NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note 1 – Business Organization, Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
Hyperion DeFi, Inc. (“Hyperion DeFi” or the “Company”), formerly known as Eyenovia, Inc., is the first U.S. publicly listed company building a long-term strategic treasury of HYPE. Hyperion DeFi is working to provide its shareholders with simplified exposure to the Hyperliquid ecosystem. At the same time, the Company continues to execute on its planned completion of the development and registration of its Optejet ophthalmic liquid delivery device.
HYPE is the native token of Hyperliquid, a decentralized Layer-1 blockchain designed for high-frequency, transparent trading. Hyperliquid supports fully on-chain perpetual futures and spot order books, operating with block times of approximately 70 milliseconds. Hyperion DeFi’s strategy is designed to allow shareholders to benefit from a gradually compounding exposure to HYPE, both from its native staking yield and additional revenues generated from its unique on-chain utility.
Hyperion DeFi is also completing development of its proprietary Optejet User Filled Device, designed to work with a variety of topical ophthalmic liquids, including artificial tears and lens rewetting products. The Optejet is especially useful in chronic front-of-the-eye diseases due to its ease of use, enhanced safety and tolerability.
Beginning in July 2025, the Company used the proceeds from its capital raising activities to acquire and deploy HYPE in various revenue-generating activities, which includes native staking, liquid staking and its proprietary HYPE Asset Use Service product.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2025 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ending December 31, 2025 or any other period. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related disclosures of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and for the year then ended, which were included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 15, 2025 (the “2024 Form 10-K”), as amended by Amendment No. 1, filed with the SEC on April 30, 2025 (the “2024 Form 10-K Amendment”).
On January 31, 2025, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio of 1-for-80 (the “Reverse Split”). Upon the effectiveness of the Reverse Split, every 80 issued shares of common stock were reclassified and combined into one share of common stock. In addition, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Company’s equity awards, convertible securities and warrants was proportionally decreased, and the corresponding conversion price or exercise price was proportionally increased. No fractional shares were issued as a result of the Reverse Split. Stockholders who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional share received a cash payment in lieu of such fractional share. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts for all periods presented in these condensed financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted retroactively, where applicable, to reflect the Reverse Split and adjustment of the conversion price or exercise price of each outstanding equity award, convertible security and warrant as if the transaction had occurred as of the beginning of the earliest period presented.

Note 2 – Management’s Liquidity Plans
The Company’s primary source of liquidity has historically been cash generated from equity offerings and debt, along with periodic revenue generated from licensing agreements. Under ASC Subtopic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern, the Company has the responsibility to evaluate whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about its ability to meet future financial obligations as they become due within one year after the date that these financial statements are issued. Since the Company’s inception, it has had a history of recurring net losses from operations, recurring use of cash in operating activities and working capital deficits.
As disclosed in the Company’s December 31, 2024 Form 10-K, there was substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the date the financial statements were issued. This was based on a significant working capital deficiency, significant historical losses and the need to raise additional funds to meet the Company’s obligations and sustain its operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company raised significant capital through both an ATM offering and a private placement of Series A preferred stock (see Note 10 – Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit). A significant amount of the proceeds generated from these capital raises was used to purchase digital assets in connection with the launch of the Company’s new long-term strategic treasury of HYPE. The Company also extended the maturity date of its Loan and Security Agreement (see Note 8 – Notes Payable and Convertible Notes Payable). These actions have alleviated the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern that existed at the time the Company filed its December 31, 2024 Form 10-K.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of approximately $ 8.2 million and working capital of $ 5.0 million. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company generated net income of approximately $ 6.6 million and incurred a net loss of approximately $ 5.5 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company used cash in operating activities of approximately $ 10.7 million. Based on the Company’s current financial condition and forecast of cash flow needs for the next twelve months, Management expects that the Company’s existing resources will be sufficient to enable the Company to fund its anticipated level of operations through one year from the date of this report.
The Company’s financial condition is substantially dependent on the market price and liquidity of HYPE tokens, which are subject to extreme volatility and limited trading venues. Substantially all of the Company’s treasury assets are concentrated in HYPE tokens, the native cryptocurrency of the Hyperliquid protocol. HYPE tokens have experienced significant price volatility, and the Company’s financial results and carrying value of its digital assets will fluctuate materially based on HYPE token price movements. The Company depends on the continued success and adoption of the Hyperliquid protocol for the value of its treasury holdings.
The Company plans to continue to pursue additional capital through its at-the-market offering programs in the future, however, such funding may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. Although Management believes that such capital sources will continue to be available, there can be no assurances that financing will be available to the Company when needed, or if available, on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate financing on terms that are satisfactory to the Company, when the Company requires it, the Company’s ability to continue to grow or support the business and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited, which may adversely affect the Company’s business plans.
Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company disclosed its significant accounting policies in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in the 2024 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, except as disclosed below.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents in the financial statements. The Company has cash deposits in financial institutions that, at times, may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. The Company has not experienced losses in such accounts and periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of its financial institutions. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalent balances in excess of FDIC insurance limits of $ 7,860,006 .

