PART I

 

Item 1. Business

 

Overview of Business

 

Unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “AIFA,” “Allied” and the “Company” refer to All In FutureTech Alliance, Inc.and its subsidiaries. All In FutureTech Alliance, Inc. was formerly known as Allied Gaming & Entertainment, Inc..

 

Allied is a global experiential entertainment company focused on connecting audiences through gaming, live events, digital content, immersive experiences, and emerging technology-driven entertainment ecosystems. The Company operates a diversified platform spanning esports and live entertainment venues, mobile gaming, original content production, experiential events, and strategic investments in future technology, digital infrastructure, and education-related initiatives.

 

Prior to July 2021, the Company owned and operated the World Poker Tour (“WPT”) business and the Allied Esports business. On July 12, 2021, the Company completed the sale of its WPT business for gross proceeds of approximately $106 million. Following the divestiture, the Company repositioned its operations toward a broader experiential entertainment and gaming-focused strategy.

 

As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s operations primarily include Allied Esports International, Allied Mobile Entertainment, Allied Experiential Entertainment, and various strategic growth initiatives under development. Allied Esports International owns and operates HyperX Arena Las Vegas, one of the world’s most recognized esports and immersive entertainment venues, located at the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Company also operates the Allied Esports Omen Truck, a mobile gaming and activation arena, and an original content production studio focused on proprietary programming, brand activations, livestream productions, and community engagement initiatives.

 

The Company provides a broad range of gaming, entertainment, and experiential services, including esports tournaments, live and virtual entertainment events, influencer and creator activations, original content programming, fan engagement experiences, and gaming-related community events designed to serve Gen Y, Gen Z, and Gen Alpha audiences globally.

 

In December 2022, the Company completed a strategic review of its business operations and announced plans to restructure its esports operations and expand into broader gaming lifestyle, entertainment, and digital ecosystem opportunities. Since then, the Company has actively pursued strategic acquisitions, investments, joint ventures, and partnership opportunities designed to diversify revenue streams, expand monetization capabilities, and position the Company for long-term growth across gaming, entertainment, digital infrastructure, and emerging technology sectors.

 

As part of this strategic transformation, the Company has increasingly focused on the convergence of experiential entertainment, mobile gaming, artificial intelligence (“AI”), digital infrastructure, and token-enabled ecosystems. Management believes that the rapid evolution of AI applications, high-performance computing demand, digital connectivity infrastructure, and creator-driven digital economies present significant long-term opportunities for integrated entertainment and technology platforms.

 

On October 31, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of a 40% equity interest in Beijing Lianzhong Zhihe Technology Co., Ltd. (“Z-Tech”), a developer and operator of casual mobile games specializing in card and Mahjong-related gaming products. Pursuant to the acquisition agreement, the Company obtained the right to appoint three out of five members of Z-Tech’s board of directors, making Allied the largest shareholder of Z-Tech. Through this investment, the Company expanded its presence in mobile gaming, digital user engagement, and in-game monetization capabilities, while also gaining access to additional gaming communities and advertising technologies.

In November 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of Saiju School, an accredited vocational educational institution in Japan. Following the acquisition, the Company began developing plans to transform the institution into Allied International Futuretech Academy, a future-oriented educational platform integrating esports, digital content creation, live event production, animation, AI applications, gaming-related technologies, and experiential entertainment training programs. The Company believes the acquisition represents a strategic expansion into education, youth engagement, and talent development ecosystems, while creating long-term synergy opportunities across Allied’s entertainment, gaming, content, and technology initiatives.

 

The Company is also evaluating opportunities in AI infrastructure, silicon photonics-enabled compute solutions, cross-border fiber-optic network transmission, digital infrastructure services, and related high-growth technology sectors. Management believes these initiatives may create future opportunities to integrate entertainment ecosystems, digital infrastructure, AI-driven applications, and tokenized digital asset frameworks into a broader next-generation platform strategy.

 

The global gaming and interactive entertainment industry continues to experience substantial growth. According to industry research, global mobile game revenue is projected to reach $138 billion in 2026, with the average spending per user expected to surpass $40 annually, with worldwide players estimated at approximately 3.42 billion. Industry forecasts project the number of global gamers to exceed 3.75 billion by 2027. In addition, the broader global gaming industry is projected to continue expanding at a strong compound annual growth rate over the coming years, driven primarily by mobile gaming, live-service ecosystems, creator-driven content, esports engagement, cloud connectivity, and emerging AI-enabled entertainment experiences.

