SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED JULY 17, 2026
PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS
ALPHA MODUS HOLDINGS, INC.
4,000,000 Shares of Common Stock
This prospectus relates to the offer and sale from time to time by the Selling Securityholder (as hereinafter defined) of up to 4,000,000 shares of Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc. (“Alpha Modus” or the “Company”) Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“common stock”), consisting of: (i) up to 3,550,000 shares of Class A common stock issuable to Streeterville Capital, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (the “Selling Securityholder” or the “Investor”) under one or more Secured Pre-Paid Purchases in the aggregate purchase amount of up to $10,000,000 for the purchase of common stock (each a “Pre-Paid Purchase” and collectively the “Pre-Paid Purchases,” and such shares issuable under the Pre-Paid Purchases the “Pre-Paid Purchase Shares”), and (ii) 450,000 shares of common stock that constitute pre-delivery shares (the “Pre-Delivery Shares”) issued to the Selling Securityholder.
We are registering the offer and sale of these securities to satisfy registration rights we have granted to the Selling Securityholder. The Selling Securityholder may offer, sell or distribute all or a portion of the securities hereby registered publicly or through private transactions at prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. We will not receive any of the proceeds from such sales of the shares of our common stock. We will bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of these securities, including with regard to compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws. The Selling Securityholder will bear all commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to their sale of shares of our common stock. See section entitled “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 73 of this prospectus. The Selling Securityholder and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of our common stock may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
The resale of shares of our common stock pursuant to this prospectus could have a significant negative impact on the trading price of our common stock. This impact may be heightened by the fact that the Selling Securityholder will be acquiring shares of our common stock at prices below the trading price of our common stock at the time of acquisition. The 4,000,000 shares that may be resold and/or issued into the public markets pursuant to this prospectus represent approximately 47.5% of the shares of our common stock outstanding as of July 10, 2026, after giving effect to the issuance of the Pre-Paid Purchase Shares.
Our common stock and public warrants are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “AMOD” and “AMODW,” respectively. As of July 10, 2026, the closing price of our common stock and warrants was $4.16 and $0.0285, respectively.
We are an “emerging growth company” under applicable federal securities laws and will be subject to reduced public company reporting requirements.

In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “seek,” “target,” “designed to” or other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. We caution readers of this prospectus that these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control, that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding estimates and forecasts of financial and performance metrics, projections of market opportunity and market share, potential benefits and the commercial attractiveness to our customers of our products and services, the potential success of our marketing and expansion strategies, the potential for us to achieve design awards and potential benefits of the Business Combination (including with respect to shareholder value). These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this prospectus, and on the current expectations of our management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including:
| ● | Alpha Modus’ inability to achieve or sustain profitability; | |
| ● | the viability of Alpha Modus’ intellectual property; | |
| ● | changes in applicable laws or regulations; | |
| ● | the possibility that Alpha Modus’ business may be adversely affected by economic, business, changing technology, evolving industry standards, and/or competitive factors; | |
| ● | the ability of Alpha Modus to obtain, maintain, and protect its intellectual property, and other risks related to enforcement of Alpha Modus’ intellectual property rights; | |
| ● | risks related to future market adoption of Alpha Modus’ technology; | |
| ● | risks related to Alpha Modus’ marketing and growth strategies; | |
| ● | the effects of competition on Alpha Modus’ future business; | |

| ● | Alpha Modus’ ability to execute its business plans and strategy; | |
| ● | other risks and uncertainties described in this prospectus, including those under the section entitled “Risk Factors.” |
If any of these risks materialize or any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that we presently do not know or that we currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect our expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this prospectus. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our assessments to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our assessment as of any date subsequent to the date of this prospectus. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. Actual results, performance or achievements may, and are likely to, differ materially, and potentially adversely, from any projections and forward-looking statements and the assumptions on which those forward-looking statements were based. There can be no assurance that the data contained herein is reflective of future performance to any degree. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a predictor of future performance as projected financial information and other information are based on estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to various significant risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

SUMMARY OF THE PROSPECTUS
This summary highlights selected information from this prospectus and does not contain all of the information that is important to you in making an investment decision. This summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information included in this prospectus. Before making your investment decision with respect to our securities, you should carefully read this entire prospectus, including the information under “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information and Other Data” and the financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.
The Company
Overview
Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc., through its operating subsidiaries, is a technology and intellectual property company focused on the development, protection, licensing, and commercialization of data-driven systems designed to enhance consumer engagement and decision-making within physical retail environments. The Company was founded in 2014 and is headquartered in Cornelius, North Carolina.
Alpha Modus’ core strategy centers on the creation, licensing and enforcement of a proprietary patent portfolio covering systems and methods for real-time monitoring, analysis, and response to consumer behavior at or near the point of purchase. The Company’s technology is designed to convert previously unstructured consumer interaction data into actionable insights using advanced analytics and artificial intelligence. These insights may be used to support personalized marketing, dynamic digital engagement, smart planograms, inventory management, and enhanced in-store customer assistance.
Although Alpha Modus’ audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, were prepared under the assumption that it would continue operations as a going concern, the report of its independent registered public accounting firm that accompanies its financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, contains a going concern qualification in which such firm expressed substantial doubt about Alpha Modus’ ability to continue as a going concern, based on its financial statements and results at that time, including its recurring losses from operations and net capital deficiency.
The mailing address of Alpha Modus’ principal executive office is 20311 Chartwell Center Dr., #1469, Cornelius, North Carolina, 28031, and its telephone number is (704) 252-5050.
Emerging Growth Company
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As such, we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the prices of our securities may be more volatile.
We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) ending December 31, 2026, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of the prior fiscal year’s second fiscal quarter; and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” shall have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.
Smaller Reporting Company
Additionally, we are a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (i) the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $250 million as of the prior June 30, or (ii) our annual revenues exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30.

Risk Factors Summary
You should consider all the information contained in this prospectus before making a decision to invest in our common stock or warrants. In particular, you should consider the risk factors described under “Risk Factors” beginning on page 7. Such risks include, but are not limited to, the following risks:
| ● | The number of shares of common stock that the Selling Securityholder can sell into the public markets pursuant to this prospectus may exceed our public float. As a result, the resale of shares of our common stock pursuant to this prospectus could have a significant negative impact on the trading price of our common stock. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus had net losses and negative cash flows from operating activities in the past, and it may not achieve or sustain profitability. | |
| ● | If Alpha Modus is unable to continue as a going concern, its securities will have little or no value. | |
| ● | The artificial intelligence (AI) technology market in which Alpha Modus participates is competitive. | |
| ● | If Alpha Modus fails to adapt to changes in the AI industry, its business may be harmed. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus may fail to protect its intellectual property rights and proprietary information. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus will likely become subject to intellectual property disputes. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus’ patent portfolio is subject to evolving legislation, regulations, and rules associated with patent law in the United States and other jurisdictions, which may adversely affect its business. | |
| ● | Patent litigation is inherently risky, and the USPTO, or other relevant patent offices, may either invalidate Alpha Modus’ patents or materially narrow the scope of their claims. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus may experience delays in successful enforcement and licensing of its patent portfolio. | |
| ● | Because Alpha Modus’ patents are expected to expire in 2034-2037, its continued operations beyond those dates will depend on its ability to obtain additional patents with later expiration dates. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus’ lack of patent enforcement and licensing experience could adversely affect its operations. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus will incur increased costs as a result of operating as a public company. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus’ management team has limited experience managing a Nasdaq-listed public company. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus is a “controlled company” under Nasdaq’s listing rules and can rely on exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus may issue additional shares of common or preferred stock, which would dilute the interests of stockholders and likely present other risks. | |
| ● | We may amend the terms of our Public Warrants in a manner that may be adverse to holders of Public Warrants without the approval of all holders. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus may redeem unexpired Public Warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to holders, thereby making Public Warrants worthless. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus may be subject to the excise tax included in the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 in connection with redemptions of our common stock after December 31, 2022. | |
| ● | We do not expect that we will pay dividends in the foreseeable future. | |
| ● | If Alpha Modus fails to develop or maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, it may not be able to accurately report its financial results or prevent financial fraud. | |
| ● | Future issuances of other debt securities and equity securities, may adversely affect the Company, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, and be dilutive to existing stockholders. | |
| ● | There can be no assurance that Alpha Modus will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq in the future. | |
| ● | The market price of Alpha Modus’s common stock may decline. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus’s failure to meet the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq could result in a delisting of its securities. | |
| ● | Alpha Modus is as an “emerging growth company” as well as a smaller reporting company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if the Company takes advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies or smaller reporting companies, this could make the Company’s securities less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare the Company’s performance with other public companies. | |
| ● | The future exercise of registration rights may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. |

RISK FACTORS
Investment in our securities involves risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to the other information included in this prospectus, including matters addressed in the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statement.” Please see the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information” in this prospectus. These risk factors are not exhaustive, and investors are encouraged to perform their own investigation with respect to our business, financial condition and prospects. We may face additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, which may also impair our business or financial condition. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information and Other Data,” the financial statements and notes to the financial statements included herein.
The resale of shares of our common stock pursuant to this prospectus could have a significant negative impact on the trading price of our common stock.
The resale of shares of our common stock pursuant to this prospectus could have a significant negative impact on the trading price of our common stock. The 4,000,000 shares that may be resold and/or issued into the public markets pursuant to this prospectus represent approximately 47.5% of the shares of our common stock outstanding as of July 10, 2026 (after giving effect to the issuance of the Pre-Paid Purchase Shares).
| Security | Purchase price | % of shares | Potential profit per share | |||
| Pre-Paid
Purchase Shares (3,550,000 shares) and Pre-Delivery Shares (450,000 shares) |
To be issued upon the Investor’s election to purchase common stock under a Pre-Paid Purchase (by applying a portion of the outstanding balance under the Pre-Paid Purchase to the purchase of common stock) at a purchase price equal to 90% multiplied by the lowest daily volume-weighted average price during the five trading days preceding the purchase notice, subject to a $0.81 per share floor price | 47.5% (after giving effect to the issuance of the Pre-Paid Purchase Shares) | Up to $0.42 per share (not including profit from the original issue discount, interest, and other fees due to the Investor under a Pre-Paid Purchase) |

Unless otherwise noted, assumes no issuance of Earnout Shares, or shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants, Private Warrants, or other outstanding warrants.
The Selling Securityholder will determine the timing, pricing and rate at which they sell such shares into the public market. Sales by the Selling Securityholder may cause the trading prices of our securities to experience a further decline.
Risks Related to Alpha Modus’ Business and Industry
Alpha Modus had net and operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities in the past, and it may not achieve or sustain profitability.
Alpha Modus had a net loss of 8,021,235, and net cash used in operating activities of $3,210,182, in 2025, and net income of $4,103,067 and net cash used in operating activities of $1,676,499, in 2024. Alpha Modus cannot assure you that it will be able to generate net profit or positive cash flows from operating activities in the future. Its future revenue growth and profitability will depend on a variety of factors, many of which are beyond its control. These factors include effectiveness of its monetization strategy, its ability to control costs and expenses and to manage its growth effectively, market competition, and the macroeconomic and regulatory environment. Alpha Modus may fail to develop and improve its operational, financial and managerial controls, enhance its financial reporting systems and procedures, recruit, train and retain skilled professional personnel, or maintain customer satisfaction to effectively support and manage its future growth. If Alpha Modus invests substantial time and resources to expand its patent family but fails to manage the growth of its business and capitalize on its growth opportunities effectively, it may not be able to achieve profitability, and its business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects would be materially and adversely affected.
If Alpha Modus is unable to continue as a going concern, its securities will have little or no value.
Although Alpha Modus’ audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, were prepared under the assumption that it would continue our operations as a going concern, the reports of its independent registered public accounting firm that accompanies its financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, contain a going concern qualification in which such firms expressed substantial doubt about Alpha Modus’ ability to continue as a going concern, based on its financial statements and results at that time, including its recurring losses from operations and net capital deficiency.
Alpha Modus expects to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses in 2026. Alpha Modus’ prior losses and expected future losses have had, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on its financial condition. In addition, continued operations and Alpha Modus’ ability to continue as a going concern may be dependent on its ability to obtain additional financing in the near future and thereafter, and there are no assurances that such financing will be available to it at all or will be available in sufficient amounts or on reasonable terms. Alpha Modus’ financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If Alpha Modus is unable to generate sufficient additional funds in the future through operations, financings or from other sources or transactions, it will exhaust its resources and will be unable to continue operations. If it cannot continue as a going concern, its shareholders would likely lose most or all of their investment in it.

The artificial intelligence (AI) technology market in which Alpha Modus participates is competitive, and if it does not compete effectively, its business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed.
The AI market is competitive and rapidly evolving. The principal competitive factors in Alpha Modus’ market include research and development capabilities, industry know-how, continuous capital investment, product portfolio, among others. Many of Alpha Modus’ competitors have substantial competitive advantages, including larger scale, longer operating history, greater brand recognition, more established relationships with customers, suppliers and partners, and greater financial, research and development, marketing and other resources. As a result, Alpha Modus’ competitors may be able to respond more quickly and effectively than Alpha Modus can to new or changing opportunities, technologies, standards or customer requirements. In addition, some competitors may offer products, solutions and services that address one or more number of functions with greater depth, application, or functionality greater than Alpha Modus’ solutions and technologies. Alpha Modus’ existing and potential competitors may develop and market new products, solutions and services with functionality comparable to it. If Alpha Modus is unable to compete successfully against its current or potential competitors, its business, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely impacted.
If Alpha Modus fails to adapt and respond effectively to rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, changing regulations, and changing customer needs, requirements or preferences, its business may be materially and adversely affected.
The AI industry market is subject to rapid technological changes, evolving industry standards, regulations and customer needs, requirements and preferences. The success of Alpha Modus’ business will depend, in part, on its ability to adapt and respond to these changes on an effective and timely basis. If it fails to improve its technologies in a way that satisfies potential users or customers of intellectual property that keep pace with rapid technological and industry changes, its business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected. If new technologies emerge that are able to deliver competitive products, solutions and services at lower prices, more efficiently, more conveniently or more securely, such technologies could adversely impact Alpha Modus’ ability to compete effectively.
Issues arising in connection with the use of AI in the market generally may result in reputational harm or liability to Alpha Modus.
As with many disruptive innovations, AI presents risks and challenges that could affect its adoption, and therefore Alpha Modus’ business. AI algorithms may be flawed. Datasets may be insufficient or contain biased information. Inappropriate or controversial data practices could impair the acceptance of AI solutions. These deficiencies could undermine the decisions, predictions, or analysis AI applications produce, subjecting the providers of AI technologies generally, including Alpha Modus, to competitive harm, legal liability, and brand or reputational harm. Some AI scenarios present ethical or data privacy issues. If Alpha Modus enables or offers AI solutions that are controversial because of their impact on human rights, privacy, employment, or other social issues, it may experience brand or reputational harm.
Risks Related to Alpha Modus’ Intellectual Property
Alpha Modus may fail to obtain, maintain, and protect its intellectual property rights and proprietary information or prevent third parties from any unauthorized use of its technologies.
Alpha Modus’ trade secrets, trademarks, patents, and other intellectual property rights are critical to its success. Alpha Modus expects to rely on confidentiality agreements and non-compete agreements with third parties to protect its intellectual properties. However, events beyond its control may pose threats to its intellectual property rights and the integrity of its technologies and brand. Effective protection of Alpha Modus’ intellectual property rights is expensive and challenging. While Alpha Modus has taken measures to protect its intellectual property rights by filing patent applications, pursuing patent prosecution, and obtaining patents in the United States, such efforts are inadequate to guard against and prohibit potential infringement and misappropriation. In addition, Alpha Modus’ intellectual property rights may be declared invalid or unenforceable by the courts. Furthermore, Alpha Modus cannot assure you that any of its pending patent or other intellectual property rights applications will ultimately proceed to registration or will result in registration with adequate scope for its business. Some of Alpha Modus’ applications or registrations may be successfully challenged or invalidated by others. If Alpha Modus’ intellectual property rights applications are not successful, it may have to use different intellectual property rights for its affected technologies, or seek to enter into arrangements with any third parties who may have prior registrations, applications or rights, which might not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. If Alpha Modus fails to protect or enforce its intellectual property rights, its competitors may use its technologies without authorization. As a result, future customers and partners could then devalue Alpha Modus’ technologies, and Alpha Modus’ ability to compete effectively may be impaired, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.
Alpha Modus will likely become subject to intellectual property disputes, which are typically costly and may subject us to significant liability and increased costs of business.
Alpha Modus competes in markets where there are a large number of patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and other intellectual and proprietary rights, as well as disputes regarding infringement of these rights. Alpha Modus intends to enforce its patent rights by bringing legal claims against other parties, and its competitors and other third parties may, whether rightly or falsely, bring legal claims against it for infringing on their intellectual property rights. The intellectual property laws in the United States, which cover the validity, enforceability and scope of protection of intellectual property rights, are evolving, and litigation is a popular means to resolve commercial disputes. Any intellectual property lawsuits against Alpha Modus, whether successful or not, may harm our brand and reputation.
Prosecuting and defending intellectual property claims is costly and can impose a significant burden on our management and resources. Any intellectual property litigation to which Alpha Modus becomes a party may require it to do one or more of the following:
| ● | cease selling, licensing, or using products or features that incorporate the intellectual property rights that Alpha Modus allegedly infringes, misappropriates, or violates; | |
| ● | make substantial payments for legal fees, settlement payments, or other costs or damages, including indemnification of third parties; | |
| ● | obtain a license or enter into a royalty agreement, either of which may not be available on reasonable terms or at all, in order to obtain the right to sell or use the relevant intellectual property; or | |
| ● | redesign the allegedly infringing products or services to avoid infringement, misappropriation, or violation, which could be costly, time-consuming, or impossible. |
Further, there is no guarantee that Alpha Modus can obtain favorable judgment in its legal cases, in which case it may need to pay damages or be forced to cease using certain intellectual property that is critical to our technology or service offerings. Any resulting liabilities or expenses or required changes to technologies may have a material adverse effect on Alpha Modus’ business, results of operations, and prospects.