Digital Assets
The Company’s digital assets primarily include HYPE (the Hyperliquid network’s utility token) and HiHYPE (a liquid staking token). HYPE is accounted for in accordance with ASC 350-60, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (“ASC 350-60”). HiHYPE is treated as an intangible asset in accordance with ASC 350-30, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill (“ASC 350-30”) as the HiHYPE represents a claim on HYPE and therefore, does not meet the scoping requirements of ASC 350-60.
HYPE digital assets are initially recorded at cost and then subsequently remeasured at fair value as of the balance sheet date with changes in fair value recognized as unrealized gains or losses in operating income (expense). Upon derecognition of HYPE, the Company recognizes realized gains or losses in operating income (expense), based upon the fair value of HYPE on the date of derecognition.
HiHYPE tokens and Other Digital Assets are intangible assets with indefinite lives; they are not amortized but are subject to impairment. HiHYPE is recorded at acquisition cost, reflecting the fair value of HYPE deposited in the liquid staking pool and tracked by lot. These assets are presented as digital intangible assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at cost, net of any recognized impairments. The Company tests digital intangible assets for impairment quarterly and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. The test for impairment consists of a comparison of the fair value of the digital intangible assets with their carrying amounts. Should market prices fall below carrying value, the resulting difference is recognized as an impairment charge. Such impairment charges are presented as impairment of digital intangible assets in operating income (expense).
The Company uses the specific identification method to track the cost basis of all digital intangible assets.
Fair Value Measurement
The Company determines fair value measurements for digital assets in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”), which defines fair value as the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an ordinary transaction between market participants. ASC 820 establishes a framework for valuation techniques, prioritized by reliability, according to the following tiers:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for similar or identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; valuation models in which all significant inputs are derived from observable market data
Level 3 - Unobservable valuation model inputs for assets and liabilities such as discounted cash flow models or similar techniques; inputs for fair value instruments; includes assumptions and may require significant judgment and estimation by management
The Company’s digital assets are subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis and the level of inputs used for such measurements were as follows:

HYPE digital assets are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using quoted prices in its principal market (Level 1 inputs). The Company has designated a principal market based on the market the Company has access to that has the greatest volume and level of orderly transactions for HYPE. The Company reassesses its principal market when facts and circumstances change, including but not limited to when new markets become accessible, or the volume/activity in the current principal market declines.

