SHARPLINK
GAMING, INC.
NOTES
TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
three
and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024
Note
1 – Organization
Background
and Nature of Business
Headquartered
in Minneapolis, SharpLink Gaming, Inc. (the “Company” of “Sharplink”), a Delaware corporation, undertook a significant
strategic shift in June 2025 by adopting Ether (“ETH”), the native cryptocurrency of the Ethereum blockchain, as its primary
treasury asset. This strategy reflects the Company’s commitment to align the corporate treasury with the future of programmable
finance, digital capital markets and decentralized infrastructure. The Company uses proceeds from financings to accumulate ETH, which
is then deployed in staking to generate rewards. Staking rewards earned from staking are also staked to generate additional rewards.
See Note 3 – Digital Asset Holdings . The Company also operates an online affiliate marketing company that delivers unique
fan activation solutions to its sportsbook and online casino gaming partners. The Company’s ETH Treasury Management strategy is
now its predominant operational focus.
Since
the launch of its ETH Treasury Management strategy, the Company has raised capital through private investment in public equity (“PIPE”)
transactions, follow-on offerings, and at-the-market (“ATM”) sales. The Company has deployed the majority of the proceeds
to acquire ETH. Additional details regarding these equity offerings are included in Note 9 – Equity .
Tokenization
of Stock
On
September 24, 2025, the Company entered into a digital transfer agent agreement with Superstate Services LLC with the intent to tokenize
the Company’s common stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) on the Ethereum blockchain. As of the
date of this filing, the Company has not tokenized any of its common stock.
Reverse
Stock Split
On
May 5, 2025, the Company effected a one-for-twelve (1:12) reverse stock split of all the Company’s Common Stock, whereby the Company
decreased the number of issued and outstanding Common Stock from 7,916,206 to 659,684 . Proportional adjustments for the reverse stock
split were made to the Company’s outstanding stock options, warrants and equity incentive plans. All share and per-share data and
amounts have been retrospectively adjusted as of the earliest period presented in the financial statements to reflect the reverse stock
split.
Acquisition
of 10% Equity Stake in Armchair Enterprises
On
February 24, 2025, SharpLink entered into a subscription agreement (“Subscription Agreement”) with U.K-based Armchair Enterprises
Limited (“Armchair”), which owns and operates CryptoCasino.com. The acquisition of a 10 % equity stake in Armchair was made
for $ 500,000 in cash, along with a right of first refusal to acquire a controlling interest in Armchair. The investment was recorded
at cost and will be measured at cost less impairment, adjusted for any observable price changes. There was no impairment as of September
30, 2025.
Domestication
On
February 13, 2024, SharpLink Gaming Ltd. (“SharpLink Israel” and former parent company) completed its previously announced
domestication merger (“Domestication Merger”), pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in an Agreement and Plan of
Merger (the “Domestication Merger Agreement”), dated June 14, 2023 and amended July 24, 2023, among SharpLink Gaming, Inc.
(“SharpLink US”), SharpLink Israel, SharpLink Merger Sub Ltd., an Israeli company and a wholly owned subsidiary of subsidiary
of SharpLink US (Domestication Merger Sub) . The Domestication Merger was achieved through a merger of Domestication Merger Sub Ltd.
with and into SharpLink Israel, with SharpLink Israel surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of SharpLink US. The
Domestication Merger was approved by the shareholders of SharpLink Israel at an extraordinary special meeting of shareholders held on
December 6, 2023. The Common Stock of SharpLink commenced trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the same ticker symbol, SBET, on
February 14, 2024.
As
a result of the Domestication Merger, all SharpLink Israel ordinary shares outstanding immediately prior to the Domestication Merger
automatically converted, on a one-for-one basis, into the right to receive, and become exchangeable for, shares of SharpLink US Common
Stock and all preferred shares, options and warrants of SharpLink Israel outstanding immediately prior to the Domestication Merger converted
into or exchanged for equivalent securities of SharpLink US on a one-for-one basis.

Note
2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a)
Basis of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by SharpLink Gaming, Inc., pursuant to the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of the Company, the foregoing statements
contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company
as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, as well as its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2025 and 2024. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial
statements as of that date. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results in future periods may differ from the estimates.
Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or
omitted from this report, as is permitted by rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements
do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for a complete financial statement presentation. These condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended
December 31, 2024, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 14, 2025 and Form
10-K/A filed with the SEC on March 17, 2025. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s accounting policies since
December 31, 2024, except as discussed below in Note 3(d) - Crypto Assets and 3(e) Staking activities , related to the Company’s
ETH Treasury Management Strategy.
During
the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company revised its presentation of the condensed consolidated statements of operations
to align with its current view of operations. Specifically, other operating income now reflects to Company’s ETH Treasury Management
results, including realized gains and losses on crypto assets at fair value and unrealized gains and losses on changes in the fair value
of crypto assets held. In addition, cost of revenue from affiliate marketing has been reclassified into operating expenses.

Table of Contents
(b)
Principles of Consolidation
The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SharpLink and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany
accounts and transactions between consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation.
(c)
Functional Currency
The
Company’s functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange
rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. The resulting monetary assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange
rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Revenue and expense components are translated to U.S. dollars at weighted-average exchange
rates in effect during the period. Foreign currency translation adjustments, which arise from the remeasurement of foreign-denominated
monetary assets and liabilities, are typically recorded in Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”) in accordance with U.S. GAAP,
however, the Company does not have material operations in a foreign currency which require translation into U.S dollars. Foreign currency
transaction gains and losses resulting from remeasurement are recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses within the condensed
consolidated statements of operations.
(d)
Crypto Assets
The
Company’s crypto assets primarily consist of ETH, the native token of the Ethereum blockchain, and Liquid Staked Ether (“LsETH”),
a token received when ETH is staked through a third-party liquid staking protocol. ETH and LsETH are presented separately on the Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet under the captions “Crypto assets at fair value” and “Crypto assets at cost” respectively.
The Company has ownership of and control over its crypto assets which are held through custodial arrangements with qualified third-party
custodians. These custodians provide secure storage and safeguarding of the Company’s crypto assets, including both ETH and LsETH.
Crypto
assets at fair value
Crypto
assets acquired are initially recorded at cost, which represents the cash, cash equivalents, or other financial assets paid to acquire
the asset, including transaction fees. Crypto assets received in exchange for goods or services, or in connection with the issuance of
shares, are recognized at their fair value on the date received, which becomes their cost basis.
Crypto
assets are subsequently measured in accordance with ASC 350-60, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Accounting for and Disclosure
of Crypto Assets , at fair value in the statement of financial position with unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in
fair value recognized in net income. The Company determines and records at each reporting period the fair value of its crypto assets
in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement , based on quoted (unadjusted) prices on the Coinbase exchange, the active exchange
that the Company has determined is its principal market for ETH (Level 1 inputs). Changes in the fair value are recognized in net income
within “Unrealized gain on crypto assets”, while realized gains and losses from the derecognition of crypto assets are included
in “Realized gain on crypto assets, net” in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company
applies a first-in, first-out methodology to assign costs for purposes of determining crypto assets held and realized gains and losses.
Purchases
and sales of crypto assets are reflected as cash flows from investing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Contributions
of crypto assets received in connection with the issuance of shares and deposits of ETH into a liquid staking protocol are presented
as non-cash investing and financing activities.
Crypto
assets at cost
Crypto
assets at cost are recognized at fair value on the date received, which becomes their cost basis. Crypto assets at cost, such as LsETH,
do not fall in the scope of ASC 350-60 for subsequent measurement. LsETH represents a receipt token, which in general and by design,
grants the holder an enforceable right to redeem ETH for which it was exchanged. Therefore, it fails the ‘other goods and services
criterion’ in ASC 350-60-15-1(b) and is outside the scope of ASC 350-60. Crypto assets at cost are therefore subsequently measured
at cost, net of any impairment losses incurred since acquisition, in accordance with ASC 350-30, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—General
Intangibles Other Than Goodwill .

