Although the
Company indirectly holds less than 50% of shares of these entities, the subsidiaries of the Company directly hold more than 50% of
shares of these entities, and therefore, they are still consolidated into the Company.
F- 6
During
the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company disposed of few subsidiaries which had no or very minimal activities. The disposal of these
entities had immaterial effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and their deconsolidation did not meet the criteria
for presentation as discontinued operations under ASC 205-20.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates made by management include, but
are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of real estate assets, allocation of development costs and capitalized
interest to sold lots, fair value of the investments, the valuation allowance of deferred taxes, and contingencies. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
In
our property development business, land acquisition costs are allocated to each lot based on the area method, the size of the lot compared
to the total size of all lots in the project. Development costs and capitalized interest are allocated to lots sold based on the total
expected development and interest costs of the completed project and allocating a percentage of those costs based on the selling price
of the sold lot compared to the expected sales values of all lots in the project.
If
allocation of development costs and capitalized interest based on the projection and relative expected sales value is impracticable,
those costs would be allocated based on area method.
When
the Company purchases properties but does not receive the assessment information from the county, the Company allocates the values between
land and building based on the data of similar properties. The Company makes appropriate adjustments once the assessment from the county
is received. At the same time, any necessary adjustments to depreciation expense are made in the income statement.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and at the bank and short-term deposits with financial institutions that are readily convertible
to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in values.
F- 7
Restricted
Cash
As
a condition to the loan agreement with the Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company (“M&T Bank”), the Company was required
to maintain a minimum of $ 2,600,000 in an interest-bearing account maintained by the lender as additional security for the loans. The
fund was required to remain as collateral for the loan and outstanding letters of credit until the loan and letters of credit are paid
off in full and the loan agreement is terminated. The loan has expired during 2022 and only letters of credit were outstanding as of
June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. On March 15, 2022 approximately $ 2,300,000 was released from collateral. On December 14, 2023 additional
$ 201,751 was released from collateral. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the total balance of this account was $ 107,928 and
$ 107,874 , respectively.
Account
Receivables and Allowance for Credit Losses
Account
receivables is recorded at invoiced amounts net of an allowance for credit losses and does not bear interest. The allowance for credit
losses is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing account receivables.
The measurement and recognition of credit losses involves the use of judgment. Management’s assessment of expected credit losses
includes consideration of current and expected economic conditions, market and industry factors affecting the Company’s customers
(including their financial condition), the aging of account balances, historical credit loss experience, customer concentrations, customer
creditworthiness, and the existence of sources of payment. The Company also establishes an allowance for credit losses for specific receivables
when it is probable that the receivable will not be collected and the loss can be reasonably estimated. Account receivables considered
uncollectible are charged against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered
remote. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the allowance for credit losses was an immaterial amount. The Company does not have
any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the balance of account receivables
was $ 79,749 and $ 75,646 , respectively.
Other
Receivables and Allowance for Credit Losses
Other
receivables include developer reimbursements for Lakes at Black Oak and Alset Villas projects. The Company records an allowance for credit
losses based on previous collection experiences, the creditability of the organizations that are supposed to reimburse us, the forecasts
from the third-party engineering company, and Moody’s credit ratings. The allowance amount for these reimbursements was immaterial
at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
On
January 9, 2024, the Company sold 1,600,000 shares of HWH International Inc. (“HWH”) to two investors ( 800,000 shares to
each). The consideration for each of the two purchases of stock was $ 8,000,000 , which was paid through the issuance of promissory notes
at the purchase price of $ 10 per share. These promissory notes carry interest of 1.5 % and have maturity dates two years from the date
of the notes. Each investor also entered into a Security Agreement. Security interest in the brokerage account into which each investor
deposited the Shares (the “Collateral”) shall in each case serve as security for the Company’s repayment of their respective
promissory notes, and repossession of such Collateral by the Company shall be the sole recourse for non-payment. On June 30, 2025, HWH’s
stock price was $ 1.27 . The Company does not expect that investors will repay the promissory notes when due, as the value of the shares
is significantly lower than the original purchase price of $ 10 per share. The Company expects that all the shares will be returned to
the Company at the notes’ maturity date and the notes will be canceled as well. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized the
receivable or any gain or loss related to the transaction.
F- 8
Inventories
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method and includes all costs
in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary
course of business less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, inventory consisted
of finished goods from subsidiaries of HWH International Inc. and Hapi Metaverse Inc. The Company continuously evaluates the need for
reserve for obsolescence and possible price concessions required to write-down inventories to net realizable value.