 

Mobile gaming remains one of the largest contributors to industry growth, generating approximately $92.5 billion in revenue during 2024 and accounting for nearly half of global gaming industry revenue. Meanwhile, esports and livestream entertainment continue to evolve into mainstream entertainment verticals supported by sponsorships, advertising, media rights, creator economies, and large-scale community engagement.

 

Esports, an abbreviation of “electronic sports,” encompasses competitive video gaming across a wide range of titles and genres. Competitive gaming has evolved into a global spectator-driven entertainment category combining live events, digital broadcasting, streaming platforms, creator content, sponsorship activation, and fan communities. The increasing popularity of game streaming, influencer-led gaming content, and interactive entertainment experiences continue to drive engagement across both online and in-person channels.

 

Esports Trends for 2026

 

·

The Rise of Mobile Esports: Mobile esports are officially breaking out of regional boundaries. Titles like Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, Free Fire, and Honor of Kings are driving the largest viewership growth, particularly in emerging markets like Southeast Asia, India, and Latin America.

 

·

Merging with Entertainment: The line between competitive gaming and broader entertainment continues to blur. Creator-driven tournaments and collaborations between pro players, streamers, and media brands are matching or surpassing traditional esports viewership.

 

·

AI and Data-Driven Competition: AI is becoming a major force in esports analytics. By 2026, AI-assisted coaching tools, automated highlight generation, and real-time performance tracking are expected to become standard across top-tier teams.

 

·

Institutionalization and Regulation: Esports is becoming highly formalized, with countries establishing benchmarks for athlete management, visa systems, and anti-doping policies to legitimize it as a sustainable career. Notably, the 2026 Asian Games in Japan will feature esports as an official medal discipline across 11 titles.

 

·

Massive Revenue and Global Circuits: The broader esports market—including sponsorships, media rights, and merchandise—is projected to hit $3.17 billion in 2026. The year will feature a highly commercialized global circuit, anchored by mega-events like the Esports World Cup in Riyadh, the League of Legends World Championship (expected in North America), and the Global Esports World Finals in Los Angeles.

The audience for live game streaming and interactive entertainment content continues to grow globally, supported by advances in mobile connectivity, digital infrastructure, streaming technologies, and social media engagement. Management believes the continued convergence of gaming, creator-driven media, live experiences, AI-enabled personalization, and digital commerce will continue reshaping the broader entertainment industry and creating new opportunities for integrated experiential entertainment platforms.

 

Allied continues to operate under a multi-pillar strategy centered around (i) in-person experiential entertainment and venue operations, (ii) multiplatform content and community engagement, (iii) interactive gaming and digital services, and (iv) strategic expansion into future technology, AI infrastructure, education, and digital ecosystem opportunities, both independently and through strategic partnerships and acquisitions.

 

Growth Strategy

 

As part of Allied’s long-term strategic transformation, the Company is expanding beyond traditional gaming and entertainment into future technology, AI-enabled applications, digital infrastructure, and next-generation ecosystem opportunities.

Corporate Organization

 

Our principal offices are located at 745 Fifth Avenue, Suite 500, New York, NY 10151, and our telephone number at that office is (646) 768-4240.

 

Allied Gaming & Entertainment Inc., (“AGAE”), formerly known as Allied Esports Entertainment Inc., or “AESE”, and prior to that was known as Black Ridge Acquisition Corp, or “BRAC”, was incorporated in Delaware on May 9, 2017 as a blank check company for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

 

Allied Esports Media, Inc. (“AEM”), a Delaware corporation, was formed in November 2018 to act as a holding company for Allied Esports International Inc. (“Allied Esports”) and immediately prior to the close of the Merger (as defined below) to also include Noble Link Global Limited (“Noble Link”). Allied Esports, together with its subsidiaries described below owns and operates the esports-related businesses of AGAE. Noble Link (prior to the AEM Merger) and its wholly owned subsidiaries Peerless Media Limited, Club Services, Inc. and WPT Enterprises, Inc. operated the poker-related business of AGAE prior to their sale on July 12, 2021, and are collectively referred to herein as “World Poker Tour” or “WPT.” Prior to the Merger, as described below, Noble Link and Allied Esports were subsidiaries of Ourgame International Holdings Limited (“Ourgame”).

 

On December 19, 2018, BRAC, Noble Link and AEM executed an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (as amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”). On August 9, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), Noble Link was merged with and into AEM, with AEM being the surviving entity, which was accounted for as a common control merger (the “AEM Merger”). Further, on August 9, 2019, a subsidiary of AGAE merged with AEM pursuant to the Merger Agreement, with AEM being the surviving entity (the “Merger”). The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, and AEM was deemed to be the accounting acquirer. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations that are reflected in the combined financial statements prior to the Merger are those of Allied Esports and WPT.