Alpha Modus’ intellectual property business is reliant on the strength of is patent portfolios and is subject to evolving legislation, regulations, and rules associated with patent law, which may adversely affect its business.
The success of Alpha Modus’ intellectual property business is heavily dependent on obtaining and enforcing patents. Patent acquisition and enforcement is costly, time-consuming, and inherently uncertain. Obtaining and enforcing patents across various industries, including the artificial intelligence industry, involves a high degree of technological and legal complexity. Alpha Modus’ patent rights may be affected by developments or uncertainty in U.S. or foreign patent statutes, patent case law, U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) rules and regulations and the rules and regulations of foreign patent offices. In addition, the United States may, at any time, enact changes to U.S. patent law and regulations, including by legislation, by regulatory rulemaking, or by judicial precedent, that adversely affect the scope of patent protection available and weaken the rights of patent owners to obtain patents, enforce against patent infringement and obtain injunctions and/or damages. For example, over the past several years, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and the Supreme Court issued various opinions, and the USPTO modified its guidance for practitioners on multiple occasions, either narrowing the scope of patent protection available in certain circumstances or weakening the rights of patent owners in certain situations. Other countries may likewise enact changes to their patent laws in ways that adversely diminish the scope of patent protection and weaken the rights of patent owners to obtain patents, enforce against patent infringement, and obtain injunctions and/or damages. In addition to increasing uncertainty with regard to Alpha Modus’ ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to the value of patents, once obtained. Alpha Modus cannot predict the breadth of claims that may be allowed or enforced in its patents or in third-party patents, and whether Congress or other foreign legislative bodies may pass patent reform legislation that is unfavorable to it, which may, in turn, affect the value of its patent assets.
Further, the United States and other governments may, at any time, enact changes to law and regulation that create new avenues for challenging the validity of issued patents. For example, the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act (described in more detail in the following risk factor) created new administrative post-grant proceedings, including post-grant review, inter-partes review, and derivation proceedings that allow third parties to challenge the validity of issued patents. This applies to all of Alpha Modus’ patents. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in U.S. federal courts necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient for the USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a district court action. In addition to increasing uncertainty with regard to Alpha Modus’ ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to the value of patents, once obtained. Depending on decisions by the U.S. Congress, the federal courts, and the USPTO, the laws and regulations governing patents could change in unpredictable ways that could weaken Alpha Modus’ ability to obtain new patents or to enforce its existing patents and patents that it might obtain in the future.
Additionally, new rules regarding the burden of proof in patent enforcement actions could significantly increase the cost of Alpha Modus’ enforcement actions, and new standards or limitations on liability for patent infringement could negatively impact Alpha Modus’ revenue derived from such enforcement actions. In addition, recent federal court decisions have lowered the threshold for obtaining attorneys’ fees in patent infringement cases and increased the level of deference given to a district court’s fee-shifting determination. These decisions may make it easier for district courts to shift a prevailing party’s attorneys’ fees to a non-prevailing party if the district court believes that the case was weak or conducted in an abusive manner. As a result, defendants in patent infringement actions brought by non-practicing entities may elect not to settle because these decisions make it much easier for defendants to get attorneys’ fees.
Finally, it is difficult to predict the outcome of patent enforcement litigation at the trial level and outcomes can be unfavorable. It can be difficult to understand complex patented technologies, and as a result, this may lead to a higher rate of unfavorable litigation outcomes. Moreover, in the event of a favorable outcome, there is often a higher rate of successful appeals in patent enforcement litigation than more standard business litigation. Such appeals are expensive and time consuming, resulting in increased costs and a potential for delayed or foregone revenue opportunities in the event of modification or reversal of favorable outcomes. Although Alpha Modus plans to diligently pursue enforcement litigation, it cannot predict with reliability the decisions that may made by juries and trial courts.
Changes to patent laws in the United States and other jurisdictions could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing Alpha Modus’ ability to protect its product or its current or future product candidates.
Alpha Modus’ success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents is costly, time consuming and inherently uncertain. Patent reform legislation in the United States and other countries, including the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act (the “Leahy-Smith Act”), contributes to those uncertainties and costs. The Leahy-Smith Act includes a number of significant changes to U.S. patent law. These include provisions that have affected the way patent applications are prosecuted and have redefined prior art and provided more efficient and cost-effective avenues for competitors to challenge the validity of patents. In addition, the Leahy-Smith Act has transformed the U.S. patent system into a first-to-file system in which, assuming that other requirements of patentability are met, the first inventor to file a patent application will be entitled to the patent regardless of whether a third party was first to invent the claimed invention. A third party that has filed a patent application in the USPTO after March 2013 but before Alpha Modus could therefore be awarded a patent covering an invention of Alpha Modus even if Alpha Modus had made the invention before it was made by such third party. This requires Alpha Modus or its licensees to be cognizant of the time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, Alpha Modus’ ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents depends on whether the differences between its technology and the prior art allow its technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patent applications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing or until issuance, Alpha Modus cannot be certain that it was the first to either (i) file any patent application related to its product or product candidates, or (ii) invent any of the inventions claimed in its patents or patent applications. Even where Alpha Modus has a valid and enforceable patent, Alpha Modus or its licensees may not be able to exclude others from practicing the claimed invention where the other party can show that they used the invention in commerce before our filing date or the other party benefits from a compulsory license.
Among some of the other changes introduced by the Leahy-Smith Act are changes that (i) affect the way patent applications are prosecuted, (ii) redefine prior art, and (iii) provide more efficient and cost-effective avenues for competitors to challenge the validity of patents. These include changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suit and provide new opportunities for third parties to challenge issued patents in the USPTO. Alpha Modus or its licensees may be subject to the risk of third-party prior art submissions on pending applications or become a party to opposition, derivation, reexamination, inter partes review, post-grant review or interference proceedings challenging our patents. There is a lower standard of evidence necessary to invalidate a patent claim in a USPTO proceeding relative to the standard in U.S. district or federal court. This could lead third parties to challenge and successfully invalidate Alpha Modus or its licensees’ patents that would not otherwise be invalidated if challenged through the court system. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate Alpha Modus or its licensees’ patent claims that would not have been invalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action. Thus, the Leahy-Smith Act and its implementation increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of Alpha Modus or its future licensees’ patent applications and the enforcement or defense of Alpha Modus’ issued patents, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Additionally, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled on several patent cases in recent years, either narrowing the scope of patent protection available in certain circumstances or weakening the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition, there have been recent proposals for additional changes to the patent laws of the United States and other countries that, if adopted, could impact Alpha Modus or its licensees’ ability to obtain or maintain patent protection for Alpha Modus or its out-licensed proprietary technology or Alpha Modus’ or its licensees’ ability to enforce Alpha Modus or its out-licensed proprietary technology, respectively. Depending on future actions by the U.S. Congress, the U.S. courts, the USPTO and the relevant law-making bodies in other countries, the laws and regulations governing patents could change in unpredictable ways that would weaken Alpha Modus’ ability to obtain new patents; enforce or shorten the term of Alpha Modus or its licensees’ existing patents and patents that might be obtained in the future; shorten the term that has been lengthened by patent term adjustment of existing patents or patents that Alpha Modus might obtain in the future; or challenge the validity or enforceability of Alpha Modus patents that may be asserted against Alpha Modus by competitors or other third parties. Any of these outcomes could have a material adverse effect on Alpha Modus’ business. For example, with respect to patent term adjustment, the Federal Circuit’s recent holding in In re Cellect, LLC, 81 F.4th 1216 (Fed. Cir. 2023), that obviousness-type double patent analysis for a patent that has received patent term adjustment must be based on the expiration date of the patent after the patent term adjustment has been added, may negatively impact the term of Alpha Modus’ patents.
Finally, Europe’s Unitary Patent system and Unified Patent Court (the “UPC”) may present uncertainties for Alpha Modus’ ability to protect and enforce patent rights against competitors in Europe. In 2012, the European Patent Package (the “EU Patent Package”), regulations were passed with the goal of providing a single pan-European Unitary Patent system and a new UPC for litigation involving European patents. Implementation of the EU Patent Package occurred in June 2023. Under the UPC, all European patents, including those issued prior to ratification of the European Patent Package, will by default automatically fall under the jurisdiction of the UPC. The UPC will provide Alpha Modus’ competitors with a new forum to centrally revoke European patents and allow for the possibility of a competitor to obtain pan-European injunctions. It will be several years before Alpha Modus will understand the scope of patent rights that will be recognized and the strength of patent remedies that will be provided by the UPC. Under the EU Patent Package, Alpha Modus will have the right to opt patents out of the UPC over the first seven years of the court’s existence, but doing so may preclude Alpha Modus from realizing the benefits of the new unified court.
Patent litigation is inherently risky because courts may find Alpha Modus’ patents invalid, not infringed, or unenforceable, and the USPTO, or other relevant patent office, may either invalidate Alpha Modus’ patents or materially narrow the scope of their claims during the course of a reexamination, opposition or other such proceeding.
Patent litigation is inherently risky and may result in the invalidation of Alpha Modus’ patents, even if it is the plaintiff in an underlying action. It is difficult to predict the outcome of patent enforcement litigation at any level. Although Alpha Modus intends to diligently pursue enforcement litigation, it cannot predict with significant reliability the decisions made by juries and trial courts. At the trial level, it is often difficult for juries and trial judges to understand complex, patented technologies, and as a result, there is a higher rate of successful appeals in patent enforcement litigation than more standard business litigation.
The defendant to any case Alpha Modus brings may file as many appeals as allowed by right, including to District Court, the Federal Circuit and the Supreme Court. Such appeals are expensive and time-consuming, and the outcomes of such appeals are sometimes unpredictable, resulting in increased costs and reduced or delayed revenue which could have a material adverse effect on Alpha Modus’ results of operations and financial condition. These appeals may also result in the invalidation of Alpha Modus’ patents, which may have an adverse impact on Alpha Modus’ operations and financial performance.
The enforcement of Alpha Modus’ intellectual property rights depends in part upon its ability to retain the best legal counsel in order to achieve favorable outcomes from litigation, and Alpha Modus’ desired legal counsel may become conflicted out of such representation.
The success of Alpha Modus’ intellectual property enforcement efforts will depend in part upon its ability to retain the best legal counsel to coordinate its patent infringement litigation matters. As Alpha Modus’ intellectual property business evolves, Alpha Modus expects that it will become more difficult to find the best legal counsel to handle all of its patent enforcement matters due in part to potential conflicts of interest. This is because, from time to time, the counterparties to litigation matters have previously engaged world class law firms that are specialized in connection with the industries of the patents at issue in such matters. These previous engagements may have, or may in the future, result in these firms being conflicted out of representing us.
In addition, counterparties in Alpha Modus’ patent litigation matters may devote a substantial amount of resources to avoid or limit a finding that they are liable for infringing on Alpha Modus’ patents or, in the event liability is found, to avoid or limit the amount of associated damages. There is a risk these counterparties may file inter-partes reviews, reexaminations or other proceedings with the USPTO or other government agencies in the United States or abroad in an attempt to invalidate, narrow the scope or render unenforceable the patents Alpha Modus owns or controls. If this were to occur, it may have a significant negative impact on Alpha Modus’ intellectual property.
The inability to retain the best legal counsel to represent Alpha Modus in infringement actions may result in unfavorable or adverse outcomes, which may result in losses, exhaustion of financial resources or other adverse effects which could encumber Alpha Modus’ ability to effectively operate its business or execute its business strategy. Alpha Modus cannot provide any assurance that any prospective patent prosecution or litigation matters will result in a favorable outcome.
Alpha Modus may experience delays in successful prosecution, enforcement, and licensing of its patent portfolio.
The value of Alpha Modus’ patent portfolios is dependent upon the issuance of patents in a timely manner. More patent applications are filed each year. Alpha Modus believes this increase in patent applications has resulted in longer delays in obtaining approval of pending patent applications. If the USPTO experiences reductions in funding, it could have an adverse impact on the cost of processing pending patent applications and the value of those pending patent applications, negatively impacting the value of Alpha Modus’ patent applications. Further, reductions in funding from Congress could result in higher patent application filing and maintenance fees charged by the USPTO, causing an increase in Alpha Modus’ expenses. Application delays could cause delays in recognizing revenue from these patents and could cause Alpha Modus to miss opportunities to license patents before other competing technologies are developed or introduced into the market.
After prosecuting Alpha Modus’ patents, Alpha Modus’ intellectual property business can incur significant general and administrative and legal expenses prior to entering into license agreements and generating license revenues. Alpha Modus plans to spend considerable resources educating prospective licensees on the benefits of a license arrangement with it. As such, Alpha Modus may incur significant losses in any particular period before any associated revenue stream begins.
| 10 |
Alpha Modus believes that it will frequently be engaged in litigation to enforce its patents, protect its trade secrets, or determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Enforcement proceedings are typically protracted and complex. The costs are typically substantial, and the outcomes are unpredictable. Enforcement actions divert managerial, technical, legal and financial resources from business operations, and there are no assurances that such enforcement actions will result in favorable results for Alpha Modus.
Patent litigation schedules in general, and in particular trial dates, are subject to routine adjustment, and in most cases delay, as courts adjust their calendars or respond to requests from one or more parties. Trial dates often are rescheduled by the court for various reasons that are often unrelated to the underlying patent assets and typically for reasons that are beyond our control. As a result, to the extent such events are an indicator of possible future revenue opportunities for Alpha Modus, or other outcome determinative events, they may and often do change which can result in delay of the expected scheduled event. Any such delay could be significant and could affect the corresponding future revenue opportunities, thus adversely impacting Alpha Modus’ business, results of operations and financial condition.
Further, federal courts are becoming more crowded, and as a result, patent enforcement litigation is taking longer. Alpha Modus’ anticipated patent enforcement actions are expected to be almost exclusively prosecuted in federal court. Federal trial courts that hear patent enforcement actions also hear criminal cases. Criminal cases tend to take priority over patent enforcement actions. As a result, it is difficult to predict the length of time it will take to complete an enforcement action. Moreover, Alpha Modus believes there is a trend in increasing numbers of civil lawsuits and criminal proceedings before federal judges, and, as a result, it believes that the risk of delays in patent enforcement actions will have a greater negative effect on Alpha Modus’ business in the future unless this trend changes.
Because Alpha Modus’ patents are expected to expire in 2034-2037, its continued operations beyond those dates will depend on its ability to obtain additional patents with later expiration dates.
Alpha Modus’ current patents are expected to expire in 2034-2037. If Alpha Modus does not obtain patents or other intellectual property with expiration dates that extend beyond those years, its operations would be adversely affected.
Alpha Modus’ lack of patent enforcement and licensing experience could adversely affect its operations.
Alpha Modus has limited patent enforcement experience and cannot provide any assurance that it will be able to effectively manage patent enforcement efforts. Patent enforcement litigation is complex and needs to be closely and carefully managed. Because Alpha Modus does not have experience in managing patent enforcement efforts, it may not do so effectively, and its enforcement efforts could be harmed as a result. Similarly, Alpha Modus has limited experience managing intellectual property licensing programs, and this lack of experience could impair its ability to execute its business plans.
Alpha Modus may not be able to protect its intellectual property rights throughout the world.
Filing, prosecuting, and defending patents in all countries throughout the world would be prohibitively expensive, and intellectual property rights in some countries outside the United States could be less extensive than those in the United States. Alpha Modus may not choose, or be able, to obtain patent protection outside the United States. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as federal and state laws in the United States, even in jurisdictions where Alpha Modus does pursue patent protection. Consequently, Alpha Modus may not be able to prevent third parties from practicing its intellectual property in all countries outside the United States, even in jurisdictions where it does pursue patent protection.
Competitors may use Alpha Modus’ technologies in jurisdictions where it has not pursued and obtained patent protection and, further, may export otherwise infringing products to territories where Alpha Modus has patent protection, but enforcement is not as strong as that in the United States. These products may compete with Alpha Modus’ technologies. Alpha Modus’ patents or other intellectual property rights may not be effective or sufficient to prevent them from competing.
Many companies have encountered significant problems in protecting and defending intellectual property rights in foreign jurisdictions. The legal systems of certain countries, particularly certain developing countries, do not favor the enforcement of patents, trade secrets, and other intellectual property protection, particularly those relating to technology products, which could make it difficult for Alpha Modus to stop infringement of its intellectual property. Proceedings to enforce patent rights in foreign jurisdictions could result in substantial costs and divert Alpha Modus’ efforts and attention from other aspects of its business, could put its patents at risk of being invalidated or interpreted narrowly and patent applications at risk of not issuing, and could provoke third parties to assert claims against it. Alpha Modus may not prevail in any lawsuits that it initiates, and the damages or other remedies awarded, if any, may not be commercially meaningful. Accordingly, Alpha Modus’ efforts to enforce intellectual property rights around the world may be inadequate to obtain a significant commercial advantage from its intellectual property.
Many countries have compulsory licensing laws under which a patent owner may be compelled to grant licenses to third parties. In addition, many countries limit the enforceability of patents against government agencies or government contractors. In these countries, the patent owner may have limited remedies, which could materially diminish the value of such patent. If Alpha Modus is forced to grant a license to third parties with respect to any of its patents, its competitive position may be impaired, and its business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects may be adversely affected.
Risks Related to Being a Public Company
Alpha Modus is incurring increased costs as a result of operating as a public company, and its management will devote substantial time to compliance with its public company responsibilities and corporate governance practices.
Alpha Modus incurring significant legal, accounting and other expenses that it did not incur as a private company, and these expenses may increase even more after Alpha Modus is no longer an emerging growth company, as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act. As a public company, Alpha Modus will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and the Dodd-Frank Act, as well as rules adopted, and to be adopted, by the SEC and Nasdaq, and other applicable securities rules and regulations, which impose various requirements on public companies, including the establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls and changes in corporate governance practices. Alpha Modus’ management and other personnel need to devote a substantial amount of time to these public company requirements. Moreover, these rules and regulations substantially increase its legal and financial compliance costs and make some activities more time-consuming and costly. These increased costs increase Alpha Modus’ net loss. Alpha Modus may need to hire additional legal, accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge and maintain an internal audit function.
| 11 |
In addition, changing laws, regulations, and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure are creating uncertainty for public companies, increasing legal and financial compliance costs, and making some activities more time consuming. These laws, regulations, and standards are subject to varying interpretations and may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. Alpha Modus intends to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations, and standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management’s time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If Alpha Modus’s efforts to comply with new laws, regulations, and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to their application and practice, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against Alpha Modus and its business may be adversely affected.
The rules and regulations applicable to public companies make it more expensive for Alpha Modus to obtain and maintain director and officer liability insurance, and Alpha Modus may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage. These factors could also make it more difficult for Alpha Modus to attract and retain qualified members of its board of directors, particularly to serve on Alpha Modus’s audit committee and compensation committee, and qualified executive officers. The impact of these requirements could also make it more difficult for Alpha Modus to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on its board of directors, its board committees or as executive officers.
Alpha Modus’ management team has limited experience managing a Nasdaq-listed public company.
Alpha Modus’ management team has limited experience managing a Nasdaq-listed public company, interacting with public company investors and complying with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to exchange-listed public companies. Alpha Modus’ management team may not successfully or efficiently manage their roles and responsibilities. Alpha Modus’ transition to being a public company subjects it to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under the federal securities laws and the continuous scrutiny of securities analysts and investors. These obligations and constituents require significant attention from Alpha Modus’ senior management and could divert their attention away from the day-to-day management of Alpha Modus’ business, which could adversely affect Alpha Modus’ business, financial condition, and operating results.
If we were deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), we may be required to liquidate the Company.
There is currently uncertainty concerning the applicability of the Investment Company Act to a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”), and we, as a former SPAC, may in the future be subject to a claim that we have been operating as an unregistered investment company. If we are deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, we may be required to liquidate. If we are required to liquidate, our investors would not be able to realize the benefits of owning stock in a successor operating business, including the potential appreciation in the value of our stock and warrants following such a transaction, and our warrants would expire worthless.

Upon closing our initial IPO in September 2021, the net proceeds of the IPO and of a private offering of warrants were placed in a trust account located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and invested only in U.S. “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invested only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the trust account as described below. The longer that the funds in the trust account were held in short-term U.S. government securities or in money market funds invested exclusively in such securities, the greater the risk that we may be considered an unregistered investment company, in which case we would be required to register as an investment company with the SEC.
Alpha Modus is a “controlled company” within the meaning of the listing rules of Nasdaq and, as a result, can rely on exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that provide protection to shareholders of other companies.
Alpha Modus’ CEO, William Alessi, is deemed to beneficially own or control approximately 72.2% of Alpha Modus’s common stock as of July 10, 2026. As a result, Alpha Modus would be deemed to be a “controlled company” as defined under the listing rules of Nasdaq. Under Nasdaq listing rules, controlled companies are companies of which more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors is held by an individual, a group, or another company. For as long as Alpha Modus remains a controlled company, Alpha Modus will be permitted to elect to rely on certain exemptions from Nasdaq’s corporate governance rules, including the following:
| ● | an exemption from the rule that a majority of its board of directors must be independent directors; | |
| ● | an exemption from the rule that its compensation committee be composed entirely of independent directors; | |
| ● | an exemption from the rule that its director nominees must be selected or recommended solely by independent directors or a nominating committee composed solely of independent directors; |
Although Alpha Modus does not currently intend for Alpha Modus to rely on the “controlled company” exemptions to Nasdaq’s corporate governance rules, Alpha Modus could elect to rely on these exemptions in the future. If it elected to rely on those “controlled company” exemptions, a majority of the members of Alpha Modus’s board of directors might not be independent directors, its nominating and corporate governance and compensation committees might not consist entirely of independent directors, and you would not have the same protection afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of Nasdaq’s corporate governance rules.
Alpha Modus may issue additional shares of common or preferred stock, which would dilute the interests of stockholders and likely present other risks.
Alpha Modus may issue additional shares of common or preferred stock for financing or other reasons. The issuance of additional shares of common or preferred stock:
| ● | may significantly dilute the equity interest of existing investors; | |
| ● | may subordinate the rights of holders of common stock if preferred stock is issued with rights senior to those afforded to holders of common stock; | |
| ● | could cause a change in control if a substantial number of common stock is issued, which may affect, among other things, Alpha Modus’s ability to use its net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and could result in the resignation or removal of Alpha Modus’s present officers and directors; and | |
| ● | may adversely affect prevailing market prices for Alpha Modus’s common stock and/or warrants. |

