Exhibit 99.1

MACHTEN, INC.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

As previously reported, on August 31, 2023, LICT Corporation (“LICT”) distributed to the holders of its common stock, by way of a pro rata dividend (the “spin-off”), 81% of the common stock of MachTen, Inc. (“MachTen” or the “Company”). Prior to the spin-off and in contemplation thereof, on August 8, 2023, the Company entered into a Contribution Agreement with LICT, pursuant to which LICT contributed all the shares of its wholly-owned subsidiary, LMT Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“LMT Holding”), and each of LMT Holding’s indirect wholly-owned operating subsidiaries which operate in Michigan providing regulated and unregulated internet access broadband and communications services, in exchange for (i) 3,172,407 shares of MachTen’s common stock and (ii) a cash dividend in the amount of $15 million (the “Contribution”).

The accompanying pro forma condensed consolidated financial information was prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X under the Exchange Act and present the pro forma statement of operations and pro forma balance sheet of MAC based on the historical carve-out financial statements of LMT Holding after giving effect to the spin-off. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared to reflect transaction accounting and autonomous entity adjustments to present the financial condition and results of operations as if we were a separate stand-alone entity. MAC had nominal assets and no liabilities, and conducted no operations prior to the date of this information statement. Therefore, we believe that a presentation of the historical results of MAC would not be meaningful. Accordingly, the following pro forma condensed consolidated financial information includes only the financial data of LMT Holding as of June 30, 2023.

The accompanying MAC pro forma financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the actual results that would have been achieved if the transactions had been consummated for the periods presented or that will be achieved in the future. The pro forma financial statements do not reflect the costs of any integration activities or benefits that may result from realization of revenue growth or operational synergies expected to result from the transactions. The pro forma financial statements do not include management adjustments.

The unaudited pro forma balance sheet as of June 30, 2023 has been prepared giving effect to the spin-off as if this transaction had occurred as of June 30, 2023. The unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 has been prepared giving effect to the spin-off as if this transaction had occurred on January 1, 2023.

The unaudited pro forma balance sheet and the unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 have been prepared to reflect transaction accounting and autonomous entity adjustments to the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements to present the financial condition and results of operations as if we were a separate stand-alone entity.

In addition, throughout the periods presented in the pro forma financial statements, the operations of LMT Holding were conducted and accounted for as part of LICT using accounting conventions applicable to LMT Holding that could differ in the future. The audited historical carve-out consolidated financial statements and unaudited historical condensed consolidated financial statements of LMT Holding have been derived from LMT Holding accounting records and reflect certain allocations of expenses. All of the allocations and estimates in such financial statements are based on assumptions that LMT Holding management believes are reasonable. The historical condensed consolidated carve-out financial statements of the LMT Holding do not necessarily represent the financial position or results of operations of MAC had it been operated as a standalone company during the periods or at the dates presented.

We expect to enter into a Transitional Services Agreement with LICT under which limited services will be provided to us upon consummation of the transactions until the applicable term for each service has expired or has otherwise been terminated. We do not expect the cost of these services to be substantially different from expenses reflected in our historical financial statements. See “Ancillary Agreements” for further discussion of the Transitional Services Agreement.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information presented below should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and LMT Holding’s historical annual consolidated carve-out financial statements and corresponding notes thereto included elsewhere in this information statement. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information reflects certain known impacts as a result of the Distribution to separate the Company from LICT.

This unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information has been presented for informational purposes only and is not intended to reflect the results of operations or the financial position of LMT Holding which would have actually resulted had the spin-off been effected on the dates indicated. Furthermore, the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved in the future. They should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes thereto of LMT Holding.