Table of Contents
The
Company performs an analysis each quarter to identify whether events or changes in circumstances, principally decreases in the quoted
(unadjusted) prices in the Company’s principal market, indicates that it is more likely than not that any of the assets are impaired.
The quoted (unadjusted) prices on the Coinbase exchange, the active exchange that the Company has determined as its principal market,
are used in the analysis. In determining if an impairment has occurred, the Company considers the lowest price of one LsETH quoted on
the Coinbase exchange, at any time since acquiring the specific LsETH held by the Company. If the carrying value of a LsETH exceeds that
lowest intraday price, an impairment loss has occurred with respect to that LsETH in the amount equal to the difference between its carrying
value and such lowest price. Impairment losses are recognized in the period in which the impairment occurs and are reflected within “Impairment
of crypto assets at cost” in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The impaired crypto assets are
written down to their fair value at the time of impairment and this becomes the new cost basis for those assets. The cost basis of LsETH
will not be adjusted upward for any subsequent increase in fair value.
LsETH
received in connection with staking of ETH into a liquid staking protocol are presented as non-cash investing activities.
(e)
Staking activities
Beginning
in June 2025, the Company began staking its ETH. To date, this has included both native staking and liquid staking. The Company initiated
both native staking and liquid staking in June 2025, and intends for staking to become a primary yield generation strategy of the Company
during the current fiscal year.
Native
Staking
The
Company participates in native staking exclusively as a delegator through third-party validators. The Company delegates ETH to validators,
either directly or through third party asset managers, who operate nodes on the Ethereum network to validate transactions and add blocks
to the blockchain. In return for delegating ETH to validators, the Company is entitled to a portion of the block rewards and transaction
fees earned by the validators, in the form of ETH tokens, calculated approximately based on the Company’s proportion of the total
ETH staked. When the Company stakes ETH natively, the ETH does not remain in the Company’s custodial wallet, but is instead deposited
into Ethereum’s staking deposit smart contract, which is required for participation in ETH staking as a delegator. Native staked
ETH are not derecognized because their deposit into the smart contract does not give any other entity the right or ability to direct
their use (for example, sell, lend, pledge or otherwise use those ETH). The withdrawal credentials in the smart contract are designated
to the Company’s custodian, who, as described in Note 2(d), holds the Company’s ETH solely for the Company’s benefit
and does not obtain control of the Company’s ETH via their custodial services. Native staked ETH are therefore not derecognized.
Rewards from native staking activities are recognized as revenue in accordance
with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . The delegation of the Company's ETH to validators represents an output
of the Company’s ordinary activities. In this case our performance obligation is the provision of our validation rights to
the validators, from which we earn variable consideration, in the form of ETH, which is non-cash consideration, measured at the fair
value of ETH as of contract inception based on the quoted (unadjusted) prices on the Coinbase exchange, the active exchange that the Company
has determined is its principal market. Revenue is recognized at the point in time when the Ethereum network confirms that the validation
is complete. As a delegator, the Company has concluded it is not the principal to the block validation service provided to the Ethereum
Network; it is the validators that control the service. Instead, the Company's service is one of providing the use of its ETH by the validators
to increase their validation opportunities. Consequently, the Company records staking revenue on a net basis, reflecting only the portion
of protocol rewards to which it is entitled after validator commissions are deducted. Fees paid to third-party asset managers of approximately
$3.5M and custodians of approximately $657,000 are recognized separately as operating expenses.
10
Table of Contents
Liquid
Staking
The
Company also participates in liquid staking through a liquid staking protocol. One key difference and intended benefit of liquid staking
versus native staking is that it allows the Company to earn staking rewards, like native staking, but provides liquidity and the ability
to enter into other transactions through the receipt token. Instead of directly locking ETH into the Ethereum staking deposit contract,
the Company deposits ETH through its custodian into the liquid staking protocol’s smart contract. The liquid staking protocol then
controls the ETH for deposit into the Ethereum’s staking deposit contract and further delegation to its chosen validators. In exchange
for staking its ETH, the Company receives LsETH, a freely transferable ERC-20 liquid staking receipt token, which enables participation
in decentralized finance (DeFi) and other crypto markets while the underlying ETH remains staked. Upon staking ETH through the liquid
staking protocol, the ETH is derecognized because the liquid staking protocol obtains the ability to deploy and direct its use, and the
LsETH token received concurrently is then recognized. Any gain or loss on the staking transaction is recognized in accordance with ASC
610-20, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (“ASC 610-20”) based on the
difference between the carrying amount of the ETH staked and the fair value of the LsETH received; and included in “Realized gain
on crypto assets, net” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The
liquid staking protocol uses a floating conversion rate, or protocol conversion rate, between the receipt token and staked tokens,
reflecting the value of accrued network rewards, penalties, and fees associated with the staked ETH. The conversion rate between
LsETH and ETH increases over time as staking rewards accrue to the protocol; no new LsETH are received. Staking rewards in the form
of ETH are only received upon redemption of LsETH.
Because
LsETH is accounted for under ASC 350-30 (see Note 2(d)), increases in LsETH fair value while the Company remains staked with the liquid
staking protocols, are not recognized. Staking rewards are therefore recognized when the LsETH is redeemed, measured at the fair value
of ETH at contract inception, which is when the ETH were staked. Staking rewards will be included in other revenues in the Company’s
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Gain or loss resulting from the difference between the carrying amount of the LsETH
redeemed and the fair value of ETH received at redemption, other than staking rewards, will be included in operating income (expense)
in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. No LsETH was redeemed or sold in the three and nine-month periods
ended September 30, 2025.
(f)
USDC stablecoin
USD stablecoin (“USDC”) is accounted for as a financial asset that
can be redeemed on the basis of one USDC for one U.S. dollar on demand from the issuer. While not accounted for as cash or cash equivalents,
the Company treats its USDC holdings as a liquidity resource. The USDC received rewards from Coinbase on USDC held with Coinbase, for
which approximately $ 138,000 was recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2025, and netted
against custodial fees in operating expenses in accordance with ASC 705-20 Accounting for Considerations Received from a Vendor .
The Company's USDC are held with qualified third-party custodians who provide secure storage and safeguarding of the Company's USDC.
The Company's custodians do not obtain control over the Company's USDC; therefore we continue to recognize USDC as our own for accounting
purposes.
(g)
Affiliate Marketing Revenue Recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606. To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers, the Company
performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract with the customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the
contract; (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant
future reversal will not occur; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract; and
(v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation. The Company recognizes revenue when it transfers
its goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in such
exchange. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company has recognized its revenue at a point in time for certain
contracts and over time for other contracts. The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers,
and these timing differences result in contract advanced billings on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. The
Company recognized unbilled revenue when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type,
although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 days. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs
from the timing of invoicing, the Company has determined that its contracts generally do not include a significant financing component.
The primary purpose of invoicing terms is to provide customers with simplified and predictable ways of purchasing the Company’s
services, and not to facilitate financing arrangements. The Company acts as an agent and records revenue net of commissions retained.

