Risk Factor Summary
The following is a summary of the risks and uncertainties that could cause our business, financial condition or operating results to be harmed. We encourage you to carefully review the full risk factors contained in this report in their entirety for additional information regarding these risks and uncertainties.
The Company We

for the years
ended December 31, 2024,2025, and 2023,2024, included elsewhere in the Report, contains an explanatory paragraph stating that our
recurring losses
from operations, accumulated deficit and negative working capital raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue
as a going concern.
We expect to continue to invest heavily in our
product development and operations, to focus on our FANING platform to increase our user base to support future growth, and to meet our
expanded reporting and compliance obligations as a public company. We may not generate sufficient revenue to offset such costs to achieve
or sustain profitability in the future.

OenStop OneStop
Assurance, PAC,
our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 20242025 and December 31, 2023, 2024,
has included an explanatory
paragraph in their opinion that accompanies our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the
year ended December 31, 2024
2025 and December 31, 2023,2024, indicating that our recurring losses from operations and a working capital deficiency
raises substantial doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to obtain profitability or improve our liquidity
position, we may not
be able to continue as a going concern.
We
anticipate that we
will continue to generate operating losses and use cash in operations through the foreseeable future. As further set forth below, we anticipate
that weWe will need significant additional capital, or we may be required to curtail or cease operations.
The revenues generated
from our operations are
not presently sufficient to sustain our operations. Therefore, we will need to raise additional capital in the
future to continue our
operations. operations.We currently believe that existing cash on hand is sufficient to support operations for approximately two months based on
the current operating cash burn rate and estimate that we will require approximately $250,000 per month to support ongoing operations
and execute our business plan. Accordingly, we estimate that approximately $3.0 million of additional capital will be required over the
next 12 months We anticipate that our principal sources of liquidity will not be sufficient to fund
our activities
to obtain long-term, sustainable profitability. To have sufficient cash to fund our operations to obtain long-term, sustainable
profitability, profitability,
we will need to raise additional equity or debt capital. There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available
when needed
from any source or, if available, will be available on terms that are acceptable to us. We will be required to pursue sources
of additional
capital through various means, including debt or equity financing. Future financing through equity investments will be
dilutive to existing
stockholders. The terms of securities we may issue in future capital transactions may be more favorable for new
investors. Newly issued
securities may include preferences, superior voting rights, the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities,
and the issuances
of incentive awards under equity employee incentive plans, all of which will have additional dilutive effects. Further,
we may incur substantial
costs in pursuing future capital and/or financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting
fees, printing and distribution
expenses and other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain
securities we may issue, such
as convertible notes and warrants, which may adversely impact our financial condition. Our ability to obtain
needed financing may be impaired
by such factors as the capital markets and our history of losses, which could impact the availability
and cost of future financing. If
the amount of capital we can raise from financing activities, together with ourany revenues and profits
from operations, is not sufficient
to satisfy our capital needs, even to the extent that we reduce our operations accordingly, we may
be required to curtail or cease operations.
We
are a development stage company, and
we may not be able to generate or sustain our rapid growth, effectively manage our anticipated future growth or implement our business strategies.
We
have a limited operating history. Although
we have experienced significant growth since FANING(FANTOO) was launched, our historical growth rate may not be indicative of our future
performance due to our limited operating history and the rapid evolution of our business model, including a focus on the FANING application.
We may not be able to achieve similar results or accelerate growth at the same rate as we have historically. As our application offerings
continue to develop, we may adjust our strategy and business model to adapt.
These adjustments may not achieve expected results and may
have a material and adverse impact on our financial condition and results
of operations.
In
addition, addition,any growth or expansion of our rapidbusiness growth and expansion
have placed, and continue to place,may significant strain on our management and resources. This level of significant growth may not be sustainable
or achievable at all in the future. We believe that any growth
of our continued growthbusiness will depend on many factors, including our ability to develop
new sources of revenues, diversify monetization methods
including advertising revenue, attract and retain users, increase engagement on
our FANINGFaning platform, continue developing innovative technologies
and application uses in response to shifting demand in the market, increase
brand awareness, and expand into new markets. We cannot assure
you that we will achieve any of the above, and our failure to do so may
materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Global interactive technologies is a holding
company with no business operations of its own and manages a network of South Korean subsidiaries, subject to South Korean regulation.
Further, as we have no business operations of our own, we will depend on the cash flow and business of our subsidiaries to make payments
to us and meet our obligations.
Global interactive technologies is a holding company with
no independent operations of our own. Our South Korean subsidiaries, including Faning Korea,LLC, conduct substantially all of Global interactive
technologies’ business operations. Managing the regulatory compliance activities for each of these subsidiaries is a complicated
task, and we may expend significant resources doing so. However, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to keep abreast of the changing
legal and regulatory landscapes for each of the jurisdictions in which our subsidiaries exist. If any of the regulatory environments applicable
to our subsidiaries change materially, and we fail to adapt to such change, our business and financial results may be harmed. Applicable
tax laws may also subject such payments to us by our subsidiaries to further taxation.
Additionally, as a holding company, we may rely on our operating
subsidiaries for distributions or payments for cash flow. Therefore, our ability to fund and conduct our business, service any debt, and
pay dividends, if any, in the future may depend on the ability of our South Korean subsidiaries to make upstream cash distributions or
payments to us, which may be impacted, for example, by their ability to generate sufficient cash flow or limitations on the ability to
repatriate funds, whether as a result of currency liquidity restrictions, monetary or exchange controls, regulatory restrictions, or otherwise.
Further, our subsidiaries’ ability to make payments to us will depend on:
We cannot assure that the operating results of
our subsidiaries at any given time will be sufficient to make distributions or other payments to us.
Many
elements of our business are unique, evolving
and relatively unproven. Our business and prospects depend on the continuing
development of the social media market, which is relatively
new, rapidly developing and subject to significant challenges. Our
business relies upon our ability to cultivate and grow an active online
community, and our ability to successfully monetize such
community through methods that include, without limitation, advertising revenue.
In addition, our continued growth depends, in part,
on our ability to respond to constant changes in the industry, including rapid technological
evolution, evolution and continued shifts in user
trends. Developing and integrating new content, products, services or infrastructure could be expensive
and time-consuming, and
these efforts may not yield the benefits we expect to achieve at all. We cannot assure you that we will succeed
in any of these
aspects or that the industry will continue to grow as rapidly as it has in the past.
