AMENDED AND RESTATED
BYLAWS
OF
OPENWORLD, INC.
I. REFERENCES TO CERTAIN TERMS AND CONSTRUCTION
1.01. Certain References. Any reference herein made to law shall be deemed to refer to the law of the State of Nevada, including any applicable provision of Chapters 75, 78 and 92A of Title 7 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, or any successor statutes, as from time to time amended and in effect (sometimes referred to herein as the “NRS”). Any reference herein made to the Company’s “Articles” shall be deemed to refer to its Articles of Incorporation and all amendments thereto and/or restatements thereof as at any given time on file with the Nevada Secretary of State. Except as otherwise required by the NRS, the term “stockholder” as used herein shall mean one who is a holder of record of shares of the Company.
1.02. Seniority. The law (including the NRS) and the Articles (in that order of precedence) shall in all respects be considered senior and superior to these Amended and Restated Bylaws (as amended from time to time, these “Bylaws”), with any inconsistency to be resolved in favor of the law and the Articles (in that order of precedence), and with these Bylaws to be deemed automatically amended from time to time to eliminate any such inconsistency which may then exist.
1.03. Computation of Time. Unless otherwise provided in the NRS, the time during which an act is required to be done, including the time for the giving of any required notice herein, shall be computed by excluding the first day or hour, as the case may be, and including the last day or hour.
II. OFFICES
2.01. Registered Office; Principal Office. The registered office of the Company in the State of Nevada shall be the office of its registered agent, as reflected in the records of the Nevada Secretary of State. The Company may change its registered office from time to time in accordance with the relevant provisions of the NRS. The principal office or place of business of the Company shall be located at such place, within or outside the State of Nevada, as the Board of Directors may from time to time designate. The Company may have such other offices, either within or without the State of Nevada, as the Board of Directors may designate or as the business of the Company may require from time to time.
III. STOCKHOLDERS
3.01. Annual Stockholders Meeting. An annual meeting of the stockholders shall be held on such date, at such time and physical location, either within or without the State of Nevada, and by such means of remote communication, if any, as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors and stated in the notice of the meeting, at which meetings the stockholders shall elect members of the Board of Directors and transact such other business as may properly come before the meeting. The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion and in compliance with applicable laws, determine that an annual meeting of stockholders shall not be held at any physical location, but instead may be held solely by means of remote communication equipment.
3.02. Special Stockholders Meetings. Subject to the rights of the holder of any series of Preferred Stock (as defined in the Articles) of the Company, unless otherwise prescribed by the NRS or by the Articles, special meetings of the stockholders, for any purpose, may be called only by the Chief Executive Officer, the Chairperson of the Board of Directors, or the President of the Company, and shall be called by the Chief Executive Officer, the President, or the Secretary of the Company upon a written request signed by a majority of members of the Board of Directors (whether or not there exists any vacancy in previously authorized directorships at the time any such resolution is presented to the Board of Directors for adoption). Any business to be transacted at a special meeting of stockholders must be confined to the purposes stated in the notice of the stockholders’ meeting and to such additional matters as the chair of the meeting may rule to be relevant to such purposes. The Board of Directors shall designate the place for any meeting of stockholders, and if no designation is made, the stockholders’ meeting shall take place at the principal office of the Company.
3.03. Notice of Stockholders Meetings.
(a) Required Notice. Except as otherwise allowed or required by the NRS, written notice stating the place, day and hour of any annual or special stockholders meeting shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting by or at the direction of the person or persons calling the meeting, to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting and to any other stockholder entitled to receive notice of the meeting by the NRS or the Articles. Such notice may be given either personally or by sending a copy thereof through the mail, by private delivery service (including overnight courier), or by email transmission, charges prepaid, to each stockholder at his or her address as it appears on the records of the Company. If the notice is sent by mail, or by private delivery service, it shall be deemed to have been given to the person entitled thereto when deposited in the United States mail or private delivery service for transmission to such person. If the notice is sent by email, and the Company is subject to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, it shall comply with the rules regarding email delivery.
(b) Adjourned or Postponed Meetings. If any stockholders meeting is adjourned to a different date, time, or place, notice need not be given of the new date, time, and physical location, if the new date, time, and place are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. But if a meeting is adjourned or postponed for more than sixty (60) days, or if after the adjournment or postponement a new record date is fixed for the adjourned or postponed meeting, then notice of the adjourned or postponed meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to such notice pursuant to Section 3.03(a).
(c) Waiver of Notice. Any stockholder may waive notice of a meeting (or any notice of any other action required to be given by the NRS, the Articles, or these Bylaws), at any time before, during, or after the meeting or other action, by a writing signed by the stockholder entitled to the notice. Each such waiver shall be delivered to the Company for inclusion in the minutes or filing with the corporate records. Attendance of a stockholder at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of the meeting, except when the stockholder attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.
(d) Contents of Notice. The notice of each special stockholders meeting shall include a description of the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Except as required by the NRS or the Company’s Articles, the notice of an annual stockholders meeting need not include a description of the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called.
3.04. Fixing of Record Date. For the purpose of determining stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment or postponement thereof, or in order to make a determination of stockholders for any other proper purpose, unless a period of more than 60 days or a period of less than 10 days is prescribed or fixed in the Articles, the directors may prescribe a period not exceeding 60 days before any meeting of the stockholders during which no transfer of stock on the books of the corporation may be made, or may fix, in advance, a record date not more than 60 or less than 10 days before the date of any such meeting as the date as of which stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at such meetings must be determined. Only stockholders of record on that date are entitled to notice and to vote at such a meeting. If a record date is not fixed, the record date is at the close of business on the day before the day on which the first notice is given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day before the meeting is held. In the case of determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting (which entitlement shall be limited as set forth in Section 3.13), the record date shall not be more than ten (10) days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors. In the case of determining stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the record date shall be not more than sixty (60) days prior to such action. If no record date is so fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for the determination of stockholders shall be as provided in the NRS.
When a determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at any meeting of stockholders has been made as provided in this Section 3.04, such determination shall apply to any adjournment or postponement thereof, unless the Board of Directors fixes a new record date.
3.05. Stockholder Quorum and Voting Requirements. Unless otherwise provided in the Articles, these Bylaws or as required by the NRS:
(a) 33 1/3% of the shares entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy (regardless of whether the proxy has authority to vote on any matter), shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of stockholders;
(b) in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the majority of shares voting for or against the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders;
(c) a nominee for director shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at any meeting of stockholders;
(d) where a separate vote by a class or classes is required, a majority of the outstanding shares of such class or classes, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter and the affirmative vote of the majority of shares of such class or classes present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting shall be the act of such class.
Unless otherwise provided in the Articles, all elections of directors shall be by written ballot. No ballot or change of vote shall be accepted after the polls have been declared closed following the ending of the announced time for voting.
3.06. Proxies. At any meeting of the stockholders, any stockholder may be represented and vote by a proxy or proxies appointed by an instrument in writing. In the event that any such instrument in writing shall designate two (2) or more persons to act as proxies, a majority of such persons present at the meeting, or, if only one shall be present, then that one shall have and may exercise all of the powers conferred by such written instrument upon all the persons so designated unless the instrument shall otherwise provide. No such proxy shall be valid after the expiration of six (6) months from the date of its execution, unless coupled with an interest or unless the person executing it specifies therein the length of time for which it is to continue in force, which in no case shall exceed seven (7) years from the date of its execution. Subject to the above, any proxy duly executed is not revoked and continues in full force and effect until an instrument revoking it or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date is filed with the Secretary of the Company.
3.07. Voting of Shares. Unless otherwise provided in the Articles (including any then-effective certificate of designation relating to any series of Preferred Stock), the NRS, or these Bylaws, each outstanding share entitled to vote shall be entitled to one (1) vote upon each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of stockholders.
3.08. Election Inspectors. The Board of Directors, in advance of any meeting of the stockholders, may appoint an election inspector or inspectors to act at such meeting (and at any adjournment thereof). If an election inspector or inspectors are not so appointed, the chair of the meeting may, or upon request of any person entitled to vote at the meeting will, make such appointment. If any person appointed as an inspector fails to appear or to act, a substitute may be appointed by the chair of the meeting. If appointed, the election inspector or inspectors (acting through a majority of them if there be more than one) shall determine the number of shares outstanding, the authenticity, validity, and effect of proxies, the credentials of persons purporting to be stockholders or persons named or referred to in proxies, and the number of shares represented at the meeting in person and by proxy; shall receive and count votes, ballots, and consents and announce the results thereof; shall hear and determine all challenges and questions pertaining to proxies and voting; and, in general, shall perform such acts as may be proper to conduct elections and voting with complete fairness to all stockholders. No such election inspector need be a stockholder of the Company.
3.09. Organization and Conduct of Meetings. Each meeting of the stockholders shall be called to order and thereafter chaired by the Chairperson of the Board of Directors if there is one, or, if not, or if the Chairperson of the Board of Directors is absent or so requests, then by the Chief Executive Officer or President, or if both the Chairperson of the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer or President are unavailable, then by such other officer of the Company or such stockholder as may be appointed by the Board of Directors. The Company’s Secretary or in his or her absence, an Assistant Secretary shall act as secretary of each meeting of the stockholders. If neither the Secretary nor an Assistant Secretary is in attendance, the chair of the meeting may appoint any person (whether a stockholder or not) to act as secretary for the meeting. After calling a meeting to order, the chair thereof may require the registration of all stockholders intending to vote in person and the filing of all proxies with the election inspector or inspectors, if one or more have been appointed (or, if not, with the secretary of the meeting). After the announced time for such filing of proxies has ended, no further proxies or changes, substitutions, or revocations of proxies shall be accepted. If directors are to be elected, a tabulation of the proxies so filed will, if any person entitled to vote in such election so requests, be announced at the meeting (or adjournment thereof) prior to the closing of the election polls. Absent a showing of bad faith on his or her part, the chair of a meeting will, among other things, have absolute authority to fix the period of time allowed for the registration of stockholders and the filing of proxies, to determine the order of business to be conducted at such meeting, and to establish reasonable rules for expediting the business of the meeting and preserving the orderly conduct thereof (including any informal, or question and answer portions thereof).
3.10. Informalities and Irregularities. All informalities or irregularities in any call or notice of a meeting of the stockholders or in the areas of credentials, proxies, quorums, voting, and similar matters, shall be deemed waived if no objection is made at the meeting.
3.11. Nomination of Directors. Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the following procedures shall be eligible for election as directors of the Company (except as may be otherwise provided in the Articles with respect to any right of holders of Preferred Stock to nominate and elect a specified number of directors). Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made at any annual meeting of stockholders, or at any special meeting of the stockholders called for the purpose of electing one or more directors pursuant to NRS 78.330: (a) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors (or any duly authorized committee thereof); or (b) by any stockholder of the Company who, (i) is a stockholder of record on the date of the giving of the notice provided for in this Section 3.11 and on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at such annual meeting, and (ii) who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 3.11.
In addition to any other applicable requirements, for a nomination to be made by a stockholder, such stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the Secretary of the Company, as prescribed below.
No person shall be elected to the Board of Directors of the Company at an annual meeting of the stockholders unless, with respect to a person nominated by a stockholder of the Company, a written notice of nomination of such person by the stockholder was received by the Secretary of the Company not earlier than one hundred and twenty (120) days and not later than ninety (90) days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting is called for a date that is not within 30 days before or after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder in order to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed or public disclosure of the date of the annual meeting was made, whichever first occurs; and, in the case of a special meeting of the stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors pursuant to NRS 78.330, not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which notice of the date of the special meeting was mailed or public disclosure of the date of the special meeting was made, whichever first occurs. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of a meeting of stockholders commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.
To be in proper written form, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must set forth: (a) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election as a director, (i) the name, age, business address and residence address of the person, (ii) the principal occupation or employment of the person, (iii) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Company which are owned beneficially or of record by the person, and (iv) any other information relating to the person that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; and (b) as to the stockholder giving the notice, (i) the name and record address of such stockholder, (ii) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Company which are owned beneficially or of record by such stockholder, (iii) a description of all arrangements or understandings between such stockholder and each proposed nominee and any other person or persons (including their names) pursuant to which the nomination(s) are to be made by such stockholder, (iv) a representation that such stockholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the persons named in its notice, and (v) any other information relating to such stockholder that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Such notice must be accompanied by a written consent of each proposed nominee to being named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected and the Company may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Company to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the Company.
No person shall be eligible for election as a director of the Company unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.11. If the chair of the meeting determines that a nomination was not made in accordance with the foregoing procedures, the chair shall declare to the meeting that the nomination was defective and such defective nomination shall be disregarded.
Notwithstanding compliance with the foregoing provisions, the Board of Directors shall not be obligated to include information as to any stockholder nominee for director in any proxy statement or other communication sent to stockholders.
3.12. Business at Stockholder Meetings. No business may be transacted at an annual or special meeting of stockholders other than business that is: (a) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors (or any duly authorized committee thereof); (b) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors (or any duly authorized committee thereof); or (c) in the case of an annual meeting, otherwise properly brought before the meeting by any stockholder of the Company, (i) who is a stockholder of record on the date of the giving of the notice provided for in this Section 3.12 and on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, and (ii) who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 3.12.
In addition to any other applicable requirements of law or the Articles, for business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, such stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the Secretary of the Company. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Company not earlier than one hundred and twenty (120) days and not later than ninety (90) days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting is called for a date that is not within thirty (30) days before or after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder in order to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which such notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed or such public disclosure of the date of the meeting was made, whichever first occurs. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.
To be in proper written form, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary with respect to any proposal (not involving the nomination of directors, which shall be brought in accordance with Article III, Section 3.11 of these Bylaws) to be brought before the annual meeting must set forth as to each such proposal: (a) the text of the proposal to be presented (including the text of any resolutions to be proposed for consideration by the stockholders), together with a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting; (b) the name and record address of such stockholder; (c) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Company that are owned beneficially or of record by such stockholder; (d) a description of all arrangements or understandings between such stockholder and any other person or persons (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business by such stockholder and any material interest of such stockholder in such business; and (e) a representation that such stockholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to bring such business before the meeting.
No business may be conducted at an annual or special meeting of stockholders except business brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.12, provided, however, that, once business has been properly brought before the meeting in accordance with such procedures, nothing in this Section 3.12 shall be deemed to preclude discussion by any stockholder of any such business. If the chair of an annual or special meeting determines that business was not properly brought before such meeting in accordance with the foregoing procedures, the chair shall declare to the meeting that the business was not properly brought before the meeting and such business shall not be transacted.
IV. BOARD OF DIRECTORS
4.01. General Powers. The business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors.
4.02. Number, Tenure, and Qualification of Directors. The number of directors which shall constitute the full Board of Directors of the Company shall not be fewer than three (3) nor more than nine (9). The number of directors in office from time to time shall be within the limits specified above, except as prescribed from time to time by resolution adopted by either the stockholders or by the Board of Directors. Each director elected shall hold office for the term for which such director is elected and until such director’s successor is elected or appointed and qualified or until such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal. In accordance with the Articles, at each annual meeting of stockholders, directors shall be elected for a term of office expiring at the next annual meeting of stockholders, or until such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal.
4.03. Regular Meetings of the Board of Directors. A regular annual meeting of the Board of Directors is to be held as soon as practicable after the adjournment of each annual meeting of the stockholders, either at the place of the stockholders meeting or at such other place or in whole or in part by such means of remote communication as the directors elected at the stockholders meeting may have been informed of at or prior to the time of their election. Additional regular meetings may be held at regular intervals at such places or means of remote communication and at such times as the Board of Directors may determine.
4.04. Special Meetings of the Board of Directors. Subject to any rights of holders of Preferred Stock, if any, special meetings of the Board of Directors may be held whenever, however and wherever called for by the Chairperson of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, or the number of directors that would be required to constitute a quorum.
4.05. Notice of, and Waiver of Notice for, Directors Meetings. No notice need be given of regular meetings of the Board of Directors. Notice of the time and place and method of remote communication, if any (but not necessarily the purpose or all of the purposes) of any special meeting shall be given to each director in person or by telephone or email. Notice to any director of any such special meeting shall be deemed given sufficiently in advance when: (a), if given by mail, the same is deposited in the United States mail at least four (4) days before the meeting date, with postage thereon prepaid; (b), if given by email, the same is transmitted at least 24 hours prior to the convening of the meeting; or (c), if personally delivered (including by overnight courier), the same is handed, or the substance thereof is communicated telephonically or electronically to the director or to an adult member of his or her office staff or household, at least 24 hours prior to the convening of the meeting. Any director may waive notice of any meeting and any adjournment thereof at any time before, during, or after it is held, as provided by the NRS. Except as provided in the next sentence below, the waiver must be in writing, signed by the director entitled to the notice, and filed with the minutes or corporate records. The attendance of a director at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.
4.06. Director Quorum. A majority of the total number of directors then in office shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of the Board of Directors, unless the Articles requires a greater number. If there are less than three directors in office, and as set forth in Section 4.10, the directors shall have the power to fill vacancies on the Board of Directors.
4.07. Directors, Manner of Acting.
(a) The affirmative vote of a majority of the directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the Board of Directors unless the Articles or these Bylaws require a greater percentage and except as otherwise required by the NRS.
(b) Any or all directors may participate in a regular or special meeting by, or conduct the meeting through the use of, conference telephone, videoconference or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting may hear each other, in which case any required notice of such meeting may generally describe the arrangements (rather than or in addition to the place) for the holding thereof. A director participating in a meeting by this means is deemed to be present in person at the meeting.
(c) A director who is present at a meeting of the Board of Directors or a committee of the Board of Directors when corporate action is taken is deemed to have assented to the action taken unless, (i) the director objects at the beginning of the meeting (or promptly upon his or her arrival) to holding it or transacting business at the meeting, or (ii) his or her dissent or abstention from the action taken is entered in the minutes of the meeting. The right of dissent or abstention is not available to a director who votes in favor of the action taken.
4.08. Director Action Without a Meeting. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Board of Directors at a meeting may be taken without a meeting if the action is taken by unanimous written consent of the Board of Directors as evidenced by one (1) or more written consents describing the action taken, signed, either manually or electronically including email consent, by each director and filed with the minutes or proceedings of the Board of Directors.
4.09. Removal of Directors by Stockholders. Subject to any rights of the holders of Preferred Stock, if any, and except as limited by the Articles or by the NRS, a director may be removed by the stockholders only at an annual meeting of stockholders or at a special meeting of stockholders called for such purpose and otherwise in conformity with these Bylaws, and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the voting power of all the shares entitled to vote at such meeting.
4.10. Board of Directors Vacancies. Subject to the Articles, any rights of the holders of Preferred Stock, if any, and except as otherwise provided by the NRS, any vacancy or newly created directorship may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office (whether or not a quorum), or by a sole remaining director. Any director so chosen shall hold office for the unexpired portion of the term of the class of directors in which the new directorship was created or the vacancy occurred and until his or her successor shall have been elected or appointed and qualified or until any such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal.
4.11. Director Compensation. Unless otherwise provided in the Articles, by resolution of the Board of Directors, each director may be paid his or her expenses, if any, of attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, and may be paid a stated fee for service as director or a fixed sum for attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, or both. No such payment shall preclude any director from serving the Company in any capacity and receiving compensation therefor.
4.12. Director Committees.

