Corporate
History and Transformation
In
2021, the Company’s revenues came solely from technology licensing. By fiscal year 2024 and during fiscal year 2025, the Company
had transformed into a diversified global fintech with revenues from technology, financial planning, and brokerage trading operations.
The Company has undergone a significant transformation since its inception to the present:
In
December 2021, the Company acquired 51% of AD Advisory Services Pty Ltd. (ADS), an Australian wealth management firm. For fiscal year
2021, the Company reported revenue of $0.46 million and net assets of $1.41 million.
In
June 2023, the Company acquired 51% of Alchemy Markets Ltd. (AML), a Malta-based financial services firm regulated by the Malta Financial
Services Authority. For fiscal year 2022, the Company reported revenue of $6.4 million and net assets of $1.60 million.
In

Conduct Authority. For fiscal year 2023, the Company reported revenue of $12.8 million and net assets of $13.05 million.
In
March 2024, the Company established Alchemytech Ltd. (ATECH) in Cyprus as a technology, sales, and marketing service provider supporting
the Company’s subsidiaries and affiliated companies.
Fiscal
year 2024 represented the first full year of integration of ADS, AML, and APL. For fiscal year 2024, the Company reported revenue of
$26.9 million and net assets of $14.45 million.
In
October 2025, the Company acquired AIL, a key operational subsidiary within the Company’s expanding global architecture, enabling
the Company to serve a broader base of offshore brokerages, high-frequency traders, and institutional clients seeking regulated access
to foreign exchange and multi-asset markets.
In
November 2025, the Company established Xoala Asia, which was granted a Payment Intermediary Services (“PIS”) license by the
Financial Services Commission of Mauritius (the “FSC”) to operate as a payment intermediary in Mauritius. Xoala Asia holds
100% of Xoala AP Cyprus Ltd., a Cyprus company providing intra-group treasury and payment-processing services.
In
June 2026, Alchemytech Ltd. changed its name to T.I.C.G. Integrated Solutions Ltd., and the Company acquired 100% of Alchemy Markets
(Cayman) Ltd. (AML Cayman), a Cayman Islands company licensed by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority to conduct securities investment
business under a Broker/Dealer license. The acquisition extends the Company’s regulated brokerage footprint to the Cayman Islands.

Our
Business Segments
We
operate through four complementary business segments:
Margin
Brokerage: Through Alchemy Markets Ltd. (Malta, MFSA-regulated), Alchemy Prime Limited (UK, FCA-regulated), and Alchemy International
Ltd. (Seychelles, FSA-regulated), we provide multi-asset trading services in forex, CFDs, equities, commodities, and digital assets to
retail and institutional clients globally.
Wealth
Management: Through AD Advisory Services Pty Ltd. (Australia, ASIC-regulated), we operate a wealth management business with 26 financial
advisors managing and advising over $770 million in funds under advice under the aegis of our license, where we provide licensing solutions
and financial planning services to these financial advisors.
Technology
and Software Development: Through FDCTech and T.I.C.G. Integrated Solutions Ltd. (formerly Alchemytech Ltd.) (Cyprus), we develop and
license our proprietary Condor Trading Technology suite, including the Condor Pro Multi-Asset Trading Platform and Condor Risk Management
back-office system.
Payment
Intermediary Services: Through Xoala Asia (Mauritius, FSC-licensed), we are developing a payment gateway, merchant acquiring, and
cross-border payment capabilities to complement our brokerage and wealth management operations. This segment is in the early stages of
development.
During
the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company generated total revenue of $17,472,536, an increase of $12,052,745 (222.4%) over total
revenue of $5,419,791 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company generated total
revenue of $32,687,028, an increase of $21,290,289 (186.8%) over total revenue of $11,396,739 for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
The
substantial growth in revenue was driven primarily by the full-quarter contribution of Alchemy International Ltd. (“AIL”)
following the change of control approved by the Seychelles Financial Services Authority on October 29, 2025, and the closing of the acquisition
on November 11, 2025.
AIL,
a Seychelles-licensed securities dealer (license SD136) regulated by the Financial Services Authority, broadened the Company’s
regulated multi-asset brokerage footprint to include Seychelles in addition to Malta (AML, MFSA-regulated) and the United Kingdom (APL,
FCA-regulated), and added a base of offshore brokerages, high-frequency traders, and institutional clients seeking regulated access to
foreign exchange and multi-asset markets.
The
full-quarter contribution from AIL during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 (compared with no contribution during the three
and six months ended June 30, 2025) accounted for the substantial majority of the year-over-year increase in the Margin Brokerage segment.
The Technology and Software Development segment also contributed to the increase, while the Wealth Management segment was substantially
flat compared with the prior-year period. The Company also benefited from continued operating leverage on a substantially fixed cost
base.
The
Company is also pursuing a potential listing of its common stock on a national securities exchange (the New York Stock Exchange or the
Nasdaq Stock Market) in connection with a proposed public offering of equity securities. In connection with these initiatives, the Company
has engaged Lucosky Brookman LLP as legal counsel and is in discussions with E.F. Hutton and ThinkEquity LLC as financial advisors. The
completion of any such offering or listing is subject to market conditions and customary regulatory and exchange approvals, and no assurance
can be given that any such transaction will be completed.

