Basic and diluted net loss per common share is presented in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities. The Company considers all series of convertible preferred stock to be participating securities. Under the two-class method, the net loss attributable to common stockholders is not allocated to the convertible preferred stock as the holders of the convertible preferred stock do not have a contractual obligation to share in the losses of the Company. Under the two-class method, net income would be attributed to common stockholders and participating securities based on their participation rights.

Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares and potentially dilutive common share equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock and if-converted methods. For purposes of

the diluted net loss per common share calculation, warrants exercisable for common stock, restricted stock units and shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible notes payable are considered to be potentially dilutive securities. Net loss is adjusted for any deemed dividends to preferred stockholders to compute income available to common stockholders.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, warrants to purchase 9,683,027 shares of common stock, 6 shares underlying shares of restricted stock units, 1,050,000 shares underlying shares of restricted stock units issued under an inducement grant, 18,159,535 shares underlying restricted stock awards and 437,501 shares under two grants of restricted stock under inducement grants have been excluded from the calculation of net loss per common share because the inclusion would be antidilutive.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, warrants to purchase 15,204,647 shares of common stock, 12 shares of restricted stock, 1,200,000 shares underlying shares of restricted stock units issued under an inducement grant, 7,014,260 shares underlying restricted stock awards, and 64,183 shares of two grants of restricted stock under inducement grants have been excluded from the calculation of net loss per common share because the inclusion would be antidilutive.

**Income Taxes**

Deferred taxes are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is "more-likely-than-not" that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company has recognized valuation allowances against its deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

The Company uses a comprehensive model for recognizing, measuring, presenting, and disclosing in the condensed consolidated financial statements tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is "more-likely-than-not" that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the "more-likely-than-not" test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Company recognizes interest accrued and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company recognized no interest and penalties.

**Costs to Fulfill Contracts**

The Company capitalizes certain pre-show indirect costs that are incurred to fulfill customer contracts when those costs relate directly to the contract, generate or enhance resources that will be used to satisfy future performance obligations, and are expected to be recoverable. Capitalized costs primarily include indirect pre-show setup activities, such as venue deposits, equipment preparation, design and technical pre-production efforts, and other pre-show fulfillment activities. The Company expenses all direct costs related to the execution of the show and all post-show costs as incurred, as those activities do not meet the criteria for capitalization under ASC 340-40.

Capitalized pre-show costs are amortized on a systematic basis that is consistent with the transfer of the related services to the customer, which the Company determines based on the percentage of completion of each contract. For example, if a contract is 20% complete as of the reporting date, 20% of the associated capitalized indirect pre-show costs are amortized. Amortization of costs to fulfill a contract is recorded in cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

At March 31, 2026, the balance of capitalized costs to fulfill contracts was $0.4 million, all of which is classified as a current asset. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recognized $0.6 million of amortization related to capitalized contract fulfillment costs. No impairment losses were recognized during the period.

**Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements**

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09 – Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" to help investors better understand an entity's exposure to potential changes in jurisdictional tax legislation and the ensuing risks and opportunities. Furthermore, the update improves disclosures used to assess income tax information that affects cash flow forecasts and capital allocation decisions. The update is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, on a prospective basis but does not impact interim financial statements. The Company has adopted this standard as of January 1, 2025 and the adoption did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-08, Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60) ("new crypto assets standard"). The new crypto assets standard requires certain crypto assets to be measured at fair value separately on the balance sheet with changes reported in the statement of operations each reporting period. The new crypto assets standard also enhances the other intangible asset disclosure requirements by requiring the name, cost basis, fair value, and number of units for each significant crypto asset holding. The Company first received crypto assets during the third quarter of 2025 and therefore adopted ASU 2023-08 as of that date. Because the Company had no crypto asset holdings prior to that period, no retrospective application or recast of prior-period financial statements was required. The adoption did not have an impact on previously reported results.