10.01. Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted under the NRS (including, without limitation, NRS 78.7502, NRS 78.751 and NRS 78.752) and other applicable law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, the Company shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend any person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including as a member or manager of a limited liability company), including service with respect to employee benefit plans, from and against any and all of the expenses, liabilities or other matters referred to therein or covered thereby.

Consolidated Financial Statements of Open World Ltd. for the Years Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of
Open World Ltd.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Open World Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the Group) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Group’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Group’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 Group in accordance with 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Group 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 Group’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.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
| F-3 |
Revenue Recognition
As described in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Group recognizes revenue from contracts with customers through the following steps: identification of the contract, or contracts, with the customer, identification of the performance obligations in the contract, determination of the transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and recognition of the revenue when, or as, the Group satisfies a performance obligation. Revenue is recognized when the performance obligations of the services are satisfied, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Group expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services.
| · | For Advisory and Onboarding, revenue is recognized ratably over time as administrative services are provided. Compensation is typically a fixed monthly fee, payable in US dollars or stablecoins. |
| · | For Digital Assets and Capital Markets Infrastructure, revenue is recognized at the vesting date of tokens, which aligns with the satisfaction of performance obligations under the related service agreements. Vesting commences no earlier than the Token Generation Event, when an observable market price exists and rights to tokens are legally enforceable. The Group measures such revenue at the fair value of tokens on the vesting date, using end-of-day (UTC) pricing. |
Given these factors, the related audit effort in evaluating management’s judgments in identifying performance obligations for these customer agreements was extensive and required a high degree of auditor judgment.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the financial statements. Our procedures related to the Group’s identification of performance obligations included, among others:
| · | We evaluated management’s significant accounting policies related to these customer agreements for reasonableness. |
| · | We obtained and read revenue contracts and evaluated the completeness of the performance obligations identified by management, and performed an evaluation of whether these performance obligations were distinct and capable of being distinct. |
| · | For each contract with multiple performance obligations, we also tested the recorded revenue to each performance based obligation. |
| · | Performed journal entry testing focused on revenue to identify unusual or fraudulent entries. |

Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
| 1. | NATURE OF OPERATIONS |
Open World Ltd. was incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Open World Ltd. and its subsidiaries (“OpenWorld”, the “Company”, or the “Group”) operate at the intersection of institutional capital markets, enterprise blockchain infrastructure, and real-world asset tokenization.
On October 9, 2025, the Company completed a corporate reorganization (the “Reorganization”) pursuant to which Open World Ltd. became the parent company of Open World Inc., Webslinger Advisors SEZC Inc., and Open World Wyoming Inc. The Reorganization was a transaction among entities under common control and was accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. In accordance with ASC 805-50, these comparative consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a retrospective basis as if the Reorganization had occurred on October 4, 2023.
| 2. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
[a] Accounting standards
The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and are expressed in U.S. dollars. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared for audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are intended to be included in a future filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company will evaluate and update the presentation and disclosures as necessary once the specific SEC form and related requirements are determined.
[b] Critical accounting estimates and judgments
Preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. Significant estimates, assumptions and judgements include judgment in determining performance obligations; fair value measurement of crypto assets and receivables denominated in crypto assets; the assessment of collectability of accounts receivable; the valuation of privately-held strategic investments, including impairments; the identification and valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations; loss contingency identification and valuation, including assessing the likelihood of adverse outcomes from positions, claims, and disputes, recoveries of losses recorded, and associated timing. The Group is also exposed to risks inherent in crypto assets, including price volatility, liquidity, and counterparty risks.
Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions due to risks and uncertainties. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, the consolidated financial statements will be affected. The Group bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the result of which forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.
| 3. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements by the Group.
| F-10 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
[a] Principles of consolidation
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and controlled subsidiaries. Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in these consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
[b] Revenue Recognition
The Group determines revenue recognition from contracts with customers through the following steps:
| § | identification of the contract, or contracts, with the customer; |
| § | identification of the performance obligations in the contract; |
| § | determination of the transaction price; |
| § | allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and |
| § | recognition of the revenue when, or as, the Group satisfies a performance obligation. |
Revenue is recognized when performance obligations are satisfied, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Group expects to be entitled to in exchange for its activities.
Advisory and Onboarding
Revenue is recognized ratably over time as performance obligations are satisfied. Compensation is typically a fixed monthly fee, payable in US dollars or stablecoins.
Digital Assets and Capital Markets Infrastructure
Revenue is recognized at the vesting date of tokens, which aligns with the satisfaction of performance obligations under the underlying arrangements. Vesting commences no earlier than the Token Generation Event, when an observable market price exists and rights to tokens are legally enforceable. The Group measures such revenue at the fair value of tokens on the vesting date, using end-of-day (23:59:59 UTC) pricing.
[c] Cost of sales
Cost of sales primarily consists of direct costs incurred to deliver the Group’s advisory and onboarding, digital assets, and capital markets capabilities. These costs are recognized in the period in which the related performance obligations are satisfied and revenue is recognized. Cost of sales primarily includes:
Professional and Consulting Fees: Fees paid to third-party providers, contractors, external specialists, and other consultants who support the Group’s revenue-generating activities.
Technology and Infrastructure Costs: Direct expenses related to hosting, cloud computing, blockchain network usage, cybersecurity support, and other infrastructure required to fulfill performance obligations under customer contracts.
Other Direct Costs: Out-of-pocket expenses incurred in fulfilling customer contracts, including reimbursed client costs, transaction-specific expenditures, data services, travel, and similar costs directly related to advisory and onboarding, digital assets or capital markets activities.
Costs not directly attributable to revenue-generating activities are recorded within Operating Expenses, including general and administrative costs, consulting and management fees, bad debt provisions, insurance, corporate legal and professional fees, travel not tied to customer contracts, and operating lease expenses.
| F-11 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
[d] Consulting and management fees
Consulting and management fees consist primarily of compensation-related costs for personnel who support the Company’s operations, including (i) wages and salaries for employees and (ii) fees and costs paid to independent contractors and consultants (collectively, “team wages”). These amounts may also include employer payroll taxes and other personnel-related costs, as applicable. Consulting and management fees are recognized as expense as the related activities are performed (generally on a straight-line basis over the service period when billed at fixed rates) and are classified within operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Amounts owed but not yet paid at the reporting date are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and prepayments for services not yet received are recorded in prepaid expenses and expensed as incurred.
[e] Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consists of receivables from revenues from contracts with customers and other receivables, net of provision for bad debts and bad debt written off. Receivables denominated in crypto assets are contractual rights to receive cash or crypto assets either on demand or on fixed or determinable dates and are recognized as an asset in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Receivables are initially recorded at the transaction price, representing consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled to in exchange for satisfying its performance obligations. For performance obligations satisfied over time, receivables are recognized as revenue is earned, typically monthly or quarterly based on performance obligations. For performance obligations satisfied at a point in time, receivables are recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied.
Certain crypto assets are subject to contractual sale restrictions pursuant to lock-up schedules. Crypto assets subject to lock-up schedules that have not yet been received by the Company are recognized as receivables denominated in crypto assets. As of December 31, 2025, the Company held $1,211,696 (2024: $13,463,445) of receivables subject to such restrictions. The fair value of receivables subject to lock-up schedules includes a discount for lack of marketability. Restriction periods for these receivables range from less than one week to approximately two years.
Receivables denominated in crypto assets represent rights to receive a fixed amount of crypto assets and meet the definition of hybrid financial instruments containing an embedded derivative feature under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The Group accounts for these hybrid instruments in their entirety at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated Statement of Operations within “Net change in fair value of accounts receivable.” This approach reflects both the host receivable component and the embedded derivative feature as a single financial instrument measured at fair value each reporting period.
The Group evaluates collectability based on expected credit losses in accordance with ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recognized based on historical loss experience, the aging of receivable balances, and management’s assessment of current and expected future economic conditions.
[f] Crypto Assets
The Group accounts for cryptocurrencies, tokens, and stablecoins (collectively, “crypto assets”) in accordance with ASC Topic 350-60, Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets (ASU 2023-08), which the Group adopted effective January 1, 2024. This standard supersedes prior indefinite-lived intangible asset treatment and requires qualifying crypto assets to be classified as intangible assets and measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income.
The Group receives crypto assets as a form of consideration under certain of its commercial arrangements, which are recorded as Crypto assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet when received. Under this guidance, crypto assets are measured at fair value, with changes recognized in net income.
| F-12 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Crypto assets are initially recognized at fair value on the date of acquisition or receipt, based on observable quoted market prices. An observable market for crypto assets is determined based on whether quoted prices in active markets are readily and regularly available and whether those prices reflect actual, orderly transactions. For crypto assets with high trading volume across reputable exchanges, the Group concludes there is an observable market and measures fair value based on Level 1 inputs. They are classified as current or non-current assets depending on management’s intent regarding use, including treasury holdings and operational purposes. As the Group’s crypto assets are held for and used in the ordinary course of business, they are classified as current assets.
Crypto assets are remeasured at fair value at each reporting date. All fair value gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated Statement of Operations within “Other Income (Expense) - Net change in fair value of crypto assets.” Gains and losses on crypto asset sales are recognized on a first-in-first-out (“FIFO”) basis. Cash flows from crypto assets held for operations are recorded as Net changes in operating assets and liabilities in the consolidated statement of cash flows.
The Group holds crypto assets in self-custodied wallets and custodial accounts at third-party institutions which require dual authorization for transactions. Disposals occur through approved OTC counterparties, including Wintermute and GSR, or on exchanges.
[g] Leases
The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate, based on the information available at the commencement date, to determine the present value of future lease payments. Right-of-use assets include any prepaid lease payments and exclude any lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. Operating lease expenses are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, consisting of interest accrued on the lease liability and depreciation of the right-of-use asset. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease if it is reasonably certain the Group will exercise that option.
[h] Investments
The Group’s strategic investments primarily include equity investments in public and privately held companies where the Group (1) holds less than 20% ownership in the entity, and (2) does not exercise significant influence. These investments are recorded at cost and measured at fair value. For privately held companies without readily determinable fair values adjusted for: (i) observable transactions for same or similar investments of the same issuer (referred to as the measurement alternative) or (ii) impairment, which are recorded in Other (income) expense, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
[i] Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash held at financial institutions, cash on hand that is not restricted as to withdrawal or use with an initial maturity of three months or less but exclude stablecoins (e.g., USDT, USDC), which are classified as crypto assets and cash held in accounts at venues. Venues include other crypto asset trading platforms and payment processors that hold money and crypto assets.
Funds held at financial institutions
Cash and cash equivalents are primarily placed with financial institutions which are of high credit quality, primarily in highly liquid, highly rated instruments which are uninsured. The Group may also have corporate deposit balances with financial institutions which exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit of $250,000. The Group has not experienced losses on these accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to these accounts.
| F-13 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Funds held at trading venues, payment processors, and clearing brokers
The Group holds cash at trading venues including both self-custodied wallets and custodial accounts at third-party institutions and performs a regular assessment of these venues as part of its risk management process.
[j] Income taxes
The Company and its subsidiaries are incorporated in the Cayman Islands, which does not impose corporate income or capital gains taxes. Accordingly, no provision for current or deferred income taxes has been recognized.
The Group applies the provisions of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, related to uncertain tax positions. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, the Group had no unrecognized tax benefits, and no interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions have been recognized.
[k] Basic and diluted Earnings or Loss per Share
The Group has adopted ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share which requires presentation of basic earnings per share.
Basic earnings or loss per share is calculated by dividing net income or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue ordinary shares were exercised or converted. In calculating diluted EPS, the Group adjusts both net income and the weighted-average number of shares outstanding to give effect to all potentially dilutive instruments, including simple agreements for future equity and stock-based awards, using the treasury stock method or if-converted method, as appropriate. The effects of securities that are anti-dilutive are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. Diluted loss per share does not adjust the loss attributable to common shareholders or the weighted average number of common shares outstanding when the effect is anti-dilutive.
[l] Share capital
The Group records proceeds from share issuances net of issuance costs. Shares issued for consideration other than cash are valued at the quoted price on the date the shares are issued.
[m] Equity based compensation
Stock options
The Group accounts for the stock options issued to consultants and employees of the Company at the fair value of the options granted in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Stock Compensation.
The fair value of the options is determined at the grant date using Black-Scholes option pricing model which requires assumptions including ordinary share price, expected price volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rate, and dividend yield. The equity compensation expense is charged to operations and is amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis, with the offset recorded to additional paid-in capital. At the end of each reporting period, the Group estimates the number of equity instruments expected to vest, and the revisions, if any, are recognized to profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate.
| F-14 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Restricted Shares
The Group accounts for restricted shares granted to directors, officers, consultants and employees of the Company at fair value in according with ASC Topic 718, Stock Compensation.
Restricted shares are classified as equity and measured at fair value determined at the grant date based on the fair value of the Company’s ordinary shares. Certain shares are issued at grant but subject to service-based vesting and repurchase rights at the original issuance price upon termination. The excess of grant-date fair value over the purchase price, if any, is recognized as stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
Unvested restricted shares are recorded as issued shares with a corresponding deferred stock-based compensation balance within shareholders’ equity, which is amortized over the vesting period. Stock-based compensation expense is included in operating expenses in the Statement of Operations.
[n] Fair value measurements
The Group analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC Topic 490, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging.
The Group’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable denominated in crypto assets, shares and warrants receivable, other receivables, investments, trade and other payables, and lease liabilities. The carrying amounts of these instruments approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. The fair value of long-term lease liabilities also approximates their carrying amount as there have been minimal changes in interest rates and in the Group’s own credit risk since inception.
The Group measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASC 820 establishes a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value:
| • | Level 1 - Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity can access at the measurement date. |
| • | Level 2 - Level 2 inputs are observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. |
| • | Level 3 - Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, reflecting the Group’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. |
The Group’s crypto assets, shares receivable, and current investments are classified within Level 1, and accounts receivable including embedded derivative features and warrants receivable, are classified within Level 2, as their valuation is based on quoted market prices for identical crypto assets in active markets.
The Group presents fair value measurements for its crypto assets, financial assets and liabilities in the notes to the consolidated financial statements and discloses any transfers between levels of the hierarchy, although no such transfers occurred during the periods presented.
[o] Related party transactions
All transactions with related parties are in the normal course of operations and are measured at the exchange amount.
| F-15 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
[p] Derivatives
The Group accounts for derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Certain accounts receivable denominated in crypto assets contain embedded derivative features arising from rights to receive fixed quantities of crypto assets. These instruments are accounted for in their entirety at fair value, rather than bifurcating the embedded derivative. Changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated Statement of Operations within “Net change in fair value of accounts receivable.”
The Group’s accounts receivable with embedded derivative features are classified within Level 2 of the fair-value hierarchy, as their valuation is based on quoted market prices for identical crypto assets in active markets.
[q] Subsequent Events
The Group evaluates subsequent events through the date the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued, and recognizes in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing the consolidated financial statements.
Subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that arose after the balance sheet date are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, but are not recognized in the financial statements.
[r] Commitments and Contingencies
The Group accounts for commitments and contingencies in accordance with ASC Topic 450, Contingencies. Loss contingencies, including legal claims, are accrued when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Commitments, such as agreements and non-cancellable leases, are disclosed when material.
[s] Segment Reporting
The Group determines its reportable segments in accordance with ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting. Management concluded the Group has a single operating and reportable segment under ASC 280 because the Chief Executive Officer, as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), evaluates performance and allocates resources based on consolidated financial information and does not regularly review discrete financial information by service line, geography, legal entity, or other component. While the Group may engage in multiple activities, they are managed as an integrated business with centralized decision-making, and there are no components for which operating results are regularly reviewed by the CODM with discrete financial information for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance in a manner that would constitute separate operating segments. Accordingly, the Group operates as one operating segment and, therefore, one reportable segment.
[t] Employee benefits
The Cayman Islands requires employers to contribute to a pension plan on behalf of employees, up to a statutory maximum amount per annum. As of December 31, 2025, the Group has not yet established its own pension plan but is subject to this statutory obligation.
Accordingly, the Group has recognized an accrued liability for amounts due under this requirement. At December 31, 2025, the Group accrued $105,011 (2024: $49,168) within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Group recorded pension expense of $55,843 (2024: $39,901), which represents the contribution obligation attributable to employee service during the year.
| F-16 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
The Group will fund the obligation in accordance with Cayman Islands’ statutory requirements in the subsequent fiscal year. No additional defined benefits or defined contribution plans have been established by the Group as of the reporting date.
[u] Warrants Issued by the Company
The Company accounts for warrants issued for its common stock in accordance with ASC Topic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. Warrants are evaluated at issuance to determine whether they should be classified as equity or as a liability.
Warrants are classified as equity instruments if they require settlement in a fixed number of shares of the Company’s common stock, are indexed to the Company’s own stock, and do not contain provisions that could require cash settlement or otherwise preclude equity classification.
If classified as equity, warrants are recorded at their relative fair value on the issuance date within additional paid-in capital and are not subsequently remeasured. Upon exercise, proceeds received are recorded as an increase to common stock and additional paid-in capital. Warrants that expire unexercised remain within additional paid-in capital.
| 4. | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
Crypto assets
On December 13, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-08, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets. ASU 2023-08 requires qualifying crypto assets to be measured at fair value with changes recognized in net income and presented separately from other intangible assets in the balance sheet, along with expanded disclosures. The Group early adopted ASU 2023-08 effective January 1, 2024. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements other than changes in presentation and disclosure.
Segment reporting
On November 27, 2023, the FASB issued
ASU No. 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 amends ASC Topic 280,
Segment Reporting, to expand segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided
to the Group’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), the amount and description of other segment items, the title
and position of the CODM, and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment
performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The amendments also extend disclosure requirements to entities with a single reportable
segment. The Group adopted ASU 2023-07 effective December 31, 2024 on a retrospective basis. The Group operates as a single reportable
segment. The Chief Executive Officer acting as CODM reviews financial information on a consolidated basis when evaluating performance
and allocating resources.
Substantially all of the Group’s operations and long-lived assets are located in the Cayman Islands. Accordingly, no further segment or geographic disclosures are presented.
| F-17 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Accounting pronouncements pending adoption
On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220). This standard amends ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income, to require expanded disclosure of certain natural expense categories (such as employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization) within the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Group is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
5. REVENUE
The Group recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Revenue is primarily derived from platform-enabled solutions, including token launch support, digital assets and capital markets infrastructure, and foundation administration. Revenue is recognized as performance obligations are satisfied in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received.
Revenue disaggregated by category for the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024 is presented in the table below:
| Schedule of disaggregated revenues | ||||||||

| Total revenue | 35,748,499 | 39,626,473 | ||||||
For the year ended December 31, 2025, one customer accounted for approximately $12.3 million (34%) of total revenue, a second customer accounted for approximately $4.2 million (12%) of total revenue, a third customer accounted for approximately $4.1 million (12%) of total revenue, and a fourth customer accounted for approximately $3.4 million (10%) of total revenue. No other individual customer accounted for greater than 10% of revenue.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, one customer accounted for approximately $12.1 million (32%) of total revenue, a second customer
accounted for approximately $7.5 million (20%) of total revenue, a third customer accounted for approximately $7.3 million (19%) of total
revenue, and a fourth customer accounted for approximately $4.2 million (11%) of total revenue. No other individual customer accounted
for greater than 10% of revenue.
6. COST OF SALES
Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased to $5,235,082 compared to $1,921,861 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, Open World Inc. entered into an amendment to an existing contract with a third-party. The amendment modified certain terms and conditions of the original agreement, including a reduction in the token supply to be delivered under the contract.
Open World Inc. evaluated the accounting implications of the contract amendment and determined that the modification should be accounted for prospectively. Accordingly, no retrospective adjustment to prior period financial statements was required.
As a result of this amendment, Open World Inc. recognized an incremental expense of $4,549,500 during the current year, which is included in cost of sales in the accompanying consolidated statement of operation