Revenue Recognition
The Company jointly operates a validator node on the Hyperliquid blockchain network and earns HYPE as rewards and commission income for validating transactions and maintaining network security. These activities include both self-staking (using the Company’s own tokens) and providing validation services to third-party delegators. The provision of services related to transaction validation on the Hyperliquid blockchain network (through both staking rewards and commission income) is an output of the Company’s ordinary activities.
The Company recognizes revenue from native staking in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) by following the five steps -- identify the contract, identify the performance obligation, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation and determine when to recognize revenue. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services (i.e., performance obligations) to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for promised goods or services.
The Company earns commission income in the form of HYPE from validator operations and staking rewards in the form of HYPE from self-staking. A contract with enforceable rights and obligations exists when the Company stakes its tokens to the validator and starts solving blocks on the Hyperliquid blockchain, which is the customer by analogy. The contract term is the length of each staking epoch, which is approximately 90 minutes. Staking rewards and commission income are recognized as revenue when the Company satisfies its performance obligations (i.e., successfully validates blocks or transactions as determined by the protocol) ratably over the contract term. The HYPE earned are noncash consideration and therefore measured at fair value at the inception of each contract.
Because the Company does not unilaterally control the validator, the Company is not the principal to the validation service. As such, the Company presents staking rewards and commission income as revenue on a net basis, reflecting only the portion of protocol rewards and commission to which it is entitled.
Income Tax
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law, which makes permanent many of the tax provisions enacted in 2017 as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that were set to expire at the end of 2025. In addition, OBBBA makes changes to certain U.S. corporate tax provisions, but many are generally not effective until 2026. While further evaluation is ongoing, the new tax legislation is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period balances have been reclassified in order to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported results of operations or loss per share.
Note 4 - Net Income (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock
The Company’s net income (loss) per share is calculated using the two-class method in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. The two-class method allocates earnings between common stockholders and holders of participating securities. The Company’s Series A Preferred Stock (see Note 10 - Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) – Securities Purchase Agreement) are deemed to be participating securities due to their rights to participate in dividends with common stock. However, the two-class method has no impact on the calculation of loss per share during periods when the Company has a net loss, because the holders of participating securities are not required to absorb losses.
Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the common share equivalents had been issued (computed using the treasury stock or if converted method), if dilutive. There were no dilutive securities outstanding during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 or the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

for HiHYPE. For the period ending September 30, 2025, the Company reported an impairment loss of $ 6.3 million on the condensed statement of operations under impairment of digital intangible assets.
HYPE Staking
Beginning in July 2025, the Company used the proceeds from its capital raising activities to acquire and deploy HYPE in staking activities, which includes native staking and liquid staking.
Native Staking
The Company jointly operates a co-branded Hyperliquid validator, known as “Kinetiq × Hyperion” (“KxH”), with Kinetiq Research Pte (“Kinetiq”) and Pier Two Pty Ltd (“Pier Two”). Commission income from validation services, in the form of HYPE, is shared among the Company, Kinetiq and Pier Two. The Company participates in native staking by delegating its own HYPE digital assets to the co-branded KxH validator node and receives staking rewards in return. The Company is also entitled to commission income charged to third party delegators, for successfully validating transactions. These rewards are received by the Company directly from the Hyperliquid network.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had native staked 534,664 HYPE to the KxH validator node. The Company earned 7,116 HYPE valued at $ 302,506 from such staking activities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Liquid Staking
The Company engages in liquid staking arrangements, through staking HYPE in exchange for a receipt token (HiHYPE). HiHYPE is a liquid staking receipt token with a floating redemption rate, based on the value of underlying staked HYPE and related rewards, penalties, and fees. HiHYPE can be transferred, monetized, and used in other types of transactions, even while the underlying HYPE assets remain staked.
Upon depositing HYPE into the liquid staking pool, the Company recognizes any realized gains or losses on the HYPE in accordance with ASC 610-20, Other Income—Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets as the Company does not control the HYPE deposited into the liquid staking pool.
Staking rewards that accrued to staked HYPE in the liquid staking pool were not recognized as revenue in the quarter ended September 30, 2025. These rewards will not be recognized until HiHYPE tokens are redeemed or sold. No HiHYPE was redeemed or sold in the quarter ending September 30, 2025.