We may amend the terms of our public warrants in a manner that may be adverse to holders of public warrants with the approval by the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding public warrants. As a result, the exercise price of public warrants could be increased, the exercise period could be shortened and the number of shares of our Class A common stock purchasable upon exercise of a warrant could be decreased, all without your approval.
Our Public Warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, but requires the approval by the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding public warrants to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders of public warrants. Accordingly, we may amend the terms of the public warrants in a manner adverse to a holder if holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding public warrants approve of such amendment. Although our ability to amend the terms of the public warrants with the consent of at least a majority of the then outstanding public warrants is unlimited, examples of such amendments could be amendments to, among other things, increase the exercise price of the warrants, convert the warrants into cash or stock, shorten the exercise period or decrease the number of shares of our Class A common stock purchasable upon exercise of a warrant.
Alpha Modus may redeem unexpired Public Warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your Public Warrants worthless.
Alpha Modus will have the ability to redeem outstanding Public Warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.4 per warrant, provided that the last reported sales price of Alpha Modus common stock equals or exceeds $720.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date Alpha Modus gives notice of redemption. If and when the Public Warrants become redeemable by Alpha Modus, Alpha Modus may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws. Redemption of the outstanding Public Warrants could force you (i) to exercise your Public Warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for you to do so, (ii) to sell your Public Warrants at the then-current market price when you might otherwise wish to hold your Public Warrants or (iii) to accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding Public Warrants are called for redemption, is likely to be substantially less than the market value of your Public Warrants. As of July 10, 2026, the sales price of the Class A common stock did not exceed the threshold that would allow Alpha Modus to redeem the Public Warrants. None of the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company so long as they are held by their initial purchasers or their permitted transferees.
We previously believed that we may have been subject to the Excise Tax included in the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 in connection with redemptions of our Common Stock after December 31, 2022. Based on final regulations released by the Treasury and IRS, we no longer believe that we are subject to the Excise Tax, but if that conclusion is not correct, we could be subject to the Excise Tax.
On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”), which, among other things, imposes a 1% excise tax on any publicly traded domestic corporation that repurchases its stock after December 31, 2022 (the “Excise Tax”). The Excise Tax is imposed on the fair market value of the repurchased stock, with certain exceptions. Because we are a Delaware corporation and because our securities trade on Nasdaq, we are a “covered corporation” within the meaning of the Inflation Reduction Act. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) was given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the Excise Tax.
On November 24, 2025, the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) issued final regulations under Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 4501 (Treasury Decision 10037). Under these final regulations, transition relief from the Excise Tax under Section 4501 is appropriate for certain types of stock issued prior to the date of enactment of the IRA if the covered corporation no longer has discretion as to whether to repurchase such stock after that date. These final regulations specifically incorporate transition relief for mandatorily redeemable stock and for stock subject by its terms to a unilateral put option of the holder, if such stock was outstanding prior to August 16, 2022.
While we previously believed that the Excise Tax may have applied to redemptions of our Class A common stock in connection with our Business Combination completed in 2024, based on the November 24, 2025, final regulations described above, we no longer believe the Excise Tax applies the Company’s prior common stock redemptions, since those redemptions occurred solely with respect to redeemable stock issued by the Company in its original IPO in September 2021, such that those redemptions are not treated as stock repurchases for purposes of IRC Section 4501 because that stock was outstanding prior to August 16, 2022. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2025, the Company’s financial statements reflect the removal of the Excise Tax liability of $2,348,302.
If our conclusions regarding the applicability of the transition relief provided by the November 24, 2025, final regulations described above are incorrect, we could still be subject to liability arising from the Excise Tax.
We do not expect that we will pay dividends in the foreseeable future.
We expect that we will retain most, if not all, of our available funds and any future earnings to fund our operations and the development and growth of our business. As a result, we do not expect that we will pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.
The Company’s board of directors will have complete discretion as to whether to distribute dividends. Even if the board of directors decides to declare and pay dividends, the timing, amount, and form of such dividends, if any, will depend on the future results of operations and cash flow, capital requirements and surplus, the amount of distributions, if any, received by the Company from its subsidiaries, the Company’s financial condition, contractual restrictions, and other factors deemed relevant by the board of directors. There is no guarantee that the shares of Company common stock will appreciate in value or that the trading price of the shares will not decline. Holders of the Company common stock should not rely on an investment in shares of common stock as a source for any future dividend income.
The existence of indemnification rights to the Company’s directors, officers, and employees may result in substantial expenditures by the Combined Company and may discourage lawsuits against its directors, officers, and employees.
The Amended and Restated Charter contains indemnification provisions obligating the Company to provide indemnification for its directors, officers, and employees in certain circumstances. Such indemnification obligations could result in the Company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against its directors, executive officers, and employees, which it may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage the Company from bringing a lawsuit against its directors and executive officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by its stockholders against its directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit the Company and its stockholders.
If the Company fails to develop or maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, it may not be able to accurately report its financial results or prevent financial fraud. As a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in its financial reporting.
The Company is subject to the risk that its independent registered public accounting firm could communicate to its board of directors that it has deficiencies in its internal control structure that they consider to be “significant deficiencies.” A “significant deficiency” is defined as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented or detected by the entity’s internal controls.
Effective internal control is necessary to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. If the Company cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, it could be subject to regulatory action or other litigation and its operating results could be harmed.
| 14 |
The Company’s intended business, operations, and accounting are expected to be substantially more complex than they have been to date. It may be time consuming, difficult, and costly for the Company to develop and implement the internal control and reporting procedures required by the Exchange Act. the Company may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal control, and other finance personnel in order to develop and implement appropriate internal control and reporting procedures. If the Company is unable to comply with the internal control over financial reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, then it may not be able to obtain the required independent accountant certifications, which may preclude it from keeping its filings current with the SEC.
Further, a material weakness in the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting could result in an increased chance of fraud and the loss of customers, reduce the Company’s ability to obtain financing, and require additional expenditures to comply with these requirements, each of which could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations, and financial condition.
If the Company is unable to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, including as applicable standards governing internal control are modified, supplemented, or amended from time to time, the Company may not be able to ensure that it can conclude on an ongoing basis that it has effective internal control over financial reporting. Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could cause the Company to face regulatory action and cause investors to lose confidence in its reported financial information, either of which could adversely affect the value of the Company common stock.
Risks Related to Ownership of Alpha Modus’s Shares
The Amended and Restated Charter requires, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that derivative actions brought in the Company’s name, as applicable, against their respective directors, officers, other employees or stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty and other similar actions may be brought only in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware, which may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against the Company’s directors, officers, other employees or stockholders, as applicable.
The Amended and Restated Charter requires, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that derivative actions brought in Alpha Modus’s name, as applicable, against their respective directors, officers, other employees or stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty and other similar actions may be brought only in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware or, if the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction, in the federal district court of the State of Delaware. This exclusive forum provision may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with Alpha Modus, or any of their respective directors, officers, other employees or stockholders, which may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims, although their respective stockholders will not be deemed to have waived their compliance with federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. However, there is no assurance that a court would enforce the choice of forum provision contained in the Amended and Restated Charter. If a court were to find such provision to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, Alpha Modus may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could harm their business, operating results and financial condition.
The Amended and Restated Charter provides that the exclusive forum provision will be applicable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. The Amended and Restated Charter also provides that to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the federal district courts of the United States will be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act.
The exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As a result, federal courts will have exclusive jurisdiction over suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, both state and federal courts have jurisdiction to entertain such claims. As noted above, the Amended and Restated Charter provides that the federal district courts of the United States will be, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action under the Securities Act. Due to the concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts created by Section 22 of the Securities Act over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce the exclusive form provision. Investors also cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.
Anti-takeover provisions contained in the Amended and Restated Charter and the Company’s Bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, could impair a takeover attempt.
The Amended and Restated Charter and the Company’s Bylaws contain provisions that could have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in control or changes in our management without the consent of our board of directors. These provisions include:
| ● | no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which limits the ability of minority stockholders to elect director candidates; | |
| ● | the exclusive right of our board of directors to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the board of directors or the resignation, death, or removal of a director with or without cause by stockholders, which prevents stockholders from being able to fill vacancies on our board of directors; | |
| ● | the ability of our board of directors to determine whether to issue shares of our preferred stock and to determine the price and other terms of those shares, including preferences and voting rights, without stockholder approval, which could be used to significantly dilute the ownership of a hostile acquirer; | |
| ● | a prohibition on stockholder action by written consent, which forces stockholder action to be taken at an annual or special meeting of our stockholders; | |
| ● | the requirement that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by the board of directors, which may delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or to take action, including the removal of directors; | |
| ● | limiting the liability of, and providing indemnification to, our directors and officers; | |
| ● | controlling the procedures for the conduct and scheduling of stockholder meetings; |
| 15 |
| ● | providing for a staggered board, in which the members of the board of directors are divided into three classes to serve for a period of three years from the date of their respective appointment or election; | |
| ● | granting the ability to remove directors with cause by the affirmative vote of 66 2∕3% in voting power of the outstanding shares of Alpha Modus common stock entitled to vote thereon; | |
| ● | requiring the affirmative vote of at least 66 2∕3% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Alpha Modus entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, to amend the Proposed Bylaws or certain sections of the Amended and Restated Charter; and | |
| ● | advance notice procedures that stockholders must comply with in order to nominate candidates to Alpha Modus Board or to propose matters to be acted upon at a stockholders’ meeting, which may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of Alpha Modus. |
These provisions, alone or together, could delay hostile takeovers and changes in control of Alpha Modus or changes in Alpha Modus Board and Alpha Modus’s management.
As a Delaware corporation, we are also subject to provisions of Delaware law, including Section 203 of the DGCL, which prevents some stockholders holding more than 15% of our outstanding common stock from engaging in certain business combinations without approval of the holders of substantially all of Alpha Modus common stock. Any provision of Amended and Restated Charter, the Proposed Bylaws or Delaware law that has the effect of delaying or deterring a change in control could limit the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of Alpha Modus common stock and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for Alpha Modus common stock.
Claims for indemnification by Alpha Modus’s directors and officers may reduce Alpha Modus’s available funds to satisfy successful third-party claims against Alpha Modus and may reduce the amount of money available to Alpha Modus.
The Company’s Bylaws provide that Alpha Modus will indemnify its directors and officers, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. In addition, as permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, the Bylaws and indemnification agreements that the Company has entered into with its directors and officers provide that:
| ● | Alpha Modus will indemnify its directors and officers for serving Alpha Modus in those capacities or for serving other business enterprises at its request, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that a corporation may indemnify such person if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the registrant and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful; | |
| ● | Alpha Modus may, in its discretion, indemnify employees and agents in those circumstances where indemnification is permitted by applicable law; | |
| ● | Alpha Modus will be required to advance expenses, as incurred, to its directors and officers in connection with defending a proceeding, except that such directors or officers shall undertake to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification; | |
| ● | Alpha Modus will not be obligated pursuant to its Proposed Bylaws to indemnify a person with respect to proceedings initiated by that person against Alpha Modus or its other indemnitees, except with respect to proceedings authorized by its board of directors or brought to enforce a right to indemnification; and | |
| ● | the rights conferred in the Proposed Bylaws are not exclusive, and Alpha Modus is authorized to enter into indemnification agreements with its directors, officers, employees and agents and to obtain insurance to indemnify such persons. |
If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about Alpha Modus, its business, or its market, or if they change their recommendations regarding Alpha Modus’s securities adversely, the price and trading volume of Alpha Modus’s securities could decline.
The trading market for Alpha Modus’s securities will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about Alpha Modus, its business, market or competitors. Securities and industry analysts do not currently, to the knowledge of management, and may never, publish research on Alpha Modus. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of Alpha Modus, Alpha Modus’s share price and trading volume would likely be negatively impacted. If any of the analysts who may cover Alpha Modus change their recommendation regarding Alpha Modus common stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about Alpha Modus’s competitors, the price of shares of Alpha Modus common stock would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover Alpha Modus were to cease coverage of Alpha Modus or fail to regularly publish reports on it, Alpha Modus could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause its share price or trading volume to decline.
Our issuances of debt securities and equity securities may adversely affect us, including the market price of the Company’s common stock and be dilutive to existing stockholders.
Although we currently have no shares of preferred stock outstanding, we are authorized to issue shares of Series C Preferred Stock, or other shares of preferred stock in the future. Any such shares of Series C Preferred Stock may convert into shares of common stock at an effective conversion price less than the then-current trading price of the common stock at the time of conversion. Conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock into common Stock would be dilutive to existing stockholders and may reduce the market price of common stock. For example, if there has never been a Trigger Event (as defined below), any such shares of Series C Preferred Stock, which will have a deemed face value of $10.00 per share (the “Face Value”) will convert into shares of common stock at the lesser of the Face Value or the average of the 5 lowest closing prices of common stock during the 10 trading days preceding conversion. However, following any Trigger Event, such conversion shall be at the lesser of the Face Value or 50.0% of the average of the lowest closing prices during the 10 trading days preceding conversion. “Trigger Event” generally means (i) the Company’s failure to deliver conversion shares when required; (ii) violation of or failure to timely perform any covenant in the designation of the rights of the Series C Preferred Stock; (iii) suspension from trading or delisting from the Company’s principal trading exchange or market; (iv) notification of an intention not to comply with a conversion notice; (v) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation or similar proceedings; (vi) the appointment of a custodian, receiver or similar official for the Company; (vii) judgments in excess of $500,000 which are not stayed or satisfied within 30 days of entry; (viii) failure to comply with reporting requirements of Securities Exchange Act; (ix) any regulatory, administrative or enforcement proceeding is initiated against the Company; or (x) any material provision of the designation of the rights of the Series C Preferred Stock ceases to be valid or is contested.
| 16 |
Shares of Series C Preferred Stock would rank senior to the Company’s common stock with respect to rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution. Series C Preferred Stock will have a liquidation preference of $10.00 per share. This preference, and conversion rights associated with the Series C Preferred Stock, may adversely affect us and reduce returns for holders, or the market price, of the Company’s common stock.
Additionally, we have issued debt instruments that permit the holders to convert their Company debt into Company common stock, and any such shares of common stock issued upon conversion would be dilutive to existing stockholders and when sold into the public markets may adversely the market price of the Company’s common stock.
In the future, we may incur debt or issue other equity ranking senior to the Company’s common stock, like the Series C Preferred Stock. Those securities will generally have priority upon liquidation. Such securities also may be governed by an indenture or other instrument containing covenants restricting our operating flexibility. Additionally, any convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue in the future may have rights, preferences and privileges more favorable than those of the Company’s common stock. Because our decision to issue debt or equity in the future will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing, nature or success of our future capital raising efforts. As a result, future capital-raising efforts may reduce the market price of the Company’s common stock and be dilutive to existing stockholders.
There can be no assurance that the Company’s common stock will continue to be so listed, or that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq.
There can be no assurance that the Company’s common stock will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq, or that we will be able to comply with Nasdaq’s continued listing standards. If Nasdaq delists Alpha Modus’s shares from trading on its exchange for failure to meet Nasdaq’s listing standards, Alpha Modus and its stockholders could face significant material adverse consequences including, but not limited to:
| ● | a limited availability of market quotations for Alpha Modus’s securities; | |
| ● | reduced liquidity for Alpha Modus’s securities; | |
| ● | a determination that Alpha Modus common stock is a “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in Alpha Modus common stock to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for Alpha Modus common stock; | |
| ● | a limited amount of analyst coverage; and | |
| ● | a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future. |
The National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” Because Alpha Modus common stock and Public Warrants are listed on Nasdaq, they are covered securities. Although the states are preempted from regulating the sale of our securities, the federal statute does allow the states to investigate companies if there is a suspicion of fraud, and, if there is a finding of fraudulent activity, then the states can regulate or bar the sale of covered securities in a particular case. While we are not aware of a state, other than the State of Idaho, having used these powers to prohibit or restrict the sale of securities issued by blank check companies, certain state securities regulators view blank check companies unfavorably and might use these powers, or threaten to use these powers, to hinder the sale of securities of blank check companies in their states. Further, if Alpha Modus was no longer listed on Nasdaq, Alpha Modus’s securities would not be covered securities and Alpha Modus would be subject to regulation in each state in which Alpha Modus offers its securities.
An active market for Alpha Modus’s securities may not develop, which would adversely affect the liquidity and price of Alpha Modus’s securities.
The price of Alpha Modus’s securities may vary significantly due to factors specific to Alpha Modus as well as to general market or economic conditions. Furthermore, an active trading market for Alpha Modus’s securities may never develop or, if developed, it may not be sustained. Holders of Alpha Modus’s securities may be unable to sell their securities unless a market can be established and sustained.
The market price of the Company’s common stock may decline.
Fluctuations in the price of the Company’s securities could contribute to the loss of all or part of your investment. Prior to the Business Combination, there has not been an active public market for the Company’s common stock. If an active market for Alpha Modus’s securities develops and continues, the trading price of Alpha Modus’s securities in the future could be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond Alpha Modus’s control. Any of the factors listed below could have a material adverse effect on your investment in Alpha Modus’s securities and Alpha Modus’s securities may trade at prices significantly below the price you paid for them. In such circumstances, the trading price of Alpha Modus’s securities may not recover and may experience a further decline.
The market price of Alpha Modus common stock may decline for a number of other reasons including if:
| ● | investors react negatively to the prospects of Alpha Modus’s business operations, results, and prospects; | |
| ● | actual or anticipated fluctuations in Alpha Modus’s quarterly financial results or the quarterly financial results of companies perceived to be similar to it; | |
| ● | changes in the market’s expectations about Alpha Modus’s operating results; | |
| ● | success of competitors; | |
| ● | changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts concerning Alpha Modus or the AI industry in general; | |
| ● | operating and share price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to Alpha Modus; | |
| ● | Alpha Modus’s ability to market new and enhanced products and technologies on a timely basis; | |
| ● | changes in laws and regulations affecting Alpha Modus’s business; | |
| ● | Alpha Modus’s ability to meet compliance requirements; |
| 17 |
| ● | commencement of, or involvement in, litigation involving Alpha Modus; | |
| ● | changes in Alpha Modus’s capital structure, such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of additional debt; | |
| ● | the volume of Alpha Modus’s shares of common stock available for public sale; or | |
| ● | any major change in Alpha Modus’s Board or management. |
Future sales, or the perception of future sales, by Alpha Modus or its stockholders in the public market could cause the market price for Alpha Modus common stock to decline.
The sale of shares of Alpha Modus common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could harm the prevailing market price of shares of Alpha Modus common stock. These sales, or the possibility that these sales may occur, also might make it more difficult for Alpha Modus to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that it deems appropriate.
All shares currently held by public stockholders and all of the shares issued in the Business Combination to existing Alpha Modus stockholders are freely tradable without registration under the Securities Act, and without restriction by persons other than Alpha Modus’ “affiliates” (as defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, “Rule 144”), including Alpha Modus’ directors, executive officers and other affiliates.
In the future, Alpha Modus may also issue its securities in connection with investments or acquisitions. The amount of shares of Alpha Modus common stock issued in connection with an investment or acquisition could constitute a material portion of the then-outstanding shares of Alpha Modus common stock. Any issuance of additional securities in connection with investments or acquisitions may result in additional dilution to Alpha Modus stockholders.
Alpha Modus’ failure to meet the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq could result in a delisting of its Securities.
On April 6, 2026, the Company received a written notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company no longer meets the $500,000 minimum net income standard (the “Net Income Standard”), the alternative minimum market value of listed securities of $35 million (“MVLS Standard”), or the alternative stockholders’ equity of at least $2.5 million (the “Stockholders’ Equity Standard,” and together with the Net Income Standard and the MVLS Standards, the “Three Alternative Listing Standards”) required by Nasdaq’s Rules.
Under the Rules, the Company had 45 days to submit a plan to regain compliance, and if the plan is accepted, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the Notice to regain compliance. The Company submitted that plan to Nasdaq on or about May 19, 2026.
If Alpha Modus is unable to remain in compliance with the Nasdaq’s listing rules, Nasdaq may take steps to delist the Company’s securities. Such a delisting would likely have a negative effect on the price of the securities and would impair your ability to sell or purchase the securities when you wish to do so. In the event of a delisting, Alpha Modus can provide no assurance that any action taken by it to restore compliance with listing requirements would allow its securities to become listed again, stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of its securities, prevent its securities from dropping below the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement or prevent future non-compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements. Additionally, if Alpha Modus’ securities are not listed on, or become delisted from, Nasdaq for any reason, and are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, an inter-dealer automated quotation system for equity securities that is not a national securities exchange, the liquidity and price of our securities may be more limited than if we were quoted or listed on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange. You may be unable to sell your securities unless a market can be established or sustained.
Alpha Modus qualifies as an “emerging growth company” as well as a smaller reporting company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if Alpha Modus takes advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies or smaller reporting companies, this could make Alpha Modus’s securities less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare Alpha Modus’s performance with other public companies.
Alpha Modus qualifies as an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act. As such, Alpha Modus may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies for as long as Alpha Modus continues to be an emerging growth company, including, but not limited to, (i) not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (ii) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in Alpha Modus’s periodic reports and proxy statements and (iii) exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. As a result, Alpha Modus’s stockholders may not have access to certain information they may deem important. Alpha Modus will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which the market value of Alpha Modus common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal quarter, (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which Alpha Modus has total annual gross revenue of $1.07 billion or more during such fiscal year (as indexed for inflation), (iii) the date on which Alpha Modus has issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in the prior three-year period or (iv) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common stock in the IAC IPO (i.e., the last day of the 2026 fiscal year). Investors may find Alpha Modus’s securities less attractive because Alpha Modus will rely on these exemptions. Alpha Modus cannot predict whether investors will find its securities less attractive because it will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find Alpha Modus’s securities less attractive as a result of its reliance on these exemptions, the trading prices of Alpha Modus’s securities may be lower than they otherwise would be, there may be a less active trading market for its securities and the trading prices of its securities may be more volatile.
| 18 |
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of Alpha Modus’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Additionally, Alpha Modus will qualify as a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. Alpha Modus will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (i) the market value of Alpha Modus common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $250 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal quarter, or (ii) its annual revenues exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of Alpha Modus common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal quarter. To the extent Alpha Modus takes advantage of such reduced disclosure obligations, it may also make comparison of its financial statements with other public companies difficult or impossible.
Compliance obligations under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act require substantial financial and management resources, and increase the time and costs of completing an initial business combination.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that we evaluate and report on our system of internal controls. Only in the event we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer or an accelerated filer, and no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, will we be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on our internal control over financial reporting. Further, for as long as we remain an emerging growth company, we will not be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on our internal control over financial reporting.
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. This material weakness could continue to adversely affect our ability to report our results of operations and financial condition accurately and in a timely manner. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Our management is likewise required, on a quarterly basis, to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and to disclose any changes and material weaknesses identified through such evaluation of those internal controls. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
We have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2025, and as of December 31, 2024, because material weaknesses existed in our internal control over financial reporting. We have taken some measures to remediate the material weaknesses described therein; however, if we are unable to remediate our material weaknesses in a timely manner or we identify additional material weaknesses, we may be unable to provide required financial information in a timely and reliable manner and we may incorrectly report financial information. Likewise, if our financial statements are not filed on a timely basis, we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the stock exchange on which our Class A common stock is listed, the SEC or other regulatory authorities. Failure to timely file will cause us to be ineligible to utilize short form registration statements on Form S-3 or, which may impair our ability to obtain capital in a timely fashion to execute our business strategies or issue shares to effect an acquisition. In either case, the existence of material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting could adversely affect our business and our reputation or investor perceptions of us, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock. In addition, we will incur additional costs to remediate material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.
| 19 |
We can give no assurance that the measures we have taken and plan to take in the future will remediate the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting or that any additional material weaknesses or restatements of financial results will not arise in the future due to a failure to implement and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting or circumvention of these controls. In addition, even if we are successful in strengthening our controls and procedures, in the future those controls and procedures may not be adequate to prevent or identify irregularities or errors or to facilitate the fair presentation of our financial statements.

MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
References in this section to “we,” “our,” “us,” and “Alpha Modus” generally refer to Alpha Modus, Corp. prior to the Business Combination and to Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries after giving effect to the Business Combination. References to “Legacy Alpha Modus” generally refer to Alpha Modus, Corp., and references to the “Company” generally refer to Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc. The following discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the sections entitled “Business,” “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information and Other Data,” and our financial statements and related notes and other information included elsewhere in this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon our current expectations, estimates and projections that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements due to, among other considerations, the matters discussed under “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
Overview
Alpha Modus engages in creating, developing and licensing data-driven technologies to enhance consumers’ in-store digital experience at the point of decision. The company was founded in 2014 and is headquartered in Cornelius, North Carolina.
As technological innovation is at the core of the company, Alpha Modus has developed comprehensive end-to-end patented solutions for retailers and consumer brands to bring innovation to consumers and enhance their experience at the point of sale. Some examples that the ‘571 patent family could potentially include use in the following:
| ● | targeted marketing campaigns; | |
| ● | actionable insights on consumer product packaging; | |
| ● | inventory control; | |
| ● | smart planograms; | |
| ● | in-store heatmapping of consumer traffic; | |
| ● | consumer behavior; and | |
| ● | staffing needs based on foot traffic in a retail location. |
| 21 |
The primary focus of Alpha Modus’ technology is to analyze consumer behavior and their interactions with retail products in real-time with the objective to provide brands and retailers the ability to achieve the following:
Enhance the Consumer’s In-Store Experience
| ● | Engage consumers with interactive output displays throughout brick-and-mortar retail stores to capture critical decision-making at the point of sale. | |
| ● | Cater to specific and immediate needs of the consumer. | |
| ● | Capture MAC address tracking data, user eye tracking, object identification of goods throughout the store. |
Manage Inventory and Create Smart Planograms
| ● | Assess the consumers product engagement and product tracking in real time. | |
| ● | Aid in inventory management and product placement throughout a store by creating smart planograms. |
Monetize Digital Insights
| ● | Curate tailored in-store marketing solutions. | |
| ● | Drive sales via engaging customers with digital experiences at the point of sale. |
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Critical accounting policies are those that, in management’s view, are most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results of operations and most demanding on their calls on judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. While our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in Note 2 to our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this annual report, we believe that the following accounting policies are those most critical to the judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.
Derivative Liabilities
The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants and the forward purchase agreement, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC 480 and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.
The company earnout shares and sponsor earnout shares (“earnout shares”) as defined in the business combination agreement are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“ASC 820”), the Company recognizes the earnout shares instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the carrying value of the instruments to fair value at each reporting period for so long as they are outstanding. At the date of the merger, the initial fair value of the earnout shares have been estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Subsequently, the fair value of the earnout shares have been estimated using this same Monte Carlo simulation model. Derivative earnout shares liabilities are classified as current liabilities (See note 7 for more details on earnout shares).

Series C Preferred Stock
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company amended and restated its charter to include the designation of a Series C Preferred Stock. The Amended and Restated Charter authorizes the issuance of 8,500,000 shares of preferred stock, 7,500,000 shares of which have been designated as Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred Stock”), and 1,000,000 shares of which will be undesignated. Based on the characteristics and rights of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Company is reporting it as Mezzanine Equity (Temporary Equity) on its consolidated balance sheets. These shares were valued at the date of issuance using a Monte Carlo Simulation model. The Company determined that subsequent changes to the carrying value of the series C preferred shares will not be recognized until Redemption becomes probable of occurring. See Note 9 – Mezzanine Equity for further details.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Results of Operations
For the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024
Revenue
Alpha Modus had $7,138 and $0 in royalty revenue during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Operating Expenses
Alpha Modus had operating expenses of $5,251,326 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $834,895 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase in professional fees and increased consulting, insurance, payroll and public company expenses.
Other Income/Expenses
Alpha Modus had total other expense of $2,777,047 for the year ended December 31, 2025, $3,981,641 of which was interest expense, $803,680 of which was a gain in change in fair value of warrants liability, $1,053,084 of which was a gain of change in fair value of earnout shares liability and $760,302 of which was loss on settlement of debt, as compared to total other income of $4,938,162, $168,886 of which was interest expense, $13,226,926 of which was a forbearance fee expense, $397,553 of which was a loss in change in fair value of warrants liability and $18,731,514 of which was a gain of change in fair value of earnout shares liability during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Net Income
Alpha Modus had a net loss of $8,021,235 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to a net income of $4,103,067 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The net loss during the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due to increase in operating expenses and the increase in interest expenses together with the gain in change in fair value of earnout shares of $1,053,084, gain in change in fair value of warrants liability of $803,680 and loss on settlement of debt of $760,302 as compared to the net income during the year ended December 31, 2024 comprised of the gain in change in fair value of earnout shares of $18,731,514, loss in change in fair value of warrants liability of $397,553 and forbearance fee expense of $13,226,926 as described above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2025, Alpha Modus had cash of $68,000. We do not have sufficient resources to effectuate our business. We expect to incur significant expenses during the next twelve months of operations, including as a result of becoming a public company. We estimate that these expenses will be comprised primarily of general expenses including overhead, legal and accounting fees. To maintain our plan of growth, we believe we will need to raise a minimum of an additional $2,500,000. These factors, along with the lack of current Company revenues, raise substantial doubts about Alpha Modus’ ability to continue as a going concern.
| 23 |
Operations used cash of $3,210,182 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $1,676,499 used for the year ended December 31, 2024.
We used $8,050 to acquire equipment in the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $2,537 in cash acquired with the business combination but incurred $361,643 in acquisition costs in the year ended December 31, 2024.
We had net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025, of $2,550,418, compared to $2,664,610 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
We will have to raise funds to pay for our expenses. We may have to borrow money from shareholders or issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us. We currently have no arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. Since we have no such arrangements or plans currently in effect, our inability to raise funds for our operations will have a severe negative impact on our ability to remain a viable company.
For the Three Months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the Three Months ended March 31, 2025
Revenue
Alpha Modus had $0 and $0 revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Operating Expenses
Alpha Modus had operating expenses of $3,807,146 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $1,359,201 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to an increase in professional fees and payroll expenses.
Other Income/Expenses
Alpha Modus had total other expense of $213,685 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to total other income of $1,051,120 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to the patent infringement income of $325,000, an increase of $368,322 in interest expense, an increase of $6,929 in loss on settlement of debt, a decrease of $25,266 in change in fair value of warrants liability and a decrease of $1,039,282 in gain of change in fair value of business combination earnout shares liability, as compared to total other income of $1,051,120 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The Company has generated income attributable to settlements of patent infringement and intellectual property enforcement matters. Under the current interpretation and application of GAAP, these proceeds are classified as “Other Income” rather than operating revenue within the consolidated statements of operations. Alpha Modus had $325,000 and $0 other income during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Net Loss
Alpha Modus had a net loss of $4,020,831 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to a net loss of $308,081 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in net loss during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the net loss during the three months ended March 31, 2025, was primarily due to the increase in professional fees of $2,518,009 and decrease of gain in change in fair value of earnout shares of $1,039,282 during the three months ended March 31, 2026, described above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2026, Alpha Modus had cash of $35,508. We do not have sufficient resources to execute all of our business plans. We expect to incur significant expenses during the next twelve months of operations, including expenses associated with being a public company. We estimate that these expenses will be comprised primarily of general expenses including overhead, legal and accounting fees. To maintain our plan of growth, we believe we will need to raise a minimum of an additional $2,500,000. These factors, along with the lack of current Company revenues, raise substantial doubt about Alpha Modus’ ability to continue as a going concern.
Net cash used in operating activities was $1,488,596 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $594,147 for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
We had net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026, of $119,797, compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
We had net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026, of $1,575,901, compared to $6,610 for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
We will have to raise funds to pay for our expenses. We may have to borrow money from shareholders or issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us. We currently have no arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. Since we have no such arrangements or plans currently in effect, our inability to raise funds for our operations will have a severe negative impact on our ability to remain a viable company.
Emerging Growth Company Status
Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can choose not to take advantage of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies, and any such election to not take advantage of the extended transition period is irrevocable.
IAC is an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act and has elected to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition period for new or revised financial accounting standards. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Alpha Modus expects to remain an emerging growth company at least through the end of the 2023 fiscal year and to continue to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition period, although it may decide to early adopt such new or revised accounting standards to the extent permitted by such standards. This may make it difficult or impossible to compare Alpha Modus’ financial results with the financial results of another public company that is either not an emerging growth company or is an emerging growth company that has chosen not to take advantage of the extended transition period exemptions because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an emerging growth company, we intend to rely on such exemptions, we are not required to, among other things: (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis); and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation-related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation to median employee compensation.
We will remain an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act until the earliest of (i) the last day of our first fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the IAC IPO, (ii) the last date of our fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, (iii) the date on we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the rules of the SEC with at least $700.0 million of outstanding common equity held by non-affiliates, or (iv) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the previous three years.