Condition as of June 30, 2026
As
of June 30, 2026, the Company had total assets of $55,089,794, compared to $64,051,886 as of December 31, 2025, representing a decrease
of $8,962,092, or approximately 14.0%. Total assets at June 30, 2026, were comprised primarily of cash and cash equivalents of $18,184,787
and restricted cash (client funds, segregated) of $7,699,708, related party receivables of $21,783,493, accounts receivable (net of allowance

other current and non-current assets aggregating $2,596,061.
The
$8,962,092 decrease in total assets during the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily attributable to: (i) a decrease in related
party receivables of $18,306,558, as further described in Note 5, principally reflecting the net effect of cash collections and non-cash
netting arrangements with Alchemy DMCC during the period; (ii) a decrease in the fair value of trading positions for the firm of $1,094,757,
reflecting the closing-out and transfer of certain trading positions in the ordinary course; and (iii) net decreases in acquired intangible
assets, right-of-use lease assets, prepaid expenses, and other non-current assets in the ordinary course; partially offset by (iv) an
increase in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $8,214,746, reflecting cash generated from operations and the receipt by Alchemy
International Ltd. (“AIL”) of customer funds in connection with the expansion of its brokerage operations, (v) an increase
in accrued income of $2,017,206, and (vi) an increase in capitalized software (net) of $399,215.

The
$25,581,283 net decrease in total liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily attributable to: (i) a decrease
in related party advances payable of $27,265,673, principally reflecting the settlement of AIL’s net advances payable to Alchemy
DMCC through a combination of cash repayments and non-cash netting arrangements as further described in Note 5; (ii) a decrease in other
current liabilities of $1,301,578; and (iii) a decrease in deferred tax liabilities of $186,506; partially offset by (iv) an increase
in client funds payable of $1,885,820, reflecting growth in customer trading activity and customer deposits held by AIL in connection
with the expansion of its brokerage operations; (v) an increase in accrued expenses to related parties of $620,497, primarily representing
accrued executive compensation; (vi) an increase in accounts payable and line of credit of $378,138 in the aggregate, reflecting normal

payable of $170,382.
Stockholders’
Equity and Working Capital
As
of June 30, 2026, total stockholders’ equity attributable to FDCTech, Inc. stockholders was $39,313,273, compared to $22,657,965
as of December 31, 2025, representing an increase of $16,655,308, or approximately 73.5%. Total stockholders’ equity, including

equity as of June 30, 2026 consisted of preferred stock and common stock at par value, additional paid-in capital of $25,910,095, additional

