NOTE 1. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Ukraine-Russia Conflict
The geopolitical situation in Eastern Europe intensified on February 24, 2022, with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The war between the two countries continues to evolve as military activity continues. The United States and certain European countries have imposed additional sanctions on Russia and specific individuals. By the end of August 2022, the Company closed its technical support and development office in Russia. We relocated our personnel to Turkey, currently considered a neutral zone. No individual associated with the Company is banned or under Special Designated Nationals and Blocked Person list. If the military activities worsen and expand in Europe, we may relocate our office from Turkey to other neutral zones in Asia. If we cannot relocate our technical and development operations to a safer zone, it may impact our software development capabilities and negatively impact the Company’s business plans.
As of the date of this report, there has been no disruption in our operations.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FDCTech, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary. We have eliminated all intercompany balances and transactions. The Company has prepared the consolidated financial statements consistent with the accounting policies adopted by the Company in its financial statements. The Company has measured and presented its consolidated financial statements in US Dollars, the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates (also known as its functional currency).
Financial Statement Preparation and Use of Estimates
The Company prepared consolidated financial statements according to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions. This could impact the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as the related disclosures, at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses for the periods presented. Estimates include revenue recognition, the allowance for doubtful accounts, website and internal-use software development costs, recoverability of intangible assets with finite lives, and other long-lived assets. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions due to risks and uncertainties, including uncertainty in the current economic environment due to the coronavirus (“COVID-19”).
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include
cash on hand, bank deposits, and other short-term, highly liquid investments with three months or less of original maturities. The
Company maintains its cash balances at multiple financial institutions, both domestic and foreign. For US financial institutions,
the balances do not exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limits as of March 31, 2025. However, as of December 31,
2024, the majority of the cash balance was held with non-FDIC financial institutions in Malta, the UK, and other countries. As of
March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company had $

Accounts Receivable
Accounts Receivable primarily represent the amount from four (4) technology customers. In some cases, customer receivables are due immediately upon demand; however, in most cases, the Company offers net 30 terms, where payment is due in full 30 days after the invoice date. The Company has based the allowance for doubtful accounts on its assessment of the collectability of customer accounts. The Company regularly reviews the allowance by considering historical experience, credit quality, the accounts receivable balances’ age, and economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay and expected default frequency rates. Trade receivables are written off at the point when they are considered uncollectible.
At March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Management