BUSINESS
Overview
Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc., through its operating subsidiaries, is a technology and intellectual property company focused on the development, protection, licensing, and commercialization of data-driven systems designed to enhance consumer engagement and decision-making within physical retail environments. The Company was founded in 2014 and is headquartered in Cornelius, North Carolina.
Alpha Modus’ core strategy centers on the creation, licensing and enforcement of a proprietary patent portfolio covering systems and methods for real-time monitoring, analysis, and response to consumer behavior at or near the point of purchase. The Company’s technology is designed to convert previously unstructured consumer interaction data into actionable insights using advanced analytics and artificial intelligence. These insights may be used to support personalized marketing, dynamic digital engagement, smart planograms, inventory management, and enhanced in-store customer assistance.
Evolution of the Business Model
In its early years, Alpha Modus engaged in technology development and limited commercial deployments, including work in financial markets and real estate analytics. During this period, the Company developed algorithmic and analytics-based systems leveraging cloud infrastructure and cognitive computing tools and received industry recognition for innovation in cloud-based analytics.
In 2018, Alpha Modus acquired certain assets, including intellectual property and pending patent applications, from a retail technology company. That acquisition expanded the Company’s focus into retail consumer analytics and real-time engagement technologies. The initial issued patent from this portfolio, U.S. Patent No. 10,360,571 (the “‘571 Patent”), was granted in 2019.
Following this issuance and subsequent patent continuations and related filings, the Company determined that long-term value creation would be better supported by strengthening and expanding its intellectual property position prior to pursuing broad-scale commercialization. As a result, Alpha Modus strategically shifted from near-term software and hardware-centric deployment efforts to a patent-first strategy designed to fortify its intellectual property portfolio, pursue additional patent issuances, and position the Company for structured IP-protected licensing.
Since that time, the Company has expanded its patent portfolio to include additional issued patents and pending applications covering systems and methods for:
| ● | Real-time monitoring and analysis of consumer demographic, sentiment, and behavioral data; | |
| ● | Object identification and product interaction analytics; | |
| ● | Personalized marketing and advertising tied to in-store location tracking; | |
| ● | Dynamic digital displays and interactive engagement systems; | |
| ● | Smart planograms and inventory optimization; and | |
| ● | Real-time communications, including digital coupons and targeted promotions. |
Intellectual Property Licensing and Enforcement
One of Alpha Modus’ primary revenue strategies is the licensing of its patented technologies to retailers, consumer brands, advertising technology providers, digital media platforms, and other commercial enterprises whose products or services practice or benefit from the claimed inventions.
The Company has entered into intellectual property licensing agreements outside of litigation and continues to pursue negotiated, market-based licensing outcomes. In addition, where appropriate, Alpha Modus actively enforces its intellectual property rights through litigation in federal courts. These enforcement actions are intended to protect shareholder value, deter unauthorized use, and establish structured licensing frameworks across the industries in which the Company’s patented technologies are practiced.
| 25 |
While the Company seeks to resolve disputes through negotiated licensing arrangements where feasible, litigation remains an integral component of its overall commercialization strategy.
Technology Capabilities and Applications
The Company’s patented systems generally involve the use of one or more information monitoring devices—such as video image devices or other sensor technologies—operably connected to servers and databases capable of analyzing gathered information in real time. The analyzed information may include demographic characteristics, sentiment data, product interaction data, and tracking information. Based on such analysis, the systems may provide targeted responses, including digital content engagement, marketing communications, product location guidance, coupons, or other personalized interactions.
Applications of the Company’s patented technologies may include:
| ● | Targeted in-store marketing campaigns; | |
| ● | Digital engagement at the point of sale; | |
| ● | Consumer behavior analytics and heatmapping; | |
| ● | Inventory management and smart planogram optimization; | |
| ● | Store-level staffing analytics; and | |
| ● | Integration of physical retail data with broader advertising and digital media ecosystems. |
The Company believes that its intellectual property addresses structural challenges facing brick-and-mortar retailers, including the need to compete with digital commerce platforms by delivering measurable, personalized, and performance-driven engagement within physical retail environments.
Commercialization and Ecosystem Strategy
In addition to licensing its patent portfolio, Alpha Modus is pursuing commercialization initiatives designed to deploy its technologies through strategic partnerships, platform integrations, and fintech-enabled retail infrastructure initiatives. These initiatives include the development and planned rollout of consumer-facing applications and in-store kiosk technologies intended to operate within established compliance and payments frameworks. The Company’s commercialization efforts are designed to complement its intellectual property licensing strategy and to demonstrate real-world implementations of its patented systems.
The Company’s long-term objective is to establish its patent portfolio as foundational infrastructure for real-time, data-driven consumer engagement within physical commerce environments, while monetizing such position through structured licensing and strategic partnerships.
The ‘571 Patent Family and the uses thereof
The ‘571 patent family is based on US Patent No. 10,360,571, which issued on July 23, 2019. The ‘571 patent claims priority to a provisional patent application filed on July 19, 2013.
Our business is substantially dependent on the development, protection, and enforcement of our intellectual property portfolio. We own a portfolio of issued United States patents and pending patent applications relating to systems and methods for real-time monitoring, analysis, and response to consumer behavior within physical retail and related digital commerce environments.
As of the date of this filing, our issued U.S. patent portfolio consists of eleven granted patents:
| ● | U.S. Patent No. 10,360,571 - Method for Monitoring and Analyzing Behavior and Uses Thereof | |
| ● | U.S. Patent No. 10,853,825 - Method for Monitoring and Analyzing Behavior and Uses Thereof |
| 26 |
| ● | U.S. Patent No. 10,977,672 - Method and System for Real-Time Inventory Management, Marketing, and Advertising in a Retail Store | |
| ● | U.S. Patent No. 11,042,890 - Method and System for Customer Assistance in a Retail Store | |

| ● | U.S. Patent No. 12,425,718 - Methods and Systems for Providing Assistance in a Retail Store |
These patents generally relate to, among other things:
| ● | Monitoring and analyzing consumer demographic, sentiment, and behavioral characteristics in real time; | |
| ● | Product interaction and object identification analytics within retail environments; | |
| ● | Location-based tracking of consumers within retail stores; | |
| ● | Personalized marketing, advertising, and coupon delivery tied to in-store activity; | |
| ● | Customer assistance systems within physical retail locations; | |
| ● | Store layout generation and product placement optimization; and | |
| ● | Real-time communications and purchase options, including digital engagement through interactive devices. |
The patents in our portfolio share priority to earlier filed applications and include continuation filings designed to expand and strengthen claim coverage over time. In addition to our issued patents, we maintain pending U.S. patent applications intended to further broaden and reinforce our intellectual property position.
We seek to protect our intellectual property through a combination of patent prosecution, licensing arrangements, contractual protections, and, where appropriate, enforcement actions. We have entered into intellectual property licensing agreements and may pursue additional licensing opportunities through negotiated arrangements or litigation.
The duration of our issued patents extends for statutory terms generally measured from their respective earliest effective filing dates, subject to any patent term adjustments or extensions. There can be no assurance that pending applications will result in issued patents, that issued patents will not be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or that our intellectual property rights will provide meaningful competitive protection.
The ‘571 patent received a patent term extension of 1,042 days and does not expire until May 25, 2037. The other patents in the family expire on July 18, 2034. Therefore, there is significant patent life remaining in the ‘571 patent family. Beginning well before the current expiration of our entire patent family, Alpha Modus intends to continue evolving with the industry and developing new concepts that support increasing revenue streams. Alpha Modus intends to expand the use of our patent family as a lever to develop a sales team to drive potential partnerships authorized under the ‘571 patent family.
During 2025, the Company filed additional United States patent applications as reflected in its current patent portfolio schedule, including: (i) U.S. Patent Application No. 19/203,027, titled “Methods for Personalized Marketing of Retail Products”; (ii) U.S. Patent Application No. 19/233,507, titled “Methods for Personalized Marketing of Retail Products”; and (iii) U.S. Patent Application No. 19/309,240, titled “Methods and Systems for Providing Customer Assistance in a Retail Store.” These applications are intended to further expand and strengthen the Company’s intellectual property coverage relating to real-time consumer behavior analysis, personalized marketing, and in-store customer assistance systems.
Alpha Modus believes the ‘571 patent and several family members are being infringed by many major retailers, service providers and consumer brands, and that the adoption of the ‘571 patent (and family) technology is occurring at an exponential pace in the retail marketplace.

While these industry forecasts reflect broader market trends, actual market growth and technology adoption rates may differ materially from current projections.
Approach and Value Proposition
Upon its first notification of allowance for the ‘571 patent in July of 2019, Alpha Modus decided to focus 100% of its resources on the expansion of the technology described in the ‘571 patent. The services covered by the ‘571 patent were just beginning to be adopted by retailers. Alpha Modus’ strategy was to build out the technology, resulting in a robust patent portfolio that would serve its stakeholders better, as early thought leaders in the retail digital marketing space.

Additionally, the Company and Alpha Modus (collectively the “Borrowers”), and William Alessi, his entity, Janbella Group, LLC, and the trusts deemed to be beneficially owned by Mr. Alessi (each a “Capital Party” and collectively the “Capital Parties”), were required to execute at closing a subordination and voting agreement (the “Subordination Agreement”) pursuant to which (i) all of the Borrowers’ indebtedness and obligations to each Capital Party were subordinated to Investor, (ii) all security interests of any Capital Party were subordinate to Investor’s security interests, (iii) the Borrowers would not make any payments to any Capital Party, (iv) none of the Capital Parties would accelerate any subordinated debt or equity, (v) and no Capital Party would convert or exchange their preferred stock of the Company into Common Stock, until such time as the Investor had been fully paid and all financing agreements between the Investor and the Borrowers were terminated.

The Note matured 18 months following the date the purchase price is delivered to the Company (the “Purchase Price Date”), accrued interest of 10% per annum, was prepayable (after providing five trading days’ notice) at a 20% premium to the then-outstanding balance of the Note, and was convertible into Class A common stock (“Common Stock”) of the Company as described below. Within 30 days of the Purchase Price Date, the Company was obligated to file a registration statement on Form S-1 with the SEC registering a number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note, and such registration statement was filed as described below.
The Note was convertible at the election of the Investor into shares of Common Stock at any time following the earlier of the effective date of the registration statement described above or one year following the Purchase Price Date, at a conversion price equal to 90% multiplied by the lowest daily volume-weighted average price during the five trading days preceding conversion, and provided that (i) the Investor may not convert the Note into shares of Common Stock to the extent that such conversion would result in the Investor’s beneficial ownership of Common Stock being in excess of 4.99% (or 9.99% if the Company’s market capitalization is less than $10 million), and provided that (ii) the Note is not convertible into a total cumulative number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the number of shares of Common Stock permitted by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 (the “Exchange Cap”). Pursuant to the terms of the Note, the Company was required to, within 120 days of the Purchase Price Date, seek shareholder approval of the Note and the issuance of shares of Common Stock, issuable upon conversion of the Note and pursuant to the Reinvestment Right, in excess of the Exchange Cap (the “Shareholder Approvals”). If such shareholder approval is not obtained within 120 days, the Company was required to continue to seek shareholder approval every three months thereafter until shareholder approval is obtained. Pursuant to the Subordination Agreement, each Capital Party was required to vote all of their shares of Company stock in favor of the Shareholder Approvals. Under the SPA, the Company was required to initially reserve 7,500,000 shares of its Common Stock for issuance to the Investor under the Note, and the Company was required to add additional shares to the reserve in increments of 100,000 shares when requested by the Investor if at the time of the request the number of shares being held in reserve is less than three times the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the outstanding balance under the Note divided by the applicable conversion price at that time.
On December 12, 2024, the Company amended the SPA (the “Amended SPA”) to revise the terms of the Note. Pursuant to the Amended SPA, the Note was not convertible below a floor price of $4.00/share, but if the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock is less than the floor price for ten consecutive trading days, the Company is required to begin making monthly payments under the Note on the date that is 90 days following the original funding date.
On or about December 13, 2024, the Company issued the Note to the Investor, the Note was funded on or about December 16, 2024, and the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock was subsequently less than the $4.00 floor price for more than ten consecutive trading days, which, under the terms of the Amended SPA, would have required the Company to begin making monthly payments under the Note, with those monthly payments commencing on March 16, 2025, and with those monthly payments being equal to 120% multiplied by the outstanding balance divided by the lesser of 6 or the number of months remaining until the Note’s maturity date.
On January 27, 2025, the Company and the Investor entered into an amendment to the Note providing that (i) the Company was not required to begin making monthly payments under the Note until May 16, 2025, (ii) the monthly payments will equal $485,000.00 plus all accrued but unpaid interest, multiplied by 120%, and (iii) the Company would pay to the Investor 50% of all proceeds received by the Company from any equity line of credit or similar arrangement within one trading day of receipt by the Company.

On April 28, 2025, the Company and the Investor entered into a second amendment to the Note (the “Second Amendment”) providing that (i) the 20% prepayment penalty under the Note was eliminated, but the outstanding balance of the Note was increased to $3,597,501.71 (i.e., the outstanding balance under the Note as of April 28, 2025, plus the prepayment penalty of 20% as of April 28, 2025), (ii) the Company would have the right on up to three occasions to extend the monthly payment start date for one month, with the outstanding balance automatically increasing by one percent for each extension, (iii) the monthly payments would equal $582,000 plus all accrued but unpaid interest, (iv) the floor price was reduced to $1.25, (v) the Investor’s beneficial ownership limitation was increased to 9.99%, (vi) the Company agreed to hold a stockholder meeting within 60 days to approve the issuances to the Investor under the Note and under an equity line of credit agreement with the Investor in excess of the Exchange Cap (as such term was defined in the Note), (vii) the Company agreed to sell the Investor 1,250,000 shares of common stock (the “Pre-Delivery Shares”) for $125, which Pre-Delivery Shares shall be used by the Investor only as pre-delivery shares under the Note and a future equity line of credit agreement between the Company and the Investor, (viii) the Company agreed to file a registration statement to register the Pre-Delivery Shares and other shares of common stock issuable to the Investor upon conversion of the Note, and (ix) the Investor provided its written consent to the Company entering into the Patent Monetization Agreement and Option Agreement described below.
A registration statement registering shares for resale by the Investor was filed by the Company with the SEC pursuant to the Company’s obligations under the Second Amendment to register Pre-Delivery Shares and other shares of common stock issuable to the Investor upon conversion of the Note (of which 1,250,000 Pre-Delivery Shares and 3,000,000 other conversion shares were registered for resale in that registration statement). That registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on May 23, 2025. On May 29, 2025, the Investor converted $767,000 of the Note into 613,600 shares of Company common stock. On June 11, 2025, the Investor converted $125,000 of the Note into 100,000 shares of Company common stock. On July 10, 2026, the Investor converted $162,500 of the Note into 130,000 shares of Company common stock. On July 16, 2025, the Investor converted $150,000 of the Note into 120,000 shares of Company common stock. On July 23, 2025, the Investor converted an aggregate of $2,545,500 of the Note into 2,036,400 shares of Company common stock, leaving a balance due to the Investor under the Note of approximately $11,312.28, which the Company paid on July 23, 2025, satisfying the note in full. On or about July 25, 2025, the Company repurchased the 1,250,000 Pre-Delivery Shares from the Investor for $125, and on or about August 6, 2025, the Pre-Delivery Shares were returned to the Company by the Investor and cancelled.
Business Combination Closing
On December 13, 2024, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement consummated the Business Combination, and in connection with closing issued the Note to the Investor, and entered into the Guaranty, Security Agreements, IP Security Agreement, and Subordination Agreement. Immediately upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Alpha Modus, Corp. became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, the Company changed its name to “Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc.,” and the Company is now listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “AMOD”. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Under this method of accounting, INAQ is treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes. See “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information and Other Data.” Legacy Alpha Modus’ financial statements for previous periods will be disclosed in the Company’s future periodic reports filed with the SEC.
In connection with the Business Combination, approximately 426,136 shares of common stock were redeemed, which represented a significant portion of the publicly traded shares outstanding immediately prior to the Business Combination and resulted in only approximately $1.16 million of cash from the INAQ trust account becoming available to Alpha Modus in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. In the Business Combination, the Company issued 5,295,000 shares of common stock and 7,500,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock to Legacy Alpha Modus’ shareholders as merger consideration in the Business Combination, and the Company issued 1,817,308 shares of common stock to various parties as required by the Business Combination Agreement. Immediately following the Business Combination, including the redemption of shares described above, there were 12,455,252 shares of the Company’s common stock (all Class A common stock) issued and outstanding, and 7,500,000 shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.
As a result of becoming a publicly traded company, we will need to hire additional personnel and implement procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements and customary practices. We expect to incur additional annual expenses as a public company for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees and additional internal and external accounting and legal and administrative resources, including increased audit and legal fees.

Other Recent Developments
On April 28, 2025, the Company entered into a Patent Monetization Agreement (the “Patent Monetization Agreement”) with Alpha Modus Ventures, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, William Alessi (“AMV”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to provide litigation funding to AMV in connection with AMV’s recently filed patent litigation suit against Broadcom Inc. for infringement of AMV’s patents relating to methods and apparatus for transporting of fibre channel data over ethernet (U.S. Patent Nos. 11,108,591, 11,303,473, and 11,310,077), and the parties agreed that the gross proceeds from the litigation would first be paid to the Company until it has received the return of amounts funded for the litigation, and then 65% to the Company until it has received a five times return, then 45% to the Company until it has received an additional two times return, and then 35% to the Company.
On April 28, 2025, and in connection with entering into the Patent Monetization Agreement, the Company entered into an Option Agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with AMV’s owners (Janbella Group, LLC, an entity controlled by Mr. Alessi, and Chris Chumas, the Company’s Chief Sales Officer), pursuant to which the Company received the right to acquire AMV from its owners for an option exercise price consisting of the following: (i) the termination by the Company of the Patent Monetization Agreement and AMV’s related payment obligations to the Company under the Patent Monetization Agreement, (ii) the payment of $300,000 to Janbella Group, LLC (in satisfaction of which Janbella Group, LLC will release AMV of its $300,000 repayment obligation to Janbella Group, LLC) as soon as the Investor (defined above) has been repaid in full, and (iii) the issuance by the Company to AMV’s owners in the aggregate of a number of shares of common stock equal to $35,000,000 divided by the closing price of the Company’s common stock immediately prior to closing, which closing shall not occur until the Company’s shareholders have approved such transaction and issuance of common stock as required by Nasdaq’s listing rules.
The Company did not make any payments or assist with any litigation funding under the Patent Monetization Agreement, and the Company does not expect to receive any payments under that agreement, nor does it expect to exercise any right to acquire AMV pursuant to the Option Agreement.