 

The Company operates through its wholly owned subsidiaries Allied Esports International, Inc. (“AEII”), Esports Arena Las Vegas, LLC (“ESALV”), Allied Mobile Entertainment Inc. (“AME”), Allied Experiential Entertainment, Inc. (“AEE”), and Allied Esports GmbH (“AEG”). AEII operates global competitive esports properties designed to connect players and fans via a network of connected arenas.

AEE focuses on orchestrating live entertainment events and offers management and consultation service to experiential entertainment venue operation.

  

Our fiscal year ends December 31. Neither we nor any of our predecessors have been in bankruptcy, receivership, or any similar proceeding.

 

Government Regulation

 

Allied intends to offer subscribers the chance to win cash and prizes when playing esports games and tournaments on the esports gaming platform it intends to develop. Allied is subject to the complicated laws and regulations in various states or countries over sweepstakes, promotions and giveaways. Any negative finding of law regarding the characterization of the type of online activity carried out on the esports gaming platform could limit or prevent Allied’s ability to obtain subscribers in those jurisdictions. In addition, Allied is subject to a number of foreign and domestic laws and regulations that affect companies conducting business on the Internet.

Intellectual Property

 

We believe that to maintain a competitive advantage in the marketplace, we must develop and maintain protection of the proprietary aspects of our technology and our intellectual property. We rely on trademarks and other measures to protect our intellectual property, and vigorously defend such intellectual property as necessary (e.g. cease and desist letters directed to infringing third parties).

 

Allied has one (1) patent in the U.S. related to systems and methods for latency in networked competitive multiplayer gaming that was issued by the UPSTO in July 2020. In addition to the patent, Allied’s intellectual property portfolio includes the following: (i) approximately sixty (60) registered domain names, (ii) an exclusive worldwide (excluding the PRC) casual gaming software license, and (iii) approximately twenty-five (25) trademarks, including, but not limited to, “Allied” – which has been filed in the U.S., “Allied” – which bold mark has been filed in China and Europe; the “Allied” logos – which have been filed in the U.S. and Europe; the “Allied Member Property Network” logo – which has been filed in the U.S., China, and Europe; the “Big Betty” logos – which have been registered in Europe; “Esports Superstars” logo – which has been filed in the U.S.; “Legend Series” logo – which has been filed in the U.S. and Europe; the “Allied” emblem – which has been filed in China and Europe, and “Glory Road” – which has been filed in the U.S. Allied updates its intellectual property portfolio from time to time as appropriate.

 

Competition

 

The esports gaming industry is competitive. Competitors range from established leagues and championships owned directly, as well as leagues franchised by well-known and capitalized game publishers and developers, interactive entertainment companies, diversified media companies and emerging start-ups. New competitors will likely continue to emerge, and many of these competitors will have greater financial resources than Allied.

 

The esports and entertainment business is a rapidly growing industry, and there are several competitors that Allied may face. Some of the key potential competitors include:

 

 1.Other esports organizations such as ESL and Faceit, and Blast tv, which also host esports tournaments and events.

 

 2.Gaming lifestyle influencers network and marketing companies such as Gamesquare, 100thieves, Super League Enterprise, which owns gaming influencers and have strong brand partnerships could create competition to Allied on sponsorship and advertising revenue.

 

 3.Gaming companies such as Riot, Tencent, Activision Blizzard, and Electronic Arts, which are involved in game development and also host their own esports events in their own selected venues.

 

 4.Live entertainment companies such as Live Nation and AEG, which also host live events and concerts and may expand into the esports space.

 

 5.Traditional media companies such as ESPN and Turner Broadcasting, which have created their own esports leagues and are broadcasting esports events on their networks.

 

Overall, the esports and entertainment industry is becoming increasingly competitive, with many players vying for a share of the growing market. To succeed in this industry, Allied will need to continue to innovate and differentiate us from our competitors, while also providing compelling and engaging experiences for their audiences.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

 

None.

 

Item 1C. Cybersecurity

 

We address cybersecurity risk with input from our employees and Audit Committee. The Audit Committee, and senior management devote significant resources to cybersecurity and risk management processes to adapt to the changing cybersecurity landscape and respond to emerging threats in a timely and effective manner. We regularly assess the threat landscape and take a universal view of cybersecurity risks, with a layered cybersecurity strategy based on prevention, detection, and mitigation. Our information technology (IT) security team reviews enterprise risk, including management-level cybersecurity risks annually. In addition, we have a set of Company-wide policies and procedures concerning cybersecurity matters, which include an IT security manual as well as other policies that directly or indirectly relate to cybersecurity, such as policies related to encryption standards, antivirus protection, remote access, multifactor authentication, confidential information and the use of the internet, social media, email and wireless devices. These policies go through an internal review process and are approved by appropriate members of management.

