(xi) On June 20, 2025, Yorkville effected a foreclosure under the Triller Pledge Agreement. This action was undertaken by Yorkville following its allegations of various events of default by the Company under the terms of the Yorkville Convertible Promissory Note, dated June 28, 2024, and other related transaction documents, including the Second A&R SEPA. Yorkville had previously sought to accelerate payment of all amounts due under the Yorkville Convertible Promissory Note. Although the Company has not received a formal notice of foreclosure from Yorkville, the Company became aware through a transfer agent statement that 3,000,000 shares of common stock of BKFC, previously pledged by Triller Hold Co LLC as collateral, were transferred to Yorkville on June 20, 2025. These 3,000,000 shares represented a 17.66% ownership interest in BKFC as specifically pledged to Yorkville as of June 20, 2025. As a direct result of this transfer, the Company’s beneficial ownership in BKFC became 38.13%, based on BKFC’s total outstanding shares. Following this change in ownership, the majority stockholders of BKFC approved amendments to BKFC’s certificate of incorporation and its Stockholders Agreement, which included the removal of the Company’s board designation rights. These amendments became effective on July 1, 2025.

 

(xii) On June 30, 2025, the Company received a written notice (the “Notice”) from Nasdaq, notifying that the Company had publicly traded under $1.00 per share for a period of 30 consecutive trading days or more, which failed to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A). The Notice had no immediate effect but, before December 29, 2025, the Company was required to regain compliance by trading at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days. Otherwise, after the date, subject to other requirements and conditions, the Company may proceed to delisting procedures. As of the date of the consolidated financial statements, the Company is still consecutively trading under $1.00, directors of the Company are investigating actions, where appropriate, to regain the compliance, by December 29, 2025.
(xiii)On June 30, 2025, the Company and Green Ventures entered into Amendment No. 5 to the Green Ventures Note, in which Green Ventures agreed to (i) amend certain terms and conditions of the Green Ventures Note, including reducing the interest rates for the Green Ventures Note to 8%, reducing the rate of the default interest rate to 11%, extending the maturity date to June 6, 2026 and (ii) waive all existing events of default under the Green Ventures Note (collectively, the “Requested Amendments and Waivers”). As consideration for granting the Requested Amendments and Waivers, Triller has agreed to provide additional collateral to secure the outstanding obligations under the Green Ventures Note, and to procure its affiliate, TAG Technologies, to guarantee the due and punctual performance and payment obligations under the Green Ventures Note.

On October 14, 2025, the Company received a delisting determination letter (the “Determination Letter”) from Nasdaq indicating that, unless the Company timely requests a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), the Company’s common stock would be subject to suspension and delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market at the opening of business on October 23, 2025 due to the Company’s non-compliance with Nasdaq’s filing requirements set forth in Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Listing Rule”) for its failure to timely file its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and its Forms 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively. The Company has requested to appeal the delisting determination and will attend the hearing to demonstrate its ability to regain and sustain long-term compliance.

 

On November 17, 2025, the Company received an additional delisting determination letter (the “Additional Determination Letter”) from Nasdaq indicating that since it failed to timely file its Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2025, this serves as an additional basis for delisting.

 

Following a hearing held on November 25, 2025, the Panel has granted the Company an exception period subject to the Company satisfying the following conditions: 

 

File 2024 Form 10-K and delinquent Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, June 30, and September 30, 2025 on or before December 24, 2025;

 

Regain compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid-price requirement on or before February 27, 2026; and

 

File its 2025 Form 10-K on or before March 31, 2026.

 

(xv) On December 26, 2025, the Company received a determination letter from the Panel confirming the suspension trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market effective at the opening of the market on December 30, 2025 and delisting of the Company’s securities. This decision stems from the Company not having been able to file two periodic reports by a deadline of December 24, 2025 set by the Panel.