We
expect that new services and technologies applicable
to the content creation and social media platform industry in which we operate will
continue to emerge and evolve. Rapid and significant
technological changes continue to confront the industries in which we operate, including
developments in the social media platform and
content creation industry. Incorporating new technologies into our products and services
may require substantial expenditures and take
considerable time, and we may not be successful in realizing a return on these development
efforts in a timely manner or at all. There
can be no assurance that any new products or services we develop and offer to our customers
will achieve significant commercial acceptance.
Our ability to develop new products and services may be inhibited by industry-wide standards,
laws and regulations, resistance to change
from buyers or sellers, or third parties’ intellectual property rights. Our success
will depend on our ability to develop new technologies
and to adapt to technological changes and evolving industry standards. If we are
unable to provide enhancements and new features for our
products and services or to develop new products and services that achieve market
acceptance or that keep pace with rapid technological
developments and evolving industry standards, our business would be materially
and adversely affected.
We
may also face pressures from competitors for
user engagement and, in the future, advertising revenues. Some potential competitors are
able to offer greater returns on content sales
to content creators for similar services by cross-subsidizing their payments services
through other services they offer. Such competition
may result in the need for us to alter the amount we charge creators in content-sales
transactions, and could reduce ourrevenue. gross profit.
In addition, as we grow, influential creators may demand more customized and favorable
pricing from us, and competitive pressures may
require us to agree to such pricing, further reducing our gross profit.
Much
of the Company’s future success depends
on the continued availability and service of key personnel, including its Chief Executive Officer, executive team and other highly skilled
employees.Officer. Since the technology industry is characterized by high demand and intense
competition for talents, we cannot assure you that
we will be able to attract or retain qualified staff or other highly skilled employees.
In addition, as the Company is relatively young,
our ability to train and integrate new employees into our operations may not meet the
growing demands of our business which may materially
and adversely affect our ability to grow our business and hence our results of operations.
We currently have ineffective internal control over financial reporting.
We currently have ineffective internal control over financial reporting. We have historically outsourced our accounting to small firms and also replaced our accounting firm with another small firm, the transition of which has caused a lack of continuity and loss of efficiency in the preparation of our financial statements. While we intend to remediate this weakness by hiring more permanent, qualified and experienced accounting personnel at the Company and/or to hire a larger accounting firm with more resources and expertise, we may not be able to remediate this weakness.
Governments
from time to time seek to censor content
available on social media platforms, or restrict access to social media platforms from
their country entirely, or impose other restrictions
that may affect the accessibility of our products in their country for an
extended period of time or indefinitely. For example, user access
to certain other company social media platforms has been or is
currently restricted in whole or in part in China, Iran, and North Korea.
In addition, government authorities in other countries may
seek to restrict user access to our products if they consider us to be in violation
of their laws or a threat to public safety or
for other reasons,reasons. andIf
access certain ofto our products haveor beenservices is restricted byin governmentsone or more countries, our ability to attract users, increase user engagement,
or generate advertising revenue in other
countriesthose frommarkets timemay tobe time.adversely affected.. It is also possible that government authorities could
take action that impairs our ability to sell advertising,
including in countries where access to our consumer-facing products may be
blocked or restricted. In the event that content shown on FANING
Faning is subject to censorship, access to our products is restricted, in
whole or in part, in one or more countries, we are required to or elect
to make changes to our operations, or other restrictions are
imposed on our products, or our competitors are able to successfully penetrate
new geographic markets or capture a greater share of
existing geographic markets that we cannot access or where we face other restrictions,
our ability to retain or increase our user
base, user engagement, or the level of advertising by marketers may be adversely affected,
we may not be able to maintain or grow
our revenue as anticipated, and our financial results could be adversely affected.
For
example, the European Union traditionally
has imposed stricter obligations under its laws and regulations relating to privacy, data protection
and consumer protection than the
United States. In May 2018, the European Union’s new regulation governing data practices and privacy
called the General
Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, became effective and substantially replaced the data protection laws of the individual
European Union
member states. The law requires companies to meet more stringent requirements regarding the handling of personal data
of individuals in
the EU than were required under predecessor EU requirements. In the United Kingdom, a Data Protection Bill that substantially
implements implements
the GDPR also became law in May 2018. The law also increases the penalties for non-compliance, which may result in monetary
penalties penalties
of up to €20.0 million or 4% of a company’s worldwide turnover, whichever is higher. The GDPR and other similar
regulations regulations
require companies to give specific types of notice and in some cases seek consent from consumers and other data subjects
before collecting
or using their data for certain purposes, including some marketing activities. Outside of the European Union, many
countries have laws,
regulations, or other requirements relating to privacy, data protection, information security, and consumer protection,
and new countries
are adopting such legislation or other obligations with increasing frequency. Many of these laws may require consent
from consumers for
the use of data for various purposes, including marketing, which may reduce our ability to market our products. There
is no harmonized
approach to these laws and regulations globally. Consequently, we increase our risk of non-compliance with applicable
foreign data protection
laws by operating internationally. We may need to change and limit the way we use personal information in operating
our business and may
have difficulty maintaining a single operating model that is compliant. In addition, various federal, state and
foreign legislative and
regulatory bodies, or self-regulatory organizations, may expand current laws or regulations, enact new laws or
regulations or issue revised
rules or guidance regarding privacy, data protection, information security and consumer protection. For
example, California recently adopted
the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), which provides new data
privacy rights for consumers
and new operational requirements for businesses. The CCPA includes a statutory damages framework and private
rights of action against
businesses that fail to comply with certain CCPA terms or implement reasonable security procedures and practices
to prevent data breaches.
The CCPA wentbecame into effecteffective in January 2020. TheWhile effectsthe ofCompany has not experienced any material adverse impact from the CCPA potentiallyto aredate,
compliance significant,with however,evolving privacy laws and regulations may require usongoing adjustments to modify

in toadditional incur substantialcompliance costs and expenses in anthe effort to comply. As a general matter, compliance
with laws, regulations, and any applicable rules or guidance from self- regulatory organizations relating to privacy, data protection,
information security and consumer protection, may result in substantial costs and may necessitate changes to our business practices, which
may compromise our growth strategy, adversely affect our ability to acquire customers, and otherwise adversely affect our business, financial
condition and operating results.future.