In March 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-02, which amended ASC 450-10-S99-1 to remove the text of SAB Topic 5.FF, "Accounting for Obligations to Safeguard Crypto-Assets an Entity Holds for Its Platform Users." The amendment reflects the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") staff's issuance of SAB 122, which rescinded SAB 121 in January 2025. The adoption of ASU 2025-02 did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which simplifies the measurement of expected credit losses for accounts receivable and contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under ASC 606. The Company adopted the guidance effective January 1, 2026. The adoption of ASU 2025-05 did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments, which clarifies the accounting for induced conversions of convertible debt instruments. The Company adopted the guidance effective January 1, 2026. The adoption of ASU 2024-04 did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

**Recently Issued and Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements**

ASU 2025-06 Internal-use software issued in September 2025, ASU 2025-06 updates guidance in Subtopic 350-40 to streamline accounting for internal-use software, particularly for agile development methods. This change was a priority for stakeholders who found it difficult to differentiate project stages for capitalizing development costs in iterative environments. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the pronouncement to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2024-03 Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses: The amendments in this Update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The interim effective date was amended by Update 2025-01 "*Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures: Clarifying the Effective Date*" ("ASU 2025-01"), clarifying the interim reporting date when an entity must adopt ASU 2024-03. According to ASU 2025-01, ASU 2024-03 is effective for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company has reviewed other recent accounting pronouncements and concluded they are either not applicable to the business, or no material effect is expected on the consolidated financial statements as a result of future adoption.

**DV Convertible Note**

In connection with the acquisition of certain assets (the "EOS Acquired Assets") from EOS Technologies Holdings Inc (f/k/a Data Vault Holdings Inc.) ("EOS Holdings"), which closed on December 31, 2024 (the "EOS" Asset Acquisition"), the Company issued a convertible note to EOS Holdings in the principal amount of $10.0 million due on the third anniversary of the closing on December 31, 2027 (the "EOS Convertible Note"). The Company agreed to pay interest to EOS Holdings on the aggregate unconverted and then outstanding principal amount of the note at the rate of five and twelve hundredths percent (5.12%) per annum, accruing from the closing.

The EOS Convertible Note could be converted at EOS Holdings' option, partially or entirely, into shares of common stock, any time after the maturity date until the EOS Convertible Note is fully paid off. The EOS Convertible Note uses a conversion price equaling to seventy-five percent (75%) of the average VWAP (as defined in the EOS Convertible Note) during the ten (10) consecutive trading days ending on the trading day that is immediately prior to the conversion date subject to a floor price of $1.116 per share. At EOS Holding's sole discretion, upon a change of control (as defined in the EOS Convertible Note), the Company shall (i) cause any successor entity to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under the EOS Convertible Note, (ii) pay or cause to be paid to EOS Holdings the outstanding balance under the EOS Convertible Note in cash, or (iii) pay, at the closing of such change of control, in full satisfaction of the Company's obligations under the EOS Convertible Note, an amount in cash or equivalent common stock to the amount EOS Holdings would have been paid if it had converted the outstanding balance under the EOS Convertible Note into shares of common stock immediately prior to such closing, at the conversion price.

When the Company entered into capital raising or financing transactions, including the issuance by the Company of shares of common stock or common stock equivalents (as defined in the EOS Convertible Note) for cash consideration, indebtedness or a combination of units thereof (each, a "Subsequent Financing"), then the Company was required first to pay to EOS Holdings at least 10% of the gross proceeds of such Subsequent Financing to redeem all or a portion of the EOS Convertible Note, plus accrued but unpaid interest, plus liquidated damages, if any, and any other amounts then owing to EOS Holdings.

On February 14, 2025, the Company paid a portion of principal and interest of $0.4 million, net, as a result of the February 2025 Public Offering (defined below in Note 6). For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company

paid an aggregate of $3.9 million in cash resulting in the EOS Convertible Note being paid in full. The ending balance and fair value as of December 31, 2025 was $3.9 million.