Investment
Securities at Cost
Investments
in equity securities without readily determinable fair values are measured at cost minus impairment adjusted by observable price changes
in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investments of the same issuer. These investments are measured at fair value on
a nonrecurring basis when there are events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse effect. An impairment loss,
recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income, equals to the amount by which the carrying value exceeds
the fair value of the investment.

Equity
Method Investment
The
Company accounts for equity investments in entities with significant influence under equity-method accounting. Under this method, the
Company’s pro rata share of income (loss) from investment is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive
income. Dividends received reduce the carrying amount of the investment. When the Company’s share of loss in an equity-method investee
equals or exceeds its carrying value of the investment in that entity, the equity method investment can be reduced below zero based on
losses, if the Company either is liable for the obligations of the investee or provides for losses in excess of the investment when imminent
return to profitable operations by the investee appears to be assured. Otherwise, the Company does not recognize its share of equity
method losses exceeding its carrying amount of the investment. Equity-method investment is reviewed for impairment by assessing if the
decline in market value of the investment below the carrying value is other-than-temporary. In making this determination, factors are
evaluated in determining whether a loss in value should be recognized. These include consideration of the intent and ability of the Company
to hold investment and the ability of the investee to sustain an earnings capacity, justifying the carrying amount of the investment.
Impairment losses are recognized in other expense when a decline in value is deemed to be other-than-temporary.

Company’s policy is to obtain an independent third-party valuation for each major project in the United States as part of our
assessment of identifying potential triggering events for impairment. Management may use the market comparison method to value other
relatively small projects. In addition to the annual assessment of potential triggering events in accordance with ASC 360 – Property
Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360”), the Company applies a fair value-based impairment test to the net book value assets
on an annual basis and on an interim basis if certain events or circumstances indicate that an impairment loss may have
occurred.