A
substantial percentage of our revenue and costs
are denominated in Korean Won, and a significant portion of our financial assets are
also denominated in Korean Won, while we anticipate
that a substantial portion of any debt incurred will be denominated in U.S. dollars.
We are a holding company and we may receive
dividends, loans and other distributions on equity paid by our operating subsidiariessubsidiary in Korea. Any significant fluctuations
in the value
of the Korean Won may materially and adversely affect our liquidity and cash flows. For example, the depreciation of the
Korean Won and
other foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar typically results in a material increase in the cost of hosting services
and equipment
purchased from outside of Korea and the cost of servicing debt denominated in currencies other than the Korean Won. As
a result, any significant
depreciation of the Korean Won or other major foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar may have a material
adverse effect on our
results of operations. If we decide to convert our Korean Won into U.S. dollars for the purpose of repaying principal
or interest
expense on any future U.S. dollar-denominated debt, making payments for dividends on our common stock, or other business
purposes, purposes,
depreciation of the Korean Won or other foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar would have a negative effect on the U.S.
dollar dollar
amount we would receive. Conversely, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into Korean Won for our operations, appreciation
of the Korean Won against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the Korean Won amount we would receive.
Tensions
with North Korea could have an adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, and results of operations, and the price per share of
our common stock.

Our
wholly owned subsidiary, FaningFANING Korea,KOREA, LLC,
is our Korean subsidiary and operates in a business and cultural environment that is different
from that of other countries. For example,
under the Foreign Exchange Transaction Act of Korea, if the Korean government determines that
in certain emergency circumstances,
including sudden fluctuations in interest rates or exchange rates, extreme difficulty in stabilizing
the balance of payments or substantial
disturbance in the Korean financial and capital markets are likely to occur, it may impose any
necessary restriction such as requiring
Korean or foreign investors to obtain prior approval from the Minister of Economy and Finance
of Korea prior to entering into a capital
markets transaction, repatriating interest, dividends or sales proceeds arising from Korean
securities or from the disposition of such
securities or other transactions involving foreign exchange. Although investors will hold
shares of our common stock, FaningFANING Korea,LLC
KOREA, LLC may experience adverse risks and in turn could adversely impact our business, prospects,
financial condition, and results of operations
and could lead to a decline in the price per share of our common stock.
As
a result of these current and changing risks,
Faning Korea,LLC’sFANING KOREA, LLC’s executive officers may be named in the future in criminal investigations
or proceedings stemming from our operations.
In Korea, company executive officers being named in such investigations or proceedings is
a common occurrence, even though in practice
many such cases result in no liability to the individual. If FaningFANING Korea,LLC’sKOREA, LLC’s executive
officers were to be named in such criminal
proceedings or held either directly or vicariously criminally liable for the actions of the
company and its executives and employees,
our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be harmed.
Faning Korea,LLC’s transactions with
its subsidiaries and affiliates may be restricted under Korean fair trade regulations.
Faning Korea,LLC enters into business relationships
and transactions with its subsidiaries and affiliates, which are subject to scrutiny by the Korean Fair Trade Commission (“KFTC”)
as to, among other things, whether such relationships and transactions constitute undue financial support among companies in the same
business group. If, in the future, the KFTC determines that Faning Koera,LLC has engaged in transactions that violate the fair trade laws
and regulations, it may be subject to an administrative and/or criminal fine, surcharge or other actions, which may have an adverse effect
on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Our
Korean subsidiary, FaningFANING Korea,KOREA, LLC
are is likely to be designated as a business group subject to disclosure under the Korean Monopoly
Regulation and Fair Trade Act. As described
in greater detail in the section titled “Government Regulation-The Monopoly Regulation
and Fair Trade Act”, such a designation
would impose additional corporate governance and public disclosure requirements on this
group of affiliated companies. These requirements
would create additional costs of compliance and could subject this group of affiliated
companies to greater regulatory scrutiny and risk
of penalties for any failure to comply with the additional obligations imposed.
Under
applicable Korean law, directors of a Korean
company, such as FaningFANING Korea,LLC,KOREA, LLC , owe a fiduciary duty to the company itself rather than
to its stockholders. This fiduciary duty obligates
directors of a Korean company to perform their duties faithfully for the good of the
company as a whole. As a result, if circumstances
arise in which the good of FaningFANING Korea,KOREA, LLC conflicts with the good of Global Interactive
Technologies, IncInc. or our stockholders, Faning
Korea,FANING KOREA, LLC may not be permitted under applicable Korean law to act in a manner that is in
the best interest of Global Interactive Technologies,
Inc, Inc. as its parent, or our stockholders. For example, providing guarantees or collateral
by FaningFANING Korea,KOREA, LLC in favor of Global Interactive
Technologies, Inc,Inc. as its parent, without a justifiable cause and on other than arm’s
length terms may cause breach of a fiduciary
duty of directors to FaningFANING Korea,KOREA, LLC.
Under
Korean tax law, there is an inherent risk
that FaningFANING Korea,KOREA, LLC’s transactions with its subsidiaries,subsidiaries (if any), affiliates or any
other person or company that is related
to us may be challenged by the Korean tax authorities if such transactions are viewed as having
been made on terms that were not on an
arm’s-length basis. If the Korean tax authorities determine that any of its transactions
with related parties were on other than
arm’s-length terms, it may not be permitted to deduct as expenses, or may be required to
include as taxable income, any amount which
is found to be undue financial support between related parties in such transaction, which
may have adverse tax consequences for us and,
in turn, may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Under
the Corporate Tax Act (“CTA”),
as amended on August 17, 2021, a corporation having a “place of effective management”
in Korea will be treated as a Korean
company for the purposes of Korean corporate income tax. However, the CTA does not clearly define
what constitutes “place of effective
management” and, to date, there has not been any court precedent. If we are deemed to
have a “place of effective management”
in Korea, we will be required to file annual corporate income tax returns with the
Korean tax authorities and be subject to Korean corporate
income tax. Currently, the applicable rates are 9.9% (inclusive of local corporate
taxes) for taxable income up to KRW 200 million, 20.9% (inclusive of local corporate taxes) for taxable income exceeding KRW 200 million

If
we are deemed to have a “permanent establishment”
as defined under Korean tax law, we would be required to file annual corporate

We
have historically generated a substantial majority
of our revenue from sales in Korea. Our future performance will depend in large part
on Korea’s future economic growth. Adverse
developments in Korea’s economy as a result of various factors, including economic,
political, legal, regulatory, and social conditions
in Korea may have an adverse effect on customer spending, which may not allow us
to achieve our desired revenue growth. The economic indicators
in Korea in recent years have shown mixed signs of growth and uncertainty, and in 2020, the Korean and global economies were affecteduncertainty.