Recent Transaction with the Selling Securityholder
Effective June 30, 2026, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with the Investor, pursuant to which the Company would sell and the Investor would purchase (i) one or more Secured Pre-Paid Purchases (each a “Pre-Paid Purchase,” and collectively the “Pre-Paid Purchases”) in the aggregate purchase amount of up to $10,000,000 (the “Commitment Amount”), for the purchase of shares of Class A common stock of the Company (“Common Shares”), upon the terms and subject to the limitations and conditions set forth in the Pre-Paid Purchase; and (ii) 450,000 Common Shares, to be delivered by the Company to Investor at the initial closing and to be used as pre-delivery shares under the Pre-Paid Purchases (the “Pre-Delivery Shares”).
The SPA includes customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company and customary closing conditions. The SPA prohibits the Company, while any Pre-Paid Purchase is outstanding, from issuing any (i) debt securities other than trade payables in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) any variable rate equity securities. The SPA also prohibits the Company from making any payments to William Alessi, the Company’s CEO, or any of his affiliates, with respect to any debt obligations owed by the Company to any of those affiliated debtholders. The SPA prohibits the issuance to the Investor under any Pre-Paid Purchase of a number of Common Shares in excess of the amount that would be permitted under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) without shareholder approval (the “Exchange Cap”), and requires the Company to obtain shareholder approval to issue to the Investor an amount of Common Shares in excess of the Exchange Cap (the “Shareholder Approval”) prior to the initial closing. The Shareholder Approval was received by the Company on June 30, 2026. The SPA also requires the Company to, within 30 days of the initial closing, file (i) a Schedule 14C information statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding the Shareholder Approval, and (ii) a registration statement with the SEC registering the Pre-Delivery Shares and all other Common Shares that may be purchased by the Investor pursuant to any Pre-Paid Purchase.
| 41 |
Each Pre-Paid Purchase will be issued in substantially the same form as the Initial Pre-Paid Purchase (defined below), matures 18 months following the date the purchase price for such Pre-Paid Purchase is delivered to the Company (the “Purchase Price Date”), includes an 8% original issue discount (OID), accrues interest at 8% per annum, and is prepayable, after providing 10 trading days’ notice, at a 10% premium to the then-outstanding balance of the Pre-Paid Purchase. If the registration statement referenced above is not declared effective by the SEC within 90 days of the Purchase Price Date, the outstanding balance under the Pre-Paid Purchase will automatically increase by 1% and will continue increasing by 1% every 30 days thereafter until the earlier of (i) the date the registration statement is declared effective, or (ii) 6 months following the Purchase Price Date. Under each Pre-Paid Purchase, the holder has the right to purchase Common Shares (by applying a portion of the outstanding balance under the Pre-Paid Purchase to the purchase of Common Shares) at a purchase price equal to 90% multiplied by the lowest daily volume-weighted average price during the five trading days preceding the purchase notice, subject to a $0.81 per share floor price, and provided that the Investor may not purchase shares of Common Stock to the extent that such purchase would result in the Investor’s beneficial ownership of Common Stock being in excess of 9.99%. If the volume-weighted average price of the Common Shares is less than the $0.81 per share floor price for at least 5 consecutive trading days, the Company is required to begin making monthly cash repayments of amounts outstanding under the Pre-Paid Purchase in amounts equal to (i) the outstanding balance at that time divided by 6, plus (ii) outstanding interest as of each payment date.
Each Pre-Paid Purchase is secured by a security agreement (the “Security Agreement”) by and between the Investor and the Company and its subsidiaries, granting the Investor first priority security interests in all assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, including Alpha Modus, Corp.’s intellectual property pursuant to a separate intellectual property security agreement (the “IP Security Agreement”). Additionally, each of the Company’s subsidiaries are guarantors of the Company’s obligations under each Pre-Paid Purchase pursuant to a guaranty (the “Guaranty”). William Alessi, his entity, Janbella Group, LLC, the trusts deemed to be beneficially owned by Mr. Alessi, and Chris Chumas (the Company’s CSO) (each a “Capital Party” and collectively the “Capital Parties”), are required to execute a subordination and voting agreement (the “Subordination Agreement”) pursuant to which (i) all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ indebtedness and obligations to each Capital Party will be subordinated to Investor, (ii) all security interests of any Capital Party will be subordinate to Investor’s security interests, (iii) the Company and its subsidiaries will not make any payments to any Capital Party (except for non-discretionary compensation owed to them pursuant to employment agreements with the Company), (iv) none of the Capital Parties will accelerate any subordinated debt or equity, (v) and no Capital Party will convert, exchange, or transfer their shares of Company stock until such time as the Investor has been fully paid and all financing agreements between the Investor and the Company are terminated. The Subordination Agreement also requires Chris Chumas to convert the 430,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock of the Company beneficially owned by him prior to June 29, 2026, into 304,412 Common Shares (the “Chumas Common Shares”) within 30 days of the Purchase Price Date, and the SPA requires Chris Chumas to complete that conversion of preferred shares into the Chumas Common Shares prior to the initial closing.
On June 30, 2026, the Company sold to the Investor (i) an initial Pre-Paid Purchase in the original principal amount of $2,190,000 (the “Initial Pre-Paid Purchase”), and (ii) the Pre-Delivery Shares, for a total purchase price of $2,000,045, which was paid by the Investor to the Company in the initial closing on June 30, 2026. At the initial closing, the Company issued the Initial Pre-Paid Purchase and Pre-Delivery Shares to the Investor, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into the Security Agreement, the Company’s subsidiary (Alpha Modus, Corp.) entered into the IP Security Agreement, the Company’s subsidiaries entered into the Guaranty, and the Capital Parties entered into the Subordination Agreement.
Emerging Growth Company
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As such, we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the prices of our securities may be more volatile.
We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) ending December 31, 2026, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of the prior fiscal year’s second fiscal quarter; and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” shall have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

Smaller Reporting Company
Additionally, we are a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (i) the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $250 million as of the prior June 30, or (ii) our annual revenues exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30.
Controlled Company
By virtue of the fact that Alpha Modus’ CEO, William Alessi, is deemed to beneficially own shares of stock having more than 50% of the total voting power of the shares of our capital stock, we qualify as a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the Nasdaq. Under these rules, a listed company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including the requirement that (i) a majority of our board consist of independent directors, (ii) we have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors, and (iii) we have a nominating/corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors.
Employees
We presently have 9 employees. We utilize consultants as well, we have never experienced work stoppages, and we are not a party to any collective bargaining agreement.

MANAGEMENT
The business and affairs of the Company are managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Company. The Company’s Amended and Restated Charter provides for a staggered, or classified, Board of Directors consisting of three classes of directors, each serving a staggered three-year term and with one class being elected at each year’s annual meeting of stockholders, as follows:
| ● | Class A, which consists of Scott Wattenberg, whose term will expire at the first annual meeting of stockholders to be held after the consummation of the Business Combination; |
| ● | Class B, which consists of William Ullman and Michael Garel, whose terms will expire at the second annual meeting of stockholders to be held after the consummation of the Business Combination; and | |
| ● | Class C, which consists of William Alessi and Gregory Richter, whose terms will expire at the third annual meeting of stockholders to be held after the consummation of the Business Combination. |
At each annual meeting of stockholders, directors for a particular class will be elected for a three-year term at the annual meeting of stockholders in the year in which the term for that class expires. Each director’s term is subject to the election and qualification of his or her successor, or his or her earlier death, disqualification, resignation or removal. Subject to any rights applicable to any then outstanding preferred stock, any vacancies on the Company Board may be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office. Any increase or decrease in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of the directors. This classification of the Company Board may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in the Company’s control or management. The Company’s directors may be removed for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Company’s voting securities.
| 43 |
In the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, all five of the Company’s directors were reelected as members of the Board of Directors of the Company.

Non-Employee Directors
Greg Richter is the Chief Executive Officer and a Partner of Medalist Partners, an alternative investment management firm focused on credit opportunities, and will be appointed to the Company Board upon consummation of the Business Combination. Prior to co-forming Medalist in May 2018, and its predecessor firm Candlewood Investment Group in 2010, Mr. Richter worked at Credit Suisse as a portfolio manager heading their structured credit effort. Previously, Mr. Richter was the Global Head of Credit Suisse’s Specialty Finance Group and a member of Credit Suisse’s Fixed Income Operating Committee, where he was responsible for the combined Global Asset Finance Capital Markets and the Specialty Finance Banking Groups.

Prior to joining Credit Suisse, Mr. Richter spent 15 years at Prudential Securities in New York where, most recently, he was Managing Director and served as the head of Trading and Syndicate for all structured products. Mr. Richter holds a B.A. in Economics from Colgate University. We believe Mr. Richter’s experience in the financial industry make him qualified to serve on the Company Board.
Michael Garel, who will be appointed to the Company Board upon consummation of the Business Combination, is the Senior Director of Innovation at Omnicell, a pharmacy technology company, where he has worked since September 2021. From July 2018 through September 2021, Mr. Garel was the Director of Data Strategy at Accruent, a healthcare technology company.

We believe Mr. Garrel’s technology expertise qualifies him to serve on the Company Board.
William Ullman, one of our directors since September 2021, is Managing Director, Head of High Net Worth Advisory at Connective Wealth Partners, a registered investment advisor. Mr. Ullman has been a board member of Van Eck Associates Corp., a New York based investment firm, since 2010.

Mr. Ullman earned an A.B. in History from Princeton University in 1985 and an M.B.A. from the Anderson School at UCLA in 1989. We believe Mr. Ullman’s substantial experience as an investment banker covering financial institutions, an operating executive, an investment manager, an advisor to financial technology start-ups and a board member make him well qualified to serve on our board of directors.
Scott Wattenberg has served as the Chief Financial Officer at SPATCO Energy Solutions since April 2023 and will be appointed to the Company Board upon consummation of the Business Combination. Mr. Wattenberg has extensive experience in financial leadership roles. Prior to his current position, he served as the Chief Financial Officer at BestCo from July 2014 to April 2023.

Board of Directors Leadership Structure
The Company’s Bylaws do not require separating the roles of Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. The Company Board believes that combining these roles will help to promote unified leadership and direction for both the Company Board and management, and appointed Mr. Alessi as President, Chief Executive Officer and Chair of the Company Board upon consummation of the Business Combination on December 13, 2024.
Board Composition
The Company Board is comprised of five directors.
Director Independence
The Company Board has determined that Michael Garel, Scott Wattenberg, and William Ullman qualify as independent directors on the Company Board, as defined under the listing rules of Nasdaq, and the Company Board will consist of a majority of “independent directors,” as defined under the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq relating to director independence requirements. In addition, the Company will be subject to the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq relating to the membership, qualifications and operations of the audit committee, as discussed below.
Role of the Company Board in Risk Oversight/Risk Committee
One of the key functions of the Company Board is oversight of the Company’s risk management process. The Company Board does have a standing risk management committee, but instead administers this oversight function directly through the Company Board as a whole, as well as through various standing committees of the Company Board that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. For example, the Company audit committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks associated with the Company’s financial reporting, accounting, and auditing matters; the Company’s compensation committee oversees the management of risks associated with our compensation policies and programs.
| 47 |
Board Committees
The Company Board has established an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. The Company Board has adopted a charter for each of these committees, which complies with the applicable requirements of current Nasdaq rules. The Company intends to comply with future requirements to the extent they will be applicable to the Company. Copies of the charters for each committee are available on the investor relations portion of the Company’s website.
Audit Committee
The Company’s audit committee consists of Scott Wattenberg, Michael Garel, and William Ullman. The Company Board has determined that each of the members of the audit committee satisfies the independence requirements of Nasdaq and Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Each member of the audit committee can read and understand fundamental financial statements in accordance with Nasdaq audit committee requirements. In arriving at this determination, the Company Board examined each audit committee member’s scope of experience and the nature of their prior and/or current employment.
Scott Wattenberg serves as the Chair of the audit committee. The Company Board has determined that Mr. Wattenberg qualifies as an audit committee financial expert within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the SEC and meets the financial sophistication requirements of Nasdaq listing rules. In making this determination, the Company Board considered Mr. Wattenberg’s formal education and previous experience in financial roles and as Chief Financial Officer for several companies. Both Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and management periodically will meet privately with the Company’s audit committee.
The functions of the audit committee include, among other things:
| ● | evaluating the performance, independence and qualifications of the Company’s independent auditors and determining whether to retain the Company’s existing independent auditors or engage new independent auditors; | |
| ● | monitoring the integrity of the Company’s financial statements and the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements as they relate to financial statements or accounting matters; | |
| ● | reviewing the integrity, adequacy and effectiveness of the Company’s internal control policies and procedures; | |
| ● | preparing the audit committee report required by the SEC to be included in the Company’s annual proxy statement; | |
| ● | discussing the scope and results of the audit with the Company’s independent auditors, and reviewing with management and the Company’s independent auditors the Company’s interim and year-end operating results; | |
| ● | establishing and overseeing procedures for employees to submit concerns anonymously about questionable accounting or auditing matters; | |
| ● | reviewing the Company’s guidelines and policies on risk assessment and risk management; | |
| ● | reviewing and approving related party transactions; | |
| ● | obtaining and reviewing a report by the Company’s independent auditors at least annually, that describes the Company’s independent auditors internal quality control procedures, any material issues raised by review under such procedures, and any steps taken to deal with such issues when required by applicable law; and | |
| ● | approving (or, as permitted, pre-approving) all audit and non-audit services to be performed by the Company’s independent auditors. |
The composition and function of the audit committee comply with all applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, SEC rules and regulations and Nasdaq listing rules. The Company will comply with future requirements to the extent they become applicable to the Company.
| 48 |
Compensation Committee
The Company’s compensation committee consists of Michael Garel, Scott Wattenberg, and William Ullman. Michael Garel serves as the Chair of the compensation committee. The Company’s Board has determined that each of the members of the compensation committee is a non-employee director, as defined in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, and satisfies the independence requirements of Nasdaq.
The functions of the compensation committee include, among other things:
| ● | approving the retention of compensation consultants and outside service providers and advisors; | |
| ● | reviewing and approving, or recommending that the Company Board approve, the compensation of Company’s executive officers, including annual base salary, annual incentive bonuses, specific performance goals relevant to their compensation, equity compensation, employment; | |
| ● | reviewing and recommending to the Company Board the compensation of the Company’s directors; | |
| ● | administering and determining any award grants under the Company’s equity and non-equity incentive plans; | |
| ● | reviewing and evaluating succession plans for the executive officers; | |
| ● | preparing the compensation committee report required by the SEC to be included in the Company’s annual proxy statement; and | |
| ● | periodically reviewing the Company’s practices and policies of employee compensation as they relate to risk management and risk-taking incentives. |
The composition and function of its compensation committee comply with all applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, SEC rules and regulations and Nasdaq listing rules. The Company will comply with future requirements to the extent they become applicable to the Company.
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
The Company’s nominating and corporate governance committee consists of William Ullman, Scott Wattenberg, and Michael Garel. William Ullman serves as the Chair of the nominating and corporate governance committee. The Company Board has determined that each of the members of the Company’s nominating and corporate governance committee satisfies the independence requirements of Nasdaq.
The functions of the nominating and corporate governance committee include, among other things:
| ● | identifying, evaluating, and recommending individuals qualified to become members of the Company Board and its committees; | |
| ● | evaluating the performance of the Company Board and of individual directors; | |
| ● | reviewing the Company’s environmental and social responsibility policies and practices; | |
| ● | developing and recommending corporate governance guidelines to the Company Board; and | |
| ● | overseeing an annual evaluation of the Company Board’s and management. |
| 49 |
The composition and function of the nominating and corporate governance committee comply with all applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, SEC rules and regulations and Nasdaq listing rules. The Company will comply with future requirements to the extent they become applicable to the Company.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
None of the intended members of the Company’s compensation committee has ever been an executive officer or employee of the Company. None of the Company’s executive officers currently serve, or has served during the last completed fiscal year, on the compensation committee or board of directors of any other entity that has one or more executive officers that will serve as a member of the Company Board or compensation committee.
Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers
The Amended and Restated Charter of the Company eliminates the Company’s directors’ liability for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. The DGCL provides that directors of a corporation will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, except for liability:
| ● | for any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit; | |
| ● | for any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; | |
| ● | for any unlawful payment of dividends or redemption of shares; or | |
| ● | for any breach of a director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders. |
If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of the Company’s directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended.
The Amended and Restated Charter requires the Company to indemnify and advance expenses to, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, its directors, officers and agents. The Company plans to maintain a directors’ and officers’ insurance policy pursuant to which the Company’s directors and officers are insured against liability for actions taken in their capacities as directors and officers. Finally, the Amended and Restated Charter prohibits any retroactive changes to the rights or protections or increasing the liability of any director in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any act or omission to act giving rise to liability or indemnification.
In addition, the Company has entered into separate indemnification agreements with the Company’s directors and officers. These agreements, among other things, require the Company to indemnify its directors and officers for certain expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by a director or officer in any action or proceeding arising out of their services as one of the Company’s directors or officers or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the Company’s request.
We believe these provisions in the Amended and Restated Charter are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers of the Company.
Code of Conduct and Ethics for Employees, Executive Officers and Directors
The Company Board has adopted a Code of Conduct and Ethics (the “Code of Ethics”) applicable to all of the Company’s employees, executive officers and directors. The Code of Ethics is available on the Company’s website at https://alphamodus.com/. Information contained on or accessible through the Company’s website is not a part of this prospectus, and the inclusion of the Company’s website address in this prospectus is an inactive textual reference only. The nominating and corporate governance committee of the Company Board will be responsible for overseeing the Code of Ethics and must approve any waivers of the Code of Ethics for employees, executive officers and directors. The Company expects that any amendments to the Code of Ethics, or any waivers of its requirements, will be disclosed on its website.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The following discussion and analysis of executive compensation arrangements should be read together with the compensation tables and related disclosures that follow. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are based on our current plans and expectations regarding future compensation programs. Actual compensation programs that we adopt may differ materially from the programs summarized in this discussion. The following discussion may also contain statements regarding corporate performance targets and goals. These targets and goals are disclosed in the limited context of our compensation programs and should not be understood to be statements of management’s expectations or estimates of results or other guidance. We specifically caution investors not to apply these statements to other contexts.
This section describes the material components of the executive compensation program for certain of Alpha Modus’ executive officers (the “Target NEOs”) and directors. This discussion may contain forward-looking statements that are based on Alpha Modus’ current plans, considerations, expectations and determinations regarding future compensation programs.
Alpha Modus intends to develop a compensation program that is designed to align executives’ compensation with Alpha Modus’ business objectives and the creation of stockholder value, while helping Alpha Modus to continue to attract, motivate and retain individuals who contribute to the long-term success of the company. Alpha Modus anticipates that compensation for its executive officers will have three primary components: base salary, an annual cash incentive bonus opportunity, and long-term equity-based incentive compensation.
Decisions on the design and implementation of the executive compensation program will be made by the compensation committee. The executive compensation program actually adopted will depend on the judgment of the members of the compensation committee.
Summary Compensation Table – Years Ended December 31, 2025, and 2024
The following table sets forth information concerning all cash and non-cash compensation awarded to, earned by or paid to the named persons for services rendered in all capacities during the noted periods. No other executive officers received total annual salary and bonus compensation in excess of $100,000.

No Alpha Modus executive officer named above had any unexercised options, stock that had not vested or equity incentive plan awards outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
| 51 |
Equity Incentive Plans
Long-Term Incentive Plans. Alpha Modus does not provide its officers or employees with pension, stock appreciation rights, long-term incentive or other plans, nor does it provide non-qualified deferred compensation to its officers or employees, and therefore, the Summary Compensation Table above does not include columns for nonequity incentive plan compensation and nonqualified deferred compensation earnings since there were none.
Employee Pension, Profit Sharing or other Retirement Plans. Alpha Modus does not have a defined benefit, pension plan, profit sharing or other retirement plan, although it may adopt one or more of such plans in the future.
Executive Employment Agreements
Effective as of closing of the Business Combination on December 13, 2024, we entered into an employment agreement with William Alessi to serve as our Chief Executive Officer. The agreement does not have a specified term. The agreement provides that Mr. Alessi will receive an initial annual base salary of $500,000 and is eligible for an annual performance-based cash bonus of up to 110% of Mr. Alessi’s base salary as determined by the Board, as well as annual grants of long-term incentive awards under and subject to the terms of the Company’s equity or other long-term incentive plans in effect from time to time, with the target value of such awards equaling 130% of Mr. Alessi’s base salary. The Company will have the right in its sole discretion to defer payment of cash compensation to Mr. Alessi until the Company shall have raised an aggregate of $10,000,000 in funding.

Defined Contribution Plans
As part of its overall compensation program, Alpha Modus provides all full-time employees, including each of the Target NEOs, with the opportunity to participate in a defined contribution 401(k) plan. The plan is intended to qualify under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code so that employee contributions and income earned on such contributions are not taxable to employees until withdrawn. Employees may elect to defer a percentage of their eligible compensation (not to exceed the statutorily prescribed annual limit) in the form of elective deferral contributions to the plan. The 401(k) plan also has a “catch-up contribution” feature for employees aged 50 or older (including those who qualify as “highly compensated” employees) who can defer amounts over the statutory limit that applies to all other employees. The Company does not currently make any matching or other contributions to participants’ accounts under the 401(k) plan.
Compensation of Directors
The key objective of our non-employee directors’ compensation program is to attract and retain highly qualified directors with the necessary skills, experience and character to oversee our management. We currently use equity-based compensation to partially compensate our directors due to our restricted cash flow position; however, we may in the future provide cash compensation to our directors. The use of equity-based compensation is designed to recognize the time commitment, expertise and potential liability relating to active Board service, while aligning the interests of our Board of Directors with the long-term interests of our shareholders.
In addition to the compensation provided to our non-employee directors, which is detailed below, each non-employee director is reimbursed for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attending in-person meetings of the Board of Directors and Board committees, as well for any fees incurred in attending continuing education courses for directors.
On January 2, 2025, the Company entered into director agreements with its non-employee members of the Board of Directors, Gregory Richter, Michael Garel, Scott Wattenberg, and William Ullman, to be considered effective as of closing of the Company’s business combination with Alpha Modus, Corp. (December 13, 2024), and pursuant to which the Company generally agreed to indemnify each of the non-employee directors to the broadest extent permitted by law and agreed to pay each non-employee director (i) $100,000 in common stock per annum, payable quarterly on the first day of each fiscal quarter and valued based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on December 13, 2024 (and the end of each fiscal quarter thereafter), and (ii) $25,000 in cash per annum, payable in quarterly installments. The Company intends to continue evaluating the compensation to be provided to its non-employee directors. None of the Company’s directors were compensated as directors during 2024. Director compensation during 2025 is summarized in the table below.