Revenue Recognition
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The majority of the Company’s revenues come from two contracts – IT support and maintenance (‘IT Agreement’) and software development (‘Second Amendment’) that fall within the scope of ASC 606.
The Company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services as per the contract with the customer. As a result, the Company accounts for revenue contracts with customers by applying the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which includes the following steps:
| ● | Identify the contract or contracts and subsequent amendments with the customer. | |
| ● | Identify all the performance obligations in the contract and subsequent amendments. | |
| ● | Determine the transaction price for completing performance obligations. | |
| ● | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract. | |
| ● | Recognize the revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation. |
| F-13 |
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
The Company adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method applied to all contracts not completed as of January 1, 2019. The Company presents results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019, under ASC 606, while prior period amounts are reported following legacy GAAP. In addition to the above guidelines, the Company also considers implementing guidance on warranties, customer options, licensing, and other topics. The Company considers revenue collectability, methods for measuring progress toward complete satisfaction of a performance obligation, warranties, customer options for additional goods or services, non-refundable upfront fees, licensing, customer acceptance, and other relevant categories.
The Company accounts for a contract when the Company and the customer (‘parties’) have approved of the contract and are committed to performing their respective obligations. Each party can identify its rights, obligations, and payment terms; the contract has commercial substance. The Company will collect all of the considerations. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of the promised service to a customer. The Company fixes the transaction price for goods and services at contract inception. The Company’s standard payment terms are net 30 days and, in some cases, due upon receipt of the invoice.
The Company considers the change in scope, price, or both as contract modifications. The parties describe contract modification as a change order, a variation, or an amendment. A contract modification exists when the parties approve a modification that either creates new or changes existing enforceable rights and obligations. The Company assumes a contract modification by oral agreement or implied by the customer’s customary business practice when agreed in writing. If the parties to the contract have not approved a contract modification, the Company continues to apply the existing contract’s guidance until the contract modification is approved. The Company recognizes contract modification in various forms –partial termination, an extension of the contract term with a corresponding price increase, adding new goods or services to the contract, with or without a corresponding price change, and reducing the contract price without a change in goods/services promised.
At contract inception, the Company assesses the solutions or services, or bundles of solutions and services, obligated in the contract with a customer to identify each performance obligation within the contract and then evaluate whether the performance obligations are capable of being distinct and distinct within the context of the agreement. Solutions and services that are not capable of being distinct and distinct within the contract context are combined and treated as a single performance obligation in determining the allocation and recognition of revenue. For multi-element transactions, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation on a relative stand-alone selling price basis. The Company determines the stand-alone selling price for each item at the transaction’s inception involving these multiple elements.
Since January 21, 2016 (‘Inception’), the Company has derived its revenues mainly from consulting services, technology solutions, and customized software development. The Company recognizes revenue when it has satisfied a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or delivering a service to a customer. We measure revenue based upon the consideration outlined in an arrangement or contract with a customer.
| F-14 |
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
The Company’s standard performance obligations include the following:
| Performance Obligation | Types of Deliverables | When Performance Obligation is Typically Satisfied | ||
| Consulting Services | Consulting related to Start-Your-Own-Brokerage (“SYOB”), Start-Your-Own-Prime Brokerage (“SYOPB”), Start-Your-Own-Crypto Exchange (“SYOC”), FX/OTC liquidity solutions and lead generations. | The Company recognizes the consulting revenues when the customer receives services over the contract length. If the customer pays the Company in advance for these services, the Company records such payment as deferred revenue until the Company completes the services. | ||
| Technology Services | Licensing of Condor Risk Management Back Office (“Condor Risk Management”), Condor FX Pro Trading Terminal, Condor Pricing Engine, Crypto Trading Platform (“Crypto Web Trader Platform”), and other cryptocurrency-related solutions. | The Company recognizes ratably over the contractual period that the services are delivered, beginning on the date such service is made available to the customer. Licensing agreements are typically one year in length with an option to cancel by giving notice; customers have the right to terminate their agreements if the Company materially breaches its obligations under the agreement. Licensing agreements do not provide customers the right to take possession of the software. The Company charges the customers a set-up fee for installing the platform, and implementation activities are insignificant and not subject to a separate fee. | ||
| Software Development | Design and build development software projects for customers, where the Company develops the project to meet the design criteria and performance requirements as specified in the contract. | The Company recognizes the software development revenues when the Customer obtains control of the deliverables as stated in the Statement-of-Work contract. |
The Company assumes that the goods or services promised in the existing contract will be transferred to the customer to determine the transaction price. The Company believes that the contract will not be canceled, renewed, or modified; therefore, the transaction price includes only those amounts to which the Company has rights under the present contract. For example, if the Company enters a contract with a customer with an original term of one year and expects the customer to renew it for a second year, the Company will determine the transaction price based on the initial one-year period. When choosing the transaction price, the company first identifies the fixed consideration, including non-refundable upfront payment amounts.
To allocate the transaction price, the Company gives the amount that best represents the consideration that the entity expects to receive for transferring each promised good or service to the customer. The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation identified in the contract on a relatively standalone selling price basis to meet the allocation objective. In determining the standalone selling price, the Company uses the best evidence of the stand-alone selling price that the Company charges to similar customers in similar circumstances. The Company sometimes uses the adjusted market assessment approach to determine the standalone selling price. It evaluates the market in which it sells the goods or services and estimates the price that customers in that market would pay for those goods or services when sold separately.
The Company recognizes revenue when or as it transfers the promised goods or services into the contract. The Company considers the “transfers” the promised goods or services when the customer obtains control of the goods or services. The Company believes a customer “obtains control” of an asset when it can directly use and substantially obtain all the remaining benefits from an asset. The Company recognizes deferred revenue related to services it will deliver within one year as a current liability. The Company presents deferred revenue related to services that the Company will provide more than one year into the future as a non-current liability.
According to the contract’s terms and conditions, the Company invoices the customer at the beginning of the month for the month’s services. The invoice amount is due upon receipt. The Company recognizes the revenue at the end of each month, equal to the invoice amount.