Affiliate
Marketing
The
Company recognizes revenue when it transfers its goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to
which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange.
For
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company has recognized its revenue at a point in time.
The
timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers, and these timing differences result in contract advanced
billings on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company recognized unbilled revenue when revenue is recognized
prior to invoicing.
Payment
terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 days. In instances where
the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, the Company has determined that its contracts generally do not
include a significant financing component. The primary purpose of invoicing terms is to provide customers with simplified and predictable
ways of purchasing the Company’s services, and not to facilitate financing arrangements.
The
Company’s assets and liabilities related to its contracts with customers were as follows:

The
Company recognized $ 16.3 million of stock-based compensation expense for 3,455,019 warrants to purchase the Company’s Common Stock
(“Strategic Advisor Warrants”) issued to Consensys Software Inc. (“Consensys”) in conjunction with the Strategic
Advisory Agreement ( Refer to Note 14 – Related Parties) . The Strategic Advisor Warrants have various exercise prices
as follows: (i) 1,382,007 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $6.15 per share of common stock; (ii) 691,004 shares of common
stock at an exercise price of $6.765 per share of common stock; (iii) 691,004 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $7.38 per
share of common stock; and (iv) 691,004 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $7.995 per share of common stock. See Note
14 — Related Party Transactions .
The
Company recognized $ 12.9
million of stock-based compensation expense recognized as contra-equity for the 2,764,013 placement agent warrants to purchase
shares of common stock issued to the Agent in conjunction with the May 2025 PIPE Offering (as defined below). The warrants have an exercise price of
$ 7.68
per share of common stock.
The
strategic advisor and placement agent warrants are accounted for under ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. Both the
Strategic Advisor Warrants and the placement agent warrants are fully vested, nonforfeitable and not subject to any clawback
provisions on the grant date. Accordingly, the grant date fair value of the Strategic Advisor Warrants is recognized in full as
compensation in the income statement upfront. The grant date fair value of the placement agent warrants is recorded as contra-equity
as the warrants represent non-cash consideration for costs of placement agent services, which are directly attributable costs to
raise capital in the May 2025 PIPE Offering.
The
fair value of each warrant grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

Agreement. The warrants have an exercise price of $ 0.0001 per share of common stock and were exercised in full during the period ended
June 30, 2025.

Table of Contents
The
pre-funded warrants met the criteria for classification within stockholders’ equity as permanent equity, with no subsequent remeasurement
required. The fair value of each warrant awarded for compensation is estimated on the date of grant using a Black Scholes option-pricing
model. The Company uses historical option exercise and termination data to estimate the term the options are expected to be outstanding.
The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The expected dividend yield is calculated
using historical dividend amounts and the stock price at the option issue date. The expected volatility is determined using the volatility
of peer companies.
Letter
Agreements
Between
July 8, 2025 and July 10, 2025, the Company entered into letter agreements (“Letter Agreements”) with the holders of the
Company’s Common Stock, pre-funded warrants, Strategic Advisor Warrants and placement agent warrants, which were issued in connection
with the Company’s private placement pursuant to the two securities purchase agreements, dated May 20, 2025 and May 26, 2025.
Pursuant
to the Letter Agreements, the Company may reserve for issuance under the ATM sales agreement between the Company and A.G.P./Alliance
Global Partners (“A.G.P.”) any of the authorized shares of common stock that would otherwise be reserved for issuance under
the Strategic Advisor Warrants (as defined in Note 14 – Related Parties) , placement agent warrants, private placement
pre-funded warrants and best efforts pre-funded warrants, with the understanding that (i) the Company may issue such shares pursuant
to the ATM facility at any time after the execution of the Letter Agreements and before the date on which the Company receives the requisite
stockholder approval (the “Stockholder Approval”) to increase the Company’s authorized shares, and (ii) following the
receipt of the Stockholder Approval with respect to the authorized share increase, the Company shall reserve the shares underlying the
various warrants. Following receipt of Stockholder Approval on July 24, 2025 at the Special Meeting of Stockholders, the authorized share
capital was increased and the Letter Agreements were terminated.
The
termination of these Letter Agreements had no impact on the Company’s accounting or financial statement presentation, as no new
rights or obligations were created or extinguished upon termination.

Plan (the “Inducement Award Plan”). The Board reserved 3,000,000
shares of the Company’s Common Stock for issuance under the Inducement Award Plan, including restricted stock units
(time-based and performance-based), subject to adjustment as provided in the plan document.

may be issued only to an employee who is commencing employment with the Company or any subsidiary or who is being rehired following a
bona fide interruption of employment by the Company or any subsidiary, in either case if he or she is granted such award in connection
with his or her commencement of employment and such grant is an inducement material to his or her entering into employment with the Company
or such subsidiary.
In
August, the Company granted 443,385 restricted stock units to the newly appointed Co-CEO with 147,795 performance based awards and 295,590
service based awards, under the Inducement Award Plan (see Restricted Stock Units - Performance Based below).

Restricted
Stock Units - Performance Based
The
Company’s Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors and the Board approved the design of performance based restricted
stock units (“Performance RSU”) for certain executive officers. The awards are intended to vest based on the achievement
of specified financial and operational performance metrics over a three-year performance period, subject to continued service through
the end of the performance period. The Company recognizes the stock-based compensation expense in connection with the Performance RSUs
when they are granted or at the service inception date if the service inception date precedes the grant date. As of September 30, 2025,
a grant date had not yet been established for 115,069
Performance RSUs because certain performance conditions and
award parameters remained subject to the final determination by the Compensation Committee. The Company remeasures the fair value of
the award at each reporting date, as the service date preceded the grant date. In the period in which the grant date occurs, cumulative
compensation cost will be adjusted to reflect the cumulative effect of measuring compensation cost based on the fair value at the grant
date rather than the fair value previously used at the service inception date or subsequent reporting dates. For the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized $ 64,447
in stock compensation expense. Unamortized stock compensation
expense of $ 2,144,370
will be recognized through 2028 for 115,069
unvested options.
There
were no Performance RSU’s issued during 2024.