 

  8  

 

All employees are required to complete cybersecurity training and have access to more frequent cybersecurity training through online trainings. We also require employees in certain roles to complete additional role-based, specialized cybersecurity training.

 

We have continued to expand investments in IT security, including additional end-user training, using layered defenses, identifying, and protecting critical assets, strengthening monitoring and alerting, and engaging experts. We regularly test defenses by performing simulations and drills at both a technical level (including through penetration tests) and by reviewing our operational policies and procedures with third-party experts. At the management level, our IT security team regularly monitors alerts and meets to discuss threat levels, trends, and remediation. The team also reviews a monthly cyber scorecard, regularly collects data on cybersecurity threats and risk areas and conducts an annual risk assessment. Further, we conduct periodic external penetration tests, red team testing and maturity testing to assess our processes and procedures and the threat landscape. These tests and assessments are useful tools for maintaining a robust cybersecurity program to protect our investors, customers, employees, vendors, and intellectual property. In addition to assessing our own cybersecurity preparedness, we also consider and evaluate cybersecurity risks associated with use of third-party service providers. Our Internal Audit team conducts an annual review of third-party hosted applications with a specific focus on any sensitive data shared with third parties. The internal business owners of the hosted applications are required to document user access reviews at least annually and provide from the vendor a System and Organization Controls (SOC) 1 or SOC 2 report. If a third-party vendor is not able to provide a SOC 1 or SOC 2 report, we take additional steps to assess their cybersecurity preparedness and assess our relationship on that basis. Our assessment of risks associated with use of third-party providers is part of our overall cybersecurity risk management framework.

 

The Audit Committee has periodic discussions with management regarding cybersecurity risks. The Audit Committee performs an annual review of the Company’s cybersecurity program, which includes a discussion of management’s actions to identify and detect threats, as well as planned actions in the event of a response or recovery situation.

 

We face a number of cybersecurity risks in connection with our business. Although such risks have not materially affected us, including our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition, to date, we have, from time to time, experienced threats to and breaches of our data and systems, including malware and computer virus attacks. As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we are not aware of any previous cybersecurity incidents that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company.

Revenues

 

In-person experience revenue was $4.9 million and $4.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The increase in-person experience revenues consisted of a $0.3 million increase in event revenue and $0.1 million decrease in ticket and gaming revenue. The increase in event revenue is primarily attributable to the number of events held during 2025 versus the quantity of such events in the prior year.

 

Casual mobile gaming revenue was $3.0 million and $4.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in casual mobile games revenue was primarily due to the contraction of the online card game market as well as increasing competition from new mobile game developers.

 

  14  

 

 

Costs and expenses

 

In-person costs (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) increased by approximately $0.3 million, or 12%, to approximately $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 from approximately $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase is the result of the costs associated with third party events held at the arena during 2025 compared to 2024.

 

Casual mobile gaming costs (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) were $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and $3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, respectively, resulting from a decrease in user incentive, user acquisition and other costs directly associated with the decline in revenues.

 

Research and development expenses were $673 thousand and $865 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Research and development expenses consist principally of costs related to the development of new casual mobile games by our BLT and Z-Tech subsidiaries.

 

General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $17.7 million to approximately $31.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from approximately $13.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in general and administrative expenses resulted primarily from an $11.1 million increase in legal and professional fees incurred in connection with complaints filed by a dissident stockholder, a lawsuit filed against the stockholder for violations of Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and a proxy contest between the Company and such stockholder, a $2.0 million payment under a strategic cooperation agreement, which represents a significant first step in the Company’s planned development into a leading global fiber optic communication, computing power, and AI-enabled services provider, a $2.6 million CECL allowance on the Company’s loans receivable, a $0.5 million payment to acquire access to an educational license through which the Company will launch and monetize a variety of new educational initiatives and technologies, a $0.7 million increase in payroll and travel costs, a $1.1 million increase in consulting, audit and tax fees, as well as a $0.2 million increase in directors’ and officers’ insurance costs. These increases were slightly offset by a $0.5 million decrease in stock-based compensation due to restricted share awards granted on February 22, 2024, in which a portion immediately vested.

 

Impairments of goodwill were approximately $0.7 and $9.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The impairments resulted from management’s determination that the fair value of one of its reporting units was less than its carrying amount at the end of each year.

 

Impairments of long-lived assets were approximately $7.2 and $0.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The impairments resulted from management’s determination that the fair value of these assets were less than their carrying amounts.