Wealth Management
AD Advisory Services Pty (ADS), the Company’s wealth management revenue, primarily consists of advisory revenue, commission revenue from insurance products, fees to prepare the statement of advice, rebalancing portfolio, and other financial planning activities. ADS is authorized and regulated by the Australian Securities & Investments Commission (ASIC) to conduct licensing activities in Australia.
ASC 606 establishes a five-step model for revenue recognition aimed at enhancing comparability and transparency across entities, industries, and capital markets. The Company only recognizes revenue that reflects the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in exchange for the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled.
For ADS, a contract is an agreement between ADS and a client that creates enforceable rights and obligations, encompassing advisory services, insurance product commissions, and other financial planning activities. Contracts may be written, oral, or implied by customary business practices and are identified when both parties approve the agreement; each party can identify rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred, establish payment terms, the contract has commercial substance, and collection of payment is probable.
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the Customer. For ADS, performance obligations may include:
| ● | Providing ongoing financial advisory services, | |
| ● | Preparing statements of advice, | |
| ● | Executing portfolio rebalancing, | |
| ● | Facilitating the purchase of insurance products, and | |
| ● | Offering other specialized financial and estate planning services. |
We evaluate these services to determine if they are distinct, considering whether the Customer can benefit from the service on its own or with other readily available resources, and if the promise to transfer the service is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract.
The transaction price is the amount of consideration ADS expects to receive in exchange for transferring the promised goods or services to the Customer. These services include fixed fees, commissions from insurance products, and variable consideration for performance-based fees. ADS estimates the amount of variable consideration to which it will be entitled in a manner that reflects the likelihood and magnitude of a revenue reversal.
If a contract includes more than one performance obligation, ADS allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on its standalone selling price. When standalone selling prices are not directly observable, ADS estimates them using methods that may include cost-plus margin, market assessment, or residual approach, considering the Customer’s perceived value of each service.
ADS recognizes revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e., when the control of the promised good or service is transferred to the Customer. For ongoing services, revenue is recognized over time, reflecting the continuous transfer of services. For services performed at a specific point in time, revenue is recognized upon completion of the service. The pattern of revenue recognition is determined based on when the Customer obtains control of the promised good or service, which for advisory services is typically throughout the contract, and for transaction-based services (like insurance commissions or fees for specific planning activities), is at the point in time when the transaction is executed, or the service is rendered. If we receive payments before services, we defer and recognize them as revenue when we are satisfied with our performance obligation. Advisory revenue includes fees charged to clients in advisory accounts for which we are the licensed investment advisor. We bill advisory fees weekly.

The Company operates its brokerage business in two segments: retail and institutional (“clients” or “customers”). Through its retail and institutional segment, the Company provides its customers (individuals) around the world with access to a diverse range of global financial markets, including spot forex, precious metals, spread bets, and contracts for difference (“CFDs”) on currencies, commodities, indices, individual equities, cryptocurrencies, bonds, and interest rate products, as well as OTC options. The FCA defines a retail customer as a client who is not a professional or an eligible counterparty. A professional client is an entity that must be authorized or regulated to operate in the financial markets. According to the MFSA, a retail client is a client who is not a professional client or an eligible counterparty. A professional client possesses the knowledge, experience, and expertise to assess risks and make informed investment decisions.
We recognize Brokerage (Trading) revenue through the principal model following the guidance outlined in ASC 606, Revenues from Contracts with Customers. The Company primarily generates revenue through market-making and trading execution services for its clients, known as Brokerage (Trading) Revenues. The Brokerage (Trading) revenue is the Company’s largest source of revenue. Brokerage (Trading) revenue comprises revenue from the retail OTC business and the advisory business. OTC trading includes forex trading (“forex”), precious metals trading, CFDs, and spread betting (in markets that do not prohibit such transactions), as well as other financial products.
We realize gains or losses when we liquidate customer transactions. We revalue unrealized gains or losses on trading positions at prevailing market rates at the date of the balance sheet. We include them in Receivables from brokers, Payables to customers, and Payables to brokers on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We record changes in net unrealized gains or losses in Brokerage (Trading) revenue on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss)/Income. We record Brokerage (Trading) revenue on a trade date basis.
We also generate business through an agency model by earning commissions and spreads for executing customer trades. We book these revenues on a trade-date basis. The Company acts as an agent concerning clearing trades but is the principal on fees paid to introducing brokers. The Company does not assume any market-making risk related to customer trades in this business.
Net interest revenue consists primarily of the revenue generated by the Company’s cash and customer cash held at banks, as well as funds on deposit as collateral with the Company’s liquidity providers, less interest paid to the Company’s customers.
We record interest revenue and interest expense when earned and incurred, respectively.