as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, future growth of the Korean economy is subject to many factors beyond our control,

affected by developments in, the global economy. In recent years, adverse conditions and volatility
in the worldwide financial markets,
markets and fluctuations in oil and commodity prices, and the COVID-19 pandemic,prices have contributed to the uncertainty of global economic
prospects prospects
in general and have adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, the Korean economy. Due to liquidity and credit
concerns concerns
and volatility in the global financial markets, the value of the Korean Won relative to the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies
and the stock prices of Korean companies have fluctuated significantly in recent years. Further declines in the Korea Composite Stock
Price Index, and large amounts of sales of Korean securities by foreign investors and subsequent repatriation of the proceeds of such
sales may adversely affect the value of the Won, the foreign currency reserves held by financial institutions in Korea, and the ability
of Korean companies to raise capital. Any future deterioration of the Korean economy or the global economy could adversely affect our
business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We are subject to changing laws and regulations everywhere we do business, including in Korea.
We are subject to changing laws and regulations
everywhere we do business, including in Korea. For example, on September 28, 2020, the Korean Ministry of Justice announced (i) a
proposed amendment to the Korean Commercial Code to adopt a punitive damages system that would apply generally to all areas of business,
and (ii) a proposed bill to introduce a class action litigation system in Korea.
South Korea continues to strengthen regulations relating to online platform operators, digital commerce, consumer protection, and fair trade practices. Changes in applicable laws and regulations may increase compliance obligations and operational costs for online platform businesses, including social media and digital community platforms such as ours.
Additionally, on September 28, 2020, the
KFTC introduced a proposed bill entitled the “Fair Online Platform Intermediary Transactions Act.” This proposed act is intended
to augment the existing legal framework under the Monopoly Regulation and Fair Trade Act of Korea to regulate competition and
fairness issues arising in the business of online platforms. This proposed act would enhance liability of online platform operators to
merchants, suppliers, and customers.
These
are just some examples of how our business
could be affected by changing regulations. If these proposals are enacted and implemented,
our Korean subsidiary, FaningFANING Korea,KOREA, LLC,LLC could
face substantial costs and management could be required to spend significant time and
attention on these matters, which would divert our
focus from our core business. This could adversely affect our business, financial
condition, and results of operations.
Technology
changes rapidly in the social media
market which requires us to anticipate which technologies we must develop, implement and take
advantage of in order to remain competitive.
We have invested, and in the future may invest, in new business strategies including technologies, products,
technologies and to continue to persistently
deliver the best product.products. Such endeavoursendeavors may involve significant risks
and uncertainties, and no assurance can be given that the technology
we choose to adopt and the features that we pursue will be
successful. If we do not successfully implement these new technologies, our
reputation may be materially adversely affected and our
financial condition and operating results may be impacted. We also may miss opportunities
to adopt technology, or develop new
technologies, which could adversely affect our financial results. It may take significant time and
resources to shift our focus to
new technologies, putting us at a competitive disadvantage.
In
addition to our efforts to mitigate cybersecurity
risks, we are making significant investments in privacy, safety, security, and content
review efforts to combat misuse of our services
and user data by third parties, including investigations and audits of platform applications.
As a result of these efforts, we anticipate
that we may discover incidents of misuse of user data or other undesirable activity by third
parties. We may not discover all such incidents
or activity, whether as a result of our data or technical limitations, including our
lack of visibility over our encrypted services, the
scale of activity on our platform, challenges related to our personnel working remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic, the allocation of
resources to other projects,
or other factors, and we may be notified of such incidents or activity by the media or other third parties.
Such incidents and activities
may, in the future, include the use of user data or our systems in a manner inconsistent with our terms,
contracts or policies, the existence
of false or undesirable user accounts, improper advertising practices, activities that threaten people’s
safety on- or offline,
or instances of spamming, scraping, data harvesting, unsecured datasets, or spreading misinformation. We may also
be unsuccessful in
our efforts to enforce our policies or otherwise remediate any such incidents. Any of the foregoing developments may
negatively affect
user trust and engagement, harm our reputation and brands, require us to change our business practices in a manner adverse
to our business,
and adversely affect our business and financial results. Any such developments may also subject us to litigation and
regulatory inquiries,
which could subject us to monetary penalties and damages, divert management’s time and attention, and lead
to enhanced regulatory
oversight.
For
example, in the United States, the SEC
has been particularly active in pursuing digital asset issuers for unregistered security offerings
to U.S. residents. In Korea, the
Financial Services Commission has banned initial coin offerings within Korea. We have not offered KDC
in jurisdictions where it was be
prohibited or in a manner that is prohibited. The initial public offering of KDC was conducted on centralized
digital asset exchanges
that excluded subscribers from prohibited jurisdictions. Further, we conducted no public solicitation for the
offering of KDC in the United States
or South Korea. Nonetheless, because KDC is available on the public blockchain it may be possible
for residents in such jurisdictions
to acquire KDC in peer to peerpeer-to-peer transactions, as most jurisdictions, including the United States and
South Korea, do not prohibit
private parties from engaging in peer to peerpeer-to-peer digital asset transactions. With respect to resales or secondary
digital asset transactions,
jurisdictions generally regulate intermediaries for such transactions dependent on the extent and nature
of an intermediary’s role
in a transaction. Decentralized finance (“defi”) applications that are connected to
the public blockchain have substantially
minimized the role of the intermediary. Given the emerging nature of such defi applications,
the regulatory landscape pertaining to such
applications is still evolving and consequently, numerous defi applications are available
to transaction parties, often irrespective of
the physical location of a party and irrespective of the actions or inactions of the issuers
of such digital assets. To date, we do not
monitor for such defi transactions, nor do we have any prospective plans to do so. Furthermore,
given that we would never have access
to the personal information of the parties to such transactions, even if we had the ability to
restrict private defi transactions we would
not have the ability to identify whether any particular transaction should be restricted
under the Digital Asset Laws of any given jurisdiction
or whether we would be under any obligation to endeavourendeavor to enforce such restrictions,
to the extent possible. To the extent government
enforcement authorities or regulators seek to enforce current or future Digital Asset
Laws against us for these transactions, we may be
subject to investigation, administrative or court proceedings, and civil or criminal
monetary fines and penalties, all of which could
harm our reputation and negatively impact our business operations.