 

Loss on escrow settlement

 

In 2024, we recognized a loss in connection with a Settlement and Release Agreement dated September 16, 2024, with Brookfield Property Partners (“Brookfield”), under which $3.0 million was released and paid to Brookfield from an escrow account established in January 2020 (see Note 14 – Commitments and Contingencies – Investment Agreement). The entire escrow account of $5.0 million was included in restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets from that date through the date of the Settlement and Release Agreement. 

 

Change in fair value of digital assets

 

The decrease in the fair value of digital assets was approximately $78 thousand and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We adopted ASU 2023-08 on January 1, 2025, which requires entities to measure crypto assets at fair value. The change in fair value represents fluctuations in the fair value of Ethereum and Bitcoin from the date of adoption or the date of purchase if made during year ended December 31, 2025.

 

Interest income, net

 

Interest income, net, was approximately $4.2 million and $3.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 respectively. Interest income is a result of the interest earned on fixed term deposits and equity, bond, and ETF linked notes, as well as interest earned on loans receivable during the periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The following table summarizes our total current assets, current liabilities and working capital at December 31, 2025 and 2024:

 

    December 31,   December 31,
(in thousands)   2025   2024
Current Assets   $ 76,776     $ 94,746  
Current Liabilities   $ 49,589     $ 30,478  
Working Capital Surplus   $ 27,187     $ 64,268  

 

Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources have been cash and short-term investments on the balance sheet, including the funds received through the sale of World Poker Tour.

 

As of December 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $11.8 million (not including $37.7 million of short-term investments and $1.3 million of marketable securities) and working capital of approximately $27.2 million.

 

Cash requirements for our current liabilities include approximately $33.1 million for loans payable, approximately $14.5 million in the aggregate for accounts payable and accrued expenses, and approximately $1.7 million for the current portion of an operating lease liability. Cash requirements for non-current liabilities include approximately $2.4 million for the non-current portion of an operating lease liability. The Company intends to meet these cash requirements from its current cash, short-term investments, and marketable securities balances.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company does not engage in any off-balance sheet financing activities, nor does the Company have any interest in entities referred to as variable interest entities.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require our management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial condition or results of operations would be affected. We base our estimates on our own historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable after taking account of our circumstances and expectations for the future based on available information. We evaluate these estimates on an ongoing basis.

 

We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: (i) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (ii) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period or use of different estimates that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. The following are not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of our accounting estimates. Our accounting estimates are more fully described in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our financial statements included at the end of this Annual Report.

 

Business Combinations

 

We record business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires all of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. The application of the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions in the determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in order to properly allocate purchase price consideration between assets that are depreciated and amortized from goodwill. The fair value assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management’s estimates and assumptions, as well as other information compiled by management, including valuations that utilize customary valuation procedures and techniques. Significant assumptions and estimates include, but are not limited to, the cash flows that an asset is expected to generate in the future and the appropriate weighted-average cost of capital. If the actual results differ from the estimates and judgments used in these estimates, the amounts recorded in our consolidated financial statements may be exposed to potential impairment of the intangible assets and goodwill.

 

  17  

 

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company’s annual effective income tax rate is based on the mix of income and losses in its U.S. and non-U.S. entities which are part of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, statutory tax rates, and tax-planning opportunities available to the Company in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company’s tax positions.

 

Tax law requires certain items to be included in the tax return at different times from when these items are reflected in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. As a result, the effective tax rate reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements is different from the tax rate reported on the Company’s consolidated tax return. Some of these differences are permanent, such as expenses that are not deductible in the tax return, and some differences reverse over time, such as depreciation expense. These timing differences create deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment dates.

 

The Company assesses uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. Judgment is used to identify, recognize, and measure the amounts to be recorded in the financial statements related to tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. A liability is recognized to represent the potential future obligation to the taxing authority for the benefit taken in the tax return. These liabilities are adjusted, including any impact of the related interest and penalties, in light of changing facts and circumstances such as the progress of a tax audit. A number of years may elapse before a particular matter for which a reserve has been established is audited and finally resolved. The number of years with open tax audits varies depending on the tax jurisdiction.

 

The Company assesses whether a valuation allowance should be established against its deferred income tax assets based on consideration of available evidence, both positive and negative, using a more likely than not standard. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of recent losses, forecast of future profitability, the duration of statutory carry back and carry forward periods, the Company’s experience with tax attributes expiring unused, and tax planning alternatives.

