Our expectations, beliefs, and projections are expressed in good faith, and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that our expectations, beliefs and projections will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are generally identified by the words “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “continue,” “ongoing,” “forecast,” as well as variations of such words or similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements include statements concerning:
There are a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements, including those set forth in “Item 1. Business” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of Amendment No. 2 to our Registration Statement on Form 10 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 10, 2024 (the "Form 10"). All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by such cautionary statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

Exodus Movement, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Nature of Business
Exodus Movement, Inc. (“Exodus” or “the Company” or “we”) was incorporated in Delaware in July 2016. The Company operates in the FinTech subsector of the greater blockchain and digital asset industry. The Company has developed an un-hosted self-custodial digital asset wallet on the Exodus Platform and contracts with third parties to provide various services to users that utilize the Company’s wallet through the platform.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and in management’s opinion, reflect all the adjustments, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments, that are necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented. The unaudited condensed consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other period.
These condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Form 10.
There were no changes to the significant accounting policies or recent accounting pronouncements that were disclosed in Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10, other than the adoption of ASU 2023-08 Intangibles, Goodwill and Other - Crypto Assets ("ASU 2023-08"), as discussed below.
Correction of Previously Issued Financial Statements
Subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company identified an error in the calculation of earnings per share due to the undistributed earnings not being appropriately allocated to each class of common shares and an error in the disclosure of operating activities settled in digital assets and USDC in Note 5.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following fair value hierarchy is used in selecting inputs, with the highest priority given to Level 1, as these are the most transparent or reliable:
Prices may fall within Level 1, 2 or 3 depending upon the methodology and inputs used to estimate fair value for each specific security. In general, securities are priced using third-party pricing services. Securities not priced by pricing services are submitted to independent brokers for valuation and, if those are not available, internally developed pricing models are used to value assets using a methodology and inputs that market participants presumably would use to value the assets. Prices obtained from third-party pricing services or brokers are not adjusted. Subsequent to the adoption of ASU 2023-08, the fair value of each digital asset is based on quoted (unadjusted) prices in the principal market for each digital asset. Such prices are based on Level 1 inputs in accordance with ASC 820.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Upon transition, the segment expense categories and amounts disclosed in the prior periods should be based on the significant segment expense categories identified and disclosed in the period of adoption. This guidance will not impact our consolidated financial statements.
Improvements to Crypto Assets Disclosures
On December 13, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-08 which provides an update to existing crypto asset guidance and requires an entity to measure certain crypto assets at fair value. In addition, this guidance requires additional disclosures related to crypto assets once it is adopted. As of January 1, 2024, the Company has adopted ASU 2023-08.

The Company has
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”), which modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose (1) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (2) the income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit (separated between domestic and foreign) and (3) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations (separated by federal, state and foreign). ASU 2023-09 also requires entities to disclose their income tax payments to international, federal, state and local jurisdictions, among other changes. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. This guidance only impacts footnote disclosures and will not impact our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2024, our Class A Common Stock was listed for quotation on the OTCQX under the symbol “EXOD”. OTC Markets approval was received in April 2024.
In January 2024, our Class A Common Stock was listed for quotation on the OTCQB under the symbol “EXOD”. OTC Markets approval was received in January 2024 and in January the initial qualifying deposit was made and initial trades have occurred.
In December 2023, our Class A Common Stock ceased trading on tZERO Markets, LLC ("tZERO"), an alternative trading system that had the ability to support trades of our Class A Common Stock and transfers of our Common Stock Tokens. Our Class A Common Stock previously traded on tZERO under the symbol “EXOD”.
In October 2023, our Class A Common Stock ceased trading on Securitize Markets, an alternative trading system that had the ability to support trades of our Class A Common Stock and transfers of our Common Stock Tokens. Our Class A Common Stock previously traded on Securitize Markets under the symbol “EXOD”.
There is currently no public market for our Common Stock Tokens and we do not believe one will develop in the foreseeable future. Common Stock Tokens cannot be traded on the OTC market or any national securities exchange.
Stock-Based Compensation
Options and Equity Grants Issued
The 2019 Equity Incentive Plan adopted in September 2019 (the “2019 Plan”) permitted the Company to grant non-statutory stock options, incentive stock options, and other equity awards to Exodus team members, directors, and consultants.
