Note 1 – Business Organization, Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
Hyperion DeFi, Inc. (“Hyperion DeFi” or the “Company”) is the first U.S. publicly listed company building on Hyperliquid. Hyperion DeFi is working to provide its shareholders with simplified exposure to the Hyperliquid ecosystem.
HYPE is the native token of Hyperliquid, a decentralized Layer-1 (“L1”) 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.
Through April 2026, the Company was also conducting research and development activities related to its proprietary Optejet User Filled Device, designed to work with a variety of topical ophthalmic liquids, including artificial tears and lens rewetting products. As of June 30, 2026, substantially all operations related to Optejet have been wound down. In July 2026, the Company sold all its right, title, and interest to intellectual property associated with the Optejet and the Company’s pharmaceutical development program to Arctic Vision (Hong Kong) Limited in exchange for a $ 100,000 release of indebtedness. The disposed assets had been an aggregate carrying value of $ 0 as of June 30, 2026. The Company does not anticipate any material proceeds or future economic benefit from the Optejet or the small number of associated ophthalmic technology assets held by the Company as of June 30, 2026.
Beginning in July 2025, the Company used the proceeds from its capital raising activities to acquire and deploy HYPE in various income-generating activities, which includes native staking, liquid staking, and its proprietary HYPE Asset Use Service (“HAUS”) agreements.
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 June 30, 2026 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ending December 31, 2026, 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, 2025 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, 2025, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 30, 2026 (the “2025 Form 10-K”).
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. 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 borrowings, along with recent additional income sources recently generated from the Company’s digital assets business strategies. Under Accounting Standards Codification (“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 of June 30, 2026, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of approximately $ 9.6 million and working capital of $ 7.4 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company earned net income of approximately $ 39.8 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company used cash in operating activities of approximately $ 7.1 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 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.
On May 7, 2026, the Company closed a public offering of 2,777,778 shares of common stock and received approximately $ 8.9 million in net proceeds. On May 13, 2026, the Company sold an additional 132,249 shares of common stock, resulting in approximately $ 0.4 million in net proceeds to the Company. The Company plans to continue to pursue additional capital through its at-the-market common stock 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 cover operating expenses, 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.
While the Company plans to hold its digital assets as part of a long-term treasury strategy, and deploy its assets for productive purposes including staking and HAUS agreements, the Company’s management has the discretion and ability to sell its digital assets as needed to cover liquidity obligations. As of June 30, 2026, the Company owns $ 74.1 million of HYPE digital assets, of which nearly all are native staked and therefore would be subject to a seven-day unstaking queue before the Company could sell or transfer the assets. In addition, approximately $ 7.1 million of the Company’s HYPE digital assets are also deployed into HAUS agreements or the Joint Validator Operator’s Agreement (as defined below) with additional 90 -day contractual restrictions on transferability of the associated HYPE digital assets (See Note 9 - Commitments and Contingencies). The Company also has approximately $ 25.3 million of HYPE Liquid Staking Tokens (including Hyperion Institutional HYPE (“HiHYPE”), Kinetiq Staked HYPE (“kHYPE”) and Kinetiq Markets HYPE (“kmHYPE”) each referred to as a “HYPE LST”) which can be traded, sold, or redeemed for HYPE and sold (subject to liquidity and redemption queue conditions, as well as the same seven-day unstaking queue as native staked HYPE).
Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company disclosed its significant accounting policies in Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in the 2025 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2026, except as disclosed below.

Use of Estimates
Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the amounts disclosed in the related notes to the financial statements. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The amounts of assets and liabilities reported in the Company’s condensed balance sheets and the amounts of expenses reported for each of the periods presented are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, the determination of fair value on digital assets, impairment assessments of digital intangible assets, fair value calculations for equity securities and derivative instruments linked to digital assets, establishment of valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, revenue recognition, the valuation of derivative instruments, reserves for credit losses, the recovery of deferred costs and the deferral of revenues. Certain of the Company’s estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company as well as general economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that actual results could differ from those estimates.