In January 2026, the Company fully repaid the outstanding balance of the EOS Convertible Note. The repayment satisfied the remaining principal and any accrued interest outstanding under the note as of the repayment date. Following the payoff, the EOS Convertible Note was extinguished and no further amounts remain outstanding under the agreement.

The Company elected the fair value method for the EOS Convertible Note at issuance of $10.0 million as of December 31, 2025 due to the embedded derivatives identified within the agreement requiring recurring fair value measurements. The note is valued using level 3 inputs. See Note 5, Fair Value Measurements for further information on inputs.

*CSI Convertible Notes*

As of December 31, 2025, the Company's outstanding debt included two convertible notes issued in connection with the acquisition of CSI which closed on May 20, 2025. Interest on the First Convertible Note and principal on the Second Convertible Note was accrued at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum. Interest began accruing from the six-month anniversary of the closing on the First Convertible Note and from the nine-month anniversary of the closing on the Second Convertible Note on the principal balance no less frequently than quarterly per calendar quarter. The payment of the accrued interest shall occur on the last business day of each calendar quarter.

On March 18, 2026, the Company entered into the settlement agreement with the holders of the First Convertible Note to settle the debt including accrued interest in the aggregate amount of $5.2 million. As of March 31, 2026, the Company has paid $2.0 million of the principal in payments scheduled in the settlement agreement to occur in March 2026 and is required per the settlement agreement to pay the remaining $3.2 million in principal and accrued interest in scheduled payments to occur in April 2026 and May 2026. The balance is included in Short-term promissory notes on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026. The Company recorded a debt extinguishment expense of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 equal to the difference of the settlement amount due and the carrying value of the First Convertible Note at the settlement date. The extinguishment expense is recorded on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

The Second Convertible Note can be converted, partially or entirely, into shares of common stock, any time after the nine-month anniversary of the closing until the Second Convertible Note is fully paid off. The Second Convertible Note use a conversion price equaling to the average VWAP during the thirty (30) consecutive trading days ending on the trading day that is immediately prior to the conversion date subject to a floor price of $1.40 per share and ceiling price of $2.50 per share (the "Conversion Price"). The entire outstanding principal and accrued interest shall automatically be converted into shares of common stock on the maturity date at the Conversion Price.

The CSI Convertible Notes carrying value at March 31, 2026 was $6.5 million, net of a discount of $1.7 million. Discount accretion expense was $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

**5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Fair Value Measurements**

The Company measures the fair value of financial instruments using a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. Each level of input has different levels of subjectivity and difficulty involved in determining fair value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 1 – Inputs used to measure fair value are unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for the identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Therefore, determining fair value for Level 1 investments generally does not require significant judgment, and the estimation is not difficult.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 2 – Pricing is provided by third-party sources of market information obtained through investment advisors. The Company does not adjust for or apply any additional assumptions or estimates to the pricing information received from its advisors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 3 – Inputs used to measure fair value are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the use of significant management judgment. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management's estimates of market participant assumptions. The determination of fair value for Level 3 instruments involves the most management judgment and subjectivity. The Company's financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 by level within the fair value hierarchy, are as follows:

A summary of the common stock and warrant activity and related information for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 is provided as follows.

<u>February 2024 Warrants Black Scholes Value Payout</u>

On December 31, 2024 on the closing of the EOS Asset Acquisition, a provision requiring a Black Scholes Value payout was triggered in the remaining outstanding February 2024 Warrants. This provision was triggered because the EOS Asset Acquisition met the criteria for a fundamental change as described in the warrant agreement. The Black Scholes Value payout was valued at $1.96 per share and there was an aggregate number of warrants outstanding of 328,483. In order to receive the payout, holders must elect within 30 days of the fundamental change otherwise the warrants convert to warrants in the Company. The warrants were equity classified prior to the close of the EOS Asset Acquisition and were reclassified to liability treatment as a result of the payout liability on December 31, 2024. In the three months ended March 31, 2025, 316,415 warrants received requests from the holders to receive the Black Scholes Value payout and thus were paid in cash $622,000 with the remaining unrequested warrants being reclassified to equity treatment as the January 30, 2025 deadline passed and they reverted to equity warrants. The Company recognized a gain of $8,000 as a result of reclassifying the warrants to equity.