At-The-Market
( “ ATM ” ) Offerings
On
May 2, 2024, Company entered into an ATM Sales Agreement (the “May 2024 ATM Sales Agreement”) with A.G.P./Alliance
Global Partners (“A.G.P.”) pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time, through A.G.P., as sales
agent and/or principal, shares of the Company’s Common Stock, having an aggregate offering price of up to $ 1.7
million, subject to certain limitations on the amount of Common Stock that may be offered and sold by the Company set forth in the
May 2024 ATM Sales Agreement (the “Offering”). On February 4, 2025, the Company, under the terms of the ATM Sales
Agreement, filed a prospectus supplement that amended the number shares of Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to
$ 1.8
million.
On
May 30, 2025, SharpLink entered into a second ATM Sales Agreement (the “May 2025 ATM Sales Agreement”) with A.G.P.
relating to the sale of shares of the Company’s Common Stock from time to time, having an aggregate offering price of up to
$ 1.0
billion.
On
July 17, 2025, SharpLink entered into an amendment to the May 2025 ATM Sales Agreement (the “Amendment”) with A.G.P to increase
the number of shares that may be sold from time to time in connection with the ATM facility from $ 1.0
billion to $ 6.0
billion; and to permit the forward sale of shares to be sold
in the ATM offering to master forward confirmation letter agreements. On July 17, 2025, the Company filed a supplement to the prospectus
supplement with the SEC to address the Amendment and the forward sales agreements .
On
July 17, 2025, the Company entered into a forward sales agreement to permit the forward sale of shares of the Company’s Common
Stock to A.G.P. The forward sales agreement was outstanding for one week and was settled with the purchase of 6.8
million shares for $ 201.1
million. The Company accounted for the forward sales agreement as an equity instrument as the agreement required for physical
settlement in shares of the Company’s Common Stock and did not require or permit net cash settlement. Accordingly, the
contract was recorded in equity, and no gains or losses were recognized in earnings during the period. Upon settlement of
the forward sales agreement, the proceeds were recorded as an increase to Common Stock and additional paid in capital as part of the
ATM offerings.
On
August 19, 2025, the Company entered into an amended and restated sales agreement (which amended and restated the May 2025 ATM Sales
Agreement) to add additional sales agents to the ATM offering and to make certain conforming changes.
As
of September 30, 2025, SharpLink has raised total gross proceeds of $ 2,147,072,919
from sales of shares under the amended and restated May 2025 ATM Sales Agreement. The proceeds were used to further the

Approval
of Share Repurchase Program
On
August 21, 2025, the Board approved a share repurchase program (the “2025 Repurchase Program”) providing for the repurchase
of up to $ 1.5 billion of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock. Under the 2025 Repurchase Program, the Company is authorized
to repurchase shares of Common Stock through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions, or otherwise in accordance with
applicable federal securities laws. The 2025 Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to repurchase shares of Common Stock, and
the specific timing and amount of repurchases will vary based on available capital resources and other financial and operational performance
metrics, market conditions, securities law limitations and other factors.
In
connection with the 2025 Repurchase Program, on August 21, 2025, the Company entered into an open market share repurchase agreement
(the “Repurchase Agreement”) with a broker whereby the broker has agreed to act as a non-exclusive agent on behalf of
the Company to repurchase shares of Common Stock in the open market. The Repurchase Agreement will continue in effect until
terminated by either the Company or the broker, with or without cause, upon written notice to the other party. We will pay the broker
a commission at a rate of $ 0.01
for each share of common stock repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement.
During
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 1,938,450 shares of its Common Stock for $ 31.6 million. All
repurchased shares are recorded as treasury stock.

was effective on September 25, 2025. The increase in authorized shares provides additional flexibility to support the Inducement Award
Plan, among other initiatives.

Note
10 – Income Taxes
On
a quarterly basis, we estimate our annual effective tax rate and record a quarterly income tax provision based on the anticipated
rate. As the year progresses, we refine our estimate based on the facts and circumstances, including discrete events, by each tax
jurisdiction. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was 105 %,
primarily due to the full valuation allowance for its deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2025, and the Company recorded a tax
provision of $ 822,000 related
to current tax expense for the period ended September 30, 2025. The Company has NOLs available to offset a portion of the current
year taxable income, subject to certain limitations. At each reporting period, management considers new evidence, both positive and
negative, that could affect its view of the future realization of deferred tax assets. At September 30, 2025, management has
determined that there is not sufficient positive evidence to conclude that it is more likely than not that the Company’s net
deferred tax asset will be fully realized. The Company is in the process of dissolving certain legal entities to simplify its legal
structure. The tax impact of those legal entities being dissolved is not expected to be significant.
We
follow the authoritative guidance on accounting for and disclosure of uncertainty in tax positions, which requires us to determine whether
a tax position of the Company is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals of
litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. For tax positions meeting the more likely than not threshold, the
uncertain tax benefit amount recognized in the financial statements is reduced to the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood
of being realized upon the ultimate settlement with the relevant taxing authority. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions
are included in the provision for income taxes in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. In accordance with the Sale of
Business (See Note 13 – Discontinued Operations ), management performed an evaluation of the technical merits of the
Israeli Controlled Foreign Corporate Rules to determine the taxability of the gain from the Sale of Business from an Israeli tax perspective.
This analysis also considered the results of the U.S. income tax. Management determined that the technical merits for uncertain tax exposure
resulting from the gain for Israeli tax purposes did not exceed the more-likely-than-not threshold and has not recorded any income tax
liability at September 30, 2025. Management’s determination is based on known facts and circumstances and requires judgment of
a complex set of rules and regulations. If facts and circumstances change, such as closing, liquidating or selling of the businesses’
equity that is remaining, including events outside the Company’s control, this could have a material impact on the management’s
determination.
On
July 4, 2025, subsequent to the end of the reporting period, the U.S. federal government enacted the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ( “ OBBBA ” ) ,
which includes significant amendments to the Internal Revenue Code. The Company evaluated the impact of the legislation, and it did not have a material effect
on its consolidated financial statements, including deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Note
11 - Commitments and Contingencies
From
time to time, the Company may enter into certain types of contracts that require it to indemnify parties against third-party claims.
The conditions of these obligations vary. In addition, legal claims may be made against the Company in the ordinary course of business,
which could result in legal proceedings. Claims and associated litigation are subject to inherent uncertainties and unfavorable outcomes
could occur, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations for that period or future periods.
Historically,
the Company has not been obligated to make significant payments for these obligations and does not currently expect to incur any
material obligations in the future. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded a contingency liability on its Condensed Balance
Sheets as of September 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.
Note
12 – Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic
net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders, adjusted for preferred stock
discount accretion and dividends accrued on preferred stock, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period
excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share,
except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common stock that would have been outstanding if potential
shares of Common Stock had been issued if such additional common stock were dilutive.
As
the Company had net income from continuing operations and discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and a
net income from continuing operations and net loss from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the following
presents dilutive and anti-dilutive securities.

with Parent Seller and Subsidiary Seller, the “Seller”), a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of SharpLink,
entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “PA”) with RSports Interactive, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“Buyer”).
The Subsidiary Seller owns all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Sports Technologies, LLC, a Minnesota limited liability

Strategic
Advisory Agreement with Consensys Software Inc.
In
connection with the May 2025 PIPE Offering, the Company entered into a Strategic Advisor Agreement with Consensys, a Delaware corporation
and a related party. Consensys is a global blockchain technology company that provides decentralized applications and enterprise solutions,
focusing on building and scaling blockchain-based systems primarily on the Ethereum blockchain. Under the terms of the agreement, Consensys
will provide a broad range of advisory services related to the Company’s ETH Treasury Management strategy for three years. As consideration
for these services, Consensys received warrants to purchase up to 3,455,019
shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Strategic
Advisor Warrants”). See Note 7 - Warrants . The Company’s Chairman of the Board, Joseph Lubin, is CEO of Consensys.
Secondment
Agreements with Consensys Employees
As
part of the collaboration between the Company and Consensys, three employees of Consensys were seconded to SharpLink under secondment
agreements. These employees provided key services in areas including strategic planning, treasury management, technology integration
and business development. The secondment agreements outline the terms of the assignment, the duration, which began during the month of
June 2025 and terminated September 30, 2025, total monthly compensation of approximately $ 80,000 payable to Consensys and stock-based
compensation of a total of approximately $ 130,000 for RSU’s awarded in September 2025, and the allocation of responsibilities between
the parties. The seconded employees remain employees of Consensys, but they performed their duties for the Company during the secondment
period and report to the Company’s Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer. In exchange for these services, the
Company compensated Consensys for the associated costs on a monthly basis, including the employees’ salaries, benefits and other
related expenses. For the period ended September 30, 2025, approximately $ 283,000 was expensed in selling, general and administrative
expenses and $ 130,620 was expensed as stock-based compensation in relation to these agreements.