Legal Proceedings
The Company discloses a loss contingency if there is at least a reasonable possibility that a material loss has been incurred. The Company records its best estimate of loss related to pending legal proceedings when the loss is probable, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company can reasonably estimate a range of losses with no best estimate in the range; the Company records the minimum estimated liability. As additional information becomes available, the Company assesses the potential liability related to pending legal proceedings, revises its estimates, and updates its disclosures accordingly. The Company’s legal costs associated with defending itself are recorded as expenses when incurred.
On December 23, 2023, the Company received legal correspondence and supporting documents addressed to APSI Holdings Limited (formerly Alchemy Prime Holdings Limited) and FDCTech, Inc. The nature of the legal claims or disputes has not been fully specified in the received correspondence. The Company is assessing the situation and will respond appropriately.

Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability method. This method calculates deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the temporary differences between the consolidated financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates applicable each year.
The Company utilizes a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions (“tax contingencies”). The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount, exceeding 50%, that is likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers various factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and benefits, which necessitate periodic adjustments that may not accurately predict actual outcomes. The Company includes interest and penalties related to tax contingencies in the provision for income taxes in the consolidated statements of its operations. The Company’s management does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly in the next twelve (12) months.

The Company capitalizes major costs incurred during the application development stage for internal-use software.
Convertible Debentures
The cash conversion guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, is considered when evaluating the accounting for convertible debt instruments, including certain convertible preferred stock classified as a liability, to determine whether the conversion feature should be recognized as a separate component of equity. The cash conversion guidance applies to all convertible debt instruments that, upon conversion, may be settled entirely or partially in cash or other assets where the conversion option is not bifurcated and separately accounted for pursuant to ASC 815.
If the conversion features of conventional convertible debt provide a conversion rate below market value, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). The Company records BCF as a debt discount in accordance with ASC Topic 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. In such circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the Black-Scholes formula. The Company amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method.

Fair Value
The Company uses current market values to recognize certain assets and liabilities at a fair value. The fair value is the estimated price at which the Company can sell the asset or settle a liability in an orderly transaction to a third party under current market conditions. The Company uses the following methods and valuation techniques for deriving fair values:
Market Approach – The market approach uses the prices associated with actual market transactions for similar or identical assets and liabilities to derive a fair value.
Income Approach – The income approach utilizes estimated future cash flows or earnings, adjusted by a discount rate that reflects the time value of money and the risk of not achieving the cash flows, to derive a discounted present value.
Cost Approach – The cost approach uses the estimated cost to replace an asset, adjusted for the obsolescence of the existing asset.
The Company ranks the fair value hierarchy of information sources from Level 1 (the best) to Level 3 (the worst). The Company uses these three levels to select inputs for valuation techniques:
| Level I | Level 2 | Level 3 | ||
| Level 1 is a quoted price for an identical item in an active market on the measurement date. Level 1 is the most reliable evidence of fair value and is used whenever this information is available. | Level 2 is directly or indirectly observable inputs other than quoted prices. An example of a Level 2 input is a valuation multiple for a business unit, based on the sales, EBITDA, or net income of comparable companies. | Level 3 is an unobservable input. It may include the company’s data, adjusted for other reasonably available information. Examples of a Level 3 input are an internally generated financial forecast. |
The Company follows ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, to account for earnings per share. Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. As of March 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company had weighted and basic and dilutive shares issued and outstanding.
During the period ended March 31, 2025, common stock equivalents were dilutive due to net income. Hence, they were considered in the computation.
During the period ended March 31, 2024, common stock equivalents were dilutive due to net income. Hence, they were considered in the computation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, including most industry-specific requirements. ASU 2014-09 establishes a five-step revenue recognition process; an entity will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows from customers’ contracts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one (1) year. The Company adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method, applying it to all contracts not completed as of January 1, 2019. The Company presents results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019, under ASC 606, while prior period amounts are reported in accordance with legacy GAAP.

While the Company has adequate liquidity to sustain its existing business activities, its strategic growth initiatives, particularly in the development of financial technologies, may require additional capital investment. To accelerate expansion and enhance its technological offerings, the Company may seek external financing through private equity, public markets, or credit facilities. However, the availability and terms of such financing cannot be guaranteed.
Management remains focused on strengthening the company’s financial position by expanding its global customer base, increasing revenue from its diversified portfolio of technological solutions, and working toward achieving a positive cash flow. To support long-term growth, the Company also plans to invest in long-lived assets that will drive economic benefits beyond the fiscal year 2025. Additionally, Management may explore revolving loan agreements with financial institutions or other funding options, as needed, to complement its organic growth strategy.
The Management intends to continue its efforts to enhance its revenue from its diversified portfolio of technological solutions, become cash flow positive, and raise funds through private placement offerings and debt financing. See Note 8 for Notes Payable. As the Company increases its global customer base, it intends to acquire long-lived assets that will provide future economic benefits beyond fiscal year 2025.