<u>February 2025 Registered Direct Transaction</u>

On February 14, 2025, the Company closed an offering (the "February 2025 Offering") pursuant to a securities purchase agreement (the "February 2025 Purchase Agreement") with certain investors (the "February 2025 Investors"). In the February 2025 Offering, the Company issued and sold to the February 2025 Investors in a registered direct offering, (a) an aggregate of 4,757,126 shares (the "February 2025 Shares") of common stock of the Company, and (b) common stock purchase warrants (the "February 2025 Warrants", and together with the Shares, the "February 2025 Securities") exercisable for an aggregate of up to 4,757,126 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $1.14 per share (the "February 2025 Warrant Shares") at a combined offering price of $1.14 per share and accompanying February 2025 Warrant, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $5.4 million.

The February 2025 Warrants are immediately exercisable upon issuance and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the issuance date of the February 2025 Warrants. The February 2025 Warrants may be exercised, in certain circumstances, on a cashless basis pursuant to the formula contained in the February 2025 Warrants.

The grant date fair value of the 4,757,126 warrants was approximately $5.3 million, which were treated as equity instruments. The fair value of such warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes Model based on the following weighted average assumption: common stock price on the date of grant of $1.22; expected yield of 0%; expected volatility of 143.4%; risk-free interest rate of 4.3% and expected life of 5 years.

**Contingencies**

In the normal course of business, the Company may become involved in legal proceedings. The Company will accrue a liability for such matters when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When only a range of a possible loss can be established, the most probable amount in the range is accrued. If no amount within this range is a better estimate than any other amount within the range, the minimum amount in the range is accrued. The accrual for a litigation loss contingency might include, for example, estimates of potential damages, outside legal fees and other directly related costs expected to be incurred.

The Company's management does not believe that any such matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a materially adverse effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

the Additional Shares shall be subject to lock-up restrictions for two (2) years from the issuance (the "Additional Lock-Up Agreement"), (ii) a lock-up agreement in respect of the consideration shares (the "Consideration Shares") to be issued by the Company to NYIAX pursuant to that certain White Label, Co-Marketing and Intellectual Property Cross-License Agreement, by and between the Company and NYIAX, dated as of March 16, 2025, pursuant to which the Consideration Shares shall be subject to lock-up restrictions for one (1) year from the issuance (the "Consideration Lock-Up Agreement"), and (iii) a lock-up agreement in respect of the Closing Shares to be issued by the Company to NYIAX pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, pursuant to which the Closing Shares shall be subject to lock-up restrictions for one (1) year from the issuance (the "Closing Lock-Up Agreement", and together with the Datavault Lock-Up Agreement, the Additional Lock-Up Agreement, and the Consideration Lock-Up Agreement, the "Lock-Up Agreements").

The Company accounted for the NYIAX transactions as a collaborative arrangement and allocated fair values of exchanged assets on their relative fair value. The common stock consideration of aggregate of 7,530,000 shares, including the 2,000,000 contingently issuance shares which are considered probable to be issued, was measured at the closing date of April 9, 2025 for an aggregate fair value of $4.9 million and is recorded to additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The NYIAX common shares received in the aggregate of 2,150,000 were valued at $4.3 million and are recorded as an investment at fair value under the measurement alternative of ASC 321 at the close date fair value of $2 per share on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company recognized an impairment on the investment of $2.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026. See Note 5 for details. The fair value method was determined due to the Company not having significant influence over NYIAX. IP licenses received from NYIAX represents the net amount of the shares exchanged and is expensed to research and development of $0.6 million on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The Company's IP license granted to NYIAX represents functional intellectual property accounted for under ASC 606 with point-in-time revenue recognition. Initial value allocated of $2.5 million is based on the fair value of the NYIAX Convertible Note. However, as the collaborative arrangement includes consideration paid to the customer, NYIAX, for distinct goods and services for which the fair value was not reasonably estimable, the transaction price was reduced for any consideration paid in excess of goods or services with a readily determinable fair value, the NYIAX Investment. Accordingly, the transaction price was reduced to zero as the excess fair value of the consideration paid to the customer was in excess of $2.5 million.