15 – Subsequent Events
October
2025 Registered Direct Offering
On
October 15, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (“October 2025 Purchase Agreement”) with an institutional
investor to sell in a registered direct offering (the “October 2025 Offering”) an aggregate of 4,500,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The price per share was $ 17.00 and the gross proceeds from the October 2025 Offering, before deducting placement agent
fees and offering expenses, were approximately $ 76.5 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the October 2025 Offering
to acquire ETH as well as for general working capital purposes. Under the October 2025 Purchase Agreement, the Company also granted the
investor 90-day premium purchase contracts, expiring on January 15, 2026, to purchase up to an additional 4,500,000 shares of Common
Stock at an exercise price of $ 17.50 (the “Premium Purchase Contract”). If the Premium Purchase Contracts are fully exercised,
the Company will receive an additional $ 78.8 million in approximate gross proceeds. On October 15, 2025, the Company entered into a placement
agent agreement (the “October 2025 Placement Agent Agreement”) with AGP as sole placement agent, pursuant to which the Company
engaged AGP as the exclusive placement agent in connection with the October 2025 Offering. Pursuant to the October 2025 Placement Agent
Agreement, the Company paid the AGP a cash fee equal to 2.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised from the sale of the securities sold
in the October 2025 Offering.
Linea
Deployment
On October 28, 2025, the Company announced a collaboration to deploy ETH from
its corporate treasury onto Linea, a zkEVM Layer 2 network. Based on current negotiations, the Company plans to allocate $ 200 million in ETH for deployment on Linea in a risk-managed manner over a multi-year
commitment period. The Company expects to leverage Linea’s institutional-grade infrastructure to optimize onchain yield to
capture differentiated ETH-denominated returns. This differentiated yield is expected to combine native Ethereum yield, restaking
rewards from securing EigenCloud Autonomous Verifiable Services (AVSs), and direct Linea and ether.fi partner incentives, all within a
compliant Layer 2 infrastructure.
LsETH Redemption
On November 8, 2025, SharpLink unstaked
32,573.83 LsETH, redeeming 35,626.73 ETH at price of $ 3,400.40
per ETH, totaling approximately $ 121.1
million. Of
the 35,626.73 ETH, 35,330 ETH is a return of ETH originally staked in a liquid staking protocol and 296.72 ETH represents accrued
staking rewards earned while staked; All of the redeemed ETH will be returned to the Company’s custodian, Anchorage Digital
Bank once the withdrawal process has been completed.

Business
Overview
Headquartered
in Minneapolis, SharpLink, a Delaware corporation, undertook a significant strategic shift in June 2025 by becoming one of the world’s
largest publicly traded companies to adopt Ether (“ETH”), the native token of the Ethereum blockchain, as its primary treasury
asset. This strategy reflects the Company’s commitment to align our corporate treasury with the future of programmable finance,
digital capital markets and decentralized infrastructure. The Company also operates an online affiliate marketing company that delivers
unique fan activation solutions to its sportsbook and online casino gaming partners.
In
tandem with this transformation, SharpLink has streamlined its business-building operations around two distinct reportable segments:
1)
ETH Treasury Management . We seek to benefit from our ETH accumulation strategy by (i) potential ETH price appreciation and (ii) protocol-level
rewards earned by participating in Ethereum’s proof-of-stake (“PoS”) consensus mechanism. We delegate our ETH to third-party
validators (directly or via asset managers) and participate in both native and liquid staking programs. Our staking infrastructure and
custody arrangements are designed to meet the governance, security and control standards expected of a public company.
2)
Affiliate Marketing. Our Affiliate Marketing segment is focused on performance-based customer acquisition services for leading sportsbooks
and online casino gaming operators worldwide. Through our iGaming affiliate marketing network, known as PAS.net, SharpLink focuses on
driving qualified traffic and player acquisitions, retention and conversions to U.S. regulated and global iGaming operator partners worldwide.
In addition, we own and operate a portfolio of direct-to-player, state-specific, affiliate marketing websites designed to attract, acquire
and drive local sports betting and online casino gaming traffic to its valued partners which are licensed to operate in each respective
state.