While
we no longer hold or otherwise possess KC,
Kingdom Coin (“KDC”), we are subject to compliance with securities laws, which could expose us to potential liabilities,
including potential rescission
rights. In August of 2021, we issued to certain creditors of HBC an aggregate total of 348,679,380 KDC
in exchange for the cancellation
of an aggregate value of $9,428,664 in HBC debt (the “KDC Exchange”). KDC was further
listed on LBank.com in August,
2021, and XT.com in September 2021 (LBank.com and XT.com are collectively, the “Listing Platforms”).
The current
market price of KDC ($0.00011) is significantly lower than the valuation of KDC used to extinguish the HBC debt.
At
the time of the KDC Exchange, and subsequently
at the time of listing of KDC on the Listing Platforms, HBC was operated solely under
the jurisdiction of the ROK.Republic of Korea (“ROK”). During the KDC Exchange,
and subsequently upon the listing of KDC on the
Listing Platforms, the Company did not direct any sales efforts in the United States
or to U.S. Persons. Further, pursuant to the terms
and conditions of each Listing Platform, neither Listing Platform permits U.S. Persons
as customers. While the Company therefore believes
there were no sales of KDC to or by a U.S. person, or efforts to sell KDC to U.S. persons
that would be subject to U.S. federal securities
laws, we relied on each of the Listing Platforms to prevent offers and sales in
the United States and to U.S. persons. As such, the Company
may be subject to the risks below in the event that the policies
and procedures of the Listing Platforms are not effective and/or sufficient
to prevent such offers and sales or that persons may have
been able to circumvent such policies and procedures.
We regard our registered trademark(s) and pending trademarks, service marks, domain names, trade secrets, proprietary technologies and similar intellectual property as critical to our success. We rely on trademark law, trade secret protection and confidentiality and license agreements with our employees and others to protect our proprietary rights.
We
received a notice
from Nasdaq that our common stock may be delisted from trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market if we fail to comply with
the continued listing
requirements, including the minimum bid price requirement and timely filing requirements of all required periodic
reports with the SEC.
A delisting of our common stock is likely to reduce the liquidity of our common stock and may inhibit or preclude
our ability to raise
additional financing.
On April 24, 2025, we received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq notifying the Company that it did not timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1).

Because we had not yet filed this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, any additional exception to allow us to regain compliance with the delinquent filings is limited to a maximum of 180 calendar days from the due date of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, or October 12, 2026. Additionally, we must submit an update by no later than June 22, 2026 to our original plan of compliance with respect to the filing requirement. While we expect the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 to cause us to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), there can be no guarantee that the Company will be able to do so.
On
May 21, 2024, we received a delinquency compliance alert notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department
of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). The Notice stated that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq’s continued
listing requirements under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), as the Company had failed to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
for the period ended March 31, 2024, and remained delinquent in filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2023, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Subsequently, the Company filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the first quarter on September 30, 2024, thereby resolving the basis for delisting.
On
April 18, 2024, we received a delinquency compliance alert notice from Nasdaq advising the Company that due to the Company’s failure
to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the “SEC”), the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements under Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires the timely filing of all required periodic reports with the SEC.
On
June 17, 2024, the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) requested that the Company
submit a plan (the “Plan”) to address the noncompliance issue by June 17. The Company submitted the Plan on June 14, 2024.
Subsequently, on July 16, 2024, the Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year 2023, thereby resolving the basis
for delisting On
August 20, 2024, the Company received a delinquency compliance alert notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications
Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). The Notice stated that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq’s
continued listing requirements under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Rule”) because it failed to timely file its Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2024, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Subsequently, the Company
filed the Form 10-Q for the second quarter on October 15, 2024, thereby resolving the basis for delisting.
On February 5, 2024, the Company received
a delinquency compliance alert notice from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market
LLC (“Nasdaq”), stating that the Company was not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing
on the Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), because the closing bid price of the Company’s common
stock had been below $1.00 for the previous 30 consecutive business days. To regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement,
the Company’s common stock must maintain a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business
days during the 180-calendar-day period from February 5, 2024 to August 4, 2024.
Subsequently, on February 5, 2025, the Company
received a determination letter (the “Determination Letter”) from the Nasdaq Staff stating that the Company was subject to
delisting for failing to meet the minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In order to resolve the deficiency,
the Company implemented a reverse stock split on January 27, 2025. Following the reverse split, the closing bid price of the Company’s
common stock met or exceeded $1.00 for 10 consecutive business days, and on February 10, 2025, the Company received a notice from Nasdaq
confirming that it had regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement and that the matter was closed.

a result of many factors, such as those set forth

Global Interactive Technologies, Inc. (“Global Interactive Technologies” or the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation operating and developing Faning, a global digital fan engagement platform focused on Korean entertainment and culture, including K-pop.
Faning is designed to support online fan communities, user interaction, multilingual communication, and digital engagement experiences across mobile and web-based services. The platform evolved from the legacy Fantoo platform ecosystem.
During 2025, the Company’s primary operational focus was the continued development, maintenance, and support of the Faning platform, along with preparation for future commercialization initiatives. The Company also focused on public company compliance activities, operational restructuring, and financing initiatives.
Although the Company continued developing monetization-related functionality during 2025, including digital engagement features, subscription-related functionality, and advertising infrastructure, the Faning platform remained in an early-stage commercialization phase as of December 31, 2025. Revenue generated from the platform during the year remained limited.
The Company believes that continued global interest in Korean entertainment and culture may create future opportunities for user engagement and platform growth; however, the Company’s future growth and commercialization efforts remain subject to substantial uncertainty, including user adoption, successful execution of monetization initiatives, availability of capital resources, and overall market conditions.