 

Assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements or tax returns requires judgment. The Company believes that income taxes include critical accounting estimates because variations in the actual outcome of these future tax consequences could materially impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain income tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement by examining taxing authorities.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews for the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company measures the carrying amount of the asset against the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with it. Should the sum of the expected future net cash flows be less than the carrying value of the asset being evaluated, an impairment loss would be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. The evaluation of asset impairment requires the Company to make assumptions about future cash flows over the life of the asset being evaluated. These assumptions require significant judgment and actual results may differ from assumed and estimated amounts.

Impairment of Goodwill

 

The Company reviews for the impairment of goodwill annually or on an interim basis if events or circumstances indicate that the fair value of an asset has more likely than not decreased below its carrying value. In determining whether a quantitative assessment is required, the Company will evaluate relevant events or circumstances to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after performing the qualitative assessment, an entity concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the entity would perform the quantitative impairment test described in ASC 350. However, if, after applying the qualitative assessment, the entity concludes that it is not more than likely that the fair value is less than the carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is not required. The Company bases these assumptions on its historical data and experience, industry projections, micro and macro general economic condition projections, and its expectations.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) (the “Exchange Act”). Based on the foregoing evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. 

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. 

 

  19  

 

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) (2013 Framework). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 was effective.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended December 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting. 

 

Inherent Limitations of the Effectiveness of Controls

 

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

 

Attestation Report of Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

This Annual Report does not contain an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm related to internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm as we are not an accelerated filer, nor a large accelerated filer.

 

Item 9B. Other Information

 

During the three month period ended December 31, 2025, no director or officer of the Company adopted or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.

 

Item 9C. Disclosure Regarding Foreign Jurisdictions that Prevent Inspections

Roy L. Anderson   Chief Financial Officer   67

 

Yangyang Li
Chief Executive Officer
  Mr. Li’s biography is included above under the section titled “Our Board of Directors.”
     
Roy L. Anderson
Chief Financial Officer

Family Relationships

 

There are no family relationships between any of the Company’s directors and executive officers.

 

Independence of Directors

 

When considering whether directors have the experience, qualifications, attributes and skills to enable the Board of Directors to satisfy its oversight responsibilities effectively in light of our business and structure, our Board of Directors focuses primarily on the information discussed in each of the directors’ individual biographies set forth above.

 

Nasdaq listing standards require that a majority of our Board of Directors be “independent directors” as defined by The Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. We currently have four “independent directors”: Yuanfei (Cliff) Qu, Mao Sun, Chi Zhao, and Jingsheng (Jason) Lu.

 

Mr. Yangyang Li is not independent because he currently serves as our Chief Executive Officer.

 

Board Leadership Structure and Risk Oversight

 

Yangyang Li currently serves as Chief Executive Officer and Chair of our Board of Directors. We believe this is appropriate for us at this time because the combined role of CEO and Chairman provides a clear chain of command to execute our strategic initiatives and business plans and allows such individual to serve as a bridge between management and the Board, which facilitates the regular flow of information.

 

One of the key functions of our Board is informed oversight of our risk management process. The Board administers this oversight function directly through the Board as a whole, through standing committees and if appropriate, by forming specialized subcommittees that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, our Board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic and operational risk exposure, including risks associated with acquisition of significant assets, changes in business models, major corporate transactions and market conditions in our industry. Our Audit Committee has the responsibility to consider and discuss our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures, including guidelines and policies to govern the process by which risk assessment and management is undertaken. The Audit Committee provides general oversight of our financial reporting, internal controls and audit functions. Our Compensation Committee assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee monitors the effectiveness of our corporate governance guidelines and is primarily responsible for assessing the risks associated with corporate governance practices, the independence of our directors, board composition and qualifications of directors.

 

  24  

 

 

Meetings and Committees of the Board of Directors

 

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Board of Directors held 14 meetings. We expect our directors to attend all Board meetings and any meetings of committees of which they are members and to spend the time needed and meet as frequently as necessary to properly discharge their responsibilities. Although we do not have any formal policy regarding director attendance at stockholder meetings, we attempt to schedule meetings so that all directors can attend.

 

We have a separately standing Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, each of which is comprised of independent directors. Each of the Company’s committees has a separately adopted charter which is available on the Company’s website at ir.alliedgaming.gg.

 

Audit Committee

 

Our audit committee currently consists of Mao Sun (Chair), Jingsheng (Jason) Lu and Yuanfei (Cliff) Qu. Each member of such committee is independent under the applicable Nasdaq listing standards.