7
The
$16,655,308 increase in stockholders’ equity attributable to FDCTech, Inc. stockholders during the six months ended June 30, 2026
was primarily attributable to: (i) net income attributable to FDCTech, Inc. shareholders of $14,578,197 for the period; and (ii) an increase
in additional paid-in capital of $2,295,047 arising from a transaction between entities under common control accounted for in accordance
with ASC 805-50, Transactions Between Entities Under Common Control, with the residual change reflecting movement in accumulated other
comprehensive loss during the period. No new shares of the Company’s common stock or preferred stock were issued during the three
and six months ended June 30, 2026.
Working
capital, defined as total current assets less total current liabilities, was $33,063,252 as of June 30, 2026, compared to $17,831,410
as of December 31, 2025, representing an increase of $15,231,842, or approximately 85.4%. The increase in working capital reflects the
combined effect of the increase in cash and cash equivalents and the settlement of the December 31, 2025, related party advances payable
balance described above, partially offset by the increase in customer funds payable during the period. The Company’s improved working
capital position, together with cash generated from operations, is expected to support the Company’s ongoing operations and growth
initiatives for at least the next twelve months.
Note
on Common Control Transactions Affecting Additional Paid-in Capital
The
Company’s acquisitions of Alchemy Markets Ltd. (“AML”), Alchemy Prime Ltd. (“APL”), and Alchemy International
Ltd. (“AIL”) were transactions between entities under common control, as each of AML, APL, and AIL was, at the date of the
respective acquisition, controlled by Mr. Gope S. Kundnani, who is also a Director and the principal beneficial owner of the voting securities
of the Company. Accordingly, the Company has accounted for these acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805-50, Transactions Between Entities
Under Common Control. Under this guidance, the assets and liabilities of AML, APL, and AIL were recognized in the Company’s consolidated
financial statements at the historical carrying values of the transferor on the respective dates of transfer, and no goodwill or intangible
assets were recognized in connection with these common-control combinations. The difference between the consideration transferred by
the Company and the historical carrying value of the net assets received was recorded as an adjustment to additional paid-in capital.
During
the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded a net increase to additional paid-in capital of $2,295,047 in connection
with the finalization of the consolidation entries relating to the acquisition of AIL, which was completed on November 11, 2025. The
adjustment reflects the difference between the consideration transferred by the Company in connection with the AIL acquisition and AIL’s
historical carrying value of net assets as of the acquisition date, the determination of which was finalized during the three and six
months ended June 30, 2026. No new shares of the Company’s common stock or preferred stock were issued in connection with this
adjustment, and the adjustment had no effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, or total stockholders’ equity
in the aggregate during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, other than as reflected within the components of stockholders’
equity.
The
Company’s acquisition of AD Advisory Services Pty Ltd. (“ADS”), an Australia-incorporated subsidiary, in which the
Company acquired a 51% controlling interest, was not a transaction between entities under common control. The ADS acquisition was effected
at arm’s length with an unrelated counterparty and was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805-10, Business Combinations,
using the acquisition method. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of ADS were recognized at their estimated fair values as of the
acquisition date, and acquired intangible assets, including goodwill (carrying value of $1,280,522 at June 30, 2026), were recognized
in connection with the ADS acquisition, representing the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the identifiable
net assets acquired. The noncontrolling interest in ADS was measured at the proportionate share of the fair value of the identifiable
net assets at the acquisition date. No adjustment to additional paid-in capital was recognized in connection with the ADS acquisition.
Financial
Condition at December 31, 2025
As
of December 31, 2025, the Company had total assets of $64,051,886, comprised primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash
of $17,669,749, related party receivables of $40,090,051, accounts receivable, net of $188,415, capitalized software (net) of $1,480,246,
and other balance-sheet items as further described in the Company’s Annual.
Report
on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
Total
liabilities at December 31, 2025, were $41,360,598, comprised primarily of related party advances payable of $29,197,470 (of which $27,265,673
was settled during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 — see Note 5 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements); accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities; the SBA loan; the business acquisition loan; and lease
and other obligations.
Total
stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2025, was $22,691,288, including an accumulated surplus of $3,401,487. Working capital at
December 31, 2025, was $17,831,410.

