• Dilutive Private Placement at Deep Discount

  The company issued 6,500,000 ordinary shares at $0.774 per share for gross proceeds of $5.03 million on February 25, 2026. This represents approximately 8.9% dilution to prior outstanding shares and was priced significantly below the current market price of $7.57. As of March 31, 2026, $1.19 million of the proceeds remained as a subscription receivable.

• Persistent Material Weaknesses in Internal Controls

  Management concluded that disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2026, due to material weaknesses previously identified in the annual report. No new changes were reported, but the existing weaknesses persist.

• Significant Revenue Growth from New Business Focus

  Revenue from continuing operations (financial services and advisory) increased by 1,924.92% to $507,546 for Q1 2026, compared to $25,065 in Q1 2025, reflecting a successful shift in business strategy.

• Going Concern Doubts Alleviated

  Despite an accumulated deficit of $687 million and a net loss of $1.35 million for Q1 2026, management believes its $36.7 million in cash and plans for growth in financial services alleviate substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for at least the next twelve months.

This quarterly report reveals a significant dilutive private placement priced at a deep discount to the current market, which is a strong negative signal for existing shareholders. While the company reported substantial revenue growth in its new business focus and stated that going concern doubts are alleviated, the persistent material weaknesses in internal controls and continued net losses remain key concerns. The company is transitioning away from its unprofitable Filecoin mining business, which is a positive step, but the capital raise terms indicate ongoing financial challenges.