Our
decision to accumulate ETH as a core treasury asset is grounded in a forward-looking view of the evolving global financial ecosystem.
We believe Ethereum’s unparalleled programmability, security and active developer ecosystem position it as a foundational layer
for decentralized finance and Web3 applications. With Ethereum’s transition to a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism and the growth
of highly scalable Layer 2 networks, ETH has evolved into a yield-bearing, productive crypto asset with increasing institutional adoption
and intrinsic network value. We view ETH as a digital asset trust commodity, offering the potential for long-term appreciation and yield
generation as more stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets leverage the Ethereum ecosystem.
A
key aspect of our ETH Treasury Management strategy is to raise capital to be used to increase our ETH holdings and generate yield opportunities
in a manner which is accretive to shareholders. This can come in the form of equity, equity-linked debt, debt of any kind or any other
contract or arrangement intended to fund the purchase of ETH, whether or not such financing is formally classified as debt or equity
or other forms of offerings or arrangements (“Financings”), designed to maximize stockholder exposure to ETH within a prudent
risk management framework. We maintain the flexibility to buy back stock where it is accretive to stockholders. We have not set a specific
target for the maximum amount of ETH we seek to hold.
We
diligently track and routinely report key performance indicators designed to offer investors transparency and insight into the execution
and effectiveness of our ETH Treasury Management strategies. Among these metrics, our ETH concentration (“ETH Concentration”),
and growing it over time, has emerged as a central performance benchmark and “north star” metric by which we gauge our progress.
ETH Concentration, which is calculated by dividing our total ETH holdings by every 1,000 Assumed Diluted Shares outstanding, reflects
both the scale of our ETH accumulation efforts and the capital efficiency of our treasury operations. By prioritizing this metric, we
underscore our commitment to driving long-term shareholder value, rather than short-term fluctuations in asset prices or market capitalization.
Assumed
Diluted Shares Outstanding represents the sum of (i) our actual shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of the end of each reporting
period, plus (ii) the additional shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise or settlement of all outstanding warrants, pre-funded
warrants, stock option awards, and restricted stock units (“Assumed Diluted Shares Outstanding”). Assumed Diluted Shares
Outstanding is not calculated using the treasury stock method. It does not account for equity award vesting conditions, stock option
exercise prices, or contractual restrictions limiting the convertibility of debt instruments. Additionally, it excludes any assumed share
repurchases that would ordinarily be considered under the treasury stock method.
We
currently utilize native staking and liquid staking. In native staking, ETH remains onchain with withdrawal credentials controlled by
our custodian and rewards are recognized as revenue when earned. In liquid staking, we deposit ETH and receive liquid staking ETH (“LsETH”),
a redeemable receipt token; the ETH is derecognized and the LsETH is recorded as an indefinite-lived intangible asset subject to impairment.
Importantly,
our ETH Treasury Management strategy is complemented by our active participation in the Ethereum ecosystem. We are a founding member
of the Linea Consortium, along with Consensys, see Note 14 - Related Partie s, a leading governance body supporting the development
of Ethereum’s most aligned Layer 2 blockchain network. Our participation in the consortium enables us to help steer capital allocation
toward high-impact infrastructure, public goods and innovation pipelines that are intended to strengthen the long-term utility and defensibility
of the Ethereum network, reinforcing the intrinsic value of our own ETH treasury assets.
Continuing
Operations –
ETH
Treasury Management
In
June 2025, we formally launched our ETH-centered treasury strategy and established staking as a dedicated operating segment, recognizing
its potential to deliver recurring, yield-based revenue. Our staking revenues are derived from the rewards we earn by actively participating
in the Ethereum network’s proof-of-stake consensus mechanism. Specifically, we delegate our ETH holdings to validators that process
and verify transactions on the blockchain. In return, we receive protocol-level rewards in ETH, typically proportional to the amount
staked and the network’s overall activity and performance. Our ETH Treasury Management segment includes both native and liquid
staking activities.
Since initiating our ETH Treasury Management operations on June 2, 2025, we
have accumulated approximately 861,251 in total ETH holdings, comprised of 637,752 in native ETH and 223,499 in ETH on an as if redeemed
basis from LsETH, as of November 9, 2025. The ETH holdings were derived through purchases of ETH, receipts of ETH from investors
and ETH rewards. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, revenues generated from native staking rewards totaled $10,302,343,
as staking only commenced two-thirds of the way through the second quarter of this year. These native staking rewards represent the ETH-based
rewards accumulated through the delegation of ETH to staking validators, which we expect to scale materially in future quarters in correlation
with growth in our treasury balance and broader ETH market performance. The foregoing revenue does not include staking rewards generated
from our LsETH holdings, see Liquid Staking Protocol disclosure below.
We view our ETH Treasury Management operations as a core strategic pillar of its
broader alignment with the Ethereum ecosystem. Our participation not only yields economic return but also contributes directly to Ethereum’s
decentralization, scalability, and security. Moreover, we believe staking is foundational to a new generation of blockchain-native capital
structures that enable corporations to earn yield without relying on traditional debt instruments, equities, or centralized intermediaries.
Our staking efforts are focused on maximizing yield, managing risk and ensuring that our operations meet institutional standards for transparency
and efficiency.
On
October 28, 2025, we announced our plans to allocate $200 million in ETH from our corporate treasury for deployment on Linea, a zkEVM
Layer 2 network bootstrapped by Consensys, in a risk-managed manner over a multi-year period. As a public entity operating at the forefront
of Digital Asset Treasury (“DAT”) innovation, upon execution of definitive documentation, SharpLink will leverage Linea’s
institutional-grade infrastructure to make its ETH even more productive by unlocking scalable, secure and composable ways to optimize
onchain yield. This deployment on Linea will bring together leading ecosystem participants in an innovative collaboration that allows
SharpLink to capture highly competitive, risk-adjusted, ETH-denominated returns. The strategy is supported by institutional-grade risk
management, leveraging the scale of our digital asset treasury with the custodian protections of Anchorage Digital Bank, SharpLink’s
qualified custodian. The yield will combine native Ethereum yield, restaking rewards from securing EigenCloud Autonomous Verifiable Services
(AVSs), and direct Linea and ether.fi partner incentives, all within a compliant Layer 2 infrastructure.
Liquid
Staking Protocol
As
part of our ETH Treasury Management strategy, we participate in liquid staking through the Liquid Collective protocol. In a liquid staking
arrangement, we transfer ETH to the protocol and receive LsETH, a fungible ERC-20 receipt token, that represents a proportional interest
in the protocol’s pool of staked ETH. LsETH is accounted for as an indefinite-lived intangible asset under ASC 350-30, and recorded
at cost, less any impairment losses.
The
Liquid Collective protocol establishes a daily Protocol Conversion Rate (“PCR”), which reflects the amount of ETH into which
a unit of LsETH is redeemable. The PCR is calculated by dividing the total ETH held by the protocol, including accumulated staking rewards
(net of penalties or slashing fees), by the total number of LsETH tokens in circulation. The PCR is updated daily through the protocol’s
on-chain infrastructure and is publicly accessible.

Table of Contents
The
PCR is not a market trading price. The process of redeeming LsETH for ETH is subject to the validator exit queue, bonding periods and
other mechanics that may affect the timing and execution of redemption. As a result, we may not be able to redeem our holdings immediately.
As
of September 30, 2025, we held 236,906 LsETH tokens. The following table presents a roll-forward of our LsETH holdings, including relevant
details related to LsETH purchases and impairment losses within the periods presented. We have not sold or redeemed any LsETH as of September

The
amounts reported as “Market Value” in the table above represent only a mathematical calculation consisting of the number
of LsETH tokens held by us at the end of the applicable period multiplied by the market price of LsETH as reported on the Coinbase Exchange.
The
LsETH token is relatively new and the market for LsETH may be subject to manipulation, limited transparency, inconsistent pricing sources,
and episodic illiquidity. The price information referenced may not reflect actionable market depth or executable prices, and there is
no assurance that we would be able to sell our LsETH holdings at the Market Value amounts indicated above, at the quoted market price,
or at all. The market infrastructure supporting LsETH remains nascent, and future developments in protocol mechanics, exchange support,
or regulatory oversight may materially impact pricing, liquidity, and valuation methodologies. Accordingly, the Market Value amounts
reported above may not accurately reflect the fair market value of LsETH, and the actual realizable value of our holdings could differ
materially from the calculated figures.
Affiliate
Marketing
In
December 2021, we acquired certain assets of FourCubed, including FourCubed’s online casino gaming-focused affiliate marketing
network, known as PAS.net (“PAS”). For more than 18 years, PAS has focused on delivering quality traffic and player acquisitions,
retention and conversions to regulated and global casino gaming operator partners worldwide. In fact, PAS won industry recognition as
the European online gambling industry’s Top Affiliate Manager, Top Affiliate Website and Top Affiliate Program for four consecutive
years by both igamingbusiness.com and igamingaffiliate.com. The strategic acquisition of FourCubed brought us talent with proven experience
in affiliate marketing services and recurring net gaming revenue (“NGR”) contracts with many of the world’s leading
online casino gambling companies, including Party Poker, bwin, UNIBET, GG Poker, 888 poker, betfair, World Poker Tour and others.
As
part of our strategy to expand our affiliate marketing services to the emerging American sports betting market, in November 2022, we
began a systematic roll-out of our U.S.-focused performance-based marketing business with the launch of 15 state-specific, content-rich
affiliate marketing websites. Our user-friendly, state-specific domains are designed to attract, acquire and drive local sports betting
and casino traffic directly to our sportsbook and casino partners, which are licensed to operate in each respective state. As of January
2024, we are licensed to operate in 18 jurisdictions and own and operate sites serving 17 U.S. states (Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Illinois,
Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and Wyoming).
As more states legalize sports betting, our portfolio of state-specific affiliate marketing properties may expand to include them. We
largely utilize search engine optimization and programmatic advertising campaigns to drive traffic to our direct-to-player (“D2P”)
sites.