See Note 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — Stock-Based Compensation in the 2025 Form 10 - K for additional discussion of the use of estimates in estimating the fair value of the Company’s common stock.
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. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had U.S. Treasury Bills with original maturity dates of three months or less classified within cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $ 4,084,598 .
The Company has cash deposits in financial institutions that, at times, may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. The Company has not experienced losses in such accounts and periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of its financial institutions.
Digital Assets
The Company’s digital assets and digital intangible assets primarily include HYPE (the Hyperliquid network’s native token), HYPE LSTs, KNTQ (the governance token of the Kinetiq liquid staking protocol), sKNTQ (a KNTQ liquid staking token, or “KNTQ LST”), HPL (the governance token of the HyperLend protocol), sHPL (a HPL liquid staking token, or “HPL LST”), and Hyperion Rysk Vault Shares (discussed below). HYPE, KNTQ, and HPL are accounted for in accordance with ASC 350-60, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (“ASC 350-60”) and are presented as digital assets in the condensed balance sheets. HYPE LSTs, KNTQ LSTs, and HPL LSTs are collectively referred to as the Company’s “LSTs”. The Company’s LSTs and Hyperion Rysk Vault Shares are classified as intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350-30, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill (“ASC 350-30”) and are presented as digital intangible assets in the condensed balance sheets. Since the Company’s LSTs and Hyperion Rysk Vault Shares represent a claim on their underlying tokens, they do not fall within the scope of ASC 350-60.
HYPE, KNTQ, and HPL digital assets are initially recorded at cost and then subsequently remeasured at fair value as of the balance sheet date (midnight UTC) with changes in fair value recognized as unrealized gains or losses in operating income (expense). Upon derecognition of digital assets into LSTs, the Company recognizes realized gains or losses in operating income (expense).

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
The Company’s LSTs and Hyperion Rysk Vault Shares are digital intangible assets with indefinite lives; they are not amortized but are subject to impairment. The Company’s LSTs and Hyperion Rysk Vault Shares are recorded at acquisition cost, reflecting the fair value of underlying digital assets deposited in the liquid staking pool or smart contract enabled vault, as the case may be, and tracked by lot. These assets are presented as digital intangible assets in the condensed 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 loss – digital intangible assets in operating income (expense)”.
Digital assets that are subject to contractual restrictions or are pledged as collateral and not available for general corporate purposes are classified as restricted digital assets and are presented separately on the accompanying condensed balance sheets. The Company uses the specific identification method to track the cost basis of all digital assets and digital intangible assets.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), applying the five-step model: identify the contract, identify performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to performance obligations, and recognize revenue when or as performance obligations are satisfied. Transaction prices include fixed and variable consideration, and estimates of variable consideration are included only to the extent that a significant reversal of revenue is not probable; the Company applies the as-invoiced practical expedient when applicable. The Company evaluates whether it is a principal or agent and reports revenue net when acting as an agent.
HYPE Native Staking
The Company operates a co-branded Hyperliquid validator, known as “Kinetiq × Hyperion” (“KxH”), with Kinetiq Research Pte. Ltd. (“Kinetiq”) and MAVAN Services Pty Ltd (“MAVAN”). MAVAN was formerly known as Pier Two Pty Ltd. The Company earns HYPE as rewards and commission income from native staking by validating transactions and maintaining network security. The Company participates in the native staking through both self-staking (using the Company’s own tokens) and providing validation services to third-party delegators. The Company delegates 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. Commission income from validation services is shared among the Company, Kinetiq and MAVAN. These rewards are received by the Company directly from the Hyperliquid network. 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, by following the five steps. 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. 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). HYPE rewards are variable consideration, resolved at the conclusion of each block. The HYPE earned is noncash consideration and therefore measured at fair value at the inception of each contract. Subsequent changes in fair value of HYPE earned are recognized within “Unrealized gain (loss) - digital assets” in the condensed statements of operations.