The aggregate purchase cost of all the homes is $ 30,998,258 . These homes are located in Montgomery and Harris Counties, Texas. All of
these purchased homes are properties of our rental business.
Investments
in Single-Family Residential Properties
The
Company accounts for its investments in single-family residential properties as asset acquisitions and records these acquisitions at
their purchase price. The purchase price is allocated between land, building and improvements based upon their relative fair values at
the date of acquisition. The purchase price for purposes of this allocation is inclusive of acquisition costs which typically include
legal fees, title fees, property inspection and valuation fees, as well as other closing costs.
Building
improvements and buildings are depreciated over estimated useful lives of approximately 10 to 27.5 years, respectively, using the straight-line
method.
The
Company assesses its investments in single-family residential properties for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances
indicate that carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. When such events occur, management determines whether there
has been impairment by comparing the asset’s carrying value with its fair value. Should impairment exist, the asset is written
down to its estimated fair value. The Company did not recognize any impairment losses during three and six months ended June 30, 2025
and 2024.
Rental
of Model Houses
In
May 2023, the Company entered into a lease agreement for one of its model houses located in Montgomery County, Texas. The lease was terminated
in February 2025. Management intends to procure a new tenant to occupy the premises after the office used for real estate sales is converted
back to a garage.
On
July 14, 2023, 150 CCM Black Oak Ltd entered into a model home lease agreement with Davidson Homes, LLC (“Davidson”). On
August 3, 2023, 150 CCM Black Oak Ltd entered into a development and construction agreement with Davidson Homes, LLC to build a model
house located in Montgomery County, Texas. On January 4, 2024, 150 CCM Black Oak Ltd sent $ 220,076 to Davidson as reimbursement for final
construction cost and the contractor’s fee. The model home lease commenced on January 1, 2024, lease term is twenty-four ( 24 ) full
months and annual base rent equals to twelve percentage (12%) of the total of the final cost of construction and the contractor’s
fee.
Revenue
Recognition and Cost of Revenue
ASC
606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), establishes principles for reporting information about the
nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services
to customers.
In
accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized
reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The provisions
of ASC 606 include a five-step process by which the determination of revenue recognition, depicting the transfer of goods or services
to customers in amounts reflecting the payment to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC
606 requires the Company to apply the following steps:
(1)
identify the contract with the 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.
F- 13
The
following represents the Company’s revenue recognition policies by Segments:
Real
Estate
Property
Sales
Part
of the Company’s real estate business is land development. The Company purchases land and develops it for building into residential
communities. The developed lots are sold to builders (customers) for the construction of new homes. Builders enter a sales contract with
the Company before they take the lots. The prices and timeline are determined and agreed upon in the contract. Builders do the inspections
to make sure all conditions and requirements in contracts are met before purchasing the lots. A detailed breakdown of the five-step process
for the revenue recognition of the Lakes at Black Oak project, which represented approximately 0 % and 70 %, of the Company’s revenue
in the six months ended on June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, is as follows:
●
Identify the contract with a customer.
The
Company has signed agreements with the builders for developing the raw land to ready to build lots. The contract has agreed upon prices,
timelines, and specifications for what is to be provided.
●
Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
Performance
obligations of the Company include delivering developed lots to the customer, which are required to meet certain specifications that
are outlined in the contract. The customer inspects all lots prior to accepting title to ensure all specifications are met.
●
Determine the transaction price.
The
transaction price per lot is fixed and specified in the contract. Any subsequent change orders or price changes are required to be approved
by both parties.
●
Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations
in the contract.
Each
lot or a group of lots is considered to be a separate performance obligation, for which the specified price in the contract is allocated
to.
●
Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies
a performance obligation.
The
builders do the inspections to make sure all conditions/requirements are met before taking title of lots. The Company recognizes revenue
at a point in time when title is transferred. The Company does not have further performance obligations or continuing involvement once
title is transferred. Revenue is recognized at a point in time.
Rental
Revenue
The
Company leases real estate properties to its tenants under leases that are predominately classified as operating leases, in accordance
with ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). Real estate rental revenue is comprised of minimum base rent and revenue from the collection
of lease termination fees.
Rent
from tenants is recorded in accordance with the terms of each lease agreement on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease.
Rental revenue recognition begins when the tenant controls the space and continues through the term of the related lease. Generally,
at the end of the lease term, the Company provides the tenant with a one-year renewal option, including mostly the same terms and conditions
provided under the initial lease term, subject to rent increases.
F- 14
The
Company defers rental revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates. These amounts are presented
within deferred revenues and other payables on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Rental
revenue is subject to an evaluation for collectability on several factors, including payment history, the financial strength of the tenant
and any guarantors, historical operations and operating trends of the property, and current economic conditions. If our evaluation of
these factors indicates that it is not probable that we will recover substantially all of the receivable, rental revenue is limited to
the lesser of the rental revenue that would be recognized on a straight-line basis (as applicable) or the lease payments that have been
collected from the lessee. Differences between rental revenue recognized and amounts contractually due under the lease agreements are
credited or charged to straight-line rent receivable or straight-line rent liability, as applicable. For the six months ended June 30,
2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company did not recognize any deferred revenue and collected all rents due.
Cost
of Revenues
Real
Estate
●
Cost of Real Estate Sale
All
of the costs of real estate sales are from our land development business. Land acquisition costs are allocated to each lot based on the
area method, the size of the lot comparing to the total size of all lots in the project. Development costs and capitalized interest are
allocated to lots sold based on the total expected development and interest costs of the completed project and allocating a percentage
of those costs based on the selling price of the sold lot compared to the expected sales values of all lots in the project.
If
allocation of development costs and capitalized interest based on the projection and relative expected sales value is impracticable,