First Quarter 2025 Amendment
On February 21, 2025, the Company entered into a Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to Supplement to the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Avenue Loan Agreement”) with Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund, L.P., and Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund II, L.P., (together “Avenue” or the “Lenders”) whereby the Lenders agreed to defer principal and interest payments on amounts outstanding until the end of September 2025. Deferred interest continued to accrue on the outstanding principal amount at the interest rate stated in the original Avenue Loan Agreement.
Under the Second Amendment, the Company agreed to use a portion of the proceeds from its at-the-market offering (see Note 10 – Stockholders’ Equity, At-The-Market Offering) to pay down the outstanding principal amount under the Avenue Loan Agreement as follows: a) until the Company raised $ 3.0 million of aggregate proceeds, 65 % of the proceeds would be remitted to the Lenders as a payment in respect of the outstanding principal amount, and b) after the Company raised $ 3.0 million of aggregate proceeds, 75 % of the proceeds would be remitted to the Lenders as a payment in respect of the outstanding principal amount. In connection with the Second Amendment, the Company paid Avenue $ 1.7 million in net proceeds, of which $ 1.4 million was applied to principal and $ 0.3 million was applied to interest, received from the at-the-market offering for the period from February 21, 2025 to June 17, 2025, which was equivalent to 65 % of the proceeds raised less a negotiated adjustment of $ 0.3 million. This requirement was eliminated in conjunction with the Fourth Amendment to Supplement to the Avenue Loan Agreement (the “Fourth Amendment”) executed on June 17, 2025.
Pursuant to the Second Amendment, at any time on or after April 1, 2025, the Lenders also had the right, at their discretion, but not the obligation, to convert an aggregate amount of up to $ 10.0 million of the aggregate principal amount under the Avenue Loan Agreement into shares of the Company’s common stock, at a conversion price equal to $ 1.68 per share. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, Avenue converted principal of $ 680,098 (less $ 39,762 of debt discount) into 404,820 shares of common stock. The conversion feature was eliminated in conjunction with the Fourth Amendment executed on June 17, 2025.
The Second Amendment of the Avenue Loan was accounted for as an extinguishment, due to the addition of the substantive conversion option. Accordingly, the $ 10.3 million modification date carrying value of the pre-modification Avenue Loan was derecognized and the $ 10.2 million modification date fair value of the post-modification Avenue Loan was recognized, resulting in the recording of a $ 0.1 million extinguishment gain. The post-modification Avenue Loan was valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model using the following key assumptions: (a) discount rate of 70.0 %; (b) volatility of 130.0 %; and (b) risk-free rate of 4.2 %.
Second Quarter 2025 Amendments
On May 30, 2025, the Company entered into the Third Amendment to Supplement to the Avenue Loan Agreement (the “Third Amendment”). Pursuant to the Third Amendment, the conversion rights provided to the Lenders under the Second Amendment were revised to restrict the Lenders from exercising such conversion right if doing so would cause the Lenders and their affiliates to beneficially own more than 9.99 % of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock immediately after the conversion. The Lenders had the ability to increase or decrease the beneficial ownership limitation up to a maximum of 19.99 % of the Company’s outstanding