The contingently issuance shares are accounted for under ASC 718, Share-based payments as an equity-classified share-based payment to a customer. Due to the probable achievement of the performance condition on the grant date, the shares are initially recorded at the grant date fair value of $1.3 million with no subsequent remeasurement.

*NYIAX Agreement and Plan of Merger*

On March 18, 2026, the Company, DVLT Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("Merger Sub"), and NYIAX entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "NYIAX Merger Agreement"), dated March 18, 2026.

The Company estimates the Merger Consideration to be $61.6 million based on an aggregate fair value using the closing stock price on March 17, 2026 of $0.78 per share.

Pursuant to the NYIAX Merger Agreement if, at any time during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, the surviving corporation (as defined in the NYIAX Merger Agreement), or the Company, executed and announced a definitive commercial, strategic, joint venture, licensing, partnership, or other bona fide revenue generating or value enhancing agreement with a trading market (a "Trading Market Transaction"), approved by the the board of directors of the Company, then the Company shall issue to the Merger Partner Stockholders, on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective ownership immediately prior to the Effective Time, an aggregate of 13,000,000 duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable restricted shares of common stock (the "Earn-Out Shares").

**11.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Segment Information**

The Company operates in one business segment. Our chief decision-maker, the President and Chief Executive Officer, evaluates our performance based on company-wide condensed consolidated results.

Operating segments have been identified based on the financial information utilized by the Company's Chief Executive Officer, the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"). The CODM uses net income as a measure of profitability to assess segment performance and deciding on how to allocate resources such as capital investments, share repurchases, and acquisitions. The CODM does not use or receive total assets by segment to make decisions regarding resources; therefore, the total asset disclosure by segment has not been included.

("Vivasor"), a related party, in consideration for our purchase of 8,163,265 shares of Vivasor's Series A common stock, at a purchase price of $6.125 per share for aggregate consideration of $50 million, pursuant to a Subscription Agreement by and between the Company and Vivasor, dated as of April 16, 2026.

**Scilex Binding Term Sheet**

On April 26, 2026, the Company entered into a binding term sheet (the "Scilex Term Sheet") with Scilex, which sets forth the principal terms and conditions of a proposed cash contribution and revenue participation arrangement between the Company and Scilex (the "Scilex Transaction"). Pursuant to the Scilex Term Sheet, and subject to the finalization of mutually agreeable definitive transaction documents and, ultimately, the satisfaction of certain customary closing conditions, to be contained therein, it is expected that Scilex will make an upfront cash contribution to the Company in the amount $120.0 million, to be paid in multiple closings, with the final closing to occur no later than December 31, 2026 (the "Upfront Payment"). The Company will use the proceeds from the Upfront Payment exclusively to fund the deployment of our quantum-ready graphics processing units ("GPUs") infrastructure across an estimated 100 cities in the United States (the "Quantum-Ready Edge Network"), including build-out, equipment, related working capital, and reasonable overhead expenses directly attributable thereto.

In consideration of the Upfront Payment, the Company would become obligated to pay Scilex an amount equal to (i) 30% of gross revenues recognized by the Company attributable exclusively to the Quantum-Edge Nextwork (the "Network Revenues") until the aggregate amount of such payments to Scilex equals $250.0 million (the "Interim Cap"), (ii) from and after the time that the Interim Cap has been reached, 15% of Network Revenues until aggregate amount of such payments to Scilex (when combined with amounts applied to the Interim Cap) equals $1.2 billion (the "Additional Cap"), and (iii) from and after the time that the Additional Cap has been reached, 5% of Network Revenues during the remaining lifetime of the GPU's purchased using the Upfront Payment.