those costs could also be allocated based on area method, the size of the lot comparing to the total size of all lots in the project.
●
Cost of Rental Revenue
Cost
of rental revenue consists primarily of the costs associated with management and leasing fees to our management company, repairs and
maintenance, depreciation and other related administrative costs. Utility expenses are paid directly by tenants.
Other
Businesses
●
Food and Beverage
The
Company, through Alset F&B One Pte. Ltd. (“Alset F&B One”) and Alset F&B (PLQ) Pte. Ltd. (“Alset F&B
PLQ”) each acquired a restaurant franchise licenses at the end of 2021 and 2022, respectively, both of which have since commenced
operations. These licenses allow Alset F&B One and Alset F&B PLQ each to operate a Killiney Kopitiam restaurant in Singapore.
Killiney Kopitiam, founded in 1919, is a Singapore-based chain of mass-market, traditional kopitiam style service cafes selling traditional
coffee and tea, along with a range of local delicacies such as Curry Chicken, Laksa, Mee Siam, and Mee Rebus.
The
Company, through Hapi Café Inc. (“HCI-T”), commenced operation of two cafés during 2022 and 2021, which are
located in Singapore and South Korea.
The
cafes are operated by subsidiaries of HCI-T, namely Hapi Café SG Pte. Ltd. in Singapore and Hapi Café Korea Inc. in Seoul,
South Korea. Hapi Cafes are distinctive lifestyle café outlets that strive to revolutionize the way individuals dine, work, and
live, by providing a conducive environment for everyone to relish the four facets – health and wellness, fitness, productivity,
and recreation all under one roof.
F- 15
In
February of 2024, HCI-T acquired an additional café in South Korea.
In
2023, the Company incorporated new subsidiaries Guangdong LeFu Wealth Investment Consulting Co., Ltd. (f.k.a. Shenzhen Leyouyou Catering
Management Co. Ltd.) and Dongguan Leyouyou Catering Management Co., Ltd. in the People’s Republic of China. These companies are
principally engaged in the food and beverage business in Mainland China.
Additionally,
through its subsidiary MOC HK Limited, the Company was focused on operating café business in Hong Kong. This business was acquired
on October 5, 2022. During the acquisition, a goodwill of $ 60,343 had been generated for the Company. The café was closed on September
16, 2024 and the goodwill was impaired during the year ended December 31, 2024.
In
the second quarter of 2024, the Company ceased operations of its subsidiary Alset F&B PLQ. Due to the closure of this subsidiary,
the Company wrote off $ 5,820 of fixed assets, which is included in general and administrative expenses and recorded a gain on termination
of lease of $ 246 , which is included in other income on the Company’s Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2024.
●
Remaining performance obligations
As
of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no remaining performance obligations or continuing involvement, as all service obligations
within the other business activities segment have been completed.
Deferred
Revenue
The
Company recognizes deferred revenue when payments are received in advance of fulfilling its performance obligations. Deferred revenue
at June 30, 2025, December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $ 15,631 , $ 0 , and $ 2,100 , respectively.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The
Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”.
ASC 718 requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including
stock options, based on the grant date fair value of the award and to recognize it as compensation expense over the period the employee
is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Stock option forfeitures are recognized at the
date of employee termination. During the three and six months ended on June 30, 2025, the Company recorded $ 840,000 as stock-based compensation
expense, which is included in General and Administrative expenses on the Company’s income statement. The fair value of stock-based compensation was determined based on the Company’s stock price on the date of
issuance. During the three and six months
ended on June 30, 2024, the Company recorded $ 0 as stock-based compensation expense.
Foreign
currency
Functional
and reporting currency
Items
included in the financial statements of each entity in the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment
in which the entity operates (“functional currency”). The financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. dollars
(the “reporting currency”).
The
functional and reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“U.S. dollar”). The financial records of the
Company’s subsidiaries located in Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, South Korea, the People’s Republic of China, and Taiwan
are maintained in their local currencies, the Singapore Dollar (S$), Hong Kong Dollar (HK$), Australian Dollar (“AUD”), South
Korean Won (“KRW”), Chinese Yuan (CN¥) and Taiwan Dollar (“NT$”), which are also the functional currencies
of these entities.
F- 16
Transactions
in foreign currencies
Transactions
in currencies other than the functional currency during the periods are converted into functional currency at the applicable rates of
exchange prevailing when the transactions occurred. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the statement of operations.
The
majority of the Company’s foreign currency transaction gains or losses come from the effects of foreign exchange rate changes on
the intercompany loans between Singapore entities and U.S. entities. The Company recorded foreign exchange loss of $ 4,834,398 and gain
of $ 845,350 during the three months ended on June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company recorded foreign exchange loss of $ 6,243,500
and gain of $ 2,038,986 during the six months ended on June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The foreign currency transactional gains
and losses are recorded in operations.
Translation
of consolidated entities’ financial statements
Monetary
assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the
rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. The Company’s entities with functional currency of S$, HK$, AUD, KRW, CN¥
and NT$, translate their operating results and financial positions into the U.S. dollar, the Company’s reporting currency. Assets
and liabilities are translated using the exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet date. Revenue, expense, gains and losses are translated
using the average rate for the year. Translation adjustments are reported as cumulative translation adjustments and are shown as a separate
component of comprehensive income (loss).
The
Company recorded other comprehensive gain of $ 4,577,462 from foreign currency translation for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and
$ 1,253,895 loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024, in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The Company recorded other comprehensive
gain of $ 5,994,872 from foreign currency translation for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and $ 2,064,408 loss for the six months ended
June 30, 2024, in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The foreign currency transactional gains and losses are recorded in operations.
Earnings
(Loss) per Share
The
Company presents basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share data for its common shares. Basic earnings (loss) per share are calculated
by dividing the profit or loss attributable to common stock shareholders of the Company by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding during the year, adjusted for treasury shares held by the Company.
Diluted
earnings (loss) per share are determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to common stock shareholders and the weighted-average
number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for treasury shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which
comprise convertible securities, such as stock options, convertible bonds and warrants. At June 30, 2025, there were 425,216 potentially
