Note 2 – Management’s Liquidity Plans

The Company’s primary source of liquidity has historically been cash generated from equity offerings and debt, along with periodic revenue generated from licensing agreements. Under ASC Subtopic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern, the Company has the responsibility to evaluate whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about its ability to meet future financial obligations as they become due within one year after the date that these financial statements are issued. Since the Company’s inception, it has had a history of recurring net losses from operations, recurring use of cash in operating activities and working capital deficits.

As of December 31, 2024, there was substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the date the financial statements were issued. This was based on a significant working capital deficiency, significant historical losses and the need to raise additional funds to meet the Company’s obligations and sustain its operations. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company raised significant capital through both an ATM offering and a private placement of Series A preferred stock (see Note 13 – Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit). A significant amount of the proceeds generated from these capital raises was used to purchase digital assets in connection with the launch of the Company’s new long-term strategic treasury of HYPE. The Company also extended the maturity date of its Loan and Security Agreement (see Note 9 – Notes Payable). These actions have alleviated the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern that existed at December 31, 2024.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of approximately $6.4 million and working capital of $4.5 million. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $45.3 million and $49.8 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company used cash in operating activities of approximately $14.8 million and $30.1 million, respectively. Based on the Company’s current financial condition and forecast of cash flow needs for the next twelve months, Management expects that the Company’s existing resources will be sufficient to enable the Company to fund its anticipated level of operations through one year from the date of this report.

The Company’s financial condition is substantially dependent on the market price and liquidity of HYPE tokens, which are subject to extreme volatility and limited trading venues. Substantially all of the Company’s treasury assets are concentrated in HYPE tokens, the native cryptocurrency of the Hyperliquid protocol. HYPE tokens have experienced significant price volatility, and the Company’s financial results and carrying value of its digital assets will fluctuate materially based on HYPE token price movements. The Company depends on the continued success and adoption of the Hyperliquid protocol for the value of its treasury holdings.

The Company plans to continue to pursue additional capital through its at-the-market offering programs in the future, however, such funding may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. Although Management believes that such capital sources will continue to be available, there can be no assurances that financing will be available to the Company when needed, or if available, on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate financing on terms that are satisfactory to the Company, when the Company requires it, the Company’s ability to continue to grow or support the business and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited, which may adversely affect the Company’s business plans.

While the Company plans to hold its digital assets as part of a long-term treasury strategy, and deploy its assets for productive purposes including staking and HYPE Asset Use Service agreements, the Company’s management has the discretion and ability to sell its digital assets as needed to cover liquidity obligations. As of December 31, 2025, the Company owns $16.2 million HYPE digital assets, of which nearly all are native staked and therefore would be subject to a seven-day unstaking queue before the Company could sell or transfer the assets. In addition, the majority of the Company’s HYPE digital assets are also deployed into HYPE Asset Use Service agreements or the Joint Validator Operator’s Agreement which are subject to additional restrictions on transferability (See Note 11 - commitments and contingencies). The Company also has approximately $21.0 million HYPE LSTs which can be traded, sold, or redeemed for HYPE and sold (subject to liquidity and redemption queue conditions, as well as the same seven-day unstaking queue as native staked HYPE).