The Company participates in Hyperliquid blockchain validation activities through its arrangements with third-party validator operators, Kinetiq and MAVAN. While the Company obtained unilateral control over the private keys beginning on December 15, 2025, the ongoing operation, maintenance, and performance of validator infrastructure, and the process of validation are conducted by the Company’s third-party validator operators. Given the Company does not perform the primary validating activities, the Company’s

(UNAUDITED)
performance obligation is limited to delegating and arranging for validation services. Therefore, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company has determined it acts as an agent under ASC 606. Revenue is recognized on a net basis, representing the portion of blockchain rewards retained by the Company after amounts owed to third-party validator operators and third-party token delegators.
Temporary HAUS Agreements
The Company enters into arrangements with customers under which it provides the temporary use of its HYPE tokens in exchange for consideration. The Company’s obligation is to make the digital assets available for use over a defined period, which represents a single performance obligation that is satisfied over time as the counterparty simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of use. In arrangements where control of the digital assets transfers to the customer, the Company records a receivable representing its right to receive the digital assets at the end of the contractual term. Consideration is primarily based on transaction volume, trading activity, or other usage-based metrics generated during the contract term. The Company recognizes revenue in the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed, consistent with the application of the right-to-invoice practical expedient.
HyperLend Private Pool Participation Agreement and Revenue-Sharing Agreement
In the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company received 10 million HPL tokens from HyperLend Inc. (“HyperLend”), pursuant to two separate partnership agreements between the parties as detailed further below. As of June 30, 2026, all of the Company’s HPL tokens have been liquid staked in exchange for sHPL tokens, and the Company’s sHPL tokens are included within “Digital intangible assets” on the condensed balance sheets.
The Company first received 1 million HPL in connection with a Private Pool Participation Agreement (the “Private Pool Participation Agreement”) with HyperLend. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company anticipated becoming a borrower on the HyperLend platform in the future (denominated in USDH stablecoin), and HyperLend’s role in the agreement is a vendor. The Company accounted for these 1 million HPL tokens in accordance with ASC 705 – Cost of Sales and Service, given HyperLend’s role as a vendor. These 1 million HPL tokens represent vendor consideration and therefore the value recognition was deferred to reduce future obligations of the Company owed to HyperLend. As of June 30, 2026, following Native Markets’ announcement on May 14, 2026 that it would cease supporting the USDH stablecoin, the Company no longer anticipates becoming a borrower on the HyperLend platform in the future.
The Company subsequently received 9 million HPL tokens on March 31, 2026 in connection with a Revenue-Sharing Agreement (the “Revenue-Sharing Agreement”) with HyperLend. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company has a performance obligation to introduce borrowers to the HyperLend platform for the purposes of originating eligible loans, and HyperLend is the customer in the agreement. The Company accounts for these 9 million HPL as a non-cash, nonrefundable upfront referral fees by HyperLend in accordance with ASC 606. The fair value at contract inception of these 9 million tokens received is recognized ratably by the Company over the Revenue-Sharing Agreement’s one-year initial term. The Company also may earn additional referral fee revenue subsequent to June 30, 2026.
Liquid Staking Income
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. Revenue from native staking is accounted for in accordance with ASC 606.
The Company engages in liquid staking arrangements by staking HYPE in exchange for HYPE LSTs, primarily kHYPE and HiHYPE. kHYPE serves as the standard retail liquid staking receipt token for HYPE, while HiHYPE is an institutional variant of kHYPE. HiHYPE is issued through Kinetiq’s gated iHYPE pool specifically for the Company, offering the same economic exposure as kHYPE. Both HiHYPE and kHYPE feature a floating redemption rate determined by the value of the underlying staked HYPE and associated rewards, penalties, and fees. HiHYPE and kHYPE tokens are transferable, can be monetized, and may be utilized in other transactions, even while the original HYPE assets remain staked.
In November 2025, the Company received KNTQ digital assets through a network-initiated token distribution by Kinetiq. The Company does not native stake its KNTQ digital assets, but the Company began liquid staking its KNTQ in exchange for sKNTQ in March 2026. All of the Company’s KNTQ are liquid staked as of June 30, 2026.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
As described above, in March 2026, the Company received 10 million HPL tokens from HyperLend in connection with the Private Pool Participation Agreement and the Revenue-Sharing Agreement between HyperLend and the Company. As of June 30, 2026, all of the Company’s HPL tokens are deposited into liquid staking activities in exchange for sHPL LSTs.