dilutive warrants outstanding. At December 31, 2024 there were 425,216 potentially dilutive warrants outstanding.
Basic
and diluted net loss per share is the same for both periods presented, as all potentially dilutive securities were antidilutive due to
the Company’s net loss in both periods presented.
Fair
Value Measurements
ASC
820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures , defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid
to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants on the measurement date. This topic also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires classification
based on observable and unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair
value:
Level
1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in an active market for identical assets or liabilities.
Level
2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets
or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level
3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity; therefore, the inputs are developed by the Company using estimates
and assumptions that the Company expects a market participant would use, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies,
or similar techniques.
F- 17
The
carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable
and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The liabilities in connection
with the conversion and make-whole features included within certain of the Company’s notes payable and warrants are each classified
as a level 3 liability.
Non-controlling
interests
Non-controlling
interests represent the equity in subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to owners of the Company, and are presented separately
in the condensed consolidated statements of operation and comprehensive income, and within equity in the Condensed Consolidated Balance
Sheets, separately from equity attributable to owners of the Company.
On
June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the aggregate non-controlling interests in the Company were $ 8,458,197 and $ 8,867,785 , respectively.
Impairment
of Long-lived Assets
Real
Estate
Our
policy is to annually obtain an independent third-party valuation for each major project in the United States to identify triggering
events for impairment. Our management may use a market comparison method to value other relatively small projects. In addition to the
annual assessment of potential triggering events in accordance with ASC 360 – Property Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360”),
we apply a fair value-based impairment test to the net book value assets on an annual basis and on an interim basis if certain events
or circumstances indicate that an impairment loss may have occurred.
Goodwill
The
Company evaluates goodwill on an annual basis in the fourth quarter or more frequently, if the management believes indicators of impairment
exist. Such indicators could include, but are not limited to (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate,
(2) unanticipated competition, or (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. The Company first assesses qualitative factors
to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill.
If management concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, management
conducts a quantitative goodwill impairment test. The impairment test involves comparing the fair value of the applicable reporting unit
with its carrying value. The Company estimates the fair values of its reporting units using a combination of the income, or discounted
cash flows, approach and the market approach, which utilizes comparable companies’ data. If the carrying amount of a reporting
unit exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the
total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
Loans
and Investments
The
Company evaluates loans and investments for impairment at each reporting date. For loans, impairment is recognized when it is probable
that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms. For investments, an impairment loss is
recorded if the decline in fair value is considered other-than-temporary. Impairment losses are measured based on the difference between
the carrying amount and estimated fair value, with changes recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.
F- 18
Capitalized
Financing Costs
Financing
costs, such as loan origination fee, administration fee, interests, and other related financing costs should be capitalized and recorded
on the balance sheet, if these financing activities are directly associated with the development of real estate.
Capitalized
financing costs are allocated to lots sold based on the total expected development and interest costs of the completed project and allocating
a percentage of those costs based on the selling price of the sold lot compared to the expected sales values of all lots in the project.
If the allocation of capitalized financing costs based on the projection and relative expected sales value is impracticable, those costs
could also be allocated based on an area method, which uses the size of the lots compared to the total project area and allocates costs
based on their size.
As
of December 31, 2024, the Company sold all of its lots and therefore did not capitalize any financing costs.
Related
Party Transactions
The
Company accounts for related party transactions in accordance with ASC 850 Related Party Disclosures . A party is considered to
be related to the Company if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is
under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate
families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls
or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might
be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies
of the transacting parties or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other
to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests is also a
related party.
Out-of-Period Adjustment
During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a $ 450,000 out-of-period adjustment to increase
other non-operating expenses to correct for an overpayment error made by the title company, as reported to the Company by the purchaser,
during the preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. This out-of-period adjustment represents an overstatement
of revenue of $ 450,000 in the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company has evaluated the impact of this error and out-of-period
adjustment, both quantitatively and qualitatively, and concluded that it is not material to the previously issued annual consolidated
financial statements and the adjustment is not expected to be material to the consolidated financial statements for the year ending December
31, 2025.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU
2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires that an entity, on an annual basis, disclose additional income tax information, primarily related
to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The amendment in the ASU 2023-09 is intended to enhance the transparency and decision
usefulness of income tax disclosures. The ASU 2023-09’s amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15,
2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have on its financial statements.
In
November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03 (“ASU 2024-03”), Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense
Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses , which is intended to improve disclosures
about a public business entity’s expenses, primarily through additional disaggregation of income statement expenses. ASU 2024-03
is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early
adoption permitted. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 should be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting
periods after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is
currently evaluating the ASU 2024-03 to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.