Credit Risk
Accounts receivable expose the Group to credit risk arising from counterparties’ inability to pay amounts due. The Group monitors the creditworthiness of its customers on an ongoing basis and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts to reflect expected credit losses. The allowance is based on historical loss experience, the aging of balances, and management’s assessment of current and expected future economic conditions.
As of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Group had accounts receivable positions with one and two counterparties, respectively, each accounting for more than 10 percent of total receivables.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The Group’s accounts receivable - crypto assets, including embedded derivative features, are classified within Level 2 of the fair-value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, as valuation is based on quoted market prices for identical crypto assets in active markets.
9. CRYPTO ASSETS
The Group accounts for crypto assets in accordance with ASU 2023-08, Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets. Crypto assets are classified as intangible assets and measured at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in net income.
Crypto assets held for operations are received as a form of payment and are converted to cash or used to fulfill expenses in the ordinary course of the Group’s business. Stablecoins such as USDT and USDC are redeemable on a one-to-one basis for U.S. dollars and are classified as crypto assets held for operations in the consolidated Balance Sheet. No individual token balance was greater than 5% of equity.
The following table summarizes the Group’s crypto assets as of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024 (in USD):

| Realized Gains and Losses | (4,374,903 | ) | 122,250 | |||||
When crypto assets are disposed of, realized gains and losses are calculated using the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method.
The fair value of the Group’s crypto assets is determined based on quoted prices in active markets (Level 1 inputs) as of the reporting date.
The Group holds crypto assets in self-custodied wallets and with third-party custodians. These balances are not bank deposits and are not insured by the FDIC or SIPC. Accordingly, the Group is subject to custodial, counterparty, and cybersecurity risks in the event of custodian insolvency, security breaches, or technological failures. When crypto assets are disposed of, realized gains and losses are calculated using the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method.
10. LEASES
The Group leases office space under a non-cancellable operating lease agreement. The lease commenced on April 2, 2024, and has a five-year term expiring on April 1, 2029. The lease provides for fixed annual base rent escalating annually and includes an option to extend for one additional five-year term at prevailing market rates. The renewal option is not reasonably certain to be exercised and, therefore, is not included in the measurement of the lease liability.
The lease requires payment of variable common area maintenance (“CAM”) charges based on the Group’s proportionate share of building operating costs (10.23%). These variable lease payments are expensed as incurred and are not included in the measurement of the right-of-use asset or lease liability.
Right-of-Use Assets and Lease Liabilities
The balances of operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as at December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024 are as follows:

Loan Receivable
On November 2, 2025, the Company entered into a Master Loan Agreement with Mosaic Capital Inc., an entity for which an officer of the Company serves as a director. The Company lent crypto assets to Mosaic under the agreement. The loan provides for a variable return based on changes in net asset value and may be repaid in cash or crypto assets. The loan is not secured by specific collateral.
The loan receivable is measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in gain or loss. Upon settlement, the difference between the carrying value of the receivable and the value of consideration received is recognized as a realized gain or loss. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized a loss of $4,037,614 from changes in fair value.
| F-22 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
| 12. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
The Group is subject to various claims and legal proceedings in the normal course of business. The Group evaluates these matters on an ongoing basis and establishes provisions when a loss is considered probable and reasonably estimable, in accordance with ASC Topic 450, Contingencies.

Each SAFE provides the holder the right to receive shares in the Group upon the occurrence of a future equity financing, liquidity event, or dissolution. The SAFEs are classified as equity instruments consistent with ASC Topic 505, Equity.
Key Terms include:
| · | Post-Money Valuation Cap: $20,000,000 |

| · | Liquidation Priority: Junior to debt, pari passu with other SAFEs and preference shares, and senior to ordinary shares |
There were no new issuances during the year ended December 31, 2025.
[e] Stock Options and Restricted Shares
The Group adopted an equity incentive plan (the “Plan”) in 2025, which permits the grant of stock options and other equity awards to directors, officers, employees and other eligible participants. Awards under the Plan are subject to vesting conditions as determined by the Board of Directors.
| F-24 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Stock Options
On December 10, 2025, the Company granted 13,920 stock options under the Plan. Each option entitles the holder to purchase one ordinary share at an exercise price of $168.67 per share and is subject to service-based vesting conditions.
The grant-date fair value of the options was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 3.84%, expected volatility of 75%, expected term of 6 six years, and dividend yield of 0%. The weighted-average grant-date fair value was $115.01 per option.
Restricted Shares
On December 10, 2025, the Company issued 25,823 ordinary shares pursuant to Restricted Share Subscription Agreements. The fair value of the restricted shares on the date of grant was $168.67 per share. The shares are subject to service-based vesting conditions for certain recipients, including one-year cliff provisions and total vesting periods of either three or four years, as applicable to the recipient. Certain shares were fully vested upon issuance. Compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
As of December 31, 2025, 21,704 restricted shares were vested and 4,119 remained unvested (2024 – none). As of December 31, 2025, total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted shares was approximately $567,500, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 0.6 years.
Restricted shares were granted in 2024. No material stock-based compensation expense was recognized. No stock options were granted in 2024.
Stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31 was as follows:
| Description | December 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | ||||||
| Stock options | 590,295 | - | ||||||
| Restricted shares | 3,787,807 | - | ||||||
| Total stock-based compensation | 4,378,102 | - | ||||||
[f] Dilutive common shares
As of December 31, 2025, the Group’s potentially dilutive securities are comprised of the simple agreements for future equity noted above. The potential effects thereof are disclosed in Note 13.
[g] Dividends
During year ended December 31, 2025, the Group declared dividends totaling $5,068,583 (December 31, 2024: $4,381,091). Dividends are recognized when declared by the Board of Directors and are presented as a reduction of retained earnings in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
[h] Warrants to issue common stock
As of December 31, 2025, the Company has entered into an agreement that may result in the issuance of up to 2,000,000 warrants in connection with a go-to-market and business development arrangement. However, such warrants had not been issued or outstanding as of December 31, 2025.
The warrants, if issued, are expected to have an exercise price based on a discount to the public offering price of the Company’s shares at the time of a public listing, and would become exercisable upon the occurrence of such public listing. The warrants are expected to have a contractual term to be determined at the time of issuance.
| F-25 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
The Company will evaluate any warrants issued under ASC Topic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, at the time of issuance to determine the appropriate classification as either equity or liability instruments. Based on the expected terms, the Company anticipates that such warrants would qualify for equity classification, as they are expected to require settlement solely in a fixed number of shares of the Company’s common stock and be indexed to the Company’s own stock without features requiring net cash settlement.
If issued, the warrants would be recorded at fair value within additional paid-in capital and not subsequently remeasured if classified as equity. Full exercise would result in the issuance of up to 2,000,000 shares, which may be dilutive.
14. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution from the assumed exercise or conversion of instruments into ordinary shares, if dilutive.
| Schedule of earnings per share | ||||||||
| (in USD, except share data) | 2025 | 2024 | ||||||
| Net (loss) income | (20,229,064 | ) | 25,046,569 | |||||
| Weighted-average shares outstanding — basic | 107,042 | 102,346 | ||||||
| Effect of dilutive instruments: | ||||||||
| – Simple agreements for future equity (SAFEs) | - | 12,337 | ||||||
| Weighted-average shares outstanding — diluted | 107,042 | 114,683 | ||||||
| Earnings per share: | ||||||||
| Basic | (189 | ) | 245 | |||||
| Diluted | (189 | ) | 218 | |||||
Diluted loss per share for 2025 excludes the effect of 14,009 SAFEs (2024 - 12,337) due to the net loss for the year as the effect would be anti-dilutive.
15. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Group’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, lease liabilities, and derivative instruments. Except as noted below, the carrying amounts of these instruments approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. The fair value of long-term lease liabilities also approximates their carrying amounts because of changes in interest rates and the Group’s credit risk since inception has been insignificant.
The Group measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Fair value measurements are classified in the following hierarchy:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Group’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use.

16. INCOME TAX
The Group is incorporated in the Cayman Islands, which does not impose corporate income and capital gains taxes. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
As of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits, and no interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions have been recognized in the consolidated financial statements.
The Group is not subject to income taxes in any jurisdiction and, therefore, no deferred tax assets or liabilities have been recognized.
The Group evaluates tax positions to determine whether they are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The Company’s evaluation as of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024 did not result in the recognition of any uncertain tax positions.
17. INVESTMENTS
Current Investments
On August 4, 2025, the Company entered into a Strategic Advisory and Implementation Agreement with Heritage Distilling Holding Company, Inc. (“IPST”), pursuant to which the Company was entitled to 2,000,000 shares of IPST common stock and warrants to purchase 8,000,000 shares at an exercise price of $0.01 per share as consideration under the arrangement. The shares were fully vested upon issuance. The warrants have a five-year term and vest subject to time-based and market performance conditions.
On August 11, 2025, the Company acquired 6,914,459 shares of IPST common stock for total consideration of $4,178,407. On November 5, 2025, IPST completed a one-for-twenty reverse stock split. All share amounts presented have been adjusted accordingly.
| F-27 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
The IPST common shares are measured at fair value using quoted market prices (Level 1), and the warrants are measured at fair value using an option pricing model with observable inputs (Level 2).
As of December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the Company’s IPST common shares and warrants was $1,124,927. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized a loss of $7,168,132 from changes in fair value.
The following table summarizes the Group’s IPST common shares and warrants as of December 31, 2025:
| Schedule of common shares and warrants | ||||||||||||||||
| Assets | Units | Cost Basis ($) | Change in fair value ($) | Ending Balance ($) | ||||||||||||
| Shares receivable | 100,000 | 1,080,000 | (924,000 | ) | 156,000 | |||||||||||
| Warrants receivable | 400,000 | 3,034,651 | (2,605,052 | ) | 429,599 | |||||||||||
| Investment | 345,722 | 4,178,407 | (3,639,080 | ) | 539,328 | |||||||||||
| Total | 845,722 | 8,293,058 | (7,168,132 | ) | 1,124,927 | |||||||||||
Non-current Investments
As of December 31, 2025, the Group also held $100,000 (December 31, 2024: $100,000) in Simple Agreements for Future Equity (SAFEs) issued by two private companies. These non-current investments are accounted for under ASC Topic 321, Investments—Equity Securities, using the measurement alternative, under which they are carried at cost, adjusted for (i) observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar instruments of the same issuer and (ii) impairments. No observable price changes or impairments were identified during the year.
Although these investments are not measured at fair value on a
recurring basis, the valuation of such instruments would rely on significant unobservable inputs and therefore would be considered Level
3 within the fair value hierarchy if a fair value measurement were required.
In connection with a SAFE entered into with an unrelated private entity, the Company also received a Token Warrant granting the right to acquire a specified number of tokens upon the occurrence of a future Token Generation Event (“TGE”).
The warrant represents a derivative instrument under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. As of December 31, 2025, management determined that the warrant’s fair value was $Nil due to the lack of an active token market and the uncertainty surrounding the occurrence and timing of any TGE. Accordingly, no fair value change was recognized in earnings for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The warrant is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
18. CRYPTO ASSETS AND ASSOCIATED RISKS
[a] Cybersecurity Risk
With the increased use of technologies to conduct business, the Group is susceptible to operational, crypto assets and related risks. In general, cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events. Cyber-attacks include but are not limited to third parties gaining unauthorized access to information technology systems (e.g., through “hacking” or malicious software coding) for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data, or causing operational disruption. Cyber-attacks may also be carried out in a manner that does not require gaining unauthorized access, such as causing denial-of-service attacks on websites (attempts to make network services unavailable to the normal intended users).
Cyber incidents affecting the Group and its counterparties have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in interference with the Group’s day-to-day operations. Similar adverse consequences could result from cyber incidents affecting issuers of crypto assets. While the Group has established risk management systems to prevent cyber incidents and business continuity plans in the event of such cyber incidents occurring, there are inherent limitations in such systems and plans including the possibility that certain risks may have not been identified in advance.
| F-28 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
[b] Political, legal, and/or regulatory risk
The legal status of crypto assets may be uncertain. It is unclear whether they constitute property, assets, or rights of any kind. Crypto assets are not backed by governments, and accounts and balances are not subject to any statutory or government protections. Regulation of crypto assets and crypto asset exchanges are currently undeveloped and is likely to rapidly evolve. It is possible that some countries are already considering or may in the future put in place laws, regulations or other actions which may severely impact the Group’s operations. This is particularly the case as crypto assets have grown in popularity and market size. New or changing laws and regulations may have an impact on the Group’s future operations.
[c] Development of crypto assets and associated risks
The growth of the crypto asset industry in general, as well as crypto asset networks is subject to a high degree of uncertainty. The factors affecting such growth include (i) worldwide growth in the adoption and use of crypto asset technologies, (ii) government and quasi-government regulation of crypto assets and their use or restrictions on or regulation of access to and operation of crypto Asset networks or similar systems, (iii) the maintenance and development of the open-source software protocol(s) of the crypto asset networks, (iv) changes in consumer demographics and public tastes and preferences, (v) the availability and popularity of other forms or methods of buying and selling goods and services or trading assets including new means of using fiat currencies or existing networks, (vi) general economic conditions and the regulatory environment relating to crypto currencies, or (vii) a decline in the popularity or acceptance of the crypto asset networks. The slowing or stopping of the development or acceptance of the crypto asset networks could have an impact on the Group’s future operations.
[d] Counterparty and custodian wallet risk
Having crypto assets on deposit or with any third party in a custodial relationship has attendant risks. These risks include potential for security breaches, risk of contractual breach, and risk of loss. The Group may have a high concentration of its crypto assets in one location or with one third party custody provider, which may be prone to losses arising out of hacking, loss of passwords, compromised access credentials, malware, comprised private keys, unauthorized access to private key, or cyber-attacks. The Group maintains custody of the unique private keys for all of its customer crypto assets. Such unique private keys control the movement and access of the crypto assets. The Group is responsible for taking such steps as it determines to be required to maintain access to these keys, and prevent exposure from hacking, malware, and general security threats. The theft, loss or destruction of a private key is irreversible and could result in substantial or total loss of crypto assets. The Group has controls in place to mitigate against the risk of unauthorized access to or loss of customer assets within the Group’s self-custodied wallets held on behalf of customers.
[e] Risk of loss of private key(s)
Crypto assets are controllable only by the possessor of unique private keys relating to the addresses in which the crypto assets are held. The theft, loss or destruction of a private key required to access a crypto asset is irreversible, and such private keys would not be capable of being restored by the Group. Any loss of private keys relating to crypto wallets used to store the Group's crypto assets (including customer assets) could result in the loss of these crypto assets and customers and other stakeholders could incur substantial, or even total loss.
The Group is responsible for taking such steps as it determines, in its sole judgment, to be required to maintain access to these private keys, and prevent their exposure from hacking, malware and general security threats. To the extent that the security system is penetrated, any loss of crypto assets may adversely affect a stakeholder’s interest in the Group, including customers.

Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
[f] Risks relating to irrevocable crypto asset transactions
The blockchain creates a permanent, public record of crypto asset transactions but it also creates an irrevocable one. Transactions that have been verified, and thus recorded within a block on the blockchain, generally cannot be undone. Even if the transaction turns out to have been in error, or due to theft of a user's crypto assets, the transaction is not reversible. Further, at this time, there is no governmental, regulatory, investigative, or prosecutorial authority or mechanism through which to bring an action or complaint regarding missing or stolen Crypto assets. Consequently, the Group may be unable to replace missing crypto assets or seek reimbursement for any erroneous transfer or theft of crypto assets.
[g] Dependence on key personnel
The performance of the Group will be substantially dependent on the expertise of the senior management, its principals, and employees. In particular, the loss for any reason of the key individuals who will be primarily responsible for managing the Group may have a materially adverse effect on the performance of the Group.
[h] Risks relating to crypto asset price volatility
A key risk in trading crypto assets is the rapid fluctuation of their market price. Crypto assets have demonstrated significant volatility.
The price of crypto assets may be affected by a wide variety of complex and difficult to predict factors such as crypto asset supply and demand; rewards and transaction fees for the recording of transactions on the blockchain; difficulties with converting crypto asset to fiat currencies; availability and access to crypto asset service providers (such as payment processors), exchanges, miners or other crypto asset users and market participants; perceived or actual crypto asset network or crypto asset vulnerability; inflation levels; fiscal policy; interest rates; and political, regulatory natural and economic events.
[i] Illiquidity
The crypto asset marketplace may be illiquid, insufficiently liquid or highly volatile from time to time, and may shift quickly.
19. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Proposed Merger Transaction
On February 11, 2026, the Company entered into a definitive merger agreement with VerifyMe, Inc. (“VerifyMe”), a publicly traded company listed on Nasdaq, pursuant to which VerifyMe will acquire OpenWorld through a merger transaction. Upon closing, OpenWorld’s shareholders are expected to own approximately 90% of the combined company and VerifyMe’s legacy stockholders approximately 10%, on a fully diluted basis. The board of the combined company is expected to consist of seven directors, with six appointed by OpenWorld and one appointed by VerifyMe.
The proposed transaction is expected to establish a public market platform for OpenWorld’s digital asset and real-world asset tokenization strategy, enabling broader access to capital markets and enhancing the Company’s ability to scale its integrated platform, asset management offerings. Management anticipates that the combined company will be positioned to drive incremental revenue opportunities through the alignment of OpenWorld’s platform capabilities with its expanding ecosystem of strategic partnerships and initiatives.
The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including VerifyMe maintaining a minimum cash balance of $1,000,000 at closing. A termination fee of $400,000 is payable under certain circumstances. The transaction had not closed as of the date these financial statements were issued.

Loans Payable
On January 5, 2026, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Webslinger Holdings Inc., a significant shareholder of the Company, pursuant to which the lender agreed to provide financing of up to $750,000. The loan bears interest at a rate of 5% per annum. The original maturity date of April 5, 2026 was subsequently extended by approximately 60 days. Funds were received on January 16, 2026. The Company may prepay the loan, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty.
Management believes the arrangement aligns with the Company’s broader capital strategy and supports continued execution of its platform development and strategic partnerships. The Company evaluated this transaction as a non-recognized subsequent event in accordance with ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events, and accordingly, no amounts related to this loan have been recorded in the accompanying financial statements.
Strategic Partnership
On January 20, 2026, the Company entered into a strategic partnership agreement with mCloud Technologies Saudi Arabia, an entity affiliated with the Company’s President, to support the development of a regional platform focused on real-world asset tokenization initiatives in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
The arrangement establishes a framework for collaboration on technology development, marketing, and commercial activities and is expected to support the Company’s expansion into the Middle East market. In connection with the partnership, the Company may provide financing through a convertible promissory note and participate in revenue sharing arrangements, subject to the execution of definitive agreements and satisfaction of certain conditions.
Management believes the partnership aligns with the Company’s broader platform strategy and may contribute to future revenue opportunities through integration with its digital asset and real-world asset tokenization initiatives. The Company evaluated this arrangement as a non-recognized subsequent event in accordance with ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events, and accordingly, no amounts have been recorded in the accompanying financial statements.
SAFE Financing
In March 2026, the Company commenced its strategic fundraising initiatives through the issuance of Simple Agreements for Future Equity (“SAFEs”) with certain investors and has received gross proceeds of approximately $350,000. Management believes these strategic investors will be additive not only in capital to support the continued development of the Company’s platform and strategic partnerships and positions the Company to pursue additional growth opportunities.
The SAFEs will convert into shares of the Company’s preferred stock upon the occurrence of a qualified equity financing, subject to a valuation cap of $150,000,000. The SAFEs do not bear interest and have no maturity date.
The Company evaluated this transaction as a non-recognized subsequent event in accordance with ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events, and has not recorded any amounts related to the SAFE financing in the accompanying financial statements.
Consulting Agreement
On March 25, 2026, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with a third party pursuant to which the consultant will provide advisory services to the Company. The agreement includes monthly cash compensation and potential additional compensation, including equity-based incentives.

Open World Ltd. | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
In connection with the agreement, the Company may grant up to 1,000,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock (or its publicly traded parent entity). However, such warrants had not been issued or outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and remain contingent upon the successful completion of a proposed reverse takeover transaction.
The Company will evaluate any warrants issued under ASC Topic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, at the time of issuance to determine the appropriate classification as either equity or liability instruments. If issued and classified as equity, the warrants would be recorded at fair value within additional paid-in capital and would not be subsequently remeasured.
The Company has evaluated this event in accordance with ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events, and determined that it represents a non-recognized subsequent event as it relates to conditions arising after December 31, 2025. Accordingly, no amounts have been recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

OpenWorld’s business is structured around three complementary verticals: Digital Assets & Capital Markets (“DACM”), OpenWorld’s foundational origination engine; Advisory & Onboarding (“OpenWorld Labs”), the innovation incubator that develops new products and provides governance infrastructure for decentralized protocols; and OpenWorld Enterprise™ (“OWE”), a co-principal and co-architect platform that is being developed to identify, structure, deploy, and manage enterprise-grade blockchain initiatives across real-world assets (“RWAs”), sovereign infrastructures, and financial services. These three verticals foster a compounding system: DACM generates institutional credibility and relationships that may unlock OWE mandates; OpenWorld Labs incubates products that are capable of graduating into the OWE vertical when commercially viable; and OWE’s platform is being designed to be replicated across jurisdictions at a marginal incremental cost and to generate high-margin recurring platform fees over time. These verticals are intended to represent a progression from project-based revenue generation to software-enabled platform economics that continue to accrue over time, with DACM driving repeatable activities, OpenWorld Labs supporting early-stage product development, and OWE designed to scale into recurring platform-based revenue over time. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company commenced generating revenue from its RWA business line through OpenWorld Enterprise™.
During the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company identified certain classification matters within the previously issued consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025. Specifically, certain amounts within the consolidated balance sheets and statements of cash flows have been revised to conform to the current period presentation, as described below. A separate change in the presentation of net fair value adjustments is described in Note 16.
As of December 31, 2025, $667,085 of accounts receivable previously classified as current was reclassified to non-current accounts receivable. As a result, current accounts receivable decreased from $1,266,223 to $599,138 and non-current accounts receivable increased from $nil to $667,085. This reclassification had no impact on total accounts receivable or total assets.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, cash payments of $10,322,697 for purchases of crypto assets and cash proceeds of $6,530,524 from sales of crypto assets were reclassified from operating activities to investing activities to conform to the current-period presentation. As a result, net cash provided by operating activities increased by $3,792,173 and net cash used in investing activities increased by the same amount. This reclassification had no impact on the net increase in cash for the period. The current statement presents those crypto purchase and sale amounts within investing activities.
The Company evaluated these classification matters and determined that they were not material, individually or in the aggregate, to the previously issued financial statements. Accordingly, the prior period presentation has been revised to better reflect the appropriate classification of such amounts. These revisions had no impact on net loss, total assets, total liabilities, stockholders’ equity, or net increase (decrease) in cash for any period presented.

| 2. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
| [a] | Accounting standards |
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2025. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year.
| [b] | Critical accounting estimates and judgments |
The preparation of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. Significant estimates, assumptions and judgments include judgment in determining performance obligations; fair value measurement of crypto assets and receivables denominated in crypto assets; the assessment of collectability of accounts receivable; the valuation and impairment assessment of strategic investments; accounting for business combinations; and the assessment of contingent liabilities and loss contingencies. The Company is also exposed to risks inherent in crypto assets, including price volatility, liquidity, and counterparty risks.
Actual results and outcomes could differ materially from those estimates.
| 3. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and follow the same accounting policies and methods of application as disclosed in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, except as otherwise disclosed herein.
| [a] | Principles of consolidation |
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
| [b] | Revenue recognition |
The Company determines revenue recognition from contracts with customers through the following steps:
| · | identification of the contract, or contracts, with the customer; |
| · | identification of the performance obligations in the contract; |
| · | determination of the transaction price; |
| · | allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and |
| · | recognition of the revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation. |
Revenue is recognized when performance obligations are satisfied, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for its activities.
| 9 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
Advisory and Onboarding
Advisory and Onboarding is the innovation incubator that develops new products and provides governance infrastructure for decentralized protocols. Revenue is recognized ratably over time as performance obligations are satisfied. Compensation is typically a fixed monthly fee, payable in U.S. dollars or stablecoins.
Digital Assets and Capital Markets Infrastructure
Digital Assets & Capital Markets is the foundational revenue engine of the Company, encompassing the Company’s fully integrated, technology-enabled strategic partnership that supports token generation events, token structuring, and integration capabilities for public market companies. Revenue is recognized at the vesting date of tokens, which aligns with the satisfaction of performance obligations under each of the underlying arrangements. Performance obligations comprise a combination of network advisory, infrastructure support, and technical enablement activities, including strategic advisory on protocol design and launch, coordination with legal and governance stakeholders, and technical advisory services such as smart contract development, auditing support, and web3 product integration. These services are typically completed prior to or in connection with the vesting date, at which point the associated consideration becomes payable and revenue is recognized. Vesting commences no earlier than the Token Generation Event, when an observable market price exists and rights to tokens are legally enforceable. The Company measures such revenue at the fair value of tokens on the vesting date, using end-of-day (23:59:59 UTC) pricing.
Crypto assets received as non-cash consideration are generally converted into cash within a short period of time (typically within 60 days). Cash flows resulting from the conversion of such crypto assets are classified as investing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Real World Asset Infrastructure and Platform Services
Real World Asset ("RWA") Infrastructure and Platform Services represents the Company's technology-enabled deployment and implementation services for institutional tokenized real-world asset transactions. These services are provided through the Company's OpenWorld Enterprise® platform and include the design, structuring, deployment, implementation and launch of tokenized financing and digital asset infrastructure solutions for institutional clients. Contracts generally include a single integrated performance obligation consisting of highly interrelated activities that together produce one combined output for the customer. Such activities may include transaction origination, commercial and enterprise architecture design, transaction structuring, coordination with legal, accounting and other professional advisors, technology deployment, workflow configuration, implementation management, commercial launch readiness and coordination of the activities necessary to achieve financial close.
Revenue is recognized when control of the combined implementation service transfers to the customer. This generally occurs upon completion of the deployment and implementation engagement, which is typically evidenced by Financial Close (the contractual milestone at which the related financing transaction closes pursuant to the applicable definitive transaction documents) or another contractually specified milestone at which:
| · | the Company's implementation services have been substantially completed; |
| · | the customer has obtained substantially all of the benefit of the deployment and implementation services; |
| · | the Company's right to consideration becomes unconditional; and |
| · | the deployment and implementation fee becomes earned and payable under the contract. |
Fees relating to ongoing platform support, administration, software subscriptions or other post-closing operational services are separate performance obligations and are recognized over the period in which those services are provided.