Other
Matters -
Addition
of Sales Agents to ATM Offering
On
August 19, 2025, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Sales Agreement (the “Amended and Restated ATM Sales
Agreement”) (which amended and restated the May 2025 ATM Sales Agreement) by and among the Company, A.G.P., Canaccord Genuity
LLC (“Canaccord Genuity”), Societe Generale, B. Riley Securities, Inc. (“B. Riley”), and Citizens JMP
Securities, LLC (“Citizens”) to add Canaccord Genuity, Societe Generale, B. Riley, and Citizens as additional sales
agents and to make certain conforming changes.
Adoption
of Inducement Award Plan
On
August 19, 2025, the Board adopted the SharpLink Gaming, Inc. Inducement Award Plan (the “Inducement Award Plan”). The Inducement
Award Plan was adopted without stockholder approval pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4) and will be administered by the Compensation
Committee of the Board or the independent members of the Board. The Board reserved 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock
for issuance under the Inducement Award Plan, subject to adjustment as provided in the plan document. The terms of the Inducement Award
Plan are substantially similar to the terms of the Company’s Amended and Restated 2023 Equity Incentive Plan, with the exception
that incentive stock options may not be issued under the Inducement Award Plan and equity awards under the Inducement Award Plan (including
nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and other stock-based awards) may be issued only an employee who
is commencing employment with the Company or any subsidiary or who is being rehired following a bona fide interruption of employment
by the Company or any subsidiary, in either case if he or she is granted such award in connection with his or her commencement of employment
and such grant is an inducement material to his or her entering into employment with the Company or such subsidiary. The Board also adopted
a form of Restricted Stock Unit Agreement Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Grant (Time-Based Grant) (the “Inducement Time-Based
RSU Grant Package”) and a form of Restricted Stock Unit Agreement Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Grant (Performance-Based Grant)
(the “Inducement Performance-Based RSU Grant Package”) for use under the Inducement Award Plan.
2025
Share Repurchase Plan
On
August 21, 2025, the Board approved a share repurchase program (the “2025 Repurchase Program”) providing for the
repurchase of up to $1.5 billion of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. Under the 2025 Repurchase Program, the
Company is authorized to repurchase shares of common stock through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions,
accelerated share repurchases, or otherwise in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including through Rule 10b5-1
trading plans and under Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The 2025
Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to repurchase shares of common stock and the specific timing and amount of
repurchases will vary based on available capital resources and other financial and operational performance metrics, market
conditions, securities law limitations and other factors. In connection with the 2025 Repurchase Program, on August 21, 2025, the
Company entered into an Open Market Share Repurchase Agreement (the “Repurchase Agreement”) with The Benchmark Company,
LLC (the “Broker”) whereby the Broker has agreed to act as a non-exclusive agent on behalf of the Company to repurchase
shares of the Company’s common stock in the open market pursuant to Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act. The Repurchase Agreement will
continue in effect until terminated by either the Company or the Broker, with or without cause, upon written notice to the other
party. The Company will pay Broker a commission at a rate of $0.01 for each share of common stock repurchased pursuant to the
Repurchase Agreement. As of September 30, 2025, the Company has repurchased 1,938,450 shares of its Common Stock pursuant to the
2025 Repurchase Program at an average price of $16.33 per share.
Appointment
of Superstate as Digital Transfer Agent
On
September 25, 2025, we announced that financial technology firm, Superstate, was appointed by the Company as its Digital Transfer
Agent in connection with our plans to tokenize our SEC-registered common stock directly on the Ethereum blockchain. By enabling its
equity to be tokenized natively onchain, SharpLink aims to demonstrate how public companies can use blockchain infrastructure to
create shareholder value, improve market efficiency and drive forward the next generation of capital markets. SharpLink intends to
partner with Superstate to tokenize its equity on Ethereum through its Opening Bell platform, expanding Superstate’s
multichain capital markets infrastructure. SharpLink and Superstate also intend to closely collaborate on advancing how tokenized
public equities can ultimately trade on Automated Market Makers (“AMMs”) and other DeFi protocols in a fully compliant
manner. This initiative aligns with the SEC’s broader Project Crypto innovation agenda aimed at modernizing U.S. securities
regulation to better enable digital assets, blockchain and onchain markets.
Reverse
Stock Split
On
May 5, 2025, we effected a one-for-twelve (1:12) reverse stock split of all the Company’s common stock, whereby the Company
decreased the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock from 7,916,206 to 659,684. Proportional adjustments for the
reverse stock split were made to the Company’s outstanding stock options, warrants and equity incentive plans. All share and
per-share data and amounts have been retrospectively adjusted as of the earliest period presented in the financial statements to
reflect the reverse stock split.
Acquisition
of 10% Equity Stake in Armchair Enterprises
On
February 24, 2025, we entered into a subscription agreement (“Subscription Agreement”) with U.K.-based Armchair Enterprises
Limited (“Armchair”), which owns and operates CryptoCasino.com. The acquisition of a 10% equity stake in Armchair was made
for $500,000 in cash, along with a right of first refusal to acquire a controlling interest in Armchair. The investment was recorded
at cost and will be measured at cost minus impairment, adjusted for any observable price changes. There was no impairment as of September
30, 2025.

For

Revenue
and gains (loss) from operations
For
the three months ended September 30, 2025, revenues and gains (losses) from operations increased 1,129.9% to $10,843,567 compared to
$881,690 reported for the same three-month period in the prior year. The notable increase was due to revenues from staking generated
by our ETH Treasury Management segment, launched on June 2, 2025, which was $10,273,809, or 94.8% of our total revenues for the
quarter ended September 30, 2025. The revenues from staking have immaterial costs and therefore nearly 100% gross margin. The
increase in revenues was offset by a 35.4% decline in revenues generated in our Affiliate Marketing Segment, which generated
$569,758 in revenues compared to $881,690 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in
affiliate marketing revenues was primarily due to softening market conditions in the global iGaming industry, changes in customer
pricing structures and the loss of customers due primarily to evolving regulatory environments in certain foreign markets in which
our affiliate marketing business operates.
Other
Operating Income
We recognized a gain on crypto assets at fair value of $6,307,776 and
recorded an unrealized gain on crypto assets of $107,326,140 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 as compared
to $0 and $0, respectively for the same three-month period in the prior year, resulting from fair value accounting adjustments.
Total
Operating Expenses
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, cost of revenues - affiliate marketing
decreased $278,476 to $430,569 compared to the same three-month period in the prior year. This decrease is reflective of the decrease
in revenues from Affiliate Marketing Segment. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, total selling, general and administrative
expenses increased 1,141.7% to $12,045,432 from $970,080 reported for the same three-month period in the prior year. The increase
was directly attributable to the following: $3,145,826 in asset manager fees, $4,879,127 in higher compensation costs, $1,798,497 in
accounting, legal and compliance fees, $657,114 in custodial and banking fees each incurred to establish and support our ETH
Treasury Management strategy. We also recognized an impairment loss on LsETH, crypto assets of $6,950,189 compared to $0 for the three
months ended September 30, 2024.

income from operations increased 13,329.5% to $104,247,275 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to a net loss
from operations of $(787,992) reported for the same three-month period in 2024. This is attributable to the impairment on crypto
assets of LsETH of $6,950,189 offset by a $6,307,776 net realized gains on our crypto assets and an unrealized gain on our crypto
assets which totaled $107,326,140 for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
Net
Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax
For

to a net loss from discontinued operations, net of tax of $(97,139) for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in net
income from discontinued operations is due to the wind down of certain MTS business amounts.