In August 2021, the Company also adopted the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”). The 2021 Plan permits the Company to grant non-statutory stock options, incentive stock options and other equity awards, such as restricted stock awards, to Exodus team members, directors, and consultants.
Upon the approval of the 2021 Plan, the Company can no longer grant non-statutory stock options, incentive stock options, or other equity awards to Exodus employees, directors, or consultants under the 2019 Plan.
Terms of our share-based compensation are governed by the plan in which awards were issued.

9. Income Taxes
At the end of each interim period, the Company records income taxes by applying an estimated annualized effective tax rate to the current period income or loss before income taxes. The Company's annualized effective tax rate is based on pre-tax earnings, enacted U.S. statutory tax rates, non-deductible expenses, certain tax rate differences between U.S. and foreign jurisdictions, and specific events that are discretely recognized entirely within the interim period in which they occur. Exodus’ foreign subsidiaries Proper Trust AG files an income tax return in Switzerland and Osmium Europe B.V. will file in the Netherlands.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $
Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily impacted by the change in permanent differences, including the tax benefit from the foreign derived intangible income, and discrete items, including stock based compensation and tax effect of realized and unrealized digital asset gains and losses during the period. For purposes of recording the discrete tax expense related to digital assets, for the six months ending June 30, 2024, realized gains or losses are recorded to the Company’s current taxes payable and unrealized gains and losses are recorded to the deferred tax liability based on current period activity.
Changes in tax laws
We operate in various jurisdictions and are subject to changes in applicable tax laws, treaties or regulations in those jurisdictions. A material change in the tax laws, treaties or regulations, or their interpretation, of any jurisdiction with which we do business, or in which we have significant operations, could adversely affect us. For example, the new Pillar 2 approach, which came into effect in 2023 in certain jurisdictions, will establish a global minimum tax rate of 15%, such that multinational enterprises with an effective tax rate in a jurisdiction below this minimum rate will need to pay additional tax. While many aspects of the application of Pillar 2 remain to be clarified, including how the jurisdictions in which we operate, and those in which we and our subsidiaries are based, choose to implement the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s approach in their tax treaties and domestic tax laws, we do not expect Pillar 2 to apply in 2024.

10. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to a number of claims and proceedings that generally arise in the ordinary course of business, the outcome of which cannot be predicted with certainty. The Company does not believe that the liabilities from such ordinary course claims and proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. If the Company believes the losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated, reserves will be established. For matters where a reserve has not been established, the ultimate outcome or resolution cannot be predicted at this time or the amount of ultimate loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated. Litigation is subject to many uncertainties and there can be no assurance as to the outcome of the individual litigated matters. It is possible that certain of the actions, claims, inquiries or proceedings could be decided unfavorably to the Company or any of its subsidiaries involved. Accordingly, it is possible that an adverse outcome from such a proceeding could exceed the amount accrued in an amount that could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis of Exodus’ financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this quarterly report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current plans, expectations and beliefs that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors,” “Forward Looking Statements,” and in other parts of this quarterly report and the Form 10.
Overview of Our Business
We are engaged in the business of creating and distributing self-custodial wallets for digital assets. Because a majority of our revenue is derived from services provided by API Providers to persons located outside the United States pursuant a transaction-based structure, our profitability is dependent on a number of factors including the pricing of digital assets, the volume of transactions and the quality of our third-party relationships.
Our revenues are primarily derived from digital asset related transactions and consist of fees from third party API agreements. Our expenses primarily consist of:
Based on the services offered and transactions conducted by API Providers, the following table shows the digital assets that are most material to our business by revenue.

Known Trends and Uncertainties
Cloud based infrastructure expense - Cloud infrastructure expenses increased by $1.1 million and $1.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to the corresponding prior year period. We anticipate increased cloud infrastructure expenses as the platform continues to grow due to increased database capacity and new users.
Investment in human capital - Costs related to investment in human capital (including recruiting costs, salary, incentive and compensation costs) increased $3.4 million and $4.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to the corresponding prior year period. As the Exodus platform continues to expand, we anticipate the need to add more team members to accommodate the growth in our business, which is expected to materially increase both cost of revenues and general and administrative expenses as a result of the impact on the human capital costs described above. Human capital costs are also expected to increase due to the need to add additional team members to address compliance with the evolving regulatory environment.