| [c] | Cost of sales |
Cost of sales primarily consists of direct costs incurred to deliver the Company’s advisory and onboarding, digital assets and capital markets, and real world asset infrastructure and platform service capabilities. These costs are recognized in the period in which the related performance obligations are satisfied and revenue is recognized. Cost of sales primarily includes:
Professional and Consulting Fees: Fees paid to third-party providers, contractors, external specialists, and other consultants who support the Company’s revenue-generating activities.
Technology and Infrastructure Costs: Direct expenses related to hosting, cloud computing, blockchain network usage, cybersecurity support, and other infrastructure required to fulfill performance obligations under customer contracts.
Other Direct Costs: Out-of-pocket expenses incurred in fulfilling customer contracts, including reimbursed client costs, transaction-specific expenditures, data services, travel, and similar costs directly related to advisory and onboarding, digital assets or capital markets activities.
Costs not directly attributable to revenue-generating activities are recorded within Operating Expenses, including general and administrative costs, consulting and management fees, bad debt provisions, insurance, corporate legal and professional fees, travel not tied to customer contracts, and operating lease expenses. The Company applies the practical expedient under ASC 606-10-50-14 and does not disclose remaining performance obligations for contracts with original expected durations of one year or less.
| [d] | Consulting and management fees |
Consulting and management fees consist primarily of compensation-related costs for personnel who support the Company’s operations, including (i) wages and salaries for employees and (ii) fees and costs paid to independent contractors and consultants (collectively, “team wages”). These amounts may also include employer payroll taxes and other personnel-related costs, as applicable. Consulting and management fees are recognized as expense as the related activities are performed (generally on a straight-line basis over the service period when billed at fixed rates) and are classified within operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Amounts owed but not yet paid at the reporting date are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and prepayments for services not yet received are recorded in prepaid expenses and expensed as incurred.
| [e] | Accounts receivable and derivatives |
Accounts receivable consists of receivables from revenues from contracts with customers and other receivables, net of allowances for expected credit losses. Accounts receivable denominated in crypto assets are contractual rights to receive cash or crypto assets either on demand or on fixed or determinable dates and are recognized as assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Certain crypto-denominated receivables are subject to contractual lock-up restrictions, and the related fair value measurements may include discounts for lack of marketability.
Accounts receivable denominated in crypto assets contain embedded derivative features arising from rights to receive fixed quantities of crypto assets under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and are accounted for at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations within “Net change in fair value of accounts receivable.”
These accounts receivable with embedded derivative features are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820. The instruments are valued using observable market prices for the underlying crypto assets, adjusted for contractual lock-up restrictions and related lack-of-marketability discounts.
| 11 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
The Company evaluates collectability in accordance with ASC 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses and records an allowance for expected credit losses when necessary.
| [f] | Crypto assets |
The Company accounts for cryptocurrencies, tokens, and stablecoins (collectively, “crypto assets”) in accordance with ASC 350-60, Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets. Crypto assets are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income within “Change in fair value, net.”
Crypto assets are initially recognized at fair value on the date of acquisition or receipt, based on observable quoted market prices. For crypto assets with observable market prices, fair value is determined using Level 1 inputs under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. They are classified as current or non-current assets depending on management’s intent regarding use, including treasury holdings and operational purposes. Treasury holdings are managed with regard to liquidity requirements, asset type concentration, and operational needs. The Company reviews the composition and classification of treasury holdings at each reporting date to determine whether any reclassification between current and non-current is warranted. As the Company’s crypto assets are held for and used in the ordinary course of business, they are classified as current assets.
Gains and losses on crypto asset sales are recognized on a first-in-first-out (“FIFO”) basis.
The Company holds its crypto assets through a combination of institutional custodial accounts, multisignature wallet arrangements, and blockchain-based smart contracts used for token vesting and related operational purposes. A substantial portion of the Company’s crypto assets are held through Coinbase Prime with certain assets maintained in multisignature wallets or automated vesting contracts based on operational, commercial, and security requirements. The allocation among custodial solutions is evaluated on a case-by-case basis depending on the type of crypto asset held, liquidity and trading requirements, counterparty considerations, and the operational and security profile of the applicable custody solution.
| [g] | Investments |
The Company’s strategic investments primarily include equity investments in public and privately held companies where the Company (1) holds less than 20% ownership in the entity, and (2) does not exercise significant influence. Investments with readily determinable fair values are measured at fair value. Investments without readily determinable fair values are accounted for under the alternative measurement in accordance with ASC 321 and are measured at cost, less impairment, adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. Adjustments related to observable price changes and impairment are recorded in Other (income) expenses, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
| [h] | Equity based compensation |
Stock options
The Company accounts for the stock options issued to consultants and employees of the Company at the fair value of the options granted in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation.
The fair value of the options is determined at the grant date using Black-Scholes option pricing model which requires assumptions including ordinary share price, expected price volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rate, and dividend yield. The equity compensation expense is charged to operations and is amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis, with the offset recorded to additional paid-in capital.
| 12 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
Restricted Shares
The Company accounts for restricted shares granted to directors, officers, consultants and employees of the Company at fair value in accordance with ASC 718, Stock compensation. Restricted shares are classified as equity and measured at fair value determined at the grant date based on the fair value of the Company’s ordinary shares.
Certain restricted shares are subject to service-based vesting and repurchase rights at the original issuance price upon termination. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
Compensation cost for restricted shares subject to service-based vesting is recognized over the requisite service period, with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital.
| [i] | Fair value measurements |
The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASC 820 establishes a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value:
| • | Level 1 - Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity can access at the measurement date. |
| • | Level 2 - Level 2 inputs are observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. |
| • | Level 3 - Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, reflecting the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. |
The Company’s crypto assets and current investments are classified within Level 1, and accounts receivable including embedded derivative features and warrants receivable, are classified within Level 2 under ASC 820. These instruments are valued using observable market prices for the underlying crypto assets, adjusted for contractual lock-up restrictions and related lack-of-marketability discounts.
The Company discloses any transfers between levels of the hierarchy when applicable. No transfers occurred during the periods presented.
| [j] | Related party transactions |
Related-party transactions are recognized based on the terms of the underlying arrangements. Transactions with related parties may not have been conducted on terms equivalent to those prevailing in arm's-length transactions.
| 4. | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |

The amendments clarify and improve interim financial reporting requirements, including the disclosure requirements applicable to interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
| 5. | REVENUE |
Revenue disaggregated by category for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 is presented in the table below:
| Three months ended June 30, | Six months ended June 30, | |||||||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 | |||||||||||||
| Digital assets and capital markets infrastructure | $ | 772,289 | $ | 241,029 | $ | 3,861,116 | $ | 7,830,409 | ||||||||
| Real World Asset infrastructure and platform services | 2,700,000 | - | 2,700,000 | - | ||||||||||||
| Advisory and onboarding | 632,580 | 950,528 | 1,204,267 | 2,090,760 | ||||||||||||
| Total revenue | $ | 4,104,869 | $ | 1,191,557 | $ | 7,765,383 | $ | 9,921,169 | ||||||||
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, one customer accounted for approximately $2.70 million (66%) of total revenue in the form of a single RWA revenue contract (the “Contract”) with a customer with aggregate consideration of approximately $9.00 million. The consideration is fixed and allocated among the Contract’s performance obligations in accordance with their relative standalone selling prices, where applicable.
Revenue is recognized as performance obligations are satisfied and control of the related services is transferred to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue over time using an input method based on costs incurred relative to total estimated costs, which management believes faithfully depicts the transfer of services under the Contract.
This method requires management to assess progress toward completion and estimate the costs necessary to satisfy the remaining performance obligations. Changes in such estimates may affect the timing and amount of revenue recognized.
The Contract contains fixed consideration and does not contain material variable consideration, non-cash consideration, or significant financing components. Accordingly, management exercises limited judgment in determining the transaction price.
As of June 30, 2026, approximately $6.30 million of transaction price remained unallocated due to the stage of completion of the performance obligations at that date. The Company expects to recognize this amount as revenue as the remaining services are performed over the contractual service period. Because the Contract has an original expected duration greater than one year, the practical expedient for contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less does not apply. No other individual customer accounted for greater than 10% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026.
| 14 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, one customer accounted for approximately $0.26 million (27%) of total revenue, and a second customer accounted for approximately $0.11 million (11%) of total revenue. No other individual customer accounted for greater than 10% of revenue.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, one customer accounted for approximately $2.70 million (35%) of total revenue, a second customer accounted for approximately $1.12 million (14%) of total revenue, and a third customer accounted for approximately $1.11 million (14%) of total revenue. No other individual customer accounted for greater than 10% of revenue.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, one customer accounted for approximately $2.05 million (22%) of total revenue, a second customer accounted for approximately $1.68 million (18%) of total revenue, a third customer accounted for approximately $1.33 million (14%) of total revenue, and a fourth customer accounted for approximately $1.16 million (12%) of total revenue. No other individual customer accounted for greater than 10% of revenue.
| 6. | CONTRACT ASSETS |
Contract assets represent revenue recognized prior to the Company’s right to invoice customers and relate to RWA infrastructure and platform services. Contract liabilities consist primarily of advance billings and payments received from customers for services not yet transferred.
The following table presents contract balances as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:
| Contract assets | Contract liabilities | |||||||
| Beginning balance, December 31, 2025 | $ | - | $ | 125,590 | ||||

Revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2026 that was included in the beginning contract liability balance was approximately $125,590.
| 7. | COST OF SALES |
Cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased to $238,278 compared to $140,476 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Cost of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2026, increased to $342,673 compared to $324,578 for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
| 8. | CASH |
Cash balance includes certain amounts that are restricted as to use. Restricted cash consists of funds held for the Company’s REAP card, which are designated for specific related expenditures charged to the card and are not available for general operating purposes.
The following table presents the Company’s cash as of June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025.

As of June 30, 2026, the REAP card balance was reclassified from restricted cash to digital assets as the underlying balance consisted of stablecoins. Accordingly, restricted cash was $nil as of June 30, 2026.
| 9. | ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE |
Accounts receivable consists primarily of amounts due from customers comprising crypto assets and other receivables. Accounts receivable – crypto assets (see below) include embedded derivative features arising from the right to receive a fixed quantity of crypto assets. These instruments are accounted for in their entirety at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations within “Change in fair value, net.” The contractual amounts of accounts receivable denominated in crypto assets approximate their fair value as of each reporting date.
The following table presents the Company’s accounts receivable as of June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025.
| June 30, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | |||||||

In 2025, Open World Inc. entered into an amendment to an existing contract with a third party. The amendment modified certain terms and conditions of the original agreement, including a reduction in the token supply to be delivered under the contract, resulting in a decrease in accounts receivable of $4,549,500.
Credit Risk
Accounts receivable expose the Company to credit risk arising from counterparties’ inability to satisfy amounts due. The Company monitors the creditworthiness of its customers on an ongoing basis and records allowances for expected credit losses based on historical loss experience, the aging of balances, and management’s assessment of current and expected future economic conditions.
For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, one and two customers accounted for approximately 66% and 38% of total revenue, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, three and four customers accounted for approximately 63% and 66% of total revenue, respectively.
| 16 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, four customers and one customer, respectively, each represented more than 10% of the Company’s total accounts receivable balance.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The Company’s accounts receivable - crypto assets, including embedded derivative features, are classified within Level 2 of the fair-value hierarchy under ASC 820. The instruments are valued using observable market prices for the underlying crypto assets, adjusted for contractual lock-up restrictions and related lack-of-marketability discounts.
| 10. | CRYPTO ASSETS |
The Company accounts for crypto assets in accordance with ASU 2023-08, Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets. Crypto assets are classified as intangible assets and measured at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in net income.
Crypto assets held for operations are received as a form of payment and are converted to cash or used in the ordinary course of business. Stablecoins, such as USDT, are redeemable on a one-to-one basis for U.S. dollars and are classified as crypto assets held for operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The following table summarizes the Company’s crypto assets as of June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025 (in USD):

Certain ordinary shares issued were subject to Restricted Stock Purchase Agreements with vesting schedules, transfer restrictions, and repurchase rights in favor of the Company.

| [d] | Simple agreements for future equity |
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company issued Simple Agreements for Future Equity (“SAFEs”) to various investors for an aggregate amount of $2,000,000. The SAFEs provide the holder the right to receive shares in the Company upon the occurrence of future equity financing, liquidity event, or dissolution. The Company evaluated the SAFEs under ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, including embedded derivative considerations under ASC 815-15, and concluded the SAFEs qualify for equity classification. Accordingly, the SAFEs are classified within stockholders’ equity in accordance with ASC 505.
Key terms include:
| ● | Post-Money Valuation Cap: $20,000,000; |
| ● | Conversion: Upon an equity financing, each SAFE converts into the greater of (i) preferred shares based on the financing price, or (ii) SAFE preferred shares based on the SAFE price; |
| ● | Liquidity/Dissolution: In such events, holders receive the greater of (i) their purchase amount, or (ii) the amount payable had the SAFE converted into ordinary shares at the Liquidity Price; |
| ● | Liquidation Priority: Junior to debt, pari passu with other SAFEs and preference shares, and senior to ordinary shares. |
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued additional SAFEs for proceeds of $1,550,000. The additional SAFEs contain terms substantially consistent with the Company’s existing SAFEs, including conversion, liquidity or dissolution, and liquidation priority provisions, and includes a post-money valuation cap of $150,000,000.
During June 2026, the Company entered into amendment agreements with the holders of its outstanding SAFEs in connection with its planned equity financing. The amendments provide for the conversion of the outstanding SAFEs into ordinary shares upon the initial closing of the financing. The amendments also revised the valuation cap applicable to the $150,000,000 valuation cap SAFE tranche to $135,000,000. The $20,000,000 valuation cap SAFE tranche was otherwise unchanged.
The amendments are contingent upon the closing of the planned financing. Until such time, the SAFEs remain outstanding under their existing terms. If the financing does not occur, the amendments will not become effective.