Revenue
Total
revenue increased to $17,472,536 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $5,419,791 for the three months ended June 30,
2025, an increase of $12,052,745, or approximately 222.4%. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, total revenue was $32,687,028, compared
to $11,396,739 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $21,290,289, or approximately 186.8%. The growth was driven primarily
by the Margin Brokerage segment, which contributed $14,264,990 of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to
$2,587,906 for the comparable prior-year period, representing an increase of $11,677,084, or approximately 451.2%, and $26,274,408 for
the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $6,216,255 for the comparable prior-year period, representing an increase of $20,058,153,
or approximately 322.7%. The increase in Margin Brokerage revenue reflects the full-quarter contribution of Alchemy International Ltd.
(“AIL”) following the closing of the AIL acquisition on November 11, 2025 (with the change of control approved by the Seychelles
Financial Services Authority on October 29, 2025), together with the continuing operations of the Company’s other regulated brokerage
subsidiaries, Alchemy Markets Ltd. (“AML”) in Malta and Alchemy Prime Ltd. (“APL”) in the United Kingdom.
Technology
and software revenue was $1,393,442 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $1,178,215 for the comparable prior-year period,
representing an increase of $215,227, or approximately 18.3%, and $3,032,664 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $1,991,962
for the comparable prior-year period, representing an increase of $1,040,702, or approximately 52.2%, in each case reflecting the expansion
of the Company’s technology and platform services to its expanded broker-dealer client base. Wealth Management revenue was $1,814,104
for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $1,653,670 for the comparable prior-year period, representing an increase of $160,434,
or approximately 9.7%, and $3,379,956 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $3,188,522 for the comparable prior-year period,
representing an increase of $191,434, or approximately 6.0%.
Cost
of Sales and Gross Profit
Cost
of sales was $5,598,307 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $3,114,093 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an
increase of $2,484,214, or approximately 79.8%. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, cost of sales was $9,181,645, compared to $6,231,482
for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $2,950,163, or approximately 47.3%. The increase in cost of sales principally
reflects higher liquidity-provider, payment-processing, and clearing costs incurred in support of the Margin Brokerage and Wealth Management
segments. The rate of increase in cost of sales was substantially lower than the rate of increase in revenue, principally as a result
of (i) operating leverage on the Margin Brokerage segment’s fixed-cost base relative to substantially higher transaction volumes,
and (ii) the reclassification, in the restated comparative period, of Alchemytech Ltd. cost of sales from the Technology & Software
segment to the Brokerage segment, which reduced technology cost of sales in both periods presented.
10
Gross
profit was $11,874,229 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $2,305,698 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an
increase of $9,568,531, or approximately 415.0%. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, gross profit was $23,505,383, compared to $5,165,257
for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $18,340,126, or approximately 355.1%. Consolidated gross margin was approximately
68.0% and 42.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, and 2025, respectively, and approximately 71.9% and 45.3% for the six months
ended June 30, 2026, and 2025, respectively, principally reflecting the change in revenue mix toward the higher-margin Margin Brokerage
segment.
Operating
Expenses
Total
operating expenses were $4,490,349 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $2,472,243 for the three months ended June 30,
2025, an increase of $2,018,106, or approximately 81.6%. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, total operating expenses were $9,262,607,
compared to $4,923,957 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $4,338,650, or approximately 88.1%. For the three months
ended June 30, 2026, the increase reflects higher general and administrative expense of $4,230,569 (compared to $2,135,030, an increase of $2,095,539, or approximately 98.2%) and higher depreciation expense of $45,695 (compared to $43,276, an increase of $2,419, or approximately
5.6%), partially offset by lower sales and marketing expense of $214,085 (compared to $293,937, a decrease of $79,852, or approximately
27.2%). For the six months ended June 30, 2026, general and administrative expense was $8,551,882 (compared to $4,271,708, an increase
of $4,280,174, or approximately 100.2%), sales and marketing expense was $618,387 (compared to $570,141, an increase of $48,246, or approximately
8.5%), and depreciation expense was $92,338 (compared to $82,108, an increase of $10,230, or approximately 12.5%).
The
increase in general and administrative expense principally reflects additional compliance, audit, legal, and personnel-related
expenses to support the Company’s expanded operating footprint following the AIL acquisition, together with professional fees
and other costs incurred in connection with the Company’s contemplated listing of its common stock on a national securities
exchange and the related proposed public offering. The increase in sales and marketing expense for the six-month period reflects
expanded promotional and marketing activities in support of the Company’s broader brokerage and technology client base, as
further described in Note 2.
Operating
Income
Operating
income was $7,383,880 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to an operating loss of $(166,545) for the three months ended
June 30, 2025, representing an improvement of $7,550,425. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, operating income was $14,242,776, compared
to operating income of $241,300 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, representing an increase of $14,001,476. The increase in operating
income reflects the increase in gross profit described above, partially offset by the increase in total operating expenses described
above.
Other
Income (Expense), Net
Total
other income (expense), net, was net other income of $292,125 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net other expense
of $(258,911) for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an improvement of $551,036. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, total other
income (expense), net, was net other income of $306,736, compared to net other expense of $(352,634) for the six months ended June 30,
2025, an improvement of $659,370. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, total other income (expense), net, consisted of other interest
income of $72,848 (compared to $10,986 for the comparable prior-year period) and other income of $219,277 (compared to $(269,897) for
the comparable prior-year period). For the six months ended June 30, 2026, it consisted of other interest income of $205,296 (compared
to $15,469) and other income of $101,440 (compared to $(368,103)). The change principally reflects foreign exchange gains and losses
on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the applicable subsidiary, interest income on operating
cash balances, and other miscellaneous items.
Net
Income and Earnings per Share
Net income was $7,676,005 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to a net loss of $(425,456) for the
three months ended June 30, 2025, an improvement of $8,101,461. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, net income was $14,549,512, compared
to a net loss of $(111,334) for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an improvement of $14,660,846. No provision for income taxes was recorded
for any period presented; as described in Note 14, the Company had not received complete income tax information from its foreign subsidiaries
as of the date of this Report, and management currently estimates the consolidated provision for the six months ended June 30, 2026, once
determined, in the range of approximately $83,000 to $177,000. Investors should not regard the absence of a recorded tax provision as
an indication that the Company’s foreign operations bear no income tax. Net income attributable to FDCTech, Inc. stockholders was $7,710,931
for the three months ended June 30, 2026 ($1.82 per share basic and $0.03 per share diluted), compared to a net loss attributable to FDCTech,
Inc. stockholders of $(437,923) for the three months ended June 30, 2025 ($(0.10) per share, basic and diluted), and $14,578,197 for the
six months ended June 30, 2026 ($3.45 per share basic and $0.06 per share diluted), compared to a net loss of $(145,111) for the six months
ended June 30, 2025 ($(0.03) per share, basic and diluted).
Diluted
per-share amounts for the 2026 periods reflect the assumed conversion of the 2,371,844 outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock at 100 shares of Common Stock per preferred share, being the most dilutive rate available under the Certificate of Designation.
Because the applicable conversion rate had not been fixed as of June 30, 2026, that rate has been used for the periods presented. On
July 13, 2026 the Board fixed the conversion rate at 50 shares of Common Stock per preferred share, as described in Note 16.