At the closing of the Business Combination, all outstanding shares of Class B common stock were converted into Class A common stock in accordance with the Amended and Restated Charter on a 1-for-1 basis, and all outstanding shares of common stock were Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, which shares are referred to herein as “common stock.”
Immediately after the Closing of the Business Combination, the Company had a total of 12,455,252 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
As of July 10, 2026, the Company had a total of 4,876,593 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
Common stockholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. Unless specified in the Amended and Restated Charter or the Company’s Bylaws, or as required by applicable provisions of the DGCL or applicable stock exchange rules, the affirmative vote of a majority of our shares of common stock that are voted is required to approve any such matter voted on by our stockholders.
Preferred Stock
The Amended and Restated Charter authorizes the issuance of 8,500,000 shares of preferred stock, 7,500,000 shares of which have been designated as Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred Stock”), and 1,000,000 shares of which will be undesignated.
The Series C Preferred Stock has the following rights:
| (i) | Ranking. The Series C Preferred Stock will rank senior to the IAC common stock and other classes of IAC preferred stock with respect to rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution. | |
| (ii) | Voting. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to the vote of IAC’s shareholders; | |
| (iii) | Dividends. The Series C Preferred Stock shall be treated pari passu with the IAC common stock except that the dividends per share payable on the Series C Preferred Stock shall equal the dividend per share declared on each share of IAC common stock multiplied by $10.00 (the “Face Value”) and divided by the applicable Conversion Price (as defined below). “Conversion Price” means a price per share equal to the lesser of either the Face Value, or (a) if no Trigger Event (as defined below) has occurred, 100% of the average of the 5 lowest closing bid prices of the IAC common stock during the 10 days preceding the conversion notice date (the “Measurement Period”), not to exceed 100% of the lowest sales price on the last day of the Measurement Period, or (b) following any Trigger Event, 50.0% of the average of the lowest closing bid prices of the common stock during the Measurement Period, not to exceed 50.0% of the lowest sales price on the last day of such Measurement Period. “Trigger Event” generally means (a) a failure of a holder of Series C Preferred Stock to receive conversion shares when required; (b) IAC’s violation of or failure to timely perform any covenant in the designation of the Series C Preferred Stock or any agreement between IAC and the Series C Preferred Stockholder that is either (x) related to the payment of cash or delivery of conversion shares, or (y) curable, has not occurred before, and is not cured within 5 trading days of notice; (c) IAC’s suspension from trading or delisting from its principal trading exchange or market; (d) notification of an intention for IAC or its transfer agent not to comply with a conversion notice; (e) IAC’s bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation or similar proceedings; (f) the appointment of a custodian, receiver or similar official for IAC; (g) the entry of judgments against IAC in excess of $500,000 which are not stayed or satisfied within 30 days of entry; (h) IAC’s failure to comply with reporting requirements of Securities Exchange Act; (i) the initiation of any regulatory, administrative or enforcement proceeding against IAC; or (j) any material provision of the designation of the Series C Preferred Stock ceases to be valid or is contested. |
| 59 |
| (iv) | Liquidation. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of IAC, holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall be paid the Face Value per share, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends (the “Liquidation Value”). | |
| (v) | Redemption. IAC shall be obligated to pay holders the Liquidation Value to redeem the Series C Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined below) or Trigger Event (as defined below). “Deemed Liquidation Event” generally means (a) a merger or consolidation where IAC or a subsidiary is a party to the merger and IAC issues shares of stock (except for domicile mergers and mergers not constituting a change of control); (b) IAC issues convertible or equity securities that senior to the Series C Preferred Stock in any respect; (c) a holder does not receive conversion shares upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock within 5 trading days due to the occurrence of an event that is solely within the control of IAC; (d) trading of the common stock is halted or suspended for 10 or more consecutive trading days due to the occurrence of an event that is solely within the control of IAC; or (e) a sale or other disposition of substantially all the assets of IAC that is not approved by the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock. | |
| (vi) | Conversion. Shares of Series C Preferred Stock are not convertible until 18 months following Closing of the Business Combination so long as a Trigger Event has not occurred. Beginning 18 months following Closing of the Business Combination, or following the occurrence of a Trigger Event, shares of Series C Preferred Stock are convertible at election of the holder at the then-applicable Conversion Price. |
The Amended and Restated Charter provides that shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Our board of directors will be authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, the relative, participating, optional or other special rights and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series of preferred stock. Our board of directors will be able to, without stockholder approval, issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the common stock and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of our board of directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of us or the removal of existing management. We have 0 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, and other preferred stock, outstanding as of July 10, 2026.
Warrants
Public Warrants
Each Public Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of Company common stock at a price of $460.00 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing 30 days after the Closing. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the Closing of the Business Combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
We will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Company common stock pursuant to the exercise of a Public Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the shares of Company common stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to our satisfying our obligations described below with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable and we will not be obligated to issue shares of Company common stock upon exercise of a warrant unless the Company common stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a Public Warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will we be required to net cash settle any warrant.
| 60 |
If a registration statement covering the shares of Company common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the Closing of the Business Combination, warrantholders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the Company common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective within a specified period following the Closing of the Business Combination, warrantholders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.
Once the Public Warrants become exercisable, we may call the warrants for redemption:
| ● | in whole and not in part; | |
| ● | at a price of $0.40 per warrant; | |
| ● | upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrantholder; and | |
| ● | if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Company common stock equals or exceeds $720.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days before we send the notice of redemption to the warrantholders. |
As of July 10, 2026, the sales price of the IAC Class A Common Stock did not exceed the threshold that would allow the Company to redeem the Public Warrants.
If and when the Public Warrants become redeemable by us, we may not exercise our redemption right if the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or we are unable to effect such registration or qualification.
We have established the last of the redemption criteria discussed above to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the call a significant premium to the warrant exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and we issue a notice of redemption of the Public Warrants, each warrantholder will be entitled to exercise its warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the Company common stock may fall below the $720.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) as well as the $460.00 warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.
If we call the Public Warrants for redemption as described above, our management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise its warrant to do so on a “cashless basis.” In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless basis,” our management will consider, among other factors, our cash position, the number of warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on our stockholders of issuing the maximum number of shares of Company common stock issuable upon the exercise of our warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, all holders of Public Warrants would pay the exercise price by surrendering their warrants for that number of shares of Company common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Company common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the Company common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, the notice of redemption will contain the information necessary to calculate the number of shares of Company common stock to be received upon exercise of the Public Warrants, including the “fair market value” in such case. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce the number of shares to be issued and thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a warrant redemption. We believe this feature is an attractive option to us if we do not need the cash from the exercise of the warrants after the Closing. If we call our Public Warrants for redemption and our management does not take advantage of this option, Sponsor and its permitted transferees would still be entitled to exercise their Private Placement Warrants for cash or on a cashless basis using the same formula described above that other warrantholders would have been required to use had all warrantholders been required to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis, as described in more detail below.
| 61 |
A holder of a Public Warrant may notify us in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the warrant agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (or such other amount as a holder may specify) of the shares of Company common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.
If the number of outstanding shares of Company common stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Company common stock, or by a split-up of shares of Company common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of shares of Company common stock issuable on exercise of each Public Warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding shares of Company common stock. A rights offering to holders of Company common stock entitling holders to purchase shares of Company common stock at a price less than the fair market value will be deemed a stock dividend of a number of shares of Company common stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company common stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for Company common stock) and (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of (x) the price per share of Company common stock paid in such rights offering divided by (y) the fair market value. For these purposes (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Company common stock, in determining the price payable for Company common stock, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) fair market value means the volume weighted average price of Company common stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the shares of Company common stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.
In addition, if we, at any time while the Public Warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of Company common stock on account of such shares of Company common stock (or other shares of our capital stock into which the warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described above, (b) certain ordinary cash dividends, (c) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of Company common stock in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, (d) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of Company common stock in connection with a stockholder vote to amend and restate the IAC Charter (i) for an extension, or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, or (e) in connection with the redemption of our public shares upon our failure to complete our initial business combination, then the warrant exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Company common stock in respect of such event.
If the number of outstanding shares of our Company common stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of shares of Company common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of Company common stock issuable on exercise of each Public Warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Company common stock.
Whenever the number of shares of Company common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the Public Warrants is adjusted, as described above, the warrant exercise price will be adjusted by multiplying the warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which will be the number of shares of Company common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of shares of Company common stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.
| 62 |
In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Company common stock (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such shares of Company common stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which we are the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of our outstanding shares of Company common stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of us as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which we are dissolved, the holders of the Public Warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the warrants and in lieu of the shares of our Company common stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the warrants would have received if such holder had exercised their warrants immediately prior to such event. If less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of Company common stock in such a transaction is payable in the form of Company common stock in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the registered holder of the warrant properly exercises the warrant within thirty days following public disclosure of such transaction, the warrant exercise price will be reduced as specified in the warrant agreement based on the Black-Scholes value (as defined in the warrant agreement) of the warrant. The purpose of such exercise price reduction is to provide additional value to holders of the warrants when an extraordinary transaction occurs during the exercise period of the warrants pursuant to which the holders of the warrants otherwise do not receive the full potential value of the warrants in order to determine and realize the option value component of the warrant. This formula is to compensate the warrantholder for the loss of the option value portion of the warrant due to the requirement that the warrantholder exercise the warrant within 30 days of the event. The Black-Scholes model is an accepted pricing model for estimating fair market value where no quoted market price for an instrument is available.
The Public Warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and IAC. You should review a copy of the warrant agreement, which has been publicly filed with the SEC and which you can find in the list of exhibits to this registration statement, for a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the warrants. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, but requires the approval by the holders of at least 65% of the then outstanding Public Warrants to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders of Public Warrants.
The Public Warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of warrants being exercised. The warrantholders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of Company common stock and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive shares of Company common stock. After the issuance of shares of Company common stock upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one (1) vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.
No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number of shares of Company common stock to be issued to the warrantholder.
Private Warrants
The private placement warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the private placement warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination (except, among other limited exceptions as described under “Principal Stockholders — Transfers of Founder Shares and Private Placement Warrants,” to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with the initial purchasers of the private placement warrants) and they will not be redeemable by us so long as they are held by the initial stockholders or their permitted transferees. The initial purchasers, or their permitted transferees, have the option to exercise the private placement warrants on a cashless basis. Except as described in this section, the private placement warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the warrants being sold as part of the units in this offering. If the private placement warrants are held by holders other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the private placement warrants will be redeemable by us for cash and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the warrants included in the units being sold in this offering.
| 63 |
If holders of the private placement warrants elect to exercise them on a cashless basis, they would pay the exercise price by surrendering his, her or its warrants for that number of shares of Class A common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Class A common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” of our Class A common stock (defined below) over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” will mean the average closing price of the Class A common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of warrant exercise is sent to the warrant agent. The reason that we have agreed that these warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees is because it is not known at this time whether they will be affiliated with us following a business combination. If they remain affiliated with us, their ability to sell our securities in the open market will be significantly limited. We expect to have policies in place that prohibit insiders from selling our securities except during specific periods of time. Even during such periods of time when insiders will be permitted to sell our securities, an insider cannot trade in our securities if he or she is in possession of material non-public information. Accordingly, unlike public stockholders who could exercise their warrants and sell the shares of Class A common stock received upon such exercise freely in the open market in order to recoup the cost of such exercise, the insiders could be significantly restricted from selling such securities. As a result, we believe that allowing the holders to exercise such warrants on a cashless basis is appropriate.
Our initial stockholders and the underwriters have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the private placement warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of any of these warrants) until the date that is 30 days after the date we complete our initial business combination, except that, among other limited exceptions, transfers can be made to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with the sponsor or the underwriters.
In addition, for as long as the private placement warrants are held by Cantor or Odeon or their respective designees or affiliates, they will be subject to the lock-up and registration rights limitations imposed by FINRA Rule 5110 and may not be exercised after five years from the commencement of sales of this offering.
Dividends
We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock to date. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial conditions. The payment of any cash dividends is within the discretion of our board of directors at such time. Further, if we incur any indebtedness, our ability to declare dividends may be limited by restrictive covenants we may agree to in connection therewith.
Our Transfer Agent and Warrant Agent
The transfer agent for our common stock and warrant agent for our warrants is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. We have agreed to indemnify Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company in its roles as transfer agent and warrant agent, its agents and each of its stockholders, directors, officers and employees against all claims and losses that may arise out of acts performed or omitted for its activities in that capacity, except for any liability due to any gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the indemnified person or entity.
| 64 |
Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law and the Amended and Restated Charter and Bylaws
We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL regulating corporate takeovers. This statute prevents certain Delaware corporations, under certain circumstances, from engaging in a “business combination” with:
| ● | a stockholder who owns 15% or more of the Company’s outstanding voting stock (otherwise known as an “interested stockholder”); | |
| ● | an affiliate of an interested stockholder; or | |
| ● | an associate of an interested stockholder, for three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder. |
A “business combination” includes a merger or sale of the Company’s assets with a market value of 10% or more of its aggregate market value of all of its assets or of all of its outstanding stock. However, the above provisions of Section 203 do not apply if:
| ● | the Company Board approves the transaction that made the stockholder an “interested stockholder,” prior to the date of the transaction; | |
| ● | after the completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, that stockholder owned at least 85% of the Company’s voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, other than statutorily excluded shares of common stock; or | |
| ● | on or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the initial business combination is approved by the Company Board and authorized at a meeting of the Company’s stockholders, and not by written consent, by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder. |
Under certain circumstances, Section 203 of the DGCL will make it more difficult for a person who would be an “interested stockholder” to effect various business combinations with the Company for a three-year period. This provision may encourage companies interested in acquiring the Company to negotiate in advance with the Company Board because the stockholder approval requirement would be avoided if the Company Board approves either the business combination or the transaction which results in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder. Section 203 of the DGCL also may have the effect of preventing changes in the Company Board and may make it more difficult to accomplish transactions which stockholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interests.
The Amended and Restated Charter provided that the Company Board is classified into three classes of directors. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gain control of the Company Board only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual meetings.
Authorized but Unissued Shares
The Company’s authorized but unissued common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuances without stockholder approval (including a specified future issuance) and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of the Company by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.
Exclusive forum for certain lawsuits
The Amended and Restated Charter requires, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that derivative actions brought in the Company’s name, actions against any current or former directors, officers, employees or stockholders of the Company for breach of fiduciary duty and other similar actions may be brought only in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware or if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the federal district court of the State of Delaware. The Amended and Restated Charter also requires, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the federal district courts of the United States to be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action under the Securities Act. Although we believe these provisions benefit us by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies, a court may determine that these provisions are unenforceable, and to the extent they are enforceable, the provisions may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against the Company’s directors and officers, although the Company stockholders will not be deemed to have waived the Company’s compliance with federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.
| 65 |
Special meeting of stockholders
The Bylaws provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by a resolution adopted by the Company Board.
Advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals and director nominations
The Bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at Company’s annual meeting of stockholders, must provide timely notice of their intent in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice will need to be received by the company secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices not later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the opening of business on the 120th day prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders. Pursuant to Rule 14A-8 of the Exchange Act, proposals seeking inclusion in the Company’s annual proxy statement must comply with the notice periods contained therein. The Bylaws also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholders’ meeting. These provisions may preclude the Company’s stockholders from bringing matters before the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders.
Action by written consent
Any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual and special meeting of stockholders under Delaware law may be taken only upon the vote of stockholders at an annual or special meeting duly noticed and called in accordance of the DGCL and may not be taken by written consent of the stockholders without a meeting.
Classified Board of Directors
The Company Board is divided into three classes, Class A, Class B and Class C, with members of each class serving staggered three-year terms. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gain control of the Company Board only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual meetings. The Amended and Restated Charter and the Company’s Bylaws provide that the authorized number of directors may be changed only by resolution of the board of directors. Subject to the terms of any preferred stock, any or all of the directors may be removed from office at any time, but only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of Company capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. Any vacancy on the Company Board, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of the Company Board, may be filled only by vote of a majority of the Company’s directors then in office.
Listing of Securities
Our common stock and Public Warrants are currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “AMOD” and “AMODW,” respectively.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of July 10, 2026, for (i) each of our named executive officers and directors; (ii) all of our named executive officers and directors as a group; and (iii) each other shareholder known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our outstanding common stock.
Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with SEC rules and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. For purposes of this table, a person or group of persons is deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of any shares of common stock that such person or any member of such group has the right to acquire within sixty (60) days thereafter. For purposes of computing the percentage of outstanding shares of our common stock held by each person or group of persons named above, any shares that such person or persons has the right to acquire within sixty (60) days are deemed to be outstanding for such person, but not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The inclusion herein of any shares listed as beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership by any person.
The percentages below are calculated based on 4,876,593 shares of our Common Stock, and no shares of Series C Preferred Stock, issued and outstanding as of July 10, 2026. Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each beneficial owner listed in the table below is c/o our company, Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc., 20311 Chartwell Center Dr., #1469, Cornelius, NC, 28031.

SELLING SECURITYHOLDER
We are registering the offer and sale of these securities to satisfy registration rights we have granted to the Selling Securityholder. The Selling Securityholder may offer and sell, from time to time, any or all of the shares of common stock offered for resale by this prospectus, which consists of (i) up to 3,550,000 shares of common stock issuable to the Selling Securityholder under the Pre-Paid Purchases, and (ii) 450,000 shares of common stock that constitute Pre-Delivery Shares issued to the Selling Securityholder.
The Selling Securityholder may from time to time offer and sell any or all of the shares of common stock set forth below pursuant to this prospectus. In this prospectus, the term “Selling Securityholder” includes (i) the entity identified in the table below (as such table may be amended from time to time by means of an amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part or by a supplement to this prospectus), and (ii) any donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest that acquire any of the securities covered by this prospectus after the date of this prospectus from the named Selling Securityholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other non-sale related transfer.
The following tables provide, as of the date of this prospectus, information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock of the Selling Securityholder, the number of shares of common stock that may be sold by the Selling Securityholder under this prospectus and that the Selling Securityholder will beneficially own after this offering. The immediately following table also sets forth the percentage of common stock beneficially owned by a Selling Securityholder after giving effect to the sale by the Selling Securityholder of all offered securities, based on 4,876,593 shares of common stock outstanding on July 10, 2026.
For purposes of the table below, the Company has assumed that (i) no holders of Public Warrants or Private Placement Warrants exercise any of the outstanding Warrants, (ii) after termination of this offering, none of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus will be beneficially owned by the Selling Securityholder, and (iii) the Selling Securityholder will not acquire beneficial ownership of any additional securities during the offering. In addition, we assume that the Selling Securityholder has not sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, our securities in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
We cannot advise you as to whether the Selling Securityholder will in fact sell any or all of such common stock. In addition, the Selling Securityholder may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, common stock in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date of this prospectus.
Sales by the Selling Securityholder may cause the trading prices of our securities to experience a further decline. Since some of our stockholders purchased shares at prices above the recent trading prices for shares of our common stock, some of our stockholders may not experience a positive rate of return if they were to sell at the same prices as the Selling Securityholder.
Selling Securityholder information for each additional Selling Securityholder, if any, will be set forth in a prospectus supplement to the extent required prior to the time of any offer or sale of such Selling Securityholder’s securities pursuant to this prospectus. Any prospectus supplement may add, update, substitute, or change the information contained in this prospectus, including the identity of the Selling Securityholder and the number of shares of common stock registered on its behalf.
Please see the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” for further information regarding the Selling Securityholder’s method of distributing these shares of common stock.

U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS
The following is a discussion of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of shares of common stock. This discussion is limited to certain U.S. federal income tax considerations to beneficial owners of the common stock who are initial purchasers of such common stock pursuant to this offering and hold the common stock as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
This summary is based upon U.S. federal income tax laws as of the date of this prospectus, which is subject to change or differing interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. This discussion is a summary only and does not describe all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to you in light of your particular circumstances, including but not limited to the alternative minimum tax, the Medicare tax on certain net investment income and the different consequences that may apply if you are subject to special rules that apply to certain types of investors, including but not limited to:
| ● | financial institutions or financial services entities; | |
| ● | broker-dealers; | |
| ● | governments or agencies or instrumentalities thereof; | |
| ● | regulated investment companies; | |
| ● | real estate investment trusts; | |
| ● | expatriates or former long-term residents of the United States; | |
| ● | persons that actually or constructively own five percent or more (by vote or value) of our shares; | |
| ● | persons subject to the “applicable financial statement” accounting rules under Section 451(b) of the Code; | |
| ● | persons that acquired our common stock pursuant to an exercise of employee share options, in connection with employee share incentive plans or otherwise as compensation; | |
| ● | insurance companies; | |
| ● | dealers or traders subject to a mark-to-market method of accounting with respect to our common stock; | |
| ● | persons holding our common stock as part of a “straddle,” constructive sale, hedge, conversion or other integrated or similar transaction; | |
| ● | U.S. Holders (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar; | |
| ● | partnerships (or entities or arrangements classified as partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes) and any beneficial owners of such partnerships; | |
| ● | tax-exempt entities; | |
| ● | controlled foreign corporations; and | |
| ● | passive foreign investment companies. |
If a partnership (including an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership or other pass-thru entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds our common stock, the tax treatment of a partner, member or other beneficial owner in such partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner, member or other beneficial owner, the activities of the partnership and certain determinations made at the partner, member or other beneficial owner level. If you are a partner, member or other beneficial owner of a partnership holding our common stock, you are urged to consult your tax advisor regarding the tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our common stock.
This discussion is based on the Code, and administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions and final, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations as of the date hereof, which are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis, and changes to any of which subsequent to the date of this prospectus may affect the tax consequences described herein. This discussion does not address any aspect of state, local or non-U.S. taxation, or any U.S. federal taxes other than income taxes (such as gift and estate taxes).
We have not sought, and do not expect to seek, a ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) as to any U.S. federal income tax consequence described herein. The IRS may disagree with the discussion herein, and its determination may be upheld by a court. Moreover, there can be no assurance that future legislation, regulations, administrative rulings or court decisions will not adversely affect the accuracy of the statements in this discussion. You are urged to consult your tax advisor with respect to the application of U.S. federal tax laws to your particular situation, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign jurisdiction.
THIS DISCUSSION IS ONLY A SUMMARY OF CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF OUR COMMON STOCK. EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR IN OUR COMMON STOCK IS URGED TO CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH INVESTOR OF THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF OUR COMMON STOCK, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF ANY U.S. FEDERAL NON-INCOME, STATE, LOCAL, AND NON-U.S. TAX LAWS.
| 69 |
U.S. Holders
This section applies to you if you are a “U.S. Holder.” A U.S. Holder is a beneficial owner of our common stock who or that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:
| ● | an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States; | |
| ● | a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation) organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; | |
| ● | an estate the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source; or | |
| ● | a trust, if (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more United States persons (as defined in the Code) have authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (ii) it has a valid election in effect under Treasury Regulations to be treated as a United States person. |
Taxation of Distributions. If we pay distributions in cash or other property (other than certain distributions of our stock or rights to acquire our stock) to U.S. Holders of shares of our common stock, such distributions generally will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits will constitute a return of capital that will be applied against and reduce (but not below zero) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in our common stock. Any remaining excess will be treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of our common stock and will be treated as described under “U.S. Holders — Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock” below.
Dividends we pay to a U.S. Holder that is a taxable corporation generally will qualify for the dividends received deduction if the requisite holding period is satisfied. With certain exceptions (including, but not limited to, dividends treated as investment income for purposes of investment interest deduction limitations), and provided certain holding period requirements are met, dividends we pay to a non-corporate U.S. Holder may constitute “qualified dividend income” that will be subject to tax at the maximum tax rate accorded to long-term capital gains. If the holding period requirements are not satisfied, then a corporation may not be able to qualify for the dividends received deduction and would have taxable income equal to the entire dividend amount, and non-corporate U.S. Holders may be subject to tax on such dividend at regular ordinary income tax rates instead of the preferential rate that applies to qualified dividend income.
Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Our Common Stock. Upon a sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the common stock. Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the common stock so disposed of exceeds one year. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. Holders may be eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.
Generally, the amount of gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder is an amount equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property received in such disposition and (ii) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its common stock exchanged. A U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its common stock generally will equal the U.S. Holder’s acquisition cost less any prior distributions treated as a return of capital.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding. In general, information reporting requirements may apply to dividends paid to a U.S. Holder and to the proceeds of the sale or other disposition of our common stock, unless the U.S. Holder is an exempt recipient. Backup withholding may apply to such payments if the U.S. Holder fails to provide a taxpayer identification number, a certification of exempt status or has been notified by the IRS that it is subject to backup withholding (and such notification has not been withdrawn).
| 70 |
Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a credit against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.
Non-U.S. Holders
This section applies to you if you are a “Non-U.S. Holder.” As used herein, the term “Non-U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of our common stock who or that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:
| ● | a non-resident alien individual (other than certain former citizens and residents of the United States subject to U.S. tax as expatriates); | |
| ● | a foreign corporation; or | |
| ● | an estate or trust that is not a U.S. Holder; |
but generally does not include an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the disposition of our common stock. If you are such an individual, you should consult your tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership or sale or other disposition of our common stock.
Taxation of Distributions. In general, any distributions we make to a Non-U.S. Holder of shares of our common stock, to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, provided such dividends are not effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States, we will be required to withhold tax from the gross amount of the dividend at a rate of 30%, unless such Non-U.S. Holder is eligible for a reduced rate of withholding tax under an applicable income tax treaty and provides proper certification of its eligibility for such reduced rate (usually on an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E). Any distribution not constituting a dividend will be treated first as reducing (but not below zero) the Non-U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its shares of our common stock and, to the extent such distribution exceeds the Non-U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis, as gain realized from the sale or other disposition of the common stock, which will be treated as described under “Non-U.S. Holders — Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Our Common Stock” below. In addition, if we determine that we are likely to be classified as a “United States real property holding corporation” (see “Non-U.S. Holders — Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Our Common Stock” below), we generally will withhold 15% of any distribution that exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits.
The withholding tax generally does not apply to dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder who provides a Form W-8ECI, certifying that the dividends are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States. Instead, the effectively connected dividends will be subject to regular U.S. federal income tax as if the Non-U.S. Holder were a U.S. resident, subject to an applicable income tax treaty providing otherwise. A corporate Non-U.S. Holder receiving effectively connected dividends may also be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” imposed at a rate of 30% (or a lower applicable treaty rate).
| 71 |
Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Our Common Stock. A Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax in respect of gain recognized on a sale, taxable exchange or other taxable disposition of our common stock unless:
● the gain is effectively connected with the conduct by the Non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business within the United States (and, under certain income tax treaties, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by the Non-U.S. Holder); or we are or have been a “United States real property holding corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of disposition or the period that the Non-U.S. Holder held our common stock, and, in the case where shares of our common stock are regularly traded on an established securities market, the Non-U.S. Holder has owned, directly or constructively, more than 5% of our common stock at any time within the shorter of the five-year period preceding the disposition or such Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period for the shares of our common stock. There can be no assurance that our common stock will be treated as regularly traded on an established securities market for this purpose.
Unless an applicable treaty provides otherwise, gain described in the first bullet point above will be subject to tax at generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rates as if the Non-U.S. Holder were a U.S. resident. Any gains described in the first bullet point above of a Non-U.S. Holder that is a foreign corporation may also be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” imposed at a 30% rate (or lower treaty rate).
If the second bullet point above applies to a Non-U.S. Holder, gain recognized by such holder on the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common stock will be subject to tax at generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rates. In addition, a buyer of our common stock from such holder may be required to withhold U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 15% of the amount realized upon such disposition. We will be classified as a United States real property holding corporation if the fair market value of our “United States real property interests” equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of our worldwide real property interests plus our other assets used or held for use in a trade or business, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We do not expect to be a United States real property holding corporation immediately after the Business Combination is completed.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding. Information returns will be filed with the IRS in connection with payments of dividends and may be filed with respect to the proceeds from a sale or other disposition of shares of common stock. A Non-U.S. Holder may have to comply with certification procedures to establish that it is not a United States person in order to avoid information reporting and backup withholding requirements. The certification procedures required to claim a reduced rate of withholding under a treaty generally will satisfy the certification requirements necessary to avoid the backup withholding as well. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a Non-U.S. Holder will be allowed as a credit against such holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.
FATCA Withholding Taxes. Provisions commonly referred to as “FATCA” impose withholding of 30% on payments of dividends on our common stock to “foreign financial institutions” (which is broadly defined for this purpose and in general includes investment vehicles) and certain other non-U.S. entities unless various U.S. information reporting and due diligence requirements (generally relating to ownership by United States persons of interests in or accounts with those entities) have been satisfied by, or an exemption applies to, the payee (typically certified as to by the delivery of a properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN-E). Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules. Under certain circumstances, a Non-U.S. Holder might be eligible for refunds or credits of such withholding taxes, and a Non-U.S. Holder might be required to file a U.S. federal income tax return to claim such refunds or credits. Thirty percent withholding under FATCA was scheduled to apply to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of property that produces U.S.-source interest or dividends beginning on January 1, 2019, but on December 13, 2018, the IRS released proposed regulations that, if finalized in their proposed form, would eliminate the obligation to withhold on gross proceeds. Such proposed regulations also delayed withholding on certain other payments received from other foreign financial institutions that are allocable, as provided for under final Treasury regulations, to payments of U.S.-source dividends, and other fixed or determinable annual or periodic income. Although these proposed Treasury regulations are not final, taxpayers generally may rely on them until final Treasury regulations are issued. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the effects of FATCA on their investment in our common stock.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We are registering the shares of common stock issuable to Streeterville Capital, LLC (the “Selling Securityholder” or the “Investor”) under one or more Secured Pre-Paid Purchases in the aggregate purchase amount of up to $10,000,000 for the purchase of common stock (each a “Pre-Paid Purchase” and collectively the “Pre-Paid Purchases,” and such shares issuable under the Pre-Paid Purchases the “Pre-Paid Purchase Shares”), and (ii) 450,000 shares of common stock that constitute pre-delivery shares (the “Pre-Delivery Shares”) issued to the Selling Securityholder.
We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the Selling Securityholder of the shares of common stock. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the shares of common stock.
The Selling Securityholder and any of its pledgees, assignees, transferees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the principal trading market for such securities or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Securityholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:
| ● | ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits subscribers; | |
| ● | block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; | |
| ● | purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; | |
| ● | an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; | |
| ● | privately negotiated transactions; | |
| ● | settlement of short sales; | |
| ● | in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Securityholder to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security; | |
| ● | in “at the market” offerings, as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, at negotiated prices, at prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, including sales made directly on a national securities exchange or sales made through a market maker other than on an exchange or other similar offerings through sales agents; | |
| ● | through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; | |
| ● | through a combination of any such methods of sale; or |
| ● | any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The Selling Securityholder may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Securityholder may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Securityholder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the Subscriber of securities, from the Subscriber) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.
| 73 |
In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Securityholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Securityholder may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Securityholder may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The Selling Securityholder and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Securityholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.
The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Securityholder against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect, or (ii) they may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions, as determined by the Company. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock or Public Warrants for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Securityholder will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the common stock or Public Warrants by the Selling Securityholder or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Securityholder and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each Subscriber at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).
LEGAL MATTERS
Certain legal matters relating to the validity of the common stock to be issued hereunder will be passed upon for the Company by Brunson Chandler & Jones, PLLC, of Salt Lake City, Utah.
EXPERTS
The financial statements of Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc. as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and for the year then ended, included in this prospectus have been so included in reliance on the report, which contains an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, of MaloneBailey, LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, given on the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting.
Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
On December 18, 2024, the Company informed WithumSmith+Brown, PC (“Withum”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm prior to the Transactions, of its dismissal as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Company’s Audit Committee participated in and approved the determination to dismiss Withum. The report of Withum on IAC’s financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainties, audit scope or accounting principles.
| 74 |
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the subsequent period through December 18, 2024, there were no disagreements with Withum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosures or audited scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to Withum’s satisfaction would have caused Withum to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the subsequent period through December 18, 2024, there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act, other than the material weaknesses in internal controls identified by IAC’s management, in consultation with its advisors, related to the Company’s inability to timely file periodic reports, the manner in which an amount due to shareholders was accounted for, the over withdrawal of trust funds, the incorrect transfer of funds to the Sponsor’s account, and restatement of prior period financial statements, as described in Item 9A. Controls and Procedures in IAC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on May 14, 2024, and Item 4. Controls and Procedures of the Company’s subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. The Company has authorized Withum to respond fully to the inquiries of the successor accountant.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern Matter
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