The Term Sheet contemplates the execution of definitive agreements containing customary representations, warranties, covenants, indemnification provisions, and closing conditions. There can be no assurance that definitive agreements will be executed or that the proposed transaction will be consummated on the terms currently contemplated, or at all. The proposed transaction remains subject to further negotiation, regulatory and corporate approvals, market conditions, and other customary conditions outside the Company's control.

On April 26, 2026, the Company entered into a binding letter of intent (the "CyberCatch LOI") with CyberCatch Holdings, Inc. ("CyberCatch"), under which the Company and CyberCatch will enter into a definitive agreement for the Company to acquire 100% of CyberCatch in an all-stock transaction structured as a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "CyberCatch Acquisition"). Under the CyberCatch LOI and subject to a definitive agreement, the Company will acquire 100% of CyberCatch's issued and outstanding common shares (being approximately 26.8 million shares) in exchange for approximately 49.9 million newly issued shares of the Company's common stock at CAD $5.11 per CyberCatch share, which implies an aggregate value to CyberCatch's issued and outstanding common shares of CAD $136.8 million. All issued and outstanding CyberCatch securities convertible into or exercisable for CyberCatch common shares will be exchanged for shares of the Company's common stock on a cashless exercise basis at a deemed value of USD $2.00 per share of common stock. Upon closing of the transaction, subject to customary board, stock exchange and any necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals, it is anticipated that the Company's stockholders will hold approximately 92.48% and CyberCatch shareholders approximately 7.52% of the Company's outstanding equity. It is anticipated that CyberCatch will operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company from San Diego, California, and CyberCatch founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer Sai Huda will serve as President of the subsidiary, reporting to Nathaniel T. Bradley, the Company's Chief Executive Officer.

**Registered Direct Offering**

On May 3, 2026, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with certain institutional investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue in a registered direct offering (the "Offering") an aggregate of 109,090,910 shares of common stock at an offering price of $0.55 per share for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the Offering of approximately $60.0 million, before deducting the Placement Agent's (as defined below) fees and offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for the deployment of its quantum-ready graphics processing unit edge network, including build-out and equipment, as well as working capital and general corporate purposes. The Offering closed on May 5, 2026.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed that, subject to certain exceptions, from the date of the prospectus supplement until forty-five (45) days after the closing of the Offering, (i) neither it nor any of its subsidiaries shall (a) issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) or (b) file any registration statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, and (ii) it shall not enter into a Variable Rate Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

In connection with the Offering, the Company entered into a Placement Agency Agreement, dated as of May 3, 2026, with Titan Partners Group LLC, a division of American Capital Partners, LLC (the "Placement Agent"), pursuant to which the Placement Agent agreed to serve as the sole placement agent for the issuance and sale of securities of the Company pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. As compensation for such services, the Company agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash fee of $4.2 million and issue to the Placement Agent, or its designees, warrants to purchase up to 5,454,545 shares of Common Stock (the "Placement Agent Warrants") at the closing of the Offering. The Placement Agent Warrants have a term of five years from the date of the prospectus supplement and have an exercise price of $0.6325 per share. The Company also agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent for legal and other expenses incurred by it in connection with the offering in an aggregate amount up to $60,000. The warrants have a five-year term. The Shares, the Placement Agent Warrants and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants (the "Placement Agent Warrant Shares") were offered and sold by the Company pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-294502), which was originally filed with the SEC on March 20, 2026, and was declared effective on March 25, 2026, a base prospectus forming a part of the effective registration statement dated March 25, 2026 and a prospectus supplement dated May 3, 2026.

being deployed by several key customers, including Bang & Olufsen, Harmon Kardon, Klipsch and other leading electronics manufacturer.

**Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025**

***Revenue***

Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $3.4 million, an increase of $2.8 million or 443% compared to the revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of $0.6 million. The increase was a result of the acquisition of CSI.