When HYPE, KNTQ, or HPL are deposited into liquid staking pools, the Company recognizes any realized gains or losses on the HYPE, KNTQ, or HPL, as applicable, in accordance with ASC 610-20, Operating (Income) Expense — Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets, since the Company relinquishes control over the underlying digital assets deposited in the pool. No staking rewards accrued on liquid staking tokens are recognized by the Company until the liquid staking tokens are redeemed for the underlying digital asset.
Digital Assets Receivable, Digital Intangible Assets Receivable, and Credit Loss Allowance
The Company records digital assets receivable or digital intangible assets receivable when digital assets or digital intangible assets, respectively, are transferred or deposited into a wallet controlled by a third party and the Company determines that it has lost control of the assets in accordance with the definition of control in ASC 606 (i.e., the Company no longer has the ability to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the digital assets). In assessing whether control has transferred, the Company considers factors such as legal title, rights to transfer or pledge the assets, access to private keys, contractual restrictions, and the practical ability to direct the use of the digital assets. The Company evaluates the legal form and economic substance of each arrangement and documents the basis for its control conclusions. If the economic substance of an arrangement is more akin to a financing or lending arrangement, the Company accounts for the arrangement in a manner consistent with crypto asset lending arrangements rather than as a sale or transfer of digital assets.
Digital assets receivable and digital intangible assets receivable are initially and subsequently measured at the fair value of the underlying digital assets, with changes in fair value recognized in “Unrealized gains or losses — digital assets” and “Unrealized gains or losses — digital intangible assets receivable”, respectively, on the condensed statements of operations. For digital intangible assets receivable, the fair value is based upon the underlying HYPE digital assets, without accounting for accrued and unrealized staking rewards (which can only be realized upon future potential redemption of the LSTs back into HYPE). The recognition of accrued and unrealized staking rewards is constrained by uncertainty on the ultimate settlement of the Company’s liquid staking tokens back to native tokens.
The Company records an allowance for credit losses on digital assets receivable and digital intangible assets receivable arising from arrangements in which control of the digital assets transfers to a third party, as described in Note 6 – Digital Assets. The allowance for credit losses is measured in accordance with the current expected credit loss model under ASC 326, Current Expected Credit Losses (“ASC 326”). In estimating expected credit losses, the Company considers counterparty-specific information, contractual terms, conditions in the digital asset market, conditions in the broader financial services market (including observed industry delinquency trends), corporate default rate forecasts published by third-party industry participants, and other relevant transaction-specific factors. Due to limited historical loss experience for digital assets receivable, the Company utilizes external data and applies a probability of default and loss given default methodology.
OTC HYPE Options
The Company operates an over-the-counter (“OTC”) options strategy on the price of HYPE to mitigate risk and enhance yield on its digital asset treasury. In the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company sold out of the money covered call option agreements on the price of HYPE, which call options were sold against and collateralized by HYPE owned by the Company (including HYPE LSTs), as well as out of the money put option agreements on the price of HYPE collateralized by the Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and USDH.
Premiums received at inception are initially recorded on the condensed balance sheets, and subsequently reflected in earnings consistent with the subsequent fair value changes of the related options. The fair value of these written options is measured using standard option-pricing models incorporating observable market inputs, including HYPE spot prices, implied volatility, and time to expiration. As such, the options are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy (see “Fair Value Measurements” below). Changes in the fair value of the options are recognized on the condensed statements of operations within “Operating (income) expense, net”. Outstanding derivative liabilities are presented on the condensed balance sheets within “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities”.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
In connection with the Company’s OTC HYPE covered call options strategy, the Company pledges or transfers HYPE or HYPE LSTs to institutional counterparties to collateralize the underlying transactions. In the six months ended June 30, 2026, these transactions were governed by long-form confirmations and International Swaps and Derivatives Association agreements (together, “Derivative Agreements”). Under the Derivative Agreements, the Company’s HYPE or HYPE LSTs are pledged as collateral and can be rehypothecated, re-pledged, or otherwise deployed by the derivative counterparties. As the Company has determined that it has lost control of these assets, the HYPE or HYPE LST collateral is presented as digital assets receivable or digital intangible asset receivable on the condensed balance sheets.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company has no outstanding OTC HYPE options.