SEGMENTS
Operating
segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly
by the chief operating decision makers (the “CODMs”), or decision–making group, in deciding how to allocate resources
and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision makers are the two Co-CEOs, who review and assess the performance
of the Company as a whole. The Company reports its segment information to reflect the manner in which the CODMs review and assess performance.
The Company has four operating segments based on the products and services we offer, which include three of our principal businesses
– real estate, digital transformation technology and biohealth – as well as a fourth category consisting of certain other
business activities. In determination of segments, the Company, together with its CODMs, considers factors that include the nature of
business activities, allocation of resources and management structure.
The
primary financial measures used by the CODMs to evaluate performance and allocate resources are net income (loss) and operating income
(loss). The CODMs use net income (loss) and operating income (loss) to evaluate the performance of the Company’s ongoing operations
and as part of the Company’s internal planning and forecasting processes. Information on net income (loss) and operating income
(loss) is disclosed in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Segment expenses and other segment items are provided to the CODMs
on the same basis as disclosed in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Costs excluded from segment income (loss) before taxes and
reported as “Other” consist of corporate general and administrative activities which are not allocable to the four reportable
segments.
The
CODMs do not evaluate performance or allocate resources based on segment assets.
The
following table summarizes the Company’s segment information for the following balance sheet dates presented, and for the six months
ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

