10-K for the period ended April 30, 2025 for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis. All dollar
figures expressed in terms of millions are rounded to one decimal place. All percentages are calculated using the unrounded underlying
figures and rounded to the nearest whole number .
Overview
The
Company operates through Yuanyu Enterprise Management Co., Limited (“YYEM”), a Hong Kong-based subsidiary established in
November 2021 that is engaged in the emerging love and marriage market sector.
YYEM’s
mission is to empower global connections through innovative matchmaking technology. We own advanced patents and other proprietary technology
which we license out, and we are using this intellectual property to develop an AI-powered matchmaking platform to license to partners
worldwide, enabling them to create localized matchmaking experiences tailored to their specific markets and cultures. We believe our
pioneering technology has the power to transform the matchmaking industry, leading to greater success for our licensees and their clients,
and ultimately leading to more people finding successful life partnerships.
We
have license agreements in place with various entities to use the IP in numerous countries across Asia, Europe, and Africa, generating
royalties of $3.0 million in our three months ended July 31, 2025.
In
February 2025, YYEM entered into an agency agreement to develop content for TikTok across the MENA region, leveraging Twitch-hosted live-streaming
in sports, gaming, and lifestyle categories. While no upfront payments were received, the agreement positions us to monetize end-user
engagement once our influencer network is developed. Revenue under this agreement will depend on performance-based conversion metrics,
and as of July 31, 2025, influencer network capabilities were still nascent. We consider this development a positive step toward the
diversification of our revenue streams.
Fundraising
Private Placement
On June 30, 2025, we executed
a securities purchase agreement to issue 20,000,000 units (each unit comprising one share of common stock and two five-year warrants with
an exercise price of $0.89), targeting gross proceeds of $4.6 million (the “Private Placement”). Closing was contingent on
Nasdaq listing compliance and shareholder approval. The warrants allow for cashless exercise if no effective registration is in place.
This financing, when consummated, is anticipated to improve liquidity and capital resources through 2025 and beyond. On August 19, 2025,
the Company closed the Private Placement, generating gross proceeds of $4,600,000 (without taking into account any exercise of the warrants
included in the Private Placement).
ATM
Facility
Under
a prospectus supplement dated August 22, 2025 that amends the prospectus supplement dated June 11, 2025 and its accompanying prospectus
dated June 11, 2025, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of our registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-284188)
(the “Registration Statement”) relating to the offer and sale of our common stock through A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners
(“A.G.P.”) in “at the market offerings” (the “ATM facility”) as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to the sales agreement with A.G.P. dated as of January 8, 2025 (the “Sales Agreement”),
the amount we could raise under our ATM facility was specified to be $200 million. No shares had been sold through this facility as of
July 31, 2025, but the agreement provides strategic flexibility for future capital raising.

Recent
Developments
On August 25, 2025, the Company
and JuCoin Capital Pte Ltd (“JuCoin”) signed an agreement (the “JV Agreement”) to jointly establish a joint venture
company (the “JV”) to found and operate a new cryptocurrency exchange (the “Joint Venture”) within 120 days of
the JV Agreement. At the closing of the Joint Venture, each of the Company and JuCoin will contribute $250 million in cash or cryptocurrency.
In exchange, the JV will issue 51% of its share capital to the Company and 49% to JuCoin. The Company will appoint three of the five
members of the board of directors of the JV, though certain material decisions will require the approval of both parties. The JV Agreement
may be terminated if the closing of the JV Agreement has not occurred within six months of signing, by mutual agreement of the parties,
or if the transaction becomes prohibited by applicable law.
Components
of Results of Operations
Revenue
Our
revenue is generated from license fees paid by customers for the use of our technology.
Expenses
Cost
of revenue consists primarily of amortization charges against intangible assets (specifically, technology rights), which are directly
attributable to revenue.
General
and administrative expense primarily consists of salaries and benefits for employees involved in general corporate functions; professional
fees for external legal, accounting, and other consulting services; traveling expenses; and other general office and administrative expenses.
Gross
Profit
Gross
profit is calculated as revenue less cost of revenue.

Revenue
Our
revenue decreased by $0.3 million, or 8%, from $3.3 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2024 to $3.0 million for the three-month
period ended July 31, 2025, which was attributable to a minor timing difference resulting from the dates on which the various license
agreements were signed.
Cost
of Revenue
Our
cost of revenue did not change because it consists of the amortization of our IP intangible assets, which remained constant.
General
and Administrative Expenses
General
and administrative expenses, which mainly consist of salaries, professional fees, and other general office and administrative expenses,
increased by $0.7 million, from $0.1 million to $0.8 million, primarily driven by higher costs relating to YYEM becoming an operating
subsidiary of a Nasdaq-listed company, which occurred in November 2024. This included audit fees, legal fees, insurance premiums, and
directors’ and officers’ compensation.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
We
finance our operations primarily through cash generated from operations. We had working capital, or net current assets, of $17.9 million
as of July 31, 2025, compared to $15.9 million as of April 30, 2025, an increase of approximately $2.0 million, or 13%. In comparison
with April 30, 2025, our accounts receivable as of July 31, 2025, increased by $3.0 million as we recognized royalty revenue for the quarter
in accordance with our recognition policy while the credit terms of our licensees permit payment up to 90 days after the end of our financial
year. As of July 31, 2025, we had retained earnings of $7.0 million.
The
following is a summary of our cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities for the three-month periods ended July 31,
2025 and 2024:

Our cash and cash equivalents
were relatively steady, at approximately $0.5 million as of July 31, 2025 and 2024.
Net
cash used in operating activities was $1.08 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2025, compared with $0.6 million for the
same period in the prior year, a decline of $0.5 million in operating cash flow. This change was driven primarily by a $0.7 million increase in general and administrative expenses relating to YYEM
becoming an operating subsidiary of a Nasdaq-listed company, as explained in greater detail above.
Since
our cash level was low in the period before payment from our licensees was due, we had no cash allocated to investing activities, neither
putting cash into investments nor receiving cash from investments.
The
only cash flow we recorded as financing activities was a non-cash item: a $1.1 million decline in the value of a guarantee given to the
Company by our Chairman in respect of listed shares we own as the shares increased in value over this period. (As the deficit in the shares’ value declined, the size of the guarantee required to provide the Company with
value equal to the shares’ value at the time of contribution also declined.)
Based
on our current operating plans, we believe that our existing cash at the time of this filing will be sufficient to meet our anticipated
operating needs for at least the next 12 months and that we will have sufficient financial resources available through capital markets
fundraising if we should decide to incur additional capital expenditure or make other investments. Our future capital requirements will
depend upon many factors, including competing technological and market developments, our R&D efforts, and decisions regarding acquisitions
of further patents or companies or other assets.
Off
Balance Sheet Arrangements
We
do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our
financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditure, or
capital resources that are material to investors.
Significant
Accounting Policies
Our
significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 to the accompanying financial statements. The following is a summary of those
accounting policies that involve significant estimates and judgment of management.
3
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions
related to long-lived assets and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current
facts, historical experience, and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which
form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are
not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially from the Company’s
estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will
be affected.
Allowance
for Credit Losses
Accounts
receivable are stated at their historical carrying amount net of allowance for credit losses.
Allowance
for credit loss represents management’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in the portfolio. On June 30, 2022, the Company
adopted ASC 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.
This guidance replaced the “incurred loss” impairment methodology with an approach based on “expected losses”
to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable
information to inform credit loss estimates. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the cost of
the financial asset to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset.
The
Company considers various factors, including the nature, historical collection
experience, age of the accounts receivable balances,
credit quality and specific risk characteristics of its customers, and current economic conditions to develop an estimate of credit losses.
Additionally, the Company makes specific allowance for credit losses based on any specific knowledge the Company has acquired that might
indicate that an account is uncollectible. The facts and circumstances of each account may require the Company to use substantial judgment
in assessing its collectability. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance.
As of July 31, 2025 and April 30, 2025, the Company had made no reserves.
Impairment
of long-lived assets
Long-lived
assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions
that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying value may not be fully recoverable or that the useful life
is shorter than the Company had originally estimated. When these events occur, the Company evaluates the impairment by comparing carrying
value of the assets to an estimate of future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the use of the assets and their eventual
disposition. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the Company recognizes
an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying value of the assets over the fair value of the assets. Impairment charge recognized
for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024 was nil.
Fair
value of financial instruments
Fair
value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required
or permitted to be either recorded or disclosed at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which
it would transact, and it also considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.
Revenue
Recognition
Revenue
represents the amount of consideration the Company is entitled to upon the transfer of promised goods or services in the ordinary
course of the Company’s activities and is recorded net of VAT. The Company has adopted the following five steps for revenue recognition: (i) identify the contracts with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii)
determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (v)
recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
4
Consistent
with the criteria of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations
are satisfied by transferring control of a promised good or service to a customer. For performance obligations that are satisfied at
a point in time, the Company also considers the following indicators to assess whether control of a promised good or service is transferred
to the customer: (i) right to payment, (ii) legal title, (iii) physical possession, (iv) significant risks and rewards of ownership and
(v) acceptance of the good or service.
The
Company recognizes revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled for its products and services.
Accounts receivable are recorded when obligations have been performed and billed to the customer. During the period after the right to
payment has become unconditional but before a bill has been issued, the amount owed is recorded as accrued revenue (receivables). The
Company’s terms and conditions vary by customer and typically provide net 90-day terms.
The
Company receives royalty income in the form of license fees from customers for the use of the Company’s technology rights by the
customers. Royalty income is recognized over time when the Company’s technology rights are used by the customers in accordance
with the terms and conditions of the relevant license agreement. Revenue is recognized by the Company not only when invoices have been
signed and confirmed by customers but also at the end of each year over the term of the relevant license agreements as the service is
provided to the customers.
Income
Taxes
The
Company has adopted ASC 740, Income Taxes, which requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.
Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable
to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Prior
to the acquisition by YYAI, YYEM was a limited liability company. As a limited liability company, the Company’s taxable income
or loss is allocated to members in accordance with their respective percentage ownership. Therefore, no provision or liability for federal
income taxes has been included in the financial statements. In the event of an examination of the Company’s tax return, the tax
liability of the members could be changed if an adjustment in the Company’s income is ultimately sustained by the taxing authorities.
Share-Based
Payment
The
Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. Under the fair
value recognition provisions of this topic, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the
award and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
The
Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition,
results of operations, cash flows, or disclosures.