$15,231,842, or approximately 85.4%. The increase in working capital principally reflects the settlement of $27,265,673 of related party
advances payable during the six months ended June 30, 2026, together with the continued generation of operating cash flow, partially
offset by an increase in customer funds payable in connection with the expansion of the Company’s brokerage operations.

of $1,301,578.
Cash
Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $(472,602) for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net cash
used in investing activities of $(202,708) for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months
ended June 30, 2026 principally consisted of (i) capitalized software development costs, net, of $464,777 and (ii) purchases of fixed
assets of $8,142, partially offset by (iii) $317 of net investment activity in private entities. Capital expenditure of $73,704 that was
previously reported within operating activities as “Fixed assets, net” has been reclassified to investing activities, comprising
$65,562 of capitalized software development costs and $8,142 of purchases of fixed assets. The $2,295,047 common-control adjustment to
additional paid-in capital previously reported within investing activities has been reclassified to financing activities. The comparable
prior-year period has been conformed to this presentation, reclassifying $74,721 of fixed asset purchases from operating activities and
$1,529,884 of common-control paid-in capital movements from investing to financing activities.
Cash
Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $35,308,397 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net
cash used in financing activities of $(3,619,920) for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Net cash provided by financing activities for
the six months ended June 30, 2026 principally consisted of (i) $32,831,092 of related party advances, presented excluding the non-cash
settlement arrangements described in Note 5; (ii) the $2,295,047 common-control adjustment to additional paid-in capital arising from
a transaction between entities under common control accounted for in accordance with ASC 805-50, Transactions Between Entities Under Common
Control, of which $2,151,066 is disclosed as a non-cash item; and (iii) net draws of $186,510 on the Company’s lines of credit,
partially offset by (iv) net repayments of $4,252 on the Company’s SBA loan.
Net
Change in Cash