CIM Acquisition Termination
On July 31, 2023, the Company sent the notice of termination of the purchase agreement to CIM Securities, as future events may result in a change of ownership in the CMA application.

Our board has mandated that the management team focus on expanding and developing our core non-US foreign exchange business to maximize shareholder value.
Bank Acquisition Termination
In April 2024, the Company terminated the letter of intent to acquire a community bank in Iowa. As part of the termination, the Company paid the community bank a sum of $100,000 in six equal installments of $15,000, plus one final payment of $10,000, from April 2024 to November 2024.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended March 31, 2025, compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
The consolidated revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024 were $10,112,368 and $6,376,335, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company reported net income of $301,002 and $833,445, respectively.
The total revenue breakdown for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024 is below:
| Three Months Ended | March 31, 2025 | March 31, 2024 | ||||||
| Revenue Description | % of Total | % of Total | ||||||
| Technology Solutions | 8.05 | % | 4.01 | % | ||||
| Wealth Management | 15.18 | % | 23.74 | % | ||||
| Brokerage | 76.77 | % | 72.25 | % | ||||
| Total | 100.00 | % | 100.00 | % | ||||
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company incurred general and administrative costs (“G&A”) of $4,520,014 and $2,299,134, respectively (excluding amortization expenses). The increase in G&A for the three months ended March 31, 2025, is due to the inclusion of general and administrative costs of all subsidiaries. The G&A costs were 44.70% and 36.06% of the revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively.
The rental expense was $61,150 and $49,162 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively.
The Company incurred $276,204 and $46,925 in sales, marketing, and advertising costs (“sales and marketing”) for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, we had cash balances of $26,996,932 and $24,781,389, respectively. At March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the working capital surplus was $10,082,745 and $9,097,591, respectively. The increase in working capital surplus was primarily due to the acquisition of AML and APL, resulting in an increase in current assets over current liabilities as of March 31, 2025.
We generate a substantial portion of our operating income outside the United States, which is indefinitely reinvested in foreign jurisdictions. Consequently, as outlined under “Cash and Cash Equivalent,” the majority of our cash and short-term investments are held by our foreign subsidiaries. At present, we do not intend to repatriate these funds and do not foresee a need to do so.
The company maintains multiple sources of liquidity, including cash flow from operations, potential capital raises, and strategic financing arrangements. FDCTech is actively managing its working capital to support ongoing business expansion, including the development of its Condor Trading Technology, regulatory compliance initiatives, and integration of newly acquired entities.
Key liquidity factors include:
| ● | Operating Cash Flow: The company continues to invest in technology infrastructure and operational efficiency to drive sustainable revenue growth. | |
| ● | Capital Expenditures: Investment in proprietary trading platforms and software development remains a priority. | |
| ● | Financing Activities: FDCTech has historically relied on equity offerings, debt instruments, and related-party financing to support its expansion. Future capital-raising efforts may be necessary to fund acquisitions and market expansion. |
Management believes that existing cash reserves, combined with expected revenue growth and potential financing opportunities, will provide sufficient liquidity to meet both operational and strategic needs. However, external market conditions, regulatory changes, and acquisition-related expenditures could impact future liquidity requirements.
We anticipate that our existing domestic cash, short-term investments, and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund our domestic operating activities and fulfill our cash commitments for investing and financing activities, such as regular quarterly dividends, debt repayments, and capital expenditures, for at least the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future.
Should we require additional capital in the United States beyond what our domestic operations generate—for instance, to fund significant discretionary activities such as business acquisitions or share repurchases—we could choose to repatriate future earnings from foreign jurisdictions or raise capital within the United States through debt or equity issuances. These alternatives may result in higher effective tax rates, increased interest expenses, or dilution of our earnings. We have previously borrowed funds domestically and believe that we can continue to do so at reasonable interest rates.
Over the next 12 months, the Company will continue investing in sales, marketing, product development, and technology solutions to enhance customer service and expand its market presence. Capital expenditures are anticipated to rise to $1.000,000. This allocation will encompass working capital, software development, sales and marketing initiatives, as well as infrastructure enhancements, including the procurement of computers and servers.
The company expects that its existing cash reserves, cash equivalents, operational cash flows, and access to private equity and capital markets will be sufficient to fund operations for at least the next 12 months. These resources will support continued business operations, including debt obligations and significant capital expenditures. However, achieving sustainable revenue growth may require additional funding, and there is no guarantee that financing will be available on favorable terms.
If additional capital is required, the company may consider restructuring or refinancing existing debt, securing financing from financial institutions, or raising funds through private equity or debt issuance. FDCTech remains committed to expanding its operations while exploring strategic funding opportunities to support long-term growth.