the underwriters accepted a combination of $ 325,000 in cash paid upon the closing of Business Combination, 149,443 shares of the Company’s
common stock and a $ 1,184,375 promissory note as full satisfaction. This agreement was effective at the closing of Business Combination

HWH shares at issuance on January 9, 2024 was $ 2.82 per share or $ 421,429 . No gain or loss was recognized upon issuance of the shares

rate equal to SOFR (secured overnight financing rate for U.S. Government Securities Business Day published by the Federal Reserve Bank
of New York) plus a margin of one percent. The principal amount of the promissory note and any accrued interest shall mature (i) partially
in the event HWH completes an offering within one year of the date of the promissory note, the amount of outstanding debt maturing being
proportionate to the amount of proceeds of the future offering, or (ii) in partial installments through October of 2028, the outstanding
balance being paid annually until the balance owed is paid in full. The first installment of the note that was due in October 2024 of
$ 236,875 was paid in January 2025, resulting in a default due to the delay in payment. We are currently in negotiations with EF Hutton

a Nevada corporation (“HWH-NV”) and HWH Merger Sub Inc., a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Alset Capital
(“Merger Sub”). The Company and its 85.8 % owned subsidiary Alset International own Alset Acquisition Sponsor, LLC, the sponsor

and Alset Capital changing its name to HWH International Inc. (“New HWH”).
The
total consideration paid at the closing of the Merger by New HWH to the HWH-NV shareholders was 12,500,000 shares of New HWH common stock.

statements and financial information were presented as of the beginning of the period as though the assets and liabilities had been transferred
at that date. The Company controlled both entities before and after the transaction and accordingly, the transaction had no effect on
the Company’s financial statements as the equity was eliminated in consolidation.

Convertible
Loan Receivables
The
Company has elected to recognize the convertible loan receivables at fair value and therefore there was no further evaluation of embedded
features for bifurcation. The Company engaged third party valuation firm to perform the valuation of convertible loans. The fair value
of the convertible loans is calculated using the binomial tree model based on probability of remaining as straight debt using discounted
cash flow.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company reclassified “Investment in securities at fair value
– related party,” “Investment in security at cost,” “Investment in equity method securities” and some
of “Convertible Loan Receivables at Fair Value – Related Party” from current assets to noncurrent assets in the consolidated
balance sheet based on management’s assessment of the expected holding period. This change in classification had no impact on the
Company’s consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, or shareholders’ equity.

The
Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”) to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability
for all the leases with terms greater than twelve months. We elected the practical expedient to not recognize operating lease right-of-use
assets and operating lease liabilities for lease agreements with terms less than 12 months. Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating
lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement
date. As our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rates, we estimate our incremental borrowing rates to discount the
lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. Our incremental borrowings rates are at a range from 0.35% to 7.2%
in 2025 and 2024, which were used as the discount rates. The Company’s weighted-average remaining lease term relating to its operating
leases is 2.02 years, with a weighted-average discount rate of 3.76 %. The balances of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating
lease liabilities as of June 30, 2025 were $ 1,197,576 and $ 1,280,867 , respectively. The balance of operating lease right-of-use assets
and operating lease liabilities as of December 31, 2024 were $ 1,468,913 and $ 1,525,169 , respectively.