by $8,214,746 during the six months ended June 30, 2026, comprising net cash used in operating activities of $(21,138,011), net cash used
in investing activities of $(472,602), net cash provided by financing activities of $35,308,397, the effect of exchange rate changes on
cash of $(217,936), a $(7,432) change in the noncontrolling interest share of subsidiary net assets, and the $(5,257,670) non-cash assignment
of the Company’s liquidity-provider balance previously included within cash and cash equivalents. Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted
cash were $25,884,495 as of June 30, 2026, compared to $17,669,749 as of December 31, 2025.
Long-Term
Obligations and Capital Adequacy
As
of June 30, 2026, the Company’s principal long-term contractual obligations consisted of (i) the SBA loan in the non-current principal
amount of $101,426, which bears interest at a rate of 3.75% per annum and is scheduled to mature thirty (30) years from the date of the
underlying promissory note; (ii) the Business acquisition loan of $2,350,000, comprising the $350,000 withheld portion of the purchase
consideration owed to the former shareholders of Alchemy Markets Ltd. (which is currently the subject of litigation as further described
in Note 7) and the $2,000,000 non-interest bearing seller financing obligation owed to Sync Capital Limited, an entity controlled and
owned by Mr. Gope S. Kundnani, a Director and majority shareholder of the Company, which obligation matures on September 30, 2026 and
is repayable from the proceeds of the Company’s contemplated listing of its common stock on a national securities exchange; (iii)
operating lease liabilities (current and non-current) of $482,055 in the aggregate, principally relating to the Company’s office
facilities (see Note 8); and (iv) deferred tax liabilities of $191,469 and accrued non-current interest of $39,609.
Management
believes that the Company’s existing cash and cash equivalents, anticipated cash flows generated from operations, and available
borrowings under its existing credit lines will be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations and meet its known contractual obligations
and capital commitments for at least the twelve (12) months following the date of this Report. The Company may, from time to time, raise
additional capital through private or public offerings of equity or debt securities, or through additional credit facilities, to support
its strategic growth initiatives, including in connection with the Company’s contemplated listing of its common stock on a national
securities exchange and any related underwritten public offering. There can be no assurance that additional capital, if needed, will
be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all.

GOING
CONCERN CONSIDERATION
The
Company has prepared its accompanying consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization
of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and other commitments in the ordinary course of business. In accordance with Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements — Going Concern, management has evaluated
whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these consolidated financial statements are issued.
As
of June 30, 2026, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $25,884,495, working capital of $33,063,252, total stockholders’
equity of $39,310,479, and an accumulated surplus of $17,979,684, compared to cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $17,669,749,
working capital of $17,831,410, total stockholders’ equity of $22,691,288, and an accumulated surplus of $3,401,487 as of December
31, 2025. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company generated revenues of $32,687,028 (compared to $11,396,739 for the six
months ended June 30, 2025), net income of $14,549,512 (of which $14,578,197 was attributable to the stockholders of FDCTech, Inc. and
$(28,685) was attributable to noncontrolling interests, compared to a consolidated net loss of $(111,334) for the six months ended June
30, 2025), and net cash used in operating activities of $(21,138,011) (compared to net
cash used in operating activities of $(2,819,517) for the six months ended June 30, 2025).
Based
on management’s evaluation of the Company’s historical and projected operating cash flows, existing cash and cash equivalents,
working capital position, accumulated surplus, available borrowing capacity under existing credit facilities, and known contractual obligations
and capital commitments, management has concluded that the Company’s existing cash and cash equivalents and anticipated cash flows
from operations are sufficient to fund the Company’s operations and meet its known obligations as they become due for at least
the twelve months following the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, management has concluded that
there is no substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these
consolidated financial statements are issued.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
We
have based our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations on our financial statements,
which we have prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In preparing our financial statements, we must
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting periods.
In
more detail, we have described significant accounting policies in Note 2 of our annual financial statements included in our Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, as most recently amended by Amendment No. 4 on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on July 1,
2026. We continually evaluate our critical accounting estimates and judgments, as required by our policies, and update them as necessary
based on changing conditions.
13
JOBS
Act Accounting Election
Prior
to December 31, 2022, the Company qualified as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups
Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and, as permitted under the JOBS Act, elected to delay the adoption of new or revised financial
accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company ceased to qualify as an emerging growth
company effective December 31, 2022. Accordingly, the extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting
standards is no longer available to the Company, and the Company applies the effective dates applicable to public business entities for
all periods presented in this Report.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
We have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in
Item 303 of the SEC’s Regulation S-K. We had no relationships with unconsolidated organizations or financial partnerships, such
as structured finance or special purpose entities that would have been established to facilitate off-balance sheet arrangements or other
contractually narrow or limited purposes.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
The
Company evaluates all Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)
for applicability and impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In
November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which
requires public entities to disclose significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker, an amount
and description of other segment items, and additional segment information. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 effective January 1, 2024,
on a retrospective basis. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements but expanded
segment disclosures.
In
December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires public
business entities to disclose, on an annual basis, specific categories in the rate reconciliation and information about income taxes
paid by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The
Company adopted ASU 2023-09 effective January 1, 2025, on a prospective basis; the adoption expanded the Company’s annual income
tax disclosures and did not affect its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In
November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income — Expense Disaggregation Disclosures
(Subtopic 220-40),” which requires public business entities to disclose disaggregated information about specific income statement
expense categories. ASU 2024-03 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim
periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating
the impact on its consolidated financial statement disclosures.
