This amendment offers the first look at Fusion Five's audited financials, which carry a going concern warning, a net loss, and a shareholders' deficit. The pro forma combined statements show that the acquisition will layer on substantial goodwill and deepen LQR's net loss, partly funded by $40 million in new debt. With a total price tag of up to $126.88 million for a company generating minimal revenue and facing a going concern risk, the deal's value comes into question.