As of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the accumulated deficit was $2,283,928 and $2,563,620. Our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph in their reports on the audited financial statements for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2024, and 2023, regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements include additional note disclosures that describe the circumstances leading to this disclosure by our independent auditors. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result in the Company being unable to continue as a going concern.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
We have based our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations on our financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In preparing our financial statements, we must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting periods.
In more detail, we have described significant accounting policies in Note 2 of our annual financial statements included in our 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on October 15, 2024. We continually evaluate our critical accounting estimates and judgments, as required by our policies, and update them as necessary based on changing conditions.
JOBS Act Accounting Election
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued after the enactment of the JOBS Act until those standards apply to private companies. As an emerging growth company, we have applied for an exemption; as a result, the Company may delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until the standards apply to private companies.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
We have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(c) of the SEC’s Regulation S-B. We had no relationships with unconsolidated organizations or financial partnerships, such as structured finance or special purpose entities that would have been established to facilitate off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company evaluates all Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) for applicability and impact on its consolidated financial statements.
We have adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and ASC 842 (formerly ASU 2016-02, Leases) as of March 31, 2020. The amendments in these ASUs are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption was permitted and consistent with SEC guidance; we implemented these standards as required. The adoption of these standards did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
The Company has reviewed recently issued ASUs that are not yet effective and expects no significant impact on its financial statements or disclosures upon adoption. As a smaller reporting company, we have elected to take advantage of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards, as permitted by the JOBS Act and SEC rules applicable to emerging growth companies.
For a more detailed description of our significant and critical accounting policies, please refer to Note 2 in the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025.

| ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS. |
Not Applicable.
| ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer (together, the “Certifying Officers”), we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on the foregoing, our Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this Report.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Certifying Officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended. Management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2024. In making this assessment, management utilized the criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in its 2013 Framework for Internal Control. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our company,
(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding the prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not be effective in preventing or detecting errors or misstatements in our consolidated financial statements. Additionally, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness in future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2025. Based on our assessments, management determined that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2024, due to the material weakness in our internal controls due to inadequate segregation of duties within account processes due to limited personnel and insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting, IT, and financial reporting and record keeping.
Management intends to implement remediation steps to enhance our internal controls, addressing inadequate segregation of duties within account processes, limited personnel resources, and insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting, IT, financial reporting, and record-keeping. We plan to further improve this process by enhancing the size and composition of our board upon the closing of the business identifying third-party professionals with whom to consult regarding complex accounting applications, and consideration of additional staff with the requisite experience and training to supplement existing accounting professionals and implemented additional layers of reviews in the internal controls and financial reporting process.
This Report does not include an attestation report from our independent registered public accounting firm, as we are an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the three months Ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.
| ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. |
On December 23, 2023, the Company received legal correspondence and supporting documents addressed to APSI Holdings Limited (formerly Alchemy Prime Holdings Limited) and FDCTech, Inc. The nature of the legal claims or disputes has not been fully specified in the received correspondence. The Company is assessing the situation and will respond appropriately. While management cannot predict the outcome of these matters, any adverse resolution could potentially have a material impact on the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. The Company intends to defend its interests vigorously and will provide further updates as material developments arise.
Management is unaware of any other actions, suits, investigations, or proceedings (public or private) pending or threatened against or affecting any of the assets or any affiliate of the Company.
| Item 1A. | Risk Factors. |
In accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q, the Company, as a smaller reporting company, is not required to disclose this item.

In February 2025, the Company issued 10,000 Series B preferred stock to Nick G. Kundnani for a cash value of $14,100.

| 5. | The registrant’s other certifying officer(s) and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the registrant’s auditors and the audit committee of the registrant’s board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions): |