| [e] | Stock Options and Restricted Shares |
The Company adopted an equity incentive plan (the “Plan”) in 2025, which permits the grant of stock options and other equity awards to directors, officers, employees and other eligible participants. Awards under the Plan are subject to vesting conditions determined by the Board of Directors.
Stock Options
On December 10, 2025, the Company granted 13,920 stock options under the Plan. Each option entitles the holder to purchase one ordinary share at an exercise price of $168.67 per share and is subject to service-based vesting conditions.
The grant-date fair value of the options was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 3.84%, expected volatility of 75%, expected term of six years, and dividend yield of 0%. The weighted-average grant-date fair value was $115.01 per option.
Restricted Shares
On December 10, 2025, the Company issued 25,823 ordinary shares pursuant to Restricted Share Subscription Agreements. The fair value of the restricted shares on the grant-date was $168.67 per share. The shares are subject to service-based vesting conditions for certain recipients, including one-year cliff provisions and vesting periods of either three or four years, as applicable. Certain shares were fully vested upon issuance. Compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
As of June 30, 2026, 24,185 restricted shares were vested and 1,638 remained unvested. As of June 30, 2026, total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted shares was approximately $218,057, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 0.5 years.
Stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was as follows:

| [f] | Dilutive common shares |
As of June 30, 2026, the Company’s potentially dilutive securities are comprised of the SAFEs noted above. The potential effects thereof are disclosed in Note 15.
| [g] | Dividends |
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company declared no dividends. Dividends are recognized when declared by the Board of Directors and are presented as a reduction of retained earnings in the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
| [h] | Warrants to issue ordinary shares |
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had entered into an agreements that may result in the issuance of up to 3,000,000 warrants in connection with a go-to-market and business development arrangement. However, such warrants had not been issued or outstanding as of June 30, 2026.
| 23 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
The warrants, if issued, are expected to have an exercise price determined based on a discount to the public offering price of the Company’s shares at the time of a public listing and would become exercisable upon the occurrence of such public listing. The warrants are expected to have a contractual term to be determined at the time of issuance. The Company will evaluate any warrants issued under ASC 815-40 at the time of issuance to determine the appropriate classification as either equity or liability instruments. Based on the expected terms, the Company anticipates that such warrants would qualify for equity classification, as they are expected to require settlement solely in a fixed number of shares of the Company’s ordinary shares and be indexed to the Company’s own stock without features requiring net cash settlement.
If issued, the warrants would be recorded at fair value within additional paid-in capital and would not be subsequently remeasured if
classified as equity. Full exercise would result in the issuance of up to 3,000,000 shares, which may be dilutive.
| 15. | EARNINGS PER SHARE |
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution from the assumed exercise or conversion of instruments into ordinary shares, if dilutive.

| 16. | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS |
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, investments, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable, lease liabilities, and derivative instruments. Except as noted below, the carrying amounts of these instruments approximate their fair values due to their short maturity. The fair value of long-term lease liabilities also approximates their carrying amounts because of changes in interest rates and the Company’s credit risk since inception has been insignificant.
In addition to financial instruments, the Company holds crypto assets that are measured at fair value in accordance with ASC 350-60, Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets. Crypto assets are presented separately from financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy tables below.
The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, which establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
| 24 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use.
Fair Value Hierarchy

In August 2025, the Company acquired 17,286 shares of IPST common stock for total consideration of $4,178,407. Share amounts presented herein have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect IPST’s one-for-twenty reverse stock splits completed on November 5, 2025 and April 23, 2026.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company received an additional 5,000 shares of IPST common stock with a carrying value of $169,000 in settlement of a share receivable. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, an additional 3,908 and 10,857 IPST warrants, respectively, vested.
The IPST common shares are measured at fair value using quoted market prices (Level 1), and the warrants are measured at fair value using an option pricing model with observable inputs (Level 2).

Open World Ltd. | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
As of June 30, 2026, the carrying value of the Company’s IPST common shares and warrants was $92,761 (December 31, 2025: $1,124,927). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized losses of $510,834 and $2,147,848, respectively, from changes in fair value (three and six months ended June 30, 2025: $nil and $nil, respectively).
The following table summarizes the Company’s IPST common shares and warrants as of June 30, 2026:
| Assets | IPST
Shares receivable | IPST Warrants receivable | Investment

As of June 30, 2026, the carrying value of the Company's IPST common shares and IPST warrants was $92,761. The Company also held other warrants receivable with a carrying value of $500, resulting in total warrants receivable of $40,888 and a total carrying value of current investments and warrants receivable of $93,261.
Non-current Investments
As of June 30, 2026, the Company held non-current investments with a carrying value of $100,348 (December 31, 2025: $100,348), including $100,000 (December 31, 2025: $100,000) in Simple Agreements for Future Equity (SAFEs) issued by two private companies. These non-current investments are accounted for under ASC 321, Investments—Equity Securities, using the measurement alternative, under which they are carried at cost, adjusted for (i) observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar instruments of the same issuer and (ii) impairments. No observable price changes or impairments were identified during the period.
Although these investments are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the valuation of such instruments would rely on significant unobservable inputs and therefore would be considered Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy if a fair value measurement were required.
In connection with a SAFE entered into with an unrelated private entity, the Company also received a Token Warrant granting the right to acquire a specified number of tokens upon the occurrence of a future Token Generation Event (“TGE”).
The warrant represents a derivative instrument under ASC 815. As of June 30, 2026, management determined that the warrant’s fair value was $nil due to the lack of an active token market and the uncertainty surrounding the occurrence and timing of any TGE. Accordingly, no fair value change was recognized in earnings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, or during the corresponding periods in 2025. The warrant is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
| 19. | CRYPTO ASSETS AND ASSOCIATED RISKS |
There have been no material changes to the risks associated with the Company’s crypto assets from those disclosed in the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.
| 27 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
| [a] | Cybersecurity risk |
With the increased use of technologies to conduct business, the Company is susceptible to operational, crypto assets and related risks. In general, cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events. Cyber-attacks include but are not limited to third parties gaining unauthorized access to information technology systems (e.g., through “hacking” or malicious software coding) for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data, or causing operational disruption. Cyber-attacks may also be carried out in a manner that does not require gaining unauthorized access, such as causing denial-of-service attacks on websites (attempts to make network services unavailable to the normal intended users).
Cyber incidents affecting the Company and its counterparties have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in interference with the Company’s day-to-day operations. Similar adverse consequences could result from cyber incidents affecting issuers of crypto assets. While the Company has established risk management systems to prevent cyber incidents and business continuity plans in the event of such cyber incidents occurring, there are inherent limitations in such systems and plans including the possibility that certain risks may have not been identified in advance.
| [b] | Political, legal, and/or regulatory risk |
The legal status of crypto assets may be uncertain. It is unclear whether they constitute property, assets, or rights of any kind. Crypto assets are not backed by governments, and accounts and balances are not subject to any statutory or government protections. Regulation of crypto assets and crypto asset exchanges is currently undeveloped and is likely to rapidly evolve. It is possible that some countries are already considering or may in the future put in place laws, regulations or other actions which may severely impact the Company’s operations. This is particularly the case as crypto assets have grown in popularity and market size. New or changing laws and regulations may have an impact on the Company’s future operations.
| [c] | Counterparty and custodian wallet risk |
Having crypto assets on deposit or with any third party in a custodial relationship has attendant risks. These risks include potential for security breaches, risk of contractual breach, and risk of loss. The Company may have a high concentration of its crypto assets in one location or with one third party custody provider, which may be prone to losses arising out of hacking, loss of passwords, compromised access credentials, malware, compromised private keys, unauthorized access to private key, or cyber-attacks. The Company maintains custody of the unique private keys for all of its customer crypto assets. Such unique private keys control the movement and access of the crypto assets. The Company is responsible for taking such steps as it determines to be required to maintain access to these keys, and prevent exposure from hacking, malware, and general security threats. The theft, loss or destruction of a private key is irreversible and could result in substantial or total loss of crypto assets. The Company has controls in place to mitigate against the risk of unauthorized access to or loss of customer assets within the Company’s self-custodied wallets held on behalf of customers.
| [d] | Risk of loss of private key(s) |
Crypto assets are controllable only by the possessor of unique private keys relating to the addresses in which the crypto assets are held. The theft, loss or destruction of a private key required to access a crypto asset is irreversible, and such private keys would not be capable of being restored by the Company. Any loss of private keys relating to crypto wallets used to store the Company’s crypto assets (including customer assets) could result in the loss of these crypto assets and customers and other stakeholders could incur substantial, or even total loss.
The Company is responsible for taking such steps as it determines, in its sole judgment, to be required to maintain access to these private keys, and prevent their exposure from hacking, malware and general security threats. To the extent that the security system is penetrated, any loss of crypto assets may adversely affect a stakeholder’s interest in the Company, including customers.
| 28 |
Open World Ltd. | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
| [e] | Risks relating to crypto asset price volatility |
A key risk in trading crypto assets is the rapid fluctuation of their market price. Crypto assets have demonstrated significant volatility.
The price of crypto assets may be affected by a wide variety of complex and difficult to predict factors such as crypto asset supply and demand; rewards and transaction fees for the recording of transactions on the blockchain; difficulties with converting crypto asset to fiat currencies; availability and access to crypto asset service providers (such as payment processors), exchanges, miners or other crypto asset users and market participants; perceived or actual crypto asset network or crypto asset vulnerability; inflation levels; fiscal policy; interest rates; and political, regulatory natural, and economic events.
| 20. | PROPOSED MERGER TRANSACTION |
On February 11, 2026, the Company entered into a definitive merger agreement with VerifyMe, Inc. (“VerifyMe”), a publicly traded company listed on Nasdaq (Nasdaq: VRME), pursuant to which VerifyMe will acquire OpenWorld through a merger transaction. Upon closing, OpenWorld’s stockholders are expected to own approximately 90% of the combined company and VerifyMe’s legacy stockholders approximately 10%, on a fully diluted basis. The board of the combined company is expected to consist of seven directors, with six appointed by OpenWorld and one appointed by VerifyMe.
The proposed transaction is expected to establish a public market platform for OpenWorld’s digital asset and real-world asset tokenization strategy, enabling broader access to capital markets and enhancing the Company’s ability to scale its integrated platform and asset management offerings. Management anticipates that the combined company will be positioned to drive incremental revenue opportunities through the alignment of OpenWorld’s platform capabilities with its expanding ecosystem of strategic partnerships and initiatives.
The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including VerifyMe maintaining a minimum cash balance of $1,000,000 at closing. A termination fee of $400,000 is payable under certain circumstances. The transaction had not closed as of the date these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.
| 21. | STRATEGIC AGREEMENTS |
On May 5, 2026, the Company entered into agreements with Figure Technology Solutions, Inc. related to the tokenization and trading of the Company's equity securities in connection with the proposed VerifyMe merger transaction. The agreements contemplate the use of Figure's Onchain Public Equity Network ("OPEN") to support the issuance, trading and ongoing administration of tokenized equity securities. The agreements did not result in the recognition of any assets or liabilities as of June 30, 2026.
On May 19, 2026, the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent with Jolt Charge USA Inc. ("JOLT") to pursue a strategic partnership involving the structuring and implementation of a tokenized financing program for JOLT's electric vehicle charging business. Subsequent to the execution of the letter of intent, the parties revised the contemplated transaction structure such that an independent Cayman foundation company established to support the financing program, became the Company's contractual counterparty for the provision of platform, structuring, implementation, and administrative services. Accordingly, the Company entered into a services agreement with the Cayman Foundation governing the scope of those services. The broader financing transaction remains subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including completion of definitive financing documentation and funding.