***Gross Profit and Operating Expenses***

**Gross Profit**

Gross profit for three months ended March 31, 2026 was $0.1 million compared to a gross profit of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The gross profit as a percent of sales was 3% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the gross profit of 11% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in gross profit is due to the inclusion of lower-margin revenue as a result of the acquisition of CSI.

**Research and Development**

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $5.7 million, an increase of $3.3 million, compared to the research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of $2.4 million. The increase in research and development expenses is primarily driven by IBM Watsonx AI and SanQtum AI subscription licenses of $3.1 million and higher legal expenses of $0.3 million.

**Sales and Marketing**

Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $6.6 million, an increase of $5.1 million compared to the sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of $1.5 million. The increase in sales and marketing expenses is primarily related to an increase in headcount resulting in increased salaries and wages, benefits and stock-based compensation of $1.5 million, an increase in advertising and sponsorship projects of $2.8 million and consulting expenses of $0.4 million.

**General and Administrative**

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $18.7 million, an increase of $13.1 million compared to general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of $5.6 million. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily driven by higher headcount, resulting in additional salaries, wages, commissions, benefits, and stock-based compensation of $4.4 million; consulting and legal expenses of $1.6 million and $2.5 million respectively; higher amortization of intangibles assets of $0.8 million related to the CSI acquisition closed on May 20, 2025, the IP acquisitions from Turner Global Media LLC and Web Access LLC closed in July 2025, the IP acquisition closed on January 04, 2026 and the API acquisition closed on January 22, 2026. The increase also reflects higher acquisition-related expenses and investor relations costs of $0.6 million each.

**Interest Expense, net**

Interest expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $1.1 million, an increase of $1.0 million compared to the interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of $0.1 million. Interest expense increased due to an increase in borrowings.

**Debt Extinguishment**

Debt extinguishment expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $1.7 million, representing the difference between the settlement amount due and the carrying value of the First Convertible Note on the settlement date.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#idb7838d3556f4adda51bfcd01be6e154_7)</u>

**Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability**

Change in fair value of warrant liability for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was zero compared to $17,000 of income for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

**Impairment of investment in nonmarketable security**

Impairment of investment in marketable security for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $2.5 million compared to none for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This impairment increase was primarily due to the decline in value of our investment in NYIAX.

**Other Expense, net**

Other expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $16.8 million compared to $29,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This increase was primarily due to realized and unrealized gains and losses on crypto assets.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2026 were $2.2 million compared to $2.0 million, as of December 31, 2025.

We recorded a net loss of $53.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and used net cash in operating activities of $8.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 vs $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Excluding non-cash adjustments, the primary reasons for the increase in the use of net cash from operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2026, was related to an increase in the net loss.

Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 totaled approximately $13.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The increase was due to the acquisition of API on January 22, 2026.

Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 totaled approximately $22.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively. The increase of $18.9 million of cash provided by financing activities is primarily attributable to an increase of $25.0 million provided by proceeds from equity offerings, offset by and increase of debt payments of $6.6 million.

We have financed our operations to date primarily through the issuance of equity securities, proceeds from the exercise of warrants to purchase common stock, sale of debt instruments and through the sale of Bitcoin. As of May 15, 2026, we utilized our July ATM program to sell common stock for net proceeds of $32.4 million. We raised net proceeds of $55.8 million on May 4, 2026 in a registered direct offering. We will need to raise additional proceeds via the issuance of equity securities and/or the sale of debt instruments in the remainder of 2026 to fund operations. In addition to raising proceeds from the issuance of equity securities/debt instruments, the Company has sufficient cash and cash equivalents, BTC, and other resources for the next 12 months.

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements**

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

**Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.**

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

**Item 4. Controls and Procedures.**

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#idb7838d3556f4adda51bfcd01be6e154_7)</u>

time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules and forms and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

**Changes in Internal Controls**

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