Faning Platform
The Faning platform includes community engagement tools, messaging and communication features, multilingual support functionality, user-generated content capabilities, and digital participation systems intended to facilitate interaction among users with shared entertainment and cultural interests.
The Company has also explored and developed various monetization initiatives associated with the platform, including digital engagement tools, subscription-related functionality, advertising infrastructure, and other fandom-related digital services. As of December 31, 2025, these monetization initiatives remained in early stages of commercialization.
Key Performance Indicators
Management monitors certain operational metrics and key performance indicators (“KPIs”) to evaluate platform activity and future business opportunities. These metrics include registered users, monthly active users (“MAUs”), average revenue per user (“ARPU”), and user acquisition cost (“UAC”).
The legacy Fantoo platform historically accumulated approximately 26.6 million registered accounts as of December 31, 2024. The Company views this historical registered account base as a potential long-term strategic asset; however, the Company did not complete a migration or reactivation of this historical user base during 2025 and cannot currently predict the extent to which such historical users may become active users, retained users, or monetizable users within the Faning platform.
ARPU remained limited during 2025 as the Company continued operating in an early-stage commercialization phase. Management expects that future operational performance, if commercialization initiatives are successfully implemented, may depend on user engagement, monetization adoption, marketing efficiency, and broader platform growth initiatives.
Components of Results of Operations
Functional Currency
The functional currency of the Company’s operations is the Korean Won (“KRW”). The Company’s some accounting records are maintained in KRW and translated into the U.S. Dollar(“USD”) for financial reporting purposes. Exchange rate fluctuations between KRW and USD may affect the Company’s reported financial results.
Revenue
The Company’s revenue is currently derived primarily from limited early-stage Faning platform-related activities and certain legacy business activities. Revenue during 2025 remained limited as the Company continued operating in an early-stage commercialization phase.
The Company has been developing monetization initiatives associated with the Faning platform, including digital engagement features, subscription-related functionality, advertising-related infrastructure, and other platform-based services. However, these monetization initiatives remained in early stages during 2025 and did not generate material revenue during the fiscal year.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue consists primarily of platform-related service costs, hosting and infrastructure expenses, and other costs directly associated with revenue-generating activities.
Sales and Marketing Expense
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of advertising, promotional activities, user acquisition initiatives, consulting expenses, travel, and other marketing-related costs. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
Sales and marketing expenses may fluctuate depending on the timing and scale of future marketing initiatives and commercialization activities.
Research and Development Expense
Research and development expense consists primarily of costs associated with maintaining, supporting, and developing the Faning platform, including software development, contractors, technology infrastructure, and related personnel costs.
General and Administrative Expense
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs, professional fees, public company compliance expenses, legal and accounting costs, investor relations expenses, consulting fees, office expenses, and other corporate administrative costs.
During 2025, a substantial portion of the Company’s operating expenses related to public company compliance activities, financing initiatives, legal and professional fees, and corporate administrative matters.
The Company also implemented significant leadership
changes and board realignment aimed at improving governance and execution. A new management team with deeper public company experience
was appointed, and the workforce was streamlined by transitioning core functions to outsourced development and operational support, significantly
reducing capital expenditure while enhancing operational flexibility.
Liquidity remained constrained during the year,
driven by negative operating cash flow and continued investment in the FANING platform. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had current
assets of $2,987 and current liabilities of $668,339, resulting in an accumulated deficit of $37,901,301. These conditions raise substantial
doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. To support its turnaround efforts, the Company plans to raise
new capital through equity financing and borrowing and expects revenue growth and cost efficiency to improve following the release of
the upgraded FANING platform in 2025.
Refer to the subsequent sections of this Item
7 for a detailed discussion of our results of operations, liquidity and capital resources, and financial condition.
Year Ended December 31, 2025 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2024
Revenue
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 was approximately $1,932, compared to no material revenue during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Revenue during 2025 primarily reflected limited early-stage commercialization activities associated with the Faning platform. The Company remained in the development and user integration phase throughout most of 2025, and monetization initiatives had not yet achieved material scale.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 were approximately $2.44 million, compared to approximately $0.89 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The increase in operating expenses was primarily attributable to public company operating costs, including legal, accounting, audit, investor relations, Nasdaq compliance, and other professional expenses associated with operating as a publicly listed company, as well as expenses related to attempted financing and capital markets activities during 2025. The increase was not primarily driven by material revenue-generating operations.
The Company also incurred additional expenses related to corporate governance, SEC reporting obligations, financing initiatives, and administrative infrastructure associated with maintaining and supporting its public company operations. During 2025 and 2024, Research and Development expenses and Sales and Marketing expenses remained minimal, as the Company primarily focused its resources and liquidity on establishing its public company infrastructure and corporate governance. However, the Company expects these expenses to increase significantly in future periods as it shifts focus toward platform development and user growth.
The Company expects operating expenses to remain elevated as it continues investing in platform functionality, infrastructure scalability, and user acquisition initiatives, while also continuing to incur significant public company compliance and professional service costs.
Impairment Loss on Intangible Assets
The Company recorded an impairment loss on intangible assets of approximately $1.02 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to approximately $94,000 during the year ended December 31, 2024.
The impairment charge primarily reflected management’s reassessment of projected future cash flows and commercialization timelines associated with certain intangible assets, taking into account the Company’s limited current revenues, ongoing operating losses, and revised near-term market assumptions.
Net Loss
Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2025 was approximately $ 4.63 million, compared to approximately $6.17 million during the year ended December 31, 2024.
The decrease in net loss was primarily attributable to the gain on disposal of subsidiaries recognized during 2024, partially offset by increased operating expenses and higher impairment charges during 2025.
The Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the years
ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 are as follows.
Consolidated Statements of Operations
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, the Company underwent
a year of restructuring, including the replacement of management that had been operating the Company ineffectively and the divestiture
of financially distressed subsidiaries. As a result, no revenue was generated during the year ended December 31, 2024. Furthermore, for
the comparative period ended December 31, 2023, revenue has been reclassified as discontinued operations following the divestiture of
the three subsidiaries in 2024, and thus there is no revenue from continuing operations. For reference, revenue from discontinued operations
amounted to $196 in 2024 and $827,489 in 2023.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses related to continuing
operations decreased by 56% to $888,363 in 2024, compared to $2,005,925 in 2023, due to workforce reductions and the sale of subsidiaries.