June 2, 2025, which was $10,302,343, or 84% of our total revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The revenues from
staking have immaterial costs and therefore nearly 100% gross margin. The increase in revenues was offset by a 30.2% decline in
revenues generated in our Affiliate Marketing Segment, which generated $1,980,246 in revenues compared to $2,838,908 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in affiliate marketing revenues was primarily due to softening

Total
Operating Expenses
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, cost of revenues - affiliate marketing
decreased $570,214 to $1,528,707 compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease is reflective of the decrease

expenses increased 248.7% to $15,435,938 from $4,426,835 reported for the same nine-month period in the prior year. The increase
was directly attributable to the following: $3,523,667 in asset manager fees, $5,347,502 in higher compensation costs, $1,442,761 in
accounting, legal and compliance fees, $734,635 in custodial and banking fees each incurred to establish and support our

continuing operations of $(3,465,467) reported for the same nine-month period in 2024. This is attributable to the impairment on LsETH crypto assets at cost of $94,763,484 offset by a $11,681,359 net realized gains on crypto assets and unrealized gain on
crypto assets of $104,889,114.
Net
Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax
For

to a net income from discontinued operations, net of tax of $14,467,733 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease to
the net loss from discontinued operations is due to the gain on the sale of the SHGN and Sports Gaming Client Services business operations
in the first quarter of 2024.
Net

As
a result of the aforementioned reasons, net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $(127,423), declining 101.2%
when compared to net income of $11,002,266 reported for nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Cash
Flows
Nine
Months Ended September 30, 2025 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024
As
of September 30, 2025, cash on hand was $11,128,231, a 674.6% increase when compared to cash on hand of $1,436,729 as of December 31,
2024. The increase was due to net proceeds raised from the PIPE, ATM and registered direct offerings completed in the second and third
quarters of 2025.
For
the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations totaled $(8,183,743) compared
to net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations of $(4,434,002) in the prior year. Net cash used in operating activities
from discontinued operations was $(225,981), which compared to net cash used in operating activities of $(17,112,182) from discontinued
operations for the same nine-month period in 2024. Overall, net cash used in operating activities was $(8,409,724) and $(21,546,184)
for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The change in the operating cash flows was largely attributable

nine-month period in 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, net cash used in investing activities from discontinued
operations was $0 and $(18,857,834), respectively. The increase in net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September
30, 2025 versus 2024 was due to our new ETH Treasury Management strategy and the related purchases of $2,539,611,653 of ETH crypto assets.
The decrease in total cash used in investing activities for discontinued operations is due to cash received from the sale of business
in January 2024 of $22,500,000, net of the cash transferred of $41,357,834. The majority of the cash transferred of $41,357,834 was reflected

For
the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net cash generated by financing activities from continuing operations was $2,922,567,907, a
23,788.1% increase when compared to net cash used by financing activities from continuing operations of $(12,337,694) for the same nine-month
period in 2024. Cash generated by financing activities related to gross cash proceeds from the sale of our Common Stock of $2,147,072,919,
a registered offering with gross cash proceeds of $4,500,000 and $902,086,156 raised from private placements of our equity securities.

Table of Contents
Principal
Sources of Liquidity
Our
principal sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents balances, USDC stablecoins, cash flow from operations, and proceeds
from equity financing transactions, including pursuant to our at-the-market offering facility under the Amended and Restated ATM
Sales Agreement with A.G.P.
Under
our Treasury Reserve Policy, we use the vast majority of our cash, including cash generated from capital raising transactions, to
acquire ETH, some of which are classified as indefinite-lived intangible assets. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we
held approximately 580,841 and 0 ETH in crypto assets at fair value, respectively, all of which are unencumbered. As of September
30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we held approximately 236,906 and 0 LsETH in crypto assets at cost, respectively. As of November 9,
2025, we held approximately 861,251 in total ETH holdings, comprised of 637,752 in native ETH and 223,499 in ETH as if redeemed from
LsETH, all of which are unencumbered. As discussed further below, although we do not anticipate needing to use our ETH to meet our
obligations in the next 12 months, we believe our substantial ETH holdings can serve as a source of liquidity, if
necessary.
Short-Term
and Long-Term Liquidity
Short-Term
Liquidity — Our short-term liquidity needs include working capital requirements, anticipated capital expenditures, and contractual
obligations due within the next 12 months. We expect that our cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2025, together with cash
and cash equivalents generated by our operations, will be sufficient to satisfy these needs over the next nine months. We anticipate
being able to use proceeds from financings to meet these needs. Although we do not anticipate needing to use our ETH to meet our short-term
liquidity needs, to the extent necessary, we may seek to use proceeds from the sale of our ETH to meet such needs. See “ Availability
of ETH for Liquidity ” below and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” for additional information.
Long-Term
Liquidity — Beyond the next 12 months, our long-term cash needs are primarily for obligations related to working capital needs.
We expect our cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2025, together with cash and cash equivalents generated by our operations,
will be sufficient to satisfy these needs. See “ Availability of ETH for Liquidity ” below and “Item 1A. Risk
Factors” for additional information.
Availability
of ETH for Liquidity — We do not believe we will need to sell or engage in other transactions with respect to any of our ETH
within the next 12 months to meet our liquidity needs, although we may from time to time sell or engage in other transactions with respect
to our ETH as part of treasury management operations, as noted above. The ETH market historically has been characterized by significant
volatility in its price, limited liquidity and trading volumes compared to sovereign currencies markets, relative anonymity, a developing
regulatory landscape, susceptibility to market abuse and manipulation, compliance and internal control failures at exchanges, and various
other risks inherent in its entirely electronic, virtual form and decentralized network. During times of instability in the ETH market,
we may not be able to sell our ETH at reasonable prices or at all. As a result, our ETH are less liquid than our existing cash and cash
equivalents and may not be able to serve as a source of liquidity for us to the same extent as cash and cash equivalents. In addition,
upon sale of our ETH, we may incur additional taxes related to any realized gains or we may incur capital losses as to which the tax
deduction may be limited. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” for additional information.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
On
September 30, 2025, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future
effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures
or capital resources. Since our inception, except for standard operating leases accounted for prior to January 1, 2022, we have not engaged
in any off-balance sheet arrangements, including the use of structured finance, special purpose entities or variable interest entities.
Inflation
Our
opinion is that inflation did not have a material effect on our operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Climate
Change
Our
opinion is that neither climate change, nor governmental regulations related to climate change, have had, or are expected to have, any
material effect on our operations.

November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic
220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), and in January 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards
Update No. 2025-01, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying
the Effective Date (“ASU 2025-01”). ASU 2024-03 requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the
income statement as well as disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented in the income statement.
ASU 2024-03, as clarified by ASU 2025-01, is effective for us for our annual reporting for fiscal 2028 and for interim period reporting
beginning in fiscal 2029 on a prospective basis. Both early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact that the adoption of these standards will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In
December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
(“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires enhanced disclosures surrounding income taxes, particularly related to rate reconciliation
and income taxes paid information. In particular, on an annual basis, companies will be required to disclose specific categories in the
rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Companies will also
be required to disclose, on an annual basis, the amount of income taxes paid, disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes, and
also disaggregated by individual jurisdictions above a quantitative threshold. The standard is effective for the Company for annual periods
beginning January 1, 2025 on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted for all prior periods presented. The Company
will adopt ASU 2023-09 for the annual period ending December 31, 2025 and is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its
disclosures.