 

The Audit Committee will, at all times, be composed exclusively of “independent directors,” as defined for Audit Committee members under the Nasdaq listing standards and the rules and regulations of the SEC, who are “financially literate,” as defined under Nasdaq’s listing standards. Nasdaq’s listing standards define “financially literate” as being able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a company’s balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement. In addition, we must certify to Nasdaq that the committee has, and will continue to have, at least one member who has past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional certification in accounting, or other comparable experience or background that results in the individual’s financial sophistication. The Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committee satisfies Nasdaq’s definition of financial sophistication and that Mao Sun qualifies as an “Audit Committee financial expert” as defined under rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

Pursuant to our Audit Committee charter, responsibilities of the Audit Committee include:

 

  reviewing and discussing with management and the independent auditor the annual audited financial statements, and recommending to the board whether the audited financial statements should be included in our Form 10-K;

Each member of such committee is independent under the applicable Nasdaq listing standards. The nominating and corporate governance committee has a written charter. The nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our Board of Directors.

 

Guidelines for Selecting Director Nominees

 

The guidelines for selecting nominees, which are specified in the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee charter, generally provide that persons to be nominated:

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider a number of qualifications relating to management and leadership experience, background and integrity and professionalism in evaluating a person’s candidacy for membership on the board of directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may require certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific board needs that arise from time to time and will also consider the overall experience and makeup of its members to obtain a broad and diverse mix of board members. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not distinguish among nominees recommended by stockholders and other persons.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters

 

OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS, MANAGEMENT AND DIRECTORS

 

The table below sets forth information known to us regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of May 6, 2026, for:

 

 each person we believe beneficially holds more than 5% of our outstanding common stock (based solely on our review of SEC filings);

 

 each of our “named executive officers” as identified in the summary compensation table; and

 

 all of our current directors and executive officers as a group.

 

 The number of shares beneficially owned by a person includes shares issuable under options, warrants and other securities convertible into common stock held by that person and that are currently exercisable or that become exercisable within 60 days of May 6, 2026. Percentage calculations assume, for each person and group, that all shares that may be acquired by such person or group pursuant to options, warrants and other convertible securities currently exercisable or that become exercisable within 60 days of the May 6, 2026, are outstanding. Nevertheless, shares of common stock that are issuable upon exercise of presently unexercised options, warrants and other convertible securities are not deemed to be outstanding for purposes of calculating the “Percentage of Shares Beneficially Owned” by any other person or any other group.

 

As of May 6, 2026, we had 38,265,046 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

 

Related Party Policy

 

Our Code of Ethics requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except under guidelines approved by the Board of Directors (or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee). Related-party transactions are defined as transactions in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) we or any of our subsidiaries is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater than 5% beneficial owner of our shares of common stock, or (c) immediate family member, of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity). A “conflict of interest” exists when a person’s private interests interfere in any way (or appear to interfere) with the interests of the Company. A conflict of interest can arise when an officer, director or employee takes actions or has personal interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise when an officer, director or employee, or members of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position at the Company.

 

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will be responsible for reviewing and approving related-party transactions to the extent we enter into such transactions. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider all relevant factors when determining whether to approve a related party transaction, including whether the related party transaction is on terms no less favorable to us than terms generally available from an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction. No director may participate in the approval of any transaction in which he is a related party, but that director is required to provide the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee with all material information concerning the transaction. We also require each of our directors and executive officers to complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.

 

These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.

 

Transactions with Related Persons

 

None.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

 

All In FutureTech Alliance, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of All In FutureTech Alliance, Inc..and its subsidiaries (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated 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.

 

1. Goodwill Impairment Assessment

 

As described in Note 2 and Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $0.7 million related to the goodwill associated with the ZTech reporting unit for the year ended December 31, 2025. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The fair value of the ZTech reporting unit was estimated using a combination of the income approach (discounted cash flow method) and the market approach (guideline public company method). The determination of fair value involved the use of significant management assumptions, including projected revenue, gross profit and EBITDA margins, discount rates, and terminal growth rates.

 

We identified the goodwill impairment assessment associated with the ZTech reporting unit as a critical audit matter due to the significant judgment required by management to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit. Performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s assumptions involved a high degree of auditor judgment and the involvement of a valuation specialist.

 

  F-2  

 

 

Our audit procedures related to the goodwill impairment assessment of the ZTech reporting unit included, among others:

 

Obtaining an understanding of, and evaluated the design and implementation of, controls over the Company’s goodwill impairment assessment, including controls over management’s development and review of the significant assumptions described above;
With the assistance of our engaged valuation specialist, evaluating the valuation methodologies used by management and assessing the reasonableness of the significant assumptions by comparing them to historical performance, industry data and market trends;
Performing sensitivity analyses over the significant assumptions to evaluate the impact of changes in those assumptions on the fair value of the reporting unit.

