Summary
AmBase posted a $1.24M Q3 loss with only $106K of cash, again flagging substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Survival depends on CEO-provided litigation funding — now $9.0M outstanding — and on the 111 West 57th Street bench trial set for November 30, 2026.

Going Concern Doubt Reiterated
Management again concluded there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year, with stockholders' deficit widening to $11,436K from $8,685K at December 31, 2025.

$9.0M Litigation Funding Outstanding
Related-party litigation funding totaled $9,000K at quarter-end ($7,000K from CEO R.A. Bianco, $2,000K from BARC), and Bianco added a further $1,500K in October 2026. Funders are repaid first, plus a multiple of 1.0x to 3.5x, before the Company shares in any recovery.

Apollo Summary Judgment Denied
On October 28, 2026, the court denied Apollo Lenders' motion for summary judgment against the Company, keeping the Pledge Agreement claim alive.
Analysis · ABCP · Real Estate & Construction
The entire value of AmBase, a litigation shell, hinges on the 111 West 57th Street case, and this quarter shows the cash burn continuing: a $1.24M net loss against just $106K of cash on hand. Only CEO Richard Bianco's continued funding keeps the company alive — $9.0M of litigation funding is now outstanding, and he added another $1.5M in October. Because every dollar of that funding takes a priority claim on any future litigation recovery, a win at the November 30, 2026 bench trial would be split with insiders before common holders see anything. The one piece of genuinely new legal news is favorable: on October 28 the court denied Apollo Lenders' summary judgment motion, keeping the Company's claims alive into trial.
