NOTE 14 — OTHER

The Company believes that KDC meets the definition of indefinite-lived intangible assets under ASC 350, as it is nonfinancial asset that lacks physical substance. Therefore, KDC was recognized and measured at historical cost. In addition, the Company determined that KDC has an indefinite life since there is no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic, or other factors that limit the useful life of KDC, in accordance with ASC 350-30-35-4.

The Company initially created KDC, a public digital cryptocurrency separate and apart from the FANING platform, as a method of onboarding and offboarding FP to and from the FANING platform through the Kingdom Wallet. However, on June 22, 2022, the Company entered into a Business Transfer Agreement (the “KDC Agreement”) with Kingdom Coin Holdings, a corporation incorporated in the Cayman Islands (the “KDC Foundation”), pursuant to which the Company transferred all of its KDC to the KDC Foundation, and no longer conducts or controls the operations, issuance, or sales of KDC in order to substantially reduce our involvement with blockchain technologies. This shift in our business plan was undertaken both to protect our users from potential risks associated with speculation in KDC, and because of the recent market and regulatory conditions surrounding cryptocurrency in general. As such, the Company no longer supports or operates Kingdom Wallet, and no longer allows the conversion of FP into KDC (and vice-versa). Neither Hanryu Holdings, nor any of its subsidiaries, have any affiliation with the KDC Foundation.

Additionally, and for the avoidance of doubt, the control person of Plus Meta PTE Ltd., KDC Foundation’s management company, is not an affiliate, and is not in any way related to, any officer, director, or shareholder of the Company. The KDC Foundation does not, has not, and will not coordinate any of its activities with the Company or the Company’s operation of FANING. Further, KDC will not be marketed to FANTOO users.

Pursuant to the KDC Agreement, in exchange for the Company transferring (a) its then-existing outstanding KDC balance of 299,651,320,620, (b) blockchain mainnet known as the Fandomchain, and (c) the Kingdom Wallet to the KDC Foundation, the KDC Foundation will (y) assume all obligations and liabilities with respect to KDC and Kingdom Wallet, and (z) pay to the Company the following contingent amounts, if, at December 31, 2024:

●

The KDC Foundation generates sales in excess of $74 million from the assets transferred from the Company, the KDC Foundation shall pay 10% of such sales to the Company;

●

The KDC Foundation generates sales in excess of $37 million, but less than $74 million, from the assets transferred from the Company, the KDC Foundation shall pay 15% of such sales to the Company; and

●

The Company will receive no consideration from the KDC Foundation if the assets transferred from the Company generates sales under $37 million.

For the avoidance of doubt, sales generated from the transferred assets do not include any post-transfer newly created KDC. KDC Foundation planned to generate revenue by integrating KDC, FandomChain, and the Kingdom Wallet into mobile games, and monetizing such games. Due to current cryptocurrency-related market conditions, the Company does not expect to receive any payments from KDC Foundation through December 31, 2024 in accordance with the terms of the Business Transfer Agreement.

The KDC agreement included contingent earn-out consideration, the fair value of which was estimated on June 22, 2022, as the present value of the expected future contingent receivables which the Company determined using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model for probabilities of possible future receivables. The Company determined the fair value of contingent consideration as zero on June 22, 2022. Contingent consideration is remeasured to fair value at each reporting date until the contingency is resolved, with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss in most circumstances. The Company recorded zero value of the contingent consideration on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024.

The Company believes that the transfer of KDC meets the definition of a “Component of an Entity” under FASB ASC Topic 205-20, Discontinued Operations, and as such can be disposed of by a means other than sale. The divestiture of KDC and its associated operations does not represent a strategic shift, nor has (and will not have), a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results because the blockchain/KDC operations did not represent:

●

15% of the Company’s total revenue;

●

Geographical area that represents 20% of the Company’s total assets; or

●

30% of the Company’s historic net income and 15% of the current period’s income.

The Company did not present the divestiture of its holdings of KDC and KDC-related activity as discontinued operations because there was no revenue, asset value, or net income from the divestiture of KDC and the related operations.