Hyperion Rysk Vault Shares
In March 2026, the Company launched in partnership with the Rysk protocol an Institutional Volatility Income Vault (“IVIV”). The purpose of this vault is to facilitate the execution of HYPE options (puts and calls) via smart-contracts on-chain, and the Company began executing on-chain put sales on the price of HYPE in March 2026. In order to collateralize these HYPE options, the Company first creates a standalone collateralization liquidity pool of the Company’s assets. Until May 2026, the Company’s liquidity pool was denominated in USDH; following Native Markets’ announcement on May 14, 2026 that it would cease supporting the USDH stablecoin, beginning in June 2026, the Company’s liquidity pool is denominated in USDC. When the Company’s USDC is deposited into the IVIV, the Company relinquishes control of its USDC and receives in return Hyperion Rysk Vault Shares, which represent a claim on the IVIV assets in a matter akin to liquid staking tokens. Any increase in the amount of underlying USDC within the IVIV is not recognized as income until the Hyperion Rysk Vault Shares are redeemed for USDC, akin to accrued staking rewards on liquid staking tokens.
Fair Value Measurement
The Company determines fair value measurements for digital assets, digital assets receivable, digital intangible assets receivable, and outstanding HYPE option liabilities 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 that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 - Inputs that are unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The Company’s digital assets, digital assets receivable and digital intangible assets receivable are subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis.
HYPE digital assets are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using quoted prices in its principal market (Level 1 inputs). The Company routinely evaluates which market qualifies as its principal market by considering factors such as accessibility, trading volume, and transaction activity. Ultimately, the principal market is determined as the one accessible to the Company with the highest volume and orderly transactions for HYPE. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had KNTQ digital assets which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using market-corroborated inputs (Level 2 inputs) including the observed transactions on decentralized exchanges within the Hyperliquid and HyperEVM ecosystems.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, such as cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable approximate fair values due to the short-term nature or effective interest rates of these instruments.
The fair value of the Company’s digital intangible assets is estimated based on the original digital asset token deposited minus transaction costs. Impairment losses for the Company’s digital intangible assets are recognized when fair value falls below carrying value.
Assets Held For Sale
In connection with the wind-down of its Ophthalmic Technology segment (the “Biotech Operations”), including the Optejet User Filled Device platform, the Company committed to a plan to sell the related assets (the “Biotech Assets”). Management substantially completed the wind-down of Biotech Operations as of May 31, 2026. Management has concluded that the Biotech Assets meet the criteria in ASC 360-10-45-9 to be classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2026, as (i) management committed to a plan to sell the Biotech Assets, (ii) the Biotech Assets were available for immediate sale in their present condition, (iii) an active program to locate a buyer had been initiated, (iv) the sale was probable and expected to be completed within one year, (v) the Biotech Assets were being actively marketed at a reasonable price, and (vi) it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan would be made.
Assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell and are no longer depreciated or amortized once so classified. The Company wrote off $ 57,773 related to its right-of-use asset associated with the Biotech Operations lease during the three months ended June 30, 2026 as a result of the wind-down. No other Biotech Assets were written down during the six months ended June 30, 2026. Accordingly, the carrying value of the Biotech Assets was zero as of June 30, 2026.
On July 30, 2026, the Company completed the sale of substantially all intellectual property associated with its legacy ophthalmic drug delivery (Optejet) program to Arctic Vision (Hong Kong) Limited pursuant to an Intellectual Property Purchase, Sale and Assignment Agreement. The assigned assets consisted of the Company’s Optejet-related patents and patent applications, trademarks, and associated know-how, technical, clinical and regulatory documentation.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of items that have been included or excluded in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their respective financial reporting amounts, or temporary differences, at enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which such temporary differences are expected to reverse.
