• Going Concern Warning Issued

  Management explicitly stated "substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern" due to significant net losses, negative working capital, and cash outflows from operations.

• Massive Financial Deterioration in 2025

  The company reported a net loss of $101.83 million in 2025, a significant increase from $14.55 million in 2024. Revenue declined by 82.5% to $12.33 million, and working capital turned negative by $91.36 million.

• Highly Dilutive Convertible Note Financings

  Xiao-I Corp raised approximately $10 million through multiple convertible notes in 2024-2025, many with variable conversion prices at a discount to VWAP, leading to substantial share dilution for existing shareholders.

• Immediate Nasdaq Delisting Risk

  Following a 1-for-9 reverse ADS split in August 2024 to regain compliance, the company faces immediate delisting if its ADS price falls below $1.00 again before August 2025, under a new Nasdaq rule.

Xiao-I Corp's annual report reveals a critical financial situation, with management explicitly stating "substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern." The company reported a net loss of $101.83 million in 2025, a dramatic increase from $14.55 million in 2024, alongside an 82.5% revenue decline to $12.33 million and negative working capital of $91.36 million. This severe financial deterioration is compounded by a series of highly dilutive convertible note financings in 2024-2025, which raised approximately $10 million but included variable conversion prices at a discount to market, leading to significant share dilution. Furthermore, the company faces an immediate Nasdaq delisting risk under a new rule: if its ADS price falls below $1.00 again before August 2025, following a 1-for-9 reverse ADS split in August 2024, it will not be granted a new compliance period. While a recent Supreme People's Court ruling in China upheld the validity of Xiao-I's patent against Apple, this legal victory does not mitigate the immediate and severe financial challenges and operational risks highlighted in the report.