ALPHA MODUS HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2025
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Company Background
Alpha Modus Corp. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or “Alpha Modus”), was incorporated in the State of Florida on July 11, 2014.
Nature of Operations
Alpha Modus was founded as an artificial intelligence software as a service provider. As of January 2020, Alpha Modus abandoned its software and deemed it not technologically feasible. Since that time, the Company has focused on developing its patents. Alpha Modus was awarded US Patent No. 10,360,571 (the “571 Patent”) on July 23, 2019. Since August 2019, Alpha Modus has focused on research and development to expand claims of the 571 Patent. The Company began commercialization efforts of the 571 Patent family in 2024.
Business Combination
On December 13, 2024, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement consummated the Business Combination. Immediately upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Alpha Modus, Corp. (“Alpha Modus”) became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, the Company changed its name to “Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc.,” (“Holdings”). In accordance with ASC 805, in a business combination, one of the combining entities shall be identified as the accounting acquirer. Management evaluated ASC 805-10-55-11 through 55-15 to make this determination. Management assessed the various criteria to identify the accounting acquirer; form of consideration, relative voting rights, large minority interest, composition of the governing body, composition of management, terms of the exchange of equity interests and relative size. Management determined that Alpha Modus would be the accounting acquirer, based on the voting rights after the combination, large minority interest, composition of board and management and relative size. Management evaluated which entity constituted a business based on the assets acquired and liabilities assumed along with the inputs and processes of the entities. Management determined that Alpha Modus constitutes a business and that the substance of the transaction is a recapitalization of Alpha Modus often referred to as a reverse recapitalization. Accordingly, the merger will be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Under this method of accounting, Holdings will be treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. The net assets of Holdings will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the merger will be those of Alpha Modus. All periods prior to the Merger have been retrospectively adjusted using the Exchange Ratio for the equivalent number of shares outstanding immediately after the Closing to effect the reverse recapitalization.
In the Business Combination, the Company issued shares of common stock and shares of Series C Preferred Stock to Legacy Alpha Modus’ shareholders as merger consideration in the Business Combination, and the Company issued shares of common stock to various parties as required by the Business Combination Agreement. Immediately following the Business Combination there were shares of the Company’s common stock (all Class A common stock) issued and outstanding, and shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.
Risks and Uncertainties
On
August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for,
among other things, a new U.S. federal
| F-7 |
Any share redemption or other share repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise will depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury.
During
the second quarter of 2024, the Internal Revenue Service issued final regulations with respect to the timing and payment of the excise
tax. These regulations provided that the filing and payment deadline for any liability incurred during the period from January 1, 2023
to December 31, 2023 would be October 31, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating its options with respect to this obligation. Any
amount of such excise tax not paid in full, will be subject to additional interest and penalties which are currently estimated at
While
we previously believed that the Excise Tax may have applied to redemptions of our Class A common stock in connection with our Business
Combination completed in 2024, based on the November 24, 2025, final regulations, we no longer believe the Excise Tax applies to the
Company’s prior common stock redemptions, since those redemptions occurred solely with respect to redeemable stock issued by the
Company in its original IPO in September 2021, such that those redemptions are not treated as stock repurchases for purposes of IRC Section
4501 because that stock was outstanding prior to August 16, 2022. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2025, the Company’s financial
statements reflect the removal of the Excise Tax liability of $
If our conclusions regarding the applicability of the transition relief provided by the November 24, 2025, final regulations described above are incorrect, we could still be subject to liability arising from the Excise Tax.
NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and has a year-end of December 31st.
Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company’s system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that 1) recorded transactions are valid; 2) valid transactions are recorded; and 3) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods being presented.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
| F-8 |
Liquidity and Going Concern
We
have incurred recurring losses since inception and expect to continue to incur losses. On December 31, 2025, we had $
Cash and Cash Equivalent
Cash
is comprised of cash balances. Cash is held at major financial institutions and is subject to credit risk to the extent that those balances
exceed applicable Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance amounts of $
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution,
which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable is comprised of uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluation of its customers and management closely monitors outstanding receivables based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, and other information. The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reviewed periodically for collectability. If management determines that collection is unlikely, an allowance that reflects management’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected is recorded.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC 606. The Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) 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. The Company applies the five-step model to arrangements that meet the definition of a contract under Topic 606, including when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of Topic 606, the Company evaluates the goods or services promised within each contract related performance obligation and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company recognizes as revenue, the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.
Revenue recognition occurs at the time sales are recorded by the customers, in accordance with royalty agreements, provided there are no material remaining performance obligations required of the Company or any matters of customer acceptance.
Patent Infringement Income
The Company has determined that income derived from patent infringement settlements are not in line with the Company’s main revenue stream of patent royalties and that these patent infringement settlements should be recorded as other income. If funds are received by the Company’s legal counsel and legal fees are withheld from these funds, then the income would be reported as the net amount received by the Company from its legal counsel. Any funds received directly by the Company will be recorded at the gross amount received, with any related legal fees paid would be recorded as legal fees.
| F-9 |
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. The more significant accounting estimates included in these consolidated financial statements are the determination of the fair value of the warrant liabilities, earnout shares and sponsor earnout shares, preferred series C stock and excise tax payable. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under the FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” equals or approximates the carrying amounts represented in the consolidated balance sheets, except for the derivative liabilities (see Note 8).
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers consist of:
| ● | Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets; | |
| ● | Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and | |
| ● | Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. |
In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Derivative Liabilities
The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants and the forward purchase agreement, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC 480 and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.
The warrants issued in the Initial Public Offering (the “Public Warrants”) and the Private Placement Warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“ASC 820”), the Company recognizes the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the carrying value of the instruments to fair value at each reporting period for so long as they are outstanding. At the date of the merger, the initial fair value of the Public Warrants issued in connection with the Public Offering and the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants have been estimated using a Black-Scholes model. Subsequently, the fair value of the Public Warrants issued in connection with the Public Offering and the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants have been estimated using this same Black-Scholes model. Derivative warrant liabilities are classified as current liabilities (See note 6 for more details on warrants).
The company earnout shares and sponsor earnout shares (“earnout shares”) as defined in the business combination agreement are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“ASC 820”), the Company recognizes the earnout shares instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the carrying value of the instruments to fair value at each reporting period for so long as they are outstanding. At the date of the merger, the initial fair value of the earnout shares have been estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Subsequently, the fair value of the earnout shares have been estimated using this same Monte Carlo simulation model. Derivative earnout shares liabilities are classified as current liabilities (See note 7 for more details on earnout shares).
| F-10 |
Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the year as defined by FASB, ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. The Company has and dilutive shares of common stock derived from six convertible notes and the series C preferred stock as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
The calculation of diluted net (loss) income does not consider the effect of the warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering and the private placement warrants to purchase an aggregate of shares of Class A common stock and the earnout shares and sponsor earnout shares as defined in the business combination agreement an aggregate of shares of Class A common stock in the calculation of diluted (loss) income per share, because their exercise is contingent upon future events and their inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method.

Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and loss carryforwards and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income (loss) in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rules on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in operations in the year of change. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is “more likely-than-not” that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
| F-11 |
Tax benefits of uncertain tax positions are recognized only if it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to sustain a position taken on an income tax return. The Company has no liability for uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. Interest and penalties in any, related to unrecognized tax benefits would be recognized as interest expense. The Company does not have any accrued interest or penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any significant interest expense recognized during the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Stock-Based Compensation
For stock-based transactions, compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period, based on the estimated fair value on the grant date of the award.
Notes Payable
The Company issued various notes payable to related parties. These notes payable included original issue discounts and debt issuance costs.
Original issue discounts. The Company accounts for the original issue discounts in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 835-30, Interest and Imputation of Interest, which requires the Company to record the discount as a contra-liability and amortize it over the term of the underlying note using the interest method.
Debt issuance costs. The Company accounts for debt issuance costs in accordance with ASC No. 470-20, Debt, which requires the Company to recognize a contra-liability for costs incurred with the issuance of debt instruments. These contra-liabilities are amortized over the term of the underlying note payable using the interest method.
Related Parties
In accordance with ASC 850 “Related Party Disclosure”, a party is considered to be related to the Company if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal with if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
Series C Preferred Stock
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company amended and restated its charter to include the designation of a Series C Preferred Stock. The Amended and Restated Charter authorizes the issuance of shares of preferred stock, shares of which have been designated as Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred Stock”), and shares of which will be undesignated. Based on the characteristics and rights of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Company is reporting it as Mezzanine Equity (Temporary Equity) on its consolidated balance sheets. These shares were valued at the date of issuance using a Monte Carlo Simulation model. The Company determined that subsequent changes to the carrying value of the series C preferred shares will not be recognized until Redemption becomes probable of occurring. Alpha Modus shall be obligated to pay holders the Liquidation Value to redeem the Series C Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined below) or Trigger Event (as defined below). “Deemed Liquidation Event” generally means (a) a merger or consolidation where Alpha Modus or a subsidiary is a party to the merger and Alpha Modus issues shares of stock (except for domicile mergers and mergers not constituting a change of control); (b) Alpha Modus issues convertible or equity securities that senior to the Series C Preferred Stock in any respect; (c) a holder does not receive conversion shares upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock within 5 trading days due to the occurrence of an event that is solely within the control of Alpha Modus; (d) trading of the common stock is halted or suspended for 10 or more consecutive trading days due to the occurrence of an event that is solely within the control of Alpha Modus; or (e) a sale or other disposition of substantially all the assets of Alpha Modus that is not approved by the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock. See Note 9 – Mezzanine Equity and Note 10 – Stockholders’ Equity for further details.

As
of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has
Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional Public Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Public Warrants will trade. The Public Warrants will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination; provided that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permits holders to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis and such cashless exercise is exempt from registration under the Securities Act). The Company agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of the initial Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file with the SEC and have an effective registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed. If a registration statement covering the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the closing of the initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above, if the Company’s shares of Class A common stock are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elect, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event the Company does not so elect, it will use its best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, except as set forth below, the Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the Sponsor, the underwriters or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the Sponsor, the underwriters or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

The stockholders of Alpha Modus, Corp. may be issued up to additional shares of Company common stock (the “Earnout Shares”). The Earnout Shares will be earned and issued in one-third (1/3) increments (of approximately shares) if, for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30)-consecutive trading day period beginning at least 180 days after the Closing and on or prior to the 5-year anniversary of the Closing, the VWAP of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $ per share, $ per share and $ per share (as equitably adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and the like after the Closing), respectively, with all remaining Earnout Shares earned and issued upon certain changes of control of the Company at or prior to the 5-year anniversary of the Closing.
Additionally, at the Closing, the Company’s sponsor, Insight Acquisition Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) was required to deposit shares of Company common stock into escrow (the “Sponsor Earnout Shares”), and the Sponsor Earnout Shares will be released to the Sponsor according to the same milestones and timelines applicable to the Earnout Shares described above (earned and issued in one-third (1/3) increments of approximately shares).
“Closing Share Price” means, for any security as of any date(s), the dollar volume-weighted average price for such security on the principal securities exchange or securities market on which such security is then traded during the period beginning at 9:30:01 a.m., New York time, and ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg through its “HP” function (set to weighted average) or, if the foregoing does not apply, the dollar volume-weighted average price of such security in the over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin board for such security during the period beginning at 9:30:01 a.m., New York time and ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no dollar volume-weighted average price is reported for such security by Bloomberg for such hours, the average of the highest closing bid price and the lowest closing ask price of any of the market makers for such security as reported by OTC Markets Group Inc. If the Closing Share Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date(s) on any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Share Price of such security on such date(s) shall be the fair market value per share on such date(s) as reasonably determined by the Company.
If the condition for more than one Milestone is achieved, the Company Earnout Shares to be issued in connection with such Milestone shall be cumulative with any Company Earnout Shares earned prior to such time and the Escrowed Sponsor Shares to be released from escrow to Sponsor shall be cumulative with any Escrowed Sponsor Shares released prior to such time in connection with the achievement of any other Milestone; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company Earnout Shares in respect of each Milestone will be issued and earned only once and the aggregate Company Earnout Shares issued shall in no event exceed shares of Class A Common Stock.
| F-20 |
If, at or following the 5-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the $ Share Price Milestone, $ Share Price Milestone and/or the $ Share Price Milestone have not occurred, none of the Earnout Shares that related to that particular Milestone shall be issued, and the Escrowed Sponsor Shares that have not been released from escrow to Sponsor shall automatically without further action be forfeited and deemed cancelled.
In the event that after the Closing and prior the 5-year anniversary of the Closing Date, there is a Change of Control, the $ Share Price Milestone, $ Share Price Milestone, and/or the $ Share Price Milestone, as applicable, shall be deemed to have occurred to the extent any such Milestone has not been achieved prior to the date of such Change of Control. For purposes hereof, a “Change of Control” means the occurrence in a single transaction or as a result of a series of related transactions, of one or more of the following events:
a. any person or any group of persons acting together which would constitute a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or any successor provisions thereto (a “Group”) (excluding a corporation or other entity owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of IAC) (x) is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than 50% of the combined voting power of then outstanding voting securities or (y) has or acquires control of the Board;
b. a merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar business combination transaction involving the Company, and, immediately after the consummation of such transaction or series of transactions, either (x) the Board immediately prior to the merger or consolidation does not constitute at least a majority of the board of directors of the company surviving the merger or, if the surviving company is a Subsidiary, the ultimate parent thereof, or (y) the voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation do not continue to represent or are not converted into more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the person resulting from such transaction or series of transactions or, if the surviving company is a Subsidiary, the ultimate parent thereof; or
c. the sale, lease or other disposition, directly or indirectly, by the Company of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, other than such sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to an entity at least a majority of the combined voting power of the voting securities of which are owned, directly or indirectly, by stockholders of the Company.
If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time, after the date hereof effect a subdivision, stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, combination, recapitalization or similar transaction affecting the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, the number of Earnout Shares issuable hereunder (and the number of Escrowed Sponsor Shares to be released), and the stock price targets set forth above shall be equitably adjusted for such subdivision, stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, combination, recapitalization or similar transaction. Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective (which shall be the “ex” date, if any, with respect to any such event).

NOTE 9 – MEZZANINE EQUITY
Series C Preferred Stock
On December 13, 2024 as part of the business combination, the Company issued shares of series C preferred stock to Legacy Alpha Modus shareholders in exchange for the same number of Legacy Alpha Modus’ common stock. Management reviewed ASC 480, ASC 805, ASC 815, ASC 820 and ASC 825 to determine the proper treatment of the series C preferred shares. Management concluded that the series C preferred shares qualify as temporary equity under ASC 815; therefore, the Company will recognize the series C preferred shares within mezzanine equity in its balance sheet. In accordance with ASC 480, the series C preferred shares will be initially recorded and measured at fair value; however, when estimating the fair value of the series C preferred shares, the Company has followed the guidance in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement”. Because Redemption is contingent upon the occurrence of certain events that have not been met, subsequent changes to the carrying value of the series C preferred shares will not be recognized until Redemption becomes probable of occurring.
In the consolidated financial statements, the series C preferred shares are being presented as being issued in 2023 when a Legacy Alpha Modus shareholder converted Legacy Alpha Modus series B preferred shares in preparation for the pending business combination. The consolidated financial statements reflect the shares of series B preferred stock converting into shares of series C preferred stock and shares of class A common stock.
On June 30, 2025, the Company issued shares of common stock for the conversion of shares of preferred series C stock. These shares carrying value was $, which was moved from mezzanine equity to shareholders’ equity. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were and shares of series C preferred stock issued and outstanding, respectively.

| II. | Voting. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to the vote of Alpha Modus’ shareholders; |
| III. | Dividends.
The Series C Preferred Stock shall be treated pari passu with the Alpha Modus common stock except that the dividends per share payable on
the Series C Preferred Stock shall equal the dividend per share declared on each share of Alpha Modus common stock multiplied by $ (the
“Face Value”) and divided by the applicable Conversion Price (as defined below). “Conversion Price” means
a price per share equal to the lesser of either the Face Value, or | |
| IV. | Liquidation. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Alpha Modus, holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall be paid the Face Value per share, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends (the “Liquidation Value”). | |
| V. | Redemption. Alpha Modus shall be obligated to pay holders the Liquidation Value to redeem the Series C Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined below) or Trigger Event (as defined below). “Deemed Liquidation Event” generally means (a) a merger or consolidation where Alpha Modus or a subsidiary is a party to the merger and Alpha Modus issues shares of stock (except for domicile mergers and mergers not constituting a change of control); (b) Alpha Modus issues convertible or equity securities that senior to the Series C Preferred Stock in any respect; (c) a holder does not receive conversion shares upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock within 5 trading days due to the occurrence of an event that is solely within the control of Alpha Modus; (d) trading of the common stock is halted or suspended for 10 or more consecutive trading days due to the occurrence of an event that is solely within the control of Alpha Modus; or (e) a sale or other disposition of substantially all the assets of Alpha Modus that is not approved by the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock. | |
| VI. | Conversion. Shares of Series C Preferred Stock are not convertible until 18 months following Closing of the Business Combination so long as a Trigger Event has not occurred. Beginning 18 months following Closing of the Business Combination, or following the occurrence of a Trigger Event, shares of Series C Preferred Stock are convertible at election of the holder at the then-applicable Conversion Price. |

The tax effects of the temporary differences between reportable financial statement income and taxable income are recognized as deferred tax assets and liabilities.
The tax effect of significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2025 and 2024, are as follows:

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.

of the historical earnings history of the Company, the net deferred tax assets for 2025 and 2024 were fully offset by a 100% valuation
allowance. The valuation allowance for the remaining net deferred tax assets was $

NOTE 13 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is subject, from time to time, to claims by third parties under various legal disputes. The defense of such claims, or any adverse outcome relating to any such claims, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, financial condition and cash flows.
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management and its legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed.