(UNAUDITED)
shares of common stock with a written notice to the Company and provided that such an increase in the beneficial ownership limitation would not have been effective until 61 st day following the written notice. Additionally, the Third Amendment provided that if a significant corporate event occurred (such as a merger, asset sale, or stock recapitalization) while the conversion option remained in effect, the Lenders would have retained the right to convert the loan as if the conversion had occurred immediately prior to such event. The Company determined that the Third Amendment should be accounted for as a modification and continuation of the existing indebtedness. The conversion feature was eliminated in conjunction with the Fourth Amendment executed on June 17, 2025.
On June 17, 2025, the Company entered into the Fourth Amendment which, among other things, extended the maturity date of the loans to July 1, 2028; provided for an interest-only period from July 1, 2025 until January 31, 2027; reduced the interest rate from 12.0 % to 8.0 % (payable half in cash and half in kind); eliminated the option to convert an aggregate amount of up to $ 10.0 million of the loans outstanding into shares of common stock; eliminated the final payment of $ 637,500 ; and provided the Company with the option to prepay the debt owed under the Avenue Loan Agreement.
In connection with the Fourth Amendment, the Company issued to the Lenders warrants (the “Lender Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 350,000 shares of common stock. The Lender Warrants are exercisable immediately and may be exercised for five years from the initial issuance date at an exercise price of $ 4.00 per share. The Lender Warrants, if still outstanding at the expiration date, will be automatically exercised on a cashless basis. The Company determined that the Lender Warrants should be equity classified and valued the Lender Warrants at $ 858,270 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following inputs (common stock market price of $ 2.97 ; volatility of 124 %; dividend rate of 0.00 % and risk-free rate of 3.99 %).
The Company determined that the Fourth Amendment should be accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring. Because the remaining undiscounted cash flows of the Avenue Loan exceed the June 17, 2025 carrying value, no gain will be recognized and a new effective interest rate was established based on the new carrying value of the Avenue Loan and the amended cash flows. Finally, the $ 858,270 value of the Lender Warrants was capitalized as additional debt discount and will be amortized over the new term of the Avenue Loan.

Note 10 – Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit)
Increase of 2018 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan Shares
On January 21, 2025, the stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated 2018 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan to reserve an additional 350,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance thereunder, which number of shares was not adjusted to reflect the Reverse Split.
On August 19, 2025, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to its Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended with the Secretary of State of Delaware to increase the total number of shares of common stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share, that the Company will have authority to issue from 300,000,000 shares to 600,000,000 shares and the total number of shares of preferred stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share, from 6,000,000 shares to 60,000,000 shares.
At-The-Market Offering
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company received approximately $ 21.8 million and $ 30.0 million, respectively, in net proceeds from the sale of 1,929,207 and 4,379,696 shares of its common stock pursuant to the sales agreement with Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (“Chardan”) in its “at-the-market” offering.

The Amendment, among other things, increases the aggregate offering price under the A&R Sales Agreement from $ 50 million to $ 100 million.

The Company agreed to grant a fully vested RSU award to a senior executive upon his hire date in June 2025, which was subject to stockholder approval of an increase in the shares available for issuance under the Company’s equity compensation plan. Accordingly, the service inception date of the award preceded the grant date. The full fair value of the award was expensed in June and accrued at that time, but it was not formally granted until August 2025, at which time the Company was required to adjust the fair value to the new current fair value. Because the fair value of the award was lower at the grant date than the service inception date, there was a reversal of compensation expense in the third quarter. This reversal resulted in a credit to stock-based compensation expense in the amount of $ 5,190,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Warrants
During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, the Company entered into an inducement offer (the “Inducement Offer”) with an investor (the “Investor”), by which the Company agreed to reduce the exercise price of existing warrants to purchase 197,118 shares of common stock (“the Existing Warrants”) from $ 55.20 per share to $ 5.272 per share. These warrants were immediately exercised for net proceeds to the Company of approximately $ 0.9 million. Cash issuance costs were $ 116,456 . The Inducement Offer also required the Company to issue to the Investor Series A Common Stock Purchase Warrants and Series B Common Stock Purchase Warrants (together the “Additional Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 394,236 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $ 5.272 per share, which may be exercised for five years from the initial exercise date. The Additional Warrants become exercisable upon stockholder approval.
Modification accounting was only performed on the warrants that were actually exercised pursuant to the Inducement Offer as it represented a short-term inducement. The Company recognized the $ 1,194,102 modification date incremental value of the modified Existing Warrants and Additional Warrants issued as compared to the original Existing Warrants, as an issuance cost of the warrant exercise.