of their equity arrangement. The surrendered shares were recorded as treasury shares, and the Company completed payment for the repurchase
of the unvested ordinary shares.
On July 31, 2026, certain consultant surrendered an aggregate of 1,112 unvested ordinary shares to the Company pursuant to the termination of their equity arrangement. The surrendered shares were recorded as treasury shares, and the Company recognized a liability for the repurchase of the unvested ordinary shares, which remained unpaid as of the date these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. In addition, 556 outstanding stock options held by a former consultant expired upon termination and were cancelled in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan.
Strategic Investment
On July 23, 2026, the Company received gross proceeds of $500,000 from the issuance of ordinary shares to Merkle Tree Markets Ltd. pursuant to a strategic equity financing. In connection with the financing, the Company entered into a strategic commercial arrangement under which the parties intend to collaborate on digital asset trading, treasury management, token launch support, market-making, and other related strategic initiatives.
The Company evaluated the financing and related agreements as non-recognized subsequent events in accordance with ASC 855, Subsequent Events, and therefore no amounts related to the agreements have been recognized in the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
Share Subscription Facility
On July 24, 2026, the Company entered into definitive agreements with GEM Global Yield LLC SCS and GEM Yield Bahamas Limited (collectively, "GEM") relating to a share subscription facility of up to $50,000,000. Under the agreements, following the initial listing of the Company's ordinary shares on a nationally recognized U.S. stock exchange and subject to the terms and conditions of the agreements, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to require GEM to subscribe for ordinary shares over a 36-month period. The agreements also provide for the issuance of a warrant to GEM Yield Bahamas Limited to purchase ordinary shares representing 2.2% of the Company's outstanding ordinary shares upon listing, as well as customary registration rights in respect of shares issuable under the facility. The Company evaluated the execution of these agreements as a non-recognized subsequent event in accordance with ASC 855. Accordingly, no amounts related to these agreements have been recognized in the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
Notes Payable
On August 10, 2026, the Company entered into an amendment to its loan agreement with Webslinger Holdings Inc. to extend the maturity date of the outstanding principal balance of $1,500,000, as discussed in Note 12, from August 4, 2026 to November 2, 2026. All other terms of the loan remained unchanged.
The Company evaluated the amendment as a non-recognized subsequent event in accordance with ASC 855, Subsequent Events. Accordingly, no amounts related to the amendment have been recognized in the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Exhibit 99.3
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Introduction
As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 12, 2026, by OpenWorld Inc., a Nevada corporation (f/k/a VerifyMe, Inc.) (the “Company”), on February 11, 2026, the Company, VRME Subsidiary Corp., a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) and Open World Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Legacy OpenWorld”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as subsequently amended, the “Merger Agreement”) which provided for, among other things, the merger of Merger Sub with and into Legacy OpenWorld, with Legacy OpenWorld continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”). As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 30, 2026, the closing of the Merger (the "Closing") occurred on September 30, 2026. The Company prior to the consummation of the Merger is referred to in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements as “VerifyMe” and, following the consummation of the Merger, is referred to as the “Combined Company.”
At the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding ordinary share of Legacy OpenWorld was converted into a share of Company common stock at an exchange ratio of 1:77.27 (the “Exchange Ratio”). As a result of the Merger and the issuance of the merger consideration, immediately upon the effective time of the Merger: (i) holders of equity interests in Legacy OpenWorld were issued 11,686,124 shares of common stock, held options assumed by the Combined Company exercisable for an additional 2,096,093 shares of common stock, and owned approximately 85.48% of the fully diluted equity of the Combined Company; (ii) certain business partners and consultants Legacy OpenWorld was contractually obligated to issue warrants upon the Combined Company’s successful listing on Nasdaq were issued warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 300,000 shares of common stock (the “OpenWorld Warrants”); (iii) Maxim Partners LLC (“Maxim”), who served as financial advisor to Legacy OpenWorld, was issued 361,082 shares of common stock and owned approximately 2.25% of the fully diluted equity of the Combined Company; and (iv) holders of equity interests in VerifyMe prior to the consummation of the Merger continued to hold 1,425,154 shares of common stock, equity interest convertible into an aggregate of 179,657 share of common stock, and owned approximately 10% of the fully diluted equity of the Combined Company. Immediately after giving effect to the Merger, there were approximately 13,407,360 shares of Combined Company common stock issued and outstanding with an aggregate of 16,048,110 shares issuable on a fully diluted basis. These numbers include shares of common stock that we issued upon vesting and settlement of certain outstanding VerifyMe equity awards at the effective time of the Merger.
In addition, at the Closing, VerifyMe assumed each outstanding option for Legacy OpenWorld ordinary shares, whether vested or unvested, which automatically converted into an option to purchase shares of VerifyMe common stock (the “Assumed Options”). Each Assumed Option will continue to be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions that applied to such option before the effective time of the Merger, except that (i) the number of shares of our common stock issuable under the Assumed Options shall equal the product of (x) the number of shares underlying the option immediately prior to the effective time multiplied by (y) the Exchange Ratio (rounded down to the nearest whole share), (ii) the exercise price per share of such Assumed Option shall equal the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the exercise price of such option immediately prior to the effective time by (y) the Exchange Ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent), and (iii) each Assumed Option shall be governed by the VerifyMe, Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan.
Anticipated Accounting Treatment of the Merger
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet data assumes that the Merger took place on June 30, 2026 and combines the historical balance sheets of VerifyMe and Legacy OpenWorld as of such date. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and year ended December 31, 2025 assumes that the Merger took place as of January 1, 2025 and combines the historical results of VerifyMe and Legacy OpenWorld for the six months and year then ended. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of Article 11 of SEC Regulation S-X. The historical financial statements of VerifyMe and Legacy OpenWorld have been adjusted to give pro forma effect to events that are (i) directly attributable to the Merger Agreement and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (ii) factually supportable, and (iii) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations and comprehensive loss, expected to have a continuing impact on the Combined Company’s results.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is being provided to aid you in your analysis of the financial aspects of the business combination. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information of VerifyMe and Legacy OpenWorld has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, Pro Forma Financial Information. No management adjustments by VerifyMe’s management have been included by VerifyMe and, therefore, only transaction accounting adjustments are included in the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, which presents the combination of the historical financial information of VerifyMe and Legacy OpenWorld, adjusted to give effect to the Merger and certain other related events contemplated by the Merger.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2026, and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and the year ended December 31, 2025, have been prepared using and combining, and should be read in conjunction with, the following, in the case of the balance sheet, giving effect to the Merger as if it had been consummated as of June 30, 2026, and in the case of the statement of operations and comprehensive loss, giving effect to the Merger as if it had been consummated as of January 1, 2025:
| ● | VerifyMe’s historical unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2026, included in VerifyMe’s Form 10-Q as filed with the SEC on August 14, 2026; |
| ● | Legacy OpenWorld’s historical unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2026, included as an exhibit to the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 13, 2026, to which these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financials statements are also attached (the “Form 8-K”); |
| ● | VerifyMe’s historical audited consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2025, included in VerifyMe’s Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2026; and |
| ● | Legacy OpenWorld’s historical audited consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2025 included as an exhibit to the Form 8-K. |
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what the Combined Company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Merger been completed as of the date indicated. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial information also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the Combined Company. The unaudited pro forma adjustments represent the estimates of VerifyMe’s and Legacy OpenWorld’s management, as applicable, based on information available as of the date of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions used to present the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. Management of VerifyMe and Legacy OpenWorld have made significant estimates and assumptions in the determination of the pro forma adjustments. As the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final amounts recorded may differ materially from the information presented and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and analyses are performed. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read together with VerifyMe’s and Legacy OpenWorld’s historical financial statements and related notes thereto, as applicable, and the sections titled “VerifyMe Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and “OpenWorld Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and other financial information included in VerifyMe’s Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on March 31, 2026 and August 14, 2026, respectively, and Legacy OpenWorld’s historical financial statements included as an exhibit to the Form 8-K.
The Merger will be accounted for as a reverse merger using the acquisition method of accounting under the provisions of ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Under this method of accounting, VerifyMe will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Merger will be treated as the equivalent of Legacy OpenWorld issuing shares at the Closing for the net assets of VerifyMe as of the Closing, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of VerifyMe will be stated at fair value, with goodwill recorded, as VerifyMe continues as a business.
Legacy OpenWorld has been determined to be the accounting acquirer based on the following:
| ● | Legacy OpenWorld’s stockholders own a substantial majority of the voting rights of the Combined Company; |
| ● | Legacy OpenWorld designated a majority of the members of the board of directors of the Combined Company; and |
| ● | Legacy OpenWorld’s senior management holds the majority of key positions in senior management of the Combined Company. |

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Note 1: Basis of presentation
The historical financial information and statements of operations and comprehensive loss for both VerifyMe and Legacy OpenWorld as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and the year ended December 31, 2025, was prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The two companies will combine through a reverse merger transaction. As a result, the Merger adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and statements of operations and comprehensive loss as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and the year ended December 31, 2025, reflect the impact of the Merger transaction, and align VerifyMe’s historical financial statement balances with the presentation of Legacy OpenWorld’s historical consolidated financial statements. In preparing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, certain reclassifications have been made to the historical financial statements of VerifyMe and Legacy OpenWorld to conform presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on total assets, total liabilities, total stockholders' equity, or net loss, but were made to align financial statement line items and disclosures for consistency.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and statements of operations and comprehensive loss assume the Merger has occurred as of June 30, 2026 and January 1, 2025, respectively, and any transactions which are triggered by the Merger (Note 4) are also included in the presentation. In addition, certain components of Legacy OpenWorld’s results, including changes in the fair value of digital assets, receivables, investments, and derivative instruments, are non-cash in nature and may introduce significant volatility to reported earnings. VerifyMe’s management believes that separating operating results from these non-cash fair value changes provides additional context for understanding the Company’s performance on a pro forma basis.
Note 2: Accounting Policies
Accounting rules require evaluation of certain assumptions, estimates, or determination of financial statement classifications. The accounting policies of VerifyMe may materially vary from those of Legacy OpenWorld. During preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, VerifyMe’s management has performed a preliminary analysis and is not aware of any material differences, and accordingly, this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information assumes no material differences in accounting policies. Following the Closing, a more detailed review and comparison of the two companies’ accounting policies will be performed. As a result, additional differences between the accounting policies of the two companies may be identified that, when conformed, could have had a material impact on the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.
Note 3: Preliminary Purchase Consideration Allocation
Because Legacy OpenWorld is treated as the acquiring company for accounting purposes, Legacy OpenWorld’s assets and liabilities are recorded at their carrying amounts prior to the Closing and the historical operations that are reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are those of Legacy OpenWorld. VerifyMe’s assets and liabilities are measured and recognized at their fair values as of the date of the Closing and combined with the assets, liabilities and results of operations of Legacy OpenWorld following the Closing. The purchase consideration has been determined using the share price of VerifyMe common stock on September 30, 2026 of $8.98. If the transaction had occurred on June 30, 2026, the estimated preliminary fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities (and related tax impacts) of the Combined Company and the purchase consideration would be as follows (in thousands):
| Assets acquired: | ||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 5,092 | ||
| Accounts receivable, net | 558 | |||
| Prepaids and other current assets | 499 | |||
| Property and equipment, net | 13 | |||
| Intangible assets, net | 2,304 | |||
| Total assets | 8,466 | |||
| Total liabilities assumed: | $ | (1,423 | ) | |
| Net assets acquired | $ | 7,043 | ||
| Estimated purchase consideration | $ | 14,411 | ||
| Goodwill | $ | 7,368 | ||
The consideration for the Merger is summarized below, assuming the Merger occurred on January 1, 2025:
| Shares of Combined Company common stock issued to Legacy OpenWorld Shareholders, or issuable to holders of Assumed Options, in connection with the Merger at the Exchange Ratio resulting in Legacy OpenWorld securityholders collectively owning approximately 85.48% of the Combined Company common stock, on a fully diluted basis | 13,782,217 | |||
| Shares of Combined Company common stock issued to Maxim in connection with the Merger at an Exchange Ratio resulting in Maxim collectively owning approximately 2.25% of the Combined Company common stock, on a fully diluted basis | 361,082 | |||
| Shares of Combined Company common stock issuable to certain business partners and consultants Legacy OpenWorld was contractually obligated to issue warrants upon the Combined Company’s successful listing on Nasdaq, representing approximately 1.87% of the Combined Company common stock, on a fully diluted basis | 300,000 | |||
| Shares of Combined Company common stock held by VerifyMe stockholders, or issuable to holders of VerifyMe equity interests convertible into Combined Company common stock, upon the effectiveness of the Merger, collectively representing approximately 10.0% of the Combined Company common stock, on a fully diluted basis | 1,604,811 | |||
| Total shares of Combined Company common stock | 16,048,110 | |||
| VerifyMe stock price on September 30, 2026 | $ | 8.98 | ||
| Total Combined Company market cap | $ | 144,112,028 | ||
| Purchase consideration to VerifyMe stockholders (10% of Combined Company market cap) | $ | 14,411,203 |
Note 4. Adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements
Adjustments included in the column under the heading “Accounting Adjustments” are primarily based on information contained within the Merger Agreement. Further analysis will be performed after the completion of the Merger to confirm these estimates or make adjustments in the final purchase price allocation, as necessary.
Given VerifyMe’s history of net losses and valuation allowance, management assumed a statutory tax rate of 0%. Therefore, the pro forma adjustments to the condensed combined statements of operations and comprehensive loss resulted in no additional income tax adjustment to the pro forma financials. Certain components of Legacy OpenWorld’s results, including changes in the fair value of digital assets, receivables, investments, and derivative instruments, are non-cash in nature and may introduce significant volatility to reported earnings.
The unaudited pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are as follows:
Adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2026:
| A. | To eliminate VerifyMe’s pre-Merger equity balances including preferred and common stock, treasury stock, additional paid-in capital, and accumulated deficit. |
| B. | To record a preliminary estimate of goodwill arising from the excess of the estimated purchase consideration over the fair value of VerifyMe assets acquired and liabilities assumed by Legacy OpenWorld. |
| C. | To record VerifyMe non-recurring share based compensation expense related to the acceleration of vesting upon change of control. This pro forma adjustment is not reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations and comprehensive loss because these amounts are not expected to have a continuing effect on the operating results of the Combined Company. |
| D. | To record the adjustments for (i) VerifyMe’s weighted-average common stock outstanding, (ii) the conversion of VerifyMe convertible preferred stock to common stock, and (iii) the conversion of Legacy OpenWorld shares, options, warrants and SAFEs for the purchase of Legacy OpenWorld shares to VerifyMe common stock. |
To record the following adjustments to Legacy OpenWorld and Verify Me stock based on the Exchange Ratio and the pro forma capitalization of the Combined Company on a fully diluted basis:

| E. | To record share-based compensation expense resulting from the issuance of warrants in connection with certain consulting agreements, to be effective upon Closing of the Merger.

Note 5: Pro Forma Earnings (Loss) per Share
The following table sets forth the Combined Company’s pro forma basic and diluted loss per share for the period presented. The pro forma net loss reflects the impact of the business combination between Legacy OpenWorld and VerifyMe, as required under Article 11 of Regulation S-X. Pro forma weighted average shares outstanding give effect to the assumed issuance of VerifyMe common stock, conversion of Legacy OpenWorld equity interests, and other equity-class adjustments as if the transaction had occurred at the beginning of the period presented. Because the Combined Company reported a net loss for the period presented, all potentially dilutive securities were anti-dilutive and therefore excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share. Accordingly, basic and diluted loss per share are the same.

| Pro forma net loss | $ | (6,033 | ) | |
| Weighted average shares outstanding pro forma, basic and diluted | 11,074,900 | |||

Note 6: Digital Assets and Non-Cash Impact
Legacy OpenWorld accounts for its crypto assets in accordance with ASC Topic 350-60, Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets, which requires measurement at fair value with changes recognized in net income. As a result, the Company’s results of operations include significant non-cash gains and losses driven by changes in market prices of digital assets.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized the following non-cash gains (losses) related to the fair value measurement of digital assets (in thousands):
Six months Ended June 30, 2026 | ||||

| Unrealized loss from fair value changes | (8,155 | ) | ||
| Total crypto-related impact to earnings | $ | (12,530 | ) | |
Unrealized gains (losses) are primarily non-cash in nature and are driven by changes in market prices.