The Company utilizes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
The Company’s policy is to classify assessments, if any, for tax-related interest as interest expense and penalties as selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed statements of operations.
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, with many effective in 2026. While further evaluation is ongoing, the OBBBA is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In November 2024, The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Updated (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220 – 04). This update requires an entity to disclose more detailed information regarding expenses for the entity. The amendments require that at each interim and the annual reporting period, the entity must disclose amounts related to purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization and depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil and gas- producing activities. Including the amounts, the entity is required to disclose and qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions, and to disclose the total amount of selling expenses and the definition of selling expenses. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively to financial statements issued for the current period presented, and retrospectively to any prior periods presented in the financials. Although early adoption is permitted, the new guidance becomes effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Since this new ASU addresses only disclosures, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have any material effects on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270) - Narrow-Scope Improvements (“ASU 2025-11”) to improve the guidance in Topic 270, Interim Reporting, by improving the navigability of the required interim disclosures and clarifying when that guidance is applicable. ASU 2025-11 is effective for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-11 on its condensed financial statements.
In April 2026, the FASB issued ASU 2026-01, Equity (Topic 505): Initial Measurement of Paid-in-Kind Dividends on Equity-Classified Preferred Stock (“ASU 2026-01”). The amendments in this update require entities to initially measure paid-in-kind (“PIK”) dividends on equity-classified preferred stock using the PIK dividend rate stated in the preferred stock agreement, rather than at fair value. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2026-01 on its condensed financial statements and related disclosures.
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 Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock, $ 0.0001 par value per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) (see Note 11 - Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) – Series A Preferred Stock 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) attributable to common stockholders 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) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued (computed using the more dilutive of the treasury stock or if converted method, as applicable, and the two-class method). There were no dilutive securities outstanding during the three or six months ended June 30, 2025, because of the net loss for the periods.

After the one year staking requirement, sale restrictions on the HPL tokens received shall release linearly over a subsequent 12-month vesting period, with 1/12 becoming freely transferable on the first day of each calendar month. If the Company does not abide by the staking and vesting requirements, the Company contractually must repay to HyperLend the unvested portion of the HPL tokens in-kind or in USDC equivalent, plus a penalty of 25 %.
Joint Validator Operator’s Agreement
On October 27, 2025, the Company entered into a Joint Validator Operator’s Agreement (the “Joint Validator Agreement”) with Kinetiq and MAVAN, effective retroactively to June 25, 2025. The Joint Validator Agreement formalizes the parties’ collaboration in jointly operating a co-branded KxH validator node on the Hyperliquid L1 blockchain.
Under the Joint Validator Agreement, Hyperion initiated the validator with 10,000 HYPE and agreed to provide staking capital from its treasury of HYPE tokens, so that the validator enters Hyperliquid’s active set of validators and it is eligible to produce and attest blocks in the Hyperliquid consensus protocol. Hyperion is contractually required to keep 10,000 HYPE tokens at the validator, and these tokens are presented as “Digital assets” on the condensed balance sheets and “HYPE digital assets” within Note 6 – Digital Assets, with a fair value of $ 0.6 million as of June 30, 2026. Kinetiq will contribute validator operations support, smart contract infrastructure, and stake-routing tooling via its liquid staking protocols, and MAVAN will host and manage the validator infrastructure, including uptime, monitoring and security, and is responsible for maintaining ISO/IEC 27001 and System and Organization Controls 2 compliance.
The Joint Validator Agreement outlines shared responsibilities for validator operations, governance, incident response, and performance monitoring. It includes a revenue-sharing arrangement whereby staking commissions and other validator-level rewards are allocated among Hyperion, Kinetiq and MAVAN, with specific overrides for referred delegations.
The Joint Validator Agreement is effective for an initial term of one year and will automatically renew annually unless terminated by any party with 90 days ’ notice.