ALPHA MODUS HOLDINGS, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2026
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Company Background
Alpha Modus, Corp. was incorporated in the State of Florida on July 11, 2014. On December 13, 2024, Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our,” or “Alpha Modus”), a Delaware corporation then known as “Insight Acquisition Corp.” and which was then a blank check company, acquired Alpha Modus, Corp. in the business combination described below, and changed its name to “Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc.” Following the business combination, the Company’s operations became those of Alpha Modus, Corp.
On August 11, 2025, the Company incorporated a new wholly owned subsidiary, Alpha Modus Financial Services, LLC in the State of North Carolina.
Nature of Operations
Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc., through its operating subsidiaries, is a technology and intellectual property company focused on the development, protection, licensing, and commercialization of data-driven systems designed to enhance consumer engagement and decision-making within physical retail environments. The Company was founded in 2014 and is headquartered in Cornelius, North Carolina.
Alpha Modus’ core strategy centers on the creation, licensing and enforcement of a proprietary patent portfolio covering systems and methods for real-time monitoring, analysis, and response to consumer behavior at or near the point of purchase. The Company’s technology is designed to convert previously unstructured consumer interaction data into actionable insights using advanced analytics and artificial intelligence. These insights may be used to support personalized marketing, dynamic digital engagement, smart planograms, inventory management, and enhanced in-store customer assistance.
Business Combination
On December 13, 2024, the parties to a Business Combination Agreement, including the Company and Alpha Modus, Corp., consummated a business combination (the “Business Combination”) pursuant to which Alpha Modus, Corp. was acquired by the Company, the pre-closing owners of Alpha Modus, Corp. were issued a majority of the capital stock of the Company, and the business of Alpha Modus, Corp. prior to closing became the business of the Company following closing. Immediately upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Alpha Modus, Corp. (“Alpha Modus”) became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company changed its name to “Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc.,” (“Holdings”). In accordance with ASC 805, in a business combination, one of the combining entities shall be identified as the accounting acquirer. Management evaluated ASC 805-10-55-11 through 55-15 to make this determination. Management assessed the various criteria to identify the accounting acquirer; form of consideration, relative voting rights, large minority interest, composition of the governing body, composition of management, terms of the exchange of equity interests and relative size. Management determined that Alpha Modus would be the accounting acquirer, based on the voting rights after the combination, large minority interest, composition of board and management and relative size. Management evaluated which entity constituted a business based on the assets acquired and liabilities assumed along with the inputs and processes of the entities. Management determined that Alpha Modus constituted a business and that the substance of the transaction was a recapitalization of Alpha Modus, often referred to as a reverse recapitalization. Accordingly, the Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Under this method of accounting, Holdings was treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. The net assets of Holdings were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination were those of Alpha Modus. All periods prior to the Business Combination have been retrospectively adjusted using the exchange ratio in the Business Combination for the equivalent number of shares outstanding immediately after the closing to effect the reverse recapitalization.
| F-35 |
In the Business Combination, the Company issued shares of common stock and shares of Series C Preferred Stock to Legacy Alpha Modus’ shareholders as merger consideration in the Business Combination, and the Company issued shares of common stock to various parties as required by the Business Combination Agreement. Immediately following the Business Combination there were shares of the Company’s common stock (all Class A common stock) issued and outstanding, and shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.
Risks and Uncertainties
On
August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for,
among other things, a new U.S. federal
Any share redemption or other share repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise will depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury.
NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and has a year-end of December 31st.
Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company’s system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that 1) recorded transactions are valid; 2) valid transactions are recorded; and 3) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods being presented. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in this filing and the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2026.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its two wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. The more significant accounting estimates included in these consolidated financial statements are the determination of the fair value of the warrant liabilities, earnout shares and sponsor earnout shares, preferred series C stock and excise tax payable. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under the FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” equals or approximates the carrying amounts represented in the consolidated balance sheets, except for the derivative liabilities (see Note 8).
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers consist of:
| ● | Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets; |
| F-37 |
| ● | Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and | |
| ● | Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. |
In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Derivative Liabilities
The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants and the forward purchase agreement, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC 480 and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.
The warrants issued in the Initial Public Offering (the “Public Warrants”) and the Private Placement Warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“ASC 820”), the Company recognizes the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the carrying value of the instruments to fair value at each reporting period for so long as they are outstanding. At the date of the merger, the initial fair value of the Public Warrants issued in connection with the Public Offering and the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants have been estimated using a Black-Scholes model. Subsequently, the fair value of the Public Warrants issued in connection with the Public Offering and the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants have been estimated using this same Black-Scholes model. Derivative warrant liabilities are classified as current liabilities (See note 6 for more details on warrants).
The company earnout shares and sponsor earnout shares (“earnout shares”) as defined in the business combination agreement are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“ASC 820”), the Company recognizes the earnout shares instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the carrying value of the instruments to fair value at each reporting period for so long as they are outstanding. At the date of the merger, the initial fair value of the earnout shares have been estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Subsequently, the fair value of the earnout shares have been estimated using this same Monte Carlo simulation model. Derivative earnout shares liabilities are classified as current liabilities (See note 7 for more details on earnout shares).
Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the year as defined by FASB, ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. The Company has and dilutive shares of common stock derived from four convertible notes and the series C preferred stock as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
The calculation of diluted net loss does not consider the effect of the warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering and the private placement warrants to purchase an aggregate of shares of Class A common stock and the earnout shares and sponsor earnout shares as defined in the business combination agreement an aggregate of shares of Class A common stock in the calculation of diluted (loss) income per share, because their exercise is contingent upon future events and their inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method.

Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and loss carryforwards and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income (loss) in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rules on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in operations in the year of change. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is “more likely-than-not” that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
Tax benefits of uncertain tax positions are recognized only if it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to sustain a position taken on an income tax return. The Company has no liability for uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Interest and penalties in any, related to unrecognized tax benefits would be recognized as interest expense. The Company does not have any accrued interest or penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any significant interest expense recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
Stock-Based Compensation
For stock-based transactions, compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period, based on the estimated fair value on the grant date of the award.
Notes Payable
The Company issued various notes payable to related parties. These notes payable included original issue discounts and debt issuance costs.
| F-39 |
Original issue discounts. The Company accounts for the original issue discounts in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 835-30, Interest and Imputation of Interest, which requires the Company to record the discount as a contra-liability and amortize it over the term of the underlying note using the interest method.
Debt issuance costs. The Company accounts for debt issuance costs in accordance with ASC No. 470-20, Debt, which requires the Company to recognize a contra-liability for costs incurred with the issuance of debt instruments. These contra-liabilities are amortized over the term of the underlying note payable using the interest method.
Related Parties
In accordance with ASC 850 “Related Party Disclosure”, a party is considered to be related to the Company if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal with if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
Series C Preferred Stock
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company amended and restated its charter to include the designation of a Series C Preferred Stock. The Amended and Restated Charter authorizes the issuance of shares of preferred stock, shares of which have been designated as Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred Stock”), and shares of which will be undesignated. Based on the characteristics and rights of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Company is reporting it as Mezzanine Equity (Temporary Equity) on its consolidated balance sheets. These shares were valued at the date of issuance using a Monte Carlo Simulation model. The Company determined that subsequent changes to the carrying value of the series C preferred shares will not be recognized until Redemption becomes probable of occurring. Alpha Modus shall be obligated to pay holders the Liquidation Value to redeem the Series C Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined below) or Trigger Event (as defined below). “Deemed Liquidation Event” generally means (a) a merger or consolidation where Alpha Modus or a subsidiary is a party to the merger and Alpha Modus issues shares of stock (except for domicile mergers and mergers not constituting a change of control); (b) Alpha Modus issues convertible or equity securities that senior to the Series C Preferred Stock in any respect; (c) a holder does not receive conversion shares upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock within 5 trading days due to the occurrence of an event that is solely within the control of Alpha Modus; (d) trading of the common stock is halted or suspended for 10 or more consecutive trading days due to the occurrence of an event that is solely within the control of Alpha Modus; or (e) a sale or other disposition of substantially all the assets of Alpha Modus that is not approved by the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock. See Note 9 – Mezzanine Equity and Note 10 – Stockholders’ Equity for further details.

Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional Public Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Public Warrants will trade. The Public Warrants will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination; provided that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permits holders to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis and such cashless exercise is exempt from registration under the Securities Act). The Company agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of the initial Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file with the SEC and have an effective registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed. If a registration statement covering the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the closing of the initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above, if the Company’s shares of Class A common stock are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elect, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event the Company does not so elect, it will use its best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, except as set forth below, the Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the Sponsor, the underwriters or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the Sponsor, the underwriters or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

The stockholders of Alpha Modus, Corp. may be issued up to additional shares of Company common stock (the “Earnout Shares”). The Earnout Shares will be earned and issued in one-third (1/3) increments (of approximately shares) if, for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30)-consecutive trading day period beginning at least 180 days after the Closing and on or prior to the 5-year anniversary of the Closing, the VWAP of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $ per share, $ per share and $ per share (as equitably adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and the like after the Closing), respectively, with all remaining Earnout Shares earned and issued upon certain changes of control of the Company at or prior to the 5-year anniversary of the Closing.
Additionally, at the Closing, the Company’s sponsor, Insight Acquisition Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) was required to deposit shares of Company common stock into escrow (the “Sponsor Earnout Shares”), and the Sponsor Earnout Shares will be released to the Sponsor according to the same milestones and timelines applicable to the Earnout Shares described above (earned and issued in one-third (1/3) increments of approximately shares).
“Closing Share Price” means, for any security as of any date(s), the dollar volume-weighted average price for such security on the principal securities exchange or securities market on which such security is then traded during the period beginning at 9:30:01 a.m., New York time, and ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg through its “HP” function (set to weighted average) or, if the foregoing does not apply, the dollar volume-weighted average price of such security in the over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin board for such security during the period beginning at 9:30:01 a.m., New York time and ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no dollar volume-weighted average price is reported for such security by Bloomberg for such hours, the average of the highest closing bid price and the lowest closing ask price of any of the market makers for such security as reported by OTC Markets Group Inc. If the Closing Share Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date(s) on any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Share Price of such security on such date(s) shall be the fair market value per share on such date(s) as reasonably determined by the Company.
If the condition for more than one Milestone is achieved, the Company Earnout Shares to be issued in connection with such Milestone shall be cumulative with any Company Earnout Shares earned prior to such time and the Escrowed Sponsor Shares to be released from escrow to Sponsor shall be cumulative with any Escrowed Sponsor Shares released prior to such time in connection with the achievement of any other Milestone; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company Earnout Shares in respect of each Milestone will be issued and earned only once and the aggregate Company Earnout Shares issued shall in no event exceed shares of Class A Common Stock.
If, at or following the 5-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the $ Share Price Milestone, $ Share Price Milestone and/or the $ Share Price Milestone have not occurred, none of the Earnout Shares that related to that particular Milestone shall be issued, and the Escrowed Sponsor Shares that have not been released from escrow to Sponsor shall automatically without further action be forfeited and deemed cancelled.
In the event that after the Closing and prior the 5-year anniversary of the Closing Date, there is a Change of Control, the $ Share Price Milestone, $ Share Price Milestone, and/or the $ Share Price Milestone, as applicable, shall be deemed to have occurred to the extent any such Milestone has not been achieved prior to the date of such Change of Control. For purposes hereof, a “Change of Control” means the occurrence in a single transaction or as a result of a series of related transactions, of one or more of the following events:
| a) | any person or any group of persons acting together which would constitute a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or any successor provisions thereto (a “Group”) (excluding a corporation or other entity owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of IAC) (x) is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than 50% of the combined voting power of then outstanding voting securities or (y) has or acquires control of the Board; | |
| b) | a merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar business combination transaction involving the Company, and, immediately after the consummation of such transaction or series of transactions, either (x) the Board immediately prior to the merger or consolidation does not constitute at least a majority of the board of directors of the company surviving the merger or, if the surviving company is a Subsidiary, the ultimate parent thereof, or (y) the voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation do not continue to represent or are not converted into more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the person resulting from such transaction or series of transactions or, if the surviving company is a Subsidiary, the ultimate parent thereof; or | |
| c) | the sale, lease or other disposition, directly or indirectly, by the Company of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, other than such sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to an entity at least a majority of the combined voting power of the voting securities of which are owned, directly or indirectly, by stockholders of the Company. |
| F-45 |
If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time, after the date hereof effect a subdivision, stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, combination, recapitalization or similar transaction affecting the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, the number of Earnout Shares issuable hereunder (and the number of Escrowed Sponsor Shares to be released), and the stock price targets set forth above shall be equitably adjusted for such subdivision, stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, combination, recapitalization or similar transaction. Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective (which shall be the “ex” date, if any, with respect to any such event).

NOTE 10 – MEZZANINE EQUITY
Series C Preferred Stock
On December 13, 2024, as part of the business combination, the Company issued shares of series C preferred stock to Legacy Alpha Modus shareholders in exchange for the same number of Legacy Alpha Modus’ common stock. Management reviewed ASC 480, ASC 805, ASC 815, ASC 820 and ASC 825 to determine the proper treatment of the series C preferred shares. Management concluded that the series C preferred shares qualify as temporary equity under ASC 815; therefore, the Company will recognize the series C preferred shares within mezzanine equity in its balance sheet. In accordance with ASC 480, the series C preferred shares will be initially recorded and measured at fair value; however, when estimating the fair value of the series C preferred shares, the Company has followed the guidance in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement”. Because Redemption is contingent upon the occurrence of certain events that have not been met, subsequent changes to the carrying value of the series C preferred shares will not be recognized until Redemption becomes probable of occurring.
In the consolidated financial statements, the series C preferred shares are being presented as being issued in 2023 when a Legacy Alpha Modus shareholder converted Legacy Alpha Modus series B preferred shares in preparation for the pending business combination. The consolidated financial statements reflect the shares of series B preferred stock converting into shares of series C preferred stock and shares of class A common stock.
On June 30, 2025, the Company issued shares of common stock for the conversion of shares of preferred series C stock. These shares carrying value was $, which was moved from mezzanine equity to shareholders’ equity. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were shares of series C preferred stock issued and outstanding.
NOTE 11 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Preferred Stock
The Amended and Restated Charter authorizes the issuance of shares of preferred stock, shares of which have been designated as Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred Stock”), and shares of which will be undesignated (see Note 9 – Mezzanine Equity).
The Series C Preferred Stock has the following rights:
| I. | Ranking. The Series C Preferred Stock will rank senior to the IAC common stock and other classes of IAC preferred stock with respect to rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution. | |
| II. | Voting. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to the vote of IAC’s shareholders; |
| III. | Dividends.
The Series C Preferred Stock shall be treated pari passu with the IAC common stock except that the dividends per share payable on
the Series C Preferred Stock shall equal the dividend per share declared on each share of IAC common stock multiplied by $ (the
“Face Value”) and divided by the applicable Conversion Price (as defined below). “Conversion Price” means
a price per share equal to the lesser of either the Face Value, or |
| F-48 |
| IV. | Liquidation. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of IAC, holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall be paid the Face Value per share, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends (the “Liquidation Value”). | |
| V. | Redemption. IAC shall be obligated to pay holders the Liquidation Value to redeem the Series C Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined below) or Trigger Event (as defined below). “Deemed Liquidation Event” generally means (a) a merger or consolidation where IAC or a subsidiary is a party to the merger and IAC issues shares of stock (except for domicile mergers and mergers not constituting a change of control); (b) IAC issues convertible or equity securities that senior to the Series C Preferred Stock in any respect; (c) a holder does not receive conversion shares upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock within 5 trading days due to the occurrence of an event that is solely within the control of IAC; (d) trading of the common stock is halted or suspended for 10 or more consecutive trading days due to the occurrence of an event that is solely within the control of IAC; or (e) a sale or other disposition of substantially all the assets of IAC that is not approved by the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock. | |
| VI. | Conversion. Shares of Series C Preferred Stock are not convertible until 18 months following Closing of the Business Combination so long as a Trigger Event has not occurred. Beginning 18 months following Closing of the Business Combination, or following the occurrence of a Trigger Event, shares of Series C Preferred Stock are convertible at election of the holder at the then-applicable Conversion Price. |

NOTE 13 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is subject, from time to time, to claims by third parties under various legal disputes. The defense of such claims, or any adverse outcome relating to any such claims, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, financial condition and cash flows.
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management and its legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed.

entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with the Streeterville Capital, LLC (the “Investor”),
pursuant to which the Company would sell and the Investor would purchase (i) one or more Secured Pre-Paid Purchases (each a “Pre-Paid
Purchase,” and collectively the “Pre-Paid Purchases”) in the aggregate purchase amount of up to $
The SPA includes customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company and customary closing conditions. The SPA prohibits the Company, while any Pre-Paid Purchase is outstanding, from issuing any (i) debt securities other than trade payables in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) any variable rate equity securities. The SPA also prohibits the Company from making any payments to William Alessi, the Company’s CEO, or any of his affiliates, with respect to any debt obligations owed by the Company to any of those affiliated debtholders. The SPA prohibits the issuance to the Investor under any Pre-Paid Purchase of a number of Common Shares in excess of the amount that would be permitted under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) without shareholder approval (the “Exchange Cap”), and requires the Company to obtain shareholder approval to issue to the Investor an amount of Common Shares in excess of the Exchange Cap (the “Shareholder Approval”) prior to the initial closing. The Shareholder Approval was received by the Company on June 30, 2026. The SPA also requires the Company to, within 30 days of the initial closing, file (i) a Schedule 14C information statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding the Shareholder Approval, and (ii) a registration statement with the SEC registering the Pre-Delivery Shares and all other Common Shares that may be purchased by the Investor pursuant to any Pre-Paid Purchase.
Each Pre-Paid Purchase is secured by a security agreement (the “Security Agreement”) by and between the Investor and the Company and its subsidiaries, granting the Investor first priority security interests in all assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, including Alpha Modus, Corp.’s intellectual property pursuant to a separate intellectual property security agreement (the “IP Security Agreement”). Additionally, each of the Company’s subsidiaries are guarantors of the Company’s obligations under each Pre-Paid Purchase pursuant to a guaranty (the “Guaranty”). William Alessi, his entity, Janbella Group, LLC, the trusts deemed to be beneficially owned by Mr. Alessi, and Chris Chumas (the Company’s CSO) (each a “Capital Party” and collectively the “Capital Parties”), are required to execute a subordination and voting agreement (the “Subordination Agreement”) pursuant to which (i) all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ indebtedness and obligations to each Capital Party will be subordinated to Investor, (ii) all security interests of any Capital Party will be subordinate to Investor’s security interests, (iii) the Company and its subsidiaries will not make any payments to any Capital Party (except for non-discretionary compensation owed to them pursuant to employment agreements with the Company), (iv) none of the Capital Parties will accelerate any subordinated debt or equity, (v) and no Capital Party will convert, exchange, or transfer their shares of Company stock until such time as the Investor has been fully paid and all financing agreements between the Investor and the Company are terminated. The Subordination Agreement also requires Chris Chumas to convert the shares of Series C Preferred Stock of the Company beneficially owned by him prior to June 29, 2026, into Common Shares (the “Chumas Common Shares”) within 30 days of the Purchase Price Date, and the SPA requires Chris Chumas to complete that conversion of preferred shares into the Chumas Common Shares prior to the initial closing.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to award, or a corporation’s board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities, including reimbursement for expenses incurred, arising under the Securities Act.
The Amended and Restated Charter provides for indemnification of our directors, officers, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, and the Bylaws provide for indemnification of our directors, officers, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.
In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors, officers, and some employees containing provisions which are in some respects broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law. The indemnification agreements will require us, among other things, to indemnify our directors against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors and to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.
Any underwriting agreement or distribution agreement that we enter into with any underwriters or agents involved in the offering or sale of any securities registered hereby may require such underwriters or dealers to indemnify us, some or all of our directors and officers and its controlling persons, if any, for specified liabilities, which may include liabilities under the Securities Act.

Item 17. Undertakings.
| (a) | The undersigned registrant, hereby undertakes: |
| (1) | To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: |
| i. | To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); |
| ii. | To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and |
| iii. | To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement. |
| (2) | That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. | |
| (3) | To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. | |
| (4) | That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use. | |
| (5) | That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser: |
| i. | Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; | |
| ii. | Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant; | |
| iii. | The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and | |
| iv. | Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser. |
| (b) | Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. |

Ladies and Gentlemen:
We refer to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 under the Securities Act of 1933, filed on July 17, 2026, filed by Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as filed and as it may be subsequently amended, the “Registration Statement”). The Registration Statement relates to the registration of up to 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) that have been or may be issued by the Company to the Selling Securityholder listed in the Registration Statement, consisting of (i) up to 3,550,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Pre-Paid Purchase Shares”) issuable to Streeterville Capital, LLC (“Streeterville”) under one or more secured pre-paid purchases (each a “Pre-Paid Purchase”) that may be issued to Streeterville, and (ii) 1,250,000 shares of Common Stock that constitute pre-delivery shares (the “Pre-Delivery Shares”) issued to Streeterville.
Assumptions
In rendering the opinion expressed below, we have assumed, with your permission and without independent verification or investigation:
1. That all signatures on documents we have examined in connection herewith are genuine and that all items submitted to us as original are authentic and all items submitted to us as copies conform with originals;
2. Except for the documents stated herein, there are no documents or agreements between the Company and/or any third parties which would expand or otherwise modify the respective rights and obligations of the parties as set forth in the documents referred to herein or which would have an effect on the opinion;
3. That as to all factual matters, each of the representations and warranties contained in the documents referred to herein is true, accurate and complete in all material respects, and the opinion expressed herein is given in reliance thereon.
We have examined the following documents in connection with this matter:
| 1. | The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and restated; |
| 2. | The Company’s Bylaws, as amended; |
| 3. | The Registration Statement; | |
| 4. | The Securities Purchase Agreement dated June 29, 2026, between the Company and Streeterville; and |
| 5. | Unanimous Consents of the Company’s Board of Directors. |
We have also examined various other documents, books, records, instruments and certificates of public officials, directors, executive officers and agents of the Company, and have made such investigations as we have deemed reasonable, necessary or prudent under the circumstances. Also, in rendering this opinion, we have reviewed various statutes and judicial precedent as we have deemed relevant or necessary.
Conclusions
Based upon our examination mentioned above, and relying on the statements of fact contained in the documents that we have examined, we are of the following opinions:
| 1. | Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc. is a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware. | |
| 2. | The Pre-Paid Purchase Shares issuable under each Pre-Paid Purchase have been duly authorized for issuance and, when issued under each Pre-Paid Purchase in accordance with the terms of the Pre-Paid Purchase in the manner described in the Registration Statement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. | |
| 3. | The Pre-Delivery Shares are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. |
The opinions set forth above are subject to the following exceptions, limitations and qualifications: (i) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors; (ii) the effect of general principles of equity, whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought; and (iii) the unenforceability under certain circumstances under law or court decisions of provisions providing for the indemnification of or contribution to a party with respect to a liability where such indemnification or contribution is contrary to public policy. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update our opinions herein, regardless of whether changes in the facts or laws upon which this opinion are based come to our attention after the date hereof.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement and the reference to our firm in the Prospectus in the Registration Statement under the caption “Legal Matters.” In providing this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder, including Item 509 of Regulation S-K.