Marketing expenses – Marketing-related costs increased $0.4 million and $0.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase in both periods was primarily due to increased spending on website advertisements targeted at the crypto space and on social platforms. To date, we have primarily focused on an organic
15
growth-based marketing strategy. We continue to evaluate our marketing strategy and in the future may decide to refocus the current organic growth strategy in growing our user base to a more competitive approach, which would be expected to further increase marketing-related expenses.
Monthly Active Users
To measure user activity, we rely on the number of monthly active users (“MAUs”) of our Exodus Platform. We define an MAU as any user with transaction history in any month. A user has “transaction history” if, in the last 30 calendar days, the user performed any activity within the application such as opening their application to check digital asset prices, reading news, or accessing the services of our API Providers. A user will not have “transaction history” if it merely opens our wallet application without further action. MAUs provide a measurement of attraction and retention levels and user engagement by allowing management to compare “churn users,” defined as users who have been inactive on the Exodus Platform for three consecutive months, against “renewing users,” defined as users who have been active on the Exodus Platform for two consecutive months, and “new users,” defined as users new to the platform that month. Within each cohort of churn users, renewing users, and new users, we then identify the funded users to assess users’ ability to engage with the Exodus Platform. The term “funded users” refers to users whose wallet currently holds digital assets of value as determined by blockchain and pricing provider data. MAUs consist of both funded wallets and unfunded wallets. Because Exodus does not have accounts, users do not close an account or otherwise leave the platform. Therefore, churn users may become new users in the next month or at any point in the future as they re-engage with the platform. A positive MAUs percentage indicates that new and renewing users exceed churned users in a given month and that interest in the Exodus Platform is increasing. Management views increasing interest in the Exodus Platform over time as a key indicator of increasing revenue, especially for MAUs outside of the United States as the likelihood of revenue generating transactions increases as user interest increases.
Monthly active users ("MAUs") were 1.5 million and 1.2 million as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, reflecting an increase of 0.3 million, or 25.4%. We believe the increase in MAUs was primarily attributable to a positive movement in consumer-related sentiment related to the cryptocurrency markets, leading to higher prices and increased trading activity. Our strategic focus remains on expanding our active user base, improving app features, and expanding our business-to-business partnerships. We believe that over the long term, interest in digital assets and digital asset markets will increase. However, during any given period, we cannot be certain that our MAU growth efforts will be effective or that interest in digital assets will increase.

Total revenue increased $9.9 million, or 80%, for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by exchange aggregation revenue, which increased $8.3 million, or 72%, for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. See Note 3 Revenue Recognition for further details. Additionally, non-exchange aggregation revenue increased $1.6 million, or 203%, for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The revenue growth from all sources for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to user growth (as discussed under “Monthly Active Users” above) and growth related to our business to business partner efforts. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, we saw increases in exchange aggregation and fiat onboarding revenues related to our business to business partnerships. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, four API Providers accounted for more than 10% each of total revenue and collectively generated exchange aggregation revenue of $15.5 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, five API providers accounted for more than 10% each of total revenue and collectively generated exchange aggregation revenue of $10.7 million. See Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Concentration of Revenue.
Total revenue increased $25.6 million, or 99%, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by exchange aggregation revenue, which increased $22.4 million, or 93%, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. Additionally, non-exchange aggregation revenue increased $3.2 million, or 212%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The revenue growth from all sources for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to user growth (as discussed under “Monthly Active Users” above) and growth related to our business to business partner efforts. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we saw increases in exchange aggregation and fiat onboarding revenues related to our business to business partnerships. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, four API Providers accounted for more than 10% each of total revenue and collectively generated exchange aggregation revenue of $36.7 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, five API providers accounted for more than 10% each of total revenue and collectively generated exchange aggregation revenue of $22.0 million. See Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Concentration of Revenue.
Cost of revenues increased $3.6 million, or 51%, for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $1.2 million increase in employee compensation and benefit expense as a result of

increased headcount, a $1.1 million increase in cloud infrastructure service costs due to increased database capacity needs as a result of the continued expansion of our platform and addition of new users, a $0.6 million increase in partner fee expense, a $0.3 million increase in subscription expenses and a $0.5 million increase in consulting expenses, partially offset by a $0.2 million increase in capitalized labor.