Note 10 – Income Tax
The Company accounts for income taxes in interim periods using the estimated annual effective tax rate method. Under this method, the Company estimates its annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year and applies that rate to year-to-date pre-tax income or loss, and records discrete tax items in the period in which they occur. The Company’s effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was 0.0 % in each period, compared with the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0 %, primarily due to the full valuation allowance recorded against the Company’s deferred tax assets.
The Company continues to assess the realizability of its deferred tax assets at each reporting date. Based on the weight of available evidence, management concluded that it is not more likely than not that the Company’s net deferred tax assets will be realized and, accordingly, the Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance as of June 30, 2026.
During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company determined that certain pre-change net operating loss carryforwards are no longer available due to the continuity of business enterprise requirement under Section 382(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. As a result, the Company reduced the related gross deferred tax assets during the six months ended June30, 2026. Because the Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets, this adjustment had no impact on income tax expense for the three or six months ended June 30, 2026 .
Changes in tax laws, rulings, regulations, and interpretations may materially affect the Company’s effective tax rate in future periods.
Note 11 – Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit)

Treasury Stock
On December 29, 2025, 82,324 shares were withheld from a delivery of RSUs to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to cover the Company’s tax obligations, reflected as treasury stock as of December 31, 2025. The Company records repurchases of its own common stock at cost. Repurchased common stock is presented as a reduction of equity in the condensed balance sheets. Gains resulting from differences between the cost of treasury stock and the re-issuance proceeds would be credited to additional paid-in capital. Losses resulting from differences between the cost of treasury stock and the re-issuance proceeds would be debited to additional paid-in capital.
On March 20, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors, pursuant to Section 243 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, approved a resolution whereby shares of the Company’s common stock that are withheld in the future upon vesting of the RSUs or exercise of options to satisfy tax withholding obligations or the exercise price of options, as the case may be, will automatically be retired and such shares will (1) resume the status of authorized but unissued shares of common stock and (2) again become available for issuance pursuant to inducement grants or the 2018 Omnibus Plan, as the case may be. As a result of the retirement, the Company derecognized the treasury shares to additional paid in capital during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
There was no treasury stock activity in the three months ended June 30, 2026.
Note 12 - Segment Reporting
The Company had historically operated and managed its business through two operating and reportable segments: Ophthalmic Technology and Digital Assets. All operations of the Ophthalmic Technology segment were wound down as of May 31, 2026. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The CODM has regularly reviewed discrete financial information for each segment, including segment revenues, cost of revenues, significant segment expenses, and segment (income) loss, to make decisions about resources to be allocated to each segment and to assess each segment’s performance, as well as to make strategic operational decisions and manage the organization. The measure of segment profit or loss used by the CODM is segment (income) loss, as presented in the tables below. Selling, general and administrative expenses and other income (expense), net, were not allocated to the segments and are presented as reconciling items between total segment (income) loss and total net income (loss). The measure of segment assets used by the CODM was total assets, disaggregated by segment as presented in the tables below. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
The prior Ophthalmic Technology reportable segment no longer meets the quantitative criteria to be presented as a reportable segment under ASC 280-10, and accordingly, its operating results through the period of its wind-down (completed by May 31, 2026) have been included in the Corporate/Other column for the 2026 periods. The 2025 periods were not required to be recast, and were therefore not recast, since the wind-down of the Ophthalmic Technology segment did not meet the criteria to be presented as a discontinued operation.

The Facility provides for a principal amount of up to $ 1.0 million, denominated in USDC. The Facility has a term of one month and bears a fixed interest rate of 8.0 % per annum payable to the Company. Accrued interest and principal is due at maturity, subject to earlier repayment provisions. The Borrower’s obligations are collateralized by digital assets consisting of natively staked HYPE tokens, which are subject to a security interest and related control rights in favor of HyperLend, acting for itself and for the benefit of the Company. The collateral arrangements are governed by the Facility and an Account Control Agreement among Anchorage Digital Bank N.A. (as the custodian), the Borrower (as pledgor) and HyperLend (as secured party for itself and for the benefit of the Company). The terms of the loan arrangement include customary margin maintenance, liquidation, and collateral monitoring provisions, including specified loan-to-value thresholds and liquidation triggers.