In addition, selling, general, and administrative expenses related to discontinued operations significantly decreased to $1,489,006 in
2024 from $10,483,401 in 2023.
The subsidiaries sold in 2024—Hanryu Bank Co., Ltd., FNS Co.,
Ltd., and Marin Island Co., Ltd.—have been reclassified as discontinued operations and reflected as such in the financial statements.
The Company expects that its financial structure will improve starting
in 2025, driven by the launch of the upgraded, user-centric FANING platform and enhanced cost efficiency from the 2024 restructuring efforts.
The new management team is committed to securing long-term sustainability by expanding the user base, diversifying revenue streams, and
maintaining tight cost controls.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $6,990, compared to approximately $2,352 as of December 31, 2024.
The following table summarizes our cash flows from continuing operations for the periods presented:
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations was $751,197 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $456,431 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Although our net loss decreased slightly from $4,783,651 in 2024 to $4,632,893 in 2025, the cash outflow from operations increased by $294,766. This increased cash usage was primarily driven by cash paid for public company operating costs and compliance activities, partially offset by significant non-cash adjustments in 2025, including $1,021,192 in amortization, $1,168,228 in debt extinguishment loss, and $1,019,611 in impairment loss on intangible assets, as well as a $459,096 increase in non-trade accounts payable.
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities from continuing operations was $0 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $154,148 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The cash inflow in 2024 was primarily attributable to $84,154 from the collection of short-term loan receivables and $84,097 from the disposal of property and equipment, whereas there were no such investing activities or asset disposals during 2025.
The Company’s balance sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 are as follows.

Although
the Company continued developing monetization-related
functionality including digital engagement features, subscription-related functionality,
and advertising infrastructure, the Faning platform
remained in an early-stage commercialization phase as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026. Revenue generated
from the platform during the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2025 and the threesix months ofended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 remained limited.
The
Company has also explored and developed various
monetization initiatives associated with the platform, including digital engagement tools,
subscription-related functionality, advertising
infrastructure, and other fandom-related digital services. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, these
monetization initiatives remained in early stages
of commercialization.
June 30, 2026 Recoverability Assessment
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, management identified indicators of impairment related to the FANING platform, including continued minimal revenue generation, continuing operating losses, lower-than-expected commercialization activities, a revised commercialization timeline, and the need for additional financing to execute the Company’s business plan. As a result, management performed a recoverability assessment pursuant to ASC 360-10 for the Faning asset group, which consists primarily of the Faning software intangible asset and the related right-of-use asset utilized in its operations.
Under ASC 360, management first evaluated whether the carrying amount of the asset group was recoverable based on the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset group. Based on management’s analysis, the aggregate undiscounted future cash flows exceeded the carrying amount of the asset group. Accordingly, the asset group passed the recoverability test and no impairment loss was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.
The recoverability analysis was based on management’s updated operating forecast and included significant assumptions regarding future commercialization of the Faning platform, including projected user acquisition beginning in fiscal year 2027, estimated customer acquisition costs, monthly active user conversion rates, user retention, and monetization assumptions. Because the platform has generated minimal revenue since acquisition, these assumptions required significant management judgment and are inherently uncertain. The forecast also assumes the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing beyond the June 2026 private placement to execute its commercialization strategy.
Compared with the assumptions utilized in the Company’s December 31, 2025 impairment assessment, management revised its forecast to reflect an approximate twelve-month delay in commercialization and revenue generation. The delay reduced expected near-term cash flows and was a significant factor in management’s decision to perform an interim recoverability analysis.
Although management estimated the fair value of the Faning software intangible asset to be approximately $2.2 million as of June 30, 2026, compared with its carrying amount of approximately $2.7 million, no impairment charge was recognized. Under ASC 360, impairment is recognized only if the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds the sum of its estimated undiscounted future cash flows. Because the estimated undiscounted future cash flows exceeded the carrying amount of the asset group, the Company concluded the asset group was recoverable and did not proceed to the impairment measurement step.
Management’s recoverability conclusion is sensitive to assumptions regarding projected user acquisition, monthly active user conversion rates, user engagement, and monetization. A meaningful reduction in projected user growth or monetization relative to management’s forecast would cause estimated undiscounted future cash flows to no longer exceed the carrying amount of the asset group. Under such circumstances, management estimates that an impairment charge could range from approximately $1.2 million to $2.3 million, depending on the estimated fair value of the asset group at the time of testing.
The
legacy Fantoo platform historically accumulated
approximately 26.6 million registered accounts as of December 31, 2024. The Company views
this historical registered account base as a
potential long-term strategic asset; however, the Company did not complete a migration or
reactivation of this historical user base during
2025 or the first threesix months ofended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and cannot currently predict the extent to
which such historical users may become active
users, retained users, or monetizable users within the Faning platform.
ARPU
remained limited during 2025 and the first threesix months ofended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 as the Company continued operating
in an early-stage commercialization
phase. Management expects that future operational performance, if commercialization initiatives are
successfully implemented, may depend
on user engagement, monetization adoption, marketing efficiency, and broader platform growth initiatives.

Comparison
of Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025
Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $126, compared to $29 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $222, compared to $29 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Revenue in both periods was generated by the Faning platform and relates primarily to subscriptions and in-app purchases. The upgraded platform was relaunched in April 2025 and began generating revenue in May 2025, so the prior-year periods reflect only the initial weeks of monetization. Revenue remains limited because the platform is in an early stage of commercialization, and revenue for the first half of 2026 was below the level recognized in the second half of 2025.
Revenue
for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $96 compared to sales of $-0- for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The revenue
sources primarily relate to subscriptions and in-app purchase in the FANING platform.
Cost
of sales werewas $0 for each of the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively.2025.
Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $716,053, compared to $676,960 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $39,093, or 5.8%. The increase was primarily attributable to higher general and administrative expense of $112,327, including legal and accounting expenses associated with the Company’s commercialization efforts, regulatory filings, Nasdaq compliance matters, and the June 2026 private placement, and is partially offset by a decrease in amortization of $69,287. Lease expense associated with the rent-free Seoul Marina right-of-use asset was $54,945 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and was non-cash.
Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $1,212,500, compared to $1,240,428 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of $27,928, or 2.3%. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in amortization expense of $129,919 associated with the Faning software intangible asset, partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expense of $106,523 primarily due to commercialization activities, regulatory and compliance matters, legal and accounting support for the June 2026 private placement. Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 primarily consisted of amortization expense of $378,632, lease expense of $111,273, legal and professional fees of approximately $337,000, marketing expense of $165,000, directors’ fees of $72,000, salary expense of $68,300, annual fee expense of $56,000, and other general and administrative expenses.
Operating
expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $496,447 compared to $563,468 during the same three months ended March 31, 2025.
The material decrease in expenses is attributable to a decrease in our amortization expenses of intangible asset.
Operating
expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were primarily composed of: Amortization expense of $189,316, lease expense of $56,328,
annual fee expense of $56,000, legal and professional fees expense of $101,912, salary expense of $53,650, directors’ fee expense
of $36,000, and other general and administrative expenses.
Net other expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was $192,503 and $193,145, compared to $1,118 and $4,331 for the prior-year periods. The 2026 amounts primarily consist of the $139,920 loss on extinguishment of the FirstFire note, $1,943 foreign currency transaction loss, and interest expense of $50,640 and $51,282, respectively, principally the $49,500 of guaranteed interest on that note and interest on the Company’s other short-term borrowings.
Other
income (expense) is comprised solely of interest expense and a gain or loss on foreign currency transactions. Other expense was $642
for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $3,213 in other expense during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
As
a result of the foregoing, we recorded a net loss of $496,993$908,430, or $(0.140.25) per sharebasic and diluted share, for the three months ended March 31,June
30, 2026,
compared to a net loss of $566,681$678,049, or $(0.200.22) per shareshare, for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025, and a net loss of $1,405,423,
or $(0.38) per basic and diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to a net loss of $1,244,730, or $(0.41) per
share, for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Known Trends and Uncertainties
The Company remains in an early stage of commercialization. Revenue is minimal, was below the level recognized in the second half of 2025, and does not cover the Company’s operating costs; whether the marketing investment made in the second quarter of 2026 converts into revenue is not yet determinable. The Company expects legal and professional fees to remain elevated while the matters described in Note 12 “Commitments and Contingencies” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are pending, and its ability to fund operations, marketing and platform development depends on obtaining additional capital, as described under Liquidity and Capital Resources and in Note 1, which discusses substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had $1,162,141 of cash on hand, compared to $6,990 at December 31, 2025. The increase reflects the net proceeds of $1,808,907 from the June 2026 private placement, partially offset by the repayment of the FirstFire note and other short-term borrowings and by cash used in operations.
As
of March 31, 2026, the Company had $360 cash on hand.
During
the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, the Company had a net loss of $496,993.$1,405,423.
Cash used in operating activities was $558,921 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $529,645 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The 2026 amount included the net loss as of June 30, 2026 of $1,405,423 adjusted for non-cash charges of $378,632 of amortization of the Faning software, $111,273 of non-cash lease expense, the $139,920 loss on extinguishment of the FirstFire note, and the Company deferred payment of $261,046 of accrued expenses, primarily directors’ compensation and legal and professional fees, partially offset by a $62,745 reduction in non-trade accounts payable.
Cash used in investing activities was $0 for each of the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
Cash provided by financing activities was $1,703,371 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $558,071 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company received net proceeds of $1,808,907 from the June 2026 private placement, net proceeds of $460,580 from the FirstFire note and $66,057 of cash advances from GIT Korea, $14,417 from Levanston, Corner Piece Capital $46,200 and Faning Korea $1,562, and repaid $696,501 of short-term borrowings, including $600,500 to FirstFire (principal of $550,000 and the $50,500 premium), $68,000 to GIT Korea, $46,200 to Corner Piece Capital Partners, and $18,000, net to Levanston. The six months ended June 30, 2025 consisted primarily of $528,015 of proceeds from short-term borrowings.
In June 2026, the Company completed a private placement of Pre-Funded Warrants and Common Stock Warrants for net proceeds of approximately $1.8 million, which the Company used to repay the FirstFire note and, subsequent to quarter end, its loans from related parties, and intends to use for working capital and general corporate purposes. The private placement did not result in the issuance of common shares at closing; up to 2,185,792 shares are issuable upon exercise of the warrants, of which the Common Stock Warrants would provide up to approximately $2.0 million of additional proceeds if exercised in full for cash at $1.83 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company also funded a portion of its operating costs through non-interest-bearing advances from Levanston, which paid $14,417 of expenses on the Company’s behalf during the period ($60,199 during fiscal 2025); the Company repaid $42,000 of these advances on April 24, 2026, and $34,703 remained outstanding at June 30, 2026. These proceeds do not alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, and the Company will require additional financing to fund its operations, marketing and platform development.
Cash
flows used in operating activities were $51,737 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to cash flows used in operating activities
$96,330 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in cash flows used in operating activities for the three months ended
March 31, 2026, compared to the same three-month period in 2025, is primarily attributable to decreases in amortization of intangible
asset and accounts payable – nontrade offset by an increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities.
Cash
flows used in investing activities were $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively Cash
flows provided by financing activities were $49,911 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $114,660 in cash flows provided
by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in cash flows provided by financing
activities in the three months ended March 31, 2026, is primarily attributable to a decrease in proceeds from short-term borrowings and
proceeds from short-term borrowing from related parties offset by repayment of short-term borrowing from related parties.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $43,939,617 and working capital of $32,014, and it incurred a net loss of $1,405,423 and used $558,921 of cash in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026. The Company’s working capital at June 30, 2026 reflects the net proceeds of $1,808,907 from the private placement of Pre-Funded Warrants and Common Stock Warrants completed on June 29, 2026 (Note 17 “Warrants” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements); revenue from the Faning platform remains minimal and does not cover the Company’s operating costs.
As
of March 31, 2026, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $43,031,188 and a working capital deficiency of $1,130,771. In addition,
the Company incurred an net loss of $496,993 for the period ended March 31, 2026.
As
of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, the Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined under applicable SEC rules, that have or are
reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity,
capital expenditures, or capital resources.
As
of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, the Company did not have any material long-term contractual obligations, other than obligations incurred in the ordinary
course of business, including accrued professional fees and other accounts payable reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.