Cost of revenues increased $7.4 million, or 53%, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $2.6 million increase in employee compensation and benefit expense as a result of increased headcount, a $1.9 million increase in cloud infrastructure service costs due to increased database capacity needs as a result of the continued expansion of our platform and addition of new users, a $1.0 million increase in partner fee expense, a $0.3 million increase in subscription expenses, a $0.5 million increase in consulting expenses, a $0.4 million increase in software amortization expense and a $0.5 million decrease in capitalized labor.
General and administrative expenses increased $5.0 million, or 126%, for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $2.2 million increase in employee compensation and benefit expenses, a $1.4 million increase in legal and consulting expenses, a $0.8 million increase in meeting and travel expenses, a $0.4 million increase in marketing expenses and a $0.2 million increase in foreign currency expense.
General and administrative expenses increased $7.1 million, or 71%, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was primarily due to a $1.9 million increase in employee compensation and benefit expenses, a $2.6 million increase in legal and consulting expenses, a $0.8 million increase in meeting and travel expenses, a $0.5 million increase in marketing expenses and a $1.2 million increase in foreign currency expense.
The Company experienced an unfavorable fluctuation in the market price of digital assets held during the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily driven by market volatility. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized net realized gains from exchange of digital assets of $1.8 million and net unrealized losses from remeasurement of digital assets of $19.0 million. Realized gains in 2023 were calculated using impaired balances compared to cost basis in 2024. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded net gain on digital assets of $0.2 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized net realized gains from exchange of digital assets of $5.8 million and net unrealized gains from remeasurement of digital assets of $33.7 million.

At this time, we currently believe that our cash on hand, as well as the sources of liquidity described above, will be sufficient to fund our operations through the next twelve months.
Non-GAAP Financial Measure
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA
In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is useful in evaluating our operating performance. We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, Adjusted EBITDA is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison.
Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income, adjusted to exclude provision for or benefit from income taxes, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, stock-based compensation expense, gains and losses on digital assets, unrealized gain or loss on investments, fair value gain or loss on derivatives, non-recurring legal reserves and related costs, and other loss.
The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors. Management’s determination of the components of Adjusted EBITDA are evaluated periodically and based, in part, on a review of non-GAAP financial measures used by industry analysts.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market price risk of digital assets
A large portion of our operating revenue generated from API providers is received in Bitcoin. A decline in the market price of digital assets had (and could in the future, have) an adverse effect on the Company's operations, the value of our digital assets, and our future operations and cash flows.
The market price of Bitcoin is impacted by a variety of factors and is determined primarily using data from various exchanges, over-the-counter markets and derivative platforms. The digital asset industry has previously been negatively impacted by market price volatility. Pricing may be the result of, and may continue to result in, speculation regarding future appreciation in the value of Bitcoin. There can be no assurance that we will be able to exchange our digital assets for U.S. dollars on a timely basis, if at all, or for a fair price. If the value of our digital assets declines, or if we experience difficulties converting our digital assets to U.S. dollars, we may not have sufficient liquidity to satisfy our liabilities, expenses and costs as they become due, which may negatively affect our business operations and financial condition.
Interest rate risk
Our exposure to changes in interest rates primarily relates to interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents and U.S. Treasury Bills with maturities of approximately six months or less.
Our investment policy and strategy related to our cash, cash equivalents, and treasury bills is to preserve capital and meet liquidity requirements without increasing risk. Our cash and cash equivalents consist of money market funds denominated in U.S. dollars, cash deposits, and treasury bills acquired with less than three months to maturity. Treasury bills outside of cash and cash equivalents include amounts acquired with three months to twelve months to maturity. Therefore the fair value of our cash, cash equivalents, and treasury bills would not be significantly affected by either an increase or a decrease in interest rates. A hypothetical 100 basis points increase or decrease in average interest rates applied to our daily balances held as of June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, would have resulted in a $0.7 million and $0.6 million increase or decrease, respectively, in interest earned on cash, cash equivalents, and treasury bills. The Federal Reserve has increased the Federal Funds Rate over 500 basis points since March 31, 2021 to control current levels of inflation and as of June 30, 2024, the Federal Funds Rate was 5.33%. A decrease in interest rates is possible. A hypothetical 500 basis points increase or decrease in average interest rates applied to our daily balances held as of June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, which hypothetical basis point increase corresponds closely to the increase of the Federal Funds Rate since early 2021, would have resulted in a $3.5 million and $2.7 million increase or decrease, respectively, in interest earned on cash, cash equivalents, and treasury bills.
Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency transaction risk
Revenues, expenses, and financial results of our foreign subsidiaries are recorded in the functional currency of these subsidiaries. Our foreign currency exposure is primarily related to transactions denominated in Swiss Francs attributable to cash and cash equivalents, and other intercompany transactions where the transaction currency is different from a subsidiary’s functional currency. Changes in foreign exchange rates, and in particular a weakening of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar may negatively affect our results of operations as expressed in U.S. dollars. We have experienced and will continue to experience fluctuations in our results of operations as a result of gains or losses on the settlement and the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are not the functional currency.
We recognized net foreign currency losses of $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to net foreign currency gains of $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, in general and administrative expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income. If an adverse 10% foreign currency exchange rate change was applied to total monetary assets, liabilities, and commitments denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies at the balance sheet date, it would not have a material impact on our financial results.
We have not, but may in the future enter into derivatives or other financial instruments in an attempt to hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. It is difficult to predict the impact hedging activities would have on our results of operations. Additionally, the volatility of exchange rates depends on many factors that we cannot forecast with reliable accuracy. Our international operations increase our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations and, as a result, such fluctuations could have a material impact on our future results of operations and cash flows.
Foreign currency translation risk
Fluctuations in functional currencies from our net investment in international subsidiaries expose us to foreign currency translation risk, where changes in foreign currency exchange rates may adversely affect our results of operations upon translation into U.S. dollars. We recognized gains on translation adjustments, net of tax, of $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to losses on translation adjustments, net of tax, of $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, a 10% increase or decrease on foreign currency exchange rates for translation purposes would not have a material impact on our financial results.
22
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, with the participation of, and under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of June 30, 2024. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2024 the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, as described below.
Material Weaknesses
During 2022, we identified errors in our previously reported financial information as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021. As a result of the errors that were identified, we identified a material weakness in the Company’s control environment whereby the Company did not design and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting with respect to the expertise and quantity of its resources. Specifically, we did not effectively execute a strategy to hire, train, and retain a sufficient quantity of personnel with an appropriate level of training, expertise, and experience in certain areas important to financial reporting. In addition, we also identified a material weakness whereby we did not design and implement effective control activities based on the criteria established in the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations framework. Specifically, the control activities did not adequately (i) address relevant risks, (ii) provide evidence of performance, (iii) provide appropriate segregation of duties, or (iv) operate at a level of precision to identify all potentially material errors.
Remediation Plan Update
We have initiated and intend to continue to implement measures designed to improve our internal control over financial reporting to remediate the material weaknesses, including the following:
We will continue to revise our risk assessment and scoping to rectify any deficiencies noted, enhance the design of controls and implement new controls if needed, expand education and training where necessary, update documentation, and add any necessary reviews by our management. We will continue to remediate the design of certain controls and test the design of the remediated controls.
We believe that the steps detailed above, once fully implemented and successfully tested, will remediate the identified material weaknesses. In addition, the Company has created an internal audit function that has completed a risk assessment and scoping analysis with respect to internal control over financial reporting for the year ending December 31, 2024. Management plans to continue to evaluate the risk assessment and scoping analysis each quarter to help monitor the Company’s internal control environment as well as to help effectively identify and address any deficiencies. The Company has also performed a fraud risk assessment to help identify and evaluate fraud risks that may impact business processes.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except as described above with respect to our remediation plan, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
23
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The information required with respect to this item can be found in Note 10, “Legal Proceedings” to our consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the risk factors we previously disclosed in the Form 10.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
None.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
Item 5. Other Information
In April 2024, following months of constructive dialogue with the United Kingdom’s ("UK") Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), the FCA removed the Company from its Warning List. This action by the FCA was the culmination of months of productive discussion pursuant to which the Company worked diligently and transparently with the FCA to respond to questions and address concerns. As disclosed, in 2023 the FCA enacted new rules relating to how digital assets can be marketed to consumers in the UK and although at the time the Company believed it was in compliance with those new rules, in November 2023 it was previously placed on the FCA’s Warning List.
During the three months ended June 30, 2024, no director or Section 16 officer