 

2. Valuation of long-lived assets

 

As described in Note 2 and Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $2.7 million related to the ZTech asset group and $4.5 million related to the AEII asset group for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company evaluates long-lived assets for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable. During fiscal year 2025, the ZTech and AEII asset groups performed below prior forecasts, indicating potential impairment. Management compared carrying amounts to estimated undiscounted future cash flows; where not recoverable, fair value was determined using a discounted cash flow method. The valuation involved significant assumptions, including projected revenue growth, operating margins, cash flows, discount rates, and terminal growth rates.

 

We identified the valuation of long-lived assets for the ZTech and AEII asset groups as a critical audit matter due to the significant judgment and estimation uncertainty involved in management’s fair value estimates, particularly in light of declining performance and changing market conditions. The evaluation of discount rates also required specialized skills and the use of valuation specialists.

 

Our audit procedures related to the valuation of long-lived assets included, among others:

 

Obtaining an understanding of, and evaluating the design and implementation of, controls over management’s long-lived asset impairment assessment, including controls over the development and review of significant assumptions used in the valuation models;
Evaluating management’s recoverability and fair value analyses for the ZTech and AEII asset groups by comparing projected future revenue growth, operating margins, and future cash flows to historical results, approved forecasts, and market conditions, and performing sensitivity analyses over significant assumptions; and
With the assistance of our engaged valuation specialists, evaluating the reasonableness of the discount rates and terminal growth rates used in the discounted cash flow models by comparing them to market and industry data, and testing the mathematical accuracy of the models.

 

3. Valuation of Loan Receivable

 

As described in Note 2 and Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recorded a current expected credit loss (CECL) of $2.6 million related to the loan receivables for the year ended December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s loan receivables totaling approximately $25 million, including loan principal and accrued interest, were contractually over due and no repayments of these loans and interests were received by the Company after their maturities through to date. All of these loans were guaranteed by an individual (“Guarantor”) and a company (Additional Guarantor) which is wholly owned by the Guarantor. In addition, the Company and the Additional Guarantor entered into a mortgage agreement, pursuant to which the Additional Guarantor pledged an equity interest in a Hongkong listing company it holds as collateral for these loans.

 

We identified the determination of the net realizable value of these overdue loan receivables and the related CECL as a critical audit matter. This matter involved especially challenging auditor judgment due to significant estimation uncertainty in management’s application of ASC 326, particularly in assessing borrowers’ ability to repay and estimating the recoverability of underlying collateral. The realizable value of these loans which largely depends on the recoverability of the underlying collateral involves complex assumptions on various outcomes from the actions to be taken by the Company and the application of specialized methodologies.

 

Our audit procedures related to the valuation of loan receivable included, among others:

 

Obtaining an understanding of, and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of, controls over the CECL process, including controls over loan impairment identification, collateral evaluation, and the development and review of key assumptions.
Evaluating management’s methodology to develop the credit loss estimations by inspecting loan agreements and the related mortgage agreement, assessing repayment status, reviewing borrowers’ and guarantor’s financial information, subsequent collections, and other available evidence regarding repayment ability.
Involving valuation specialists to assess the reasonableness of the methodologies and significant assumptions used in estimating recoverable amount of the collaterals of December 31, 2025, including benchmarking key inputs to relevant market and industry data.
Assessing the enforceability of the Company’s rights in the mortgage by reviewing the legal opinion issued by the legal counsel hired by the Company.

Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been derived from the accounting records of AGAE and its consolidated subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and includes the operations of AGAE and its wholly owned subsidiaries, and Skyline and Z-Tech. Skyline is a majority owned subsidiary of AEE. The accounts of Z-Tech were consolidated in these financial statements based on the analysis performed under the voting interest model (“VOE”). The Company has a controlling financial interest in Z-Tech and Skyline. As a result, the Company consolidates Z-Tech and Skyline.

 

Business Combinations

 

In applying the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations, amounts assigned to identifiable assets and liabilities acquired were based on estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition, with the remainder recorded as goodwill. Intangible assets are initially valued at fair value using generally accepted valuation methods appropriate for the type of intangible asset. Transaction costs associated with these acquisitions are expensed as incurred and are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

 

Use of Estimates

 

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, together with amounts disclosed in the related notes to the financial statements. The Company’s significant estimates used in these financial statements include, but are not limited to, the valuation and carrying amount of deferred tax assets and liabilities, stock-based compensation, the fair value of marketable securities, accounts receivable and loans receivable reserves, the valuation of acquired assets and liabilities, loss contingencies, the impairment of goodwill, as well as the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, including right-of-use assets, intangible assets and property and equipment. Certain of the Company’s estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company and general economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that these external factors could have an effect on the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

All highly liquid short-term investments of the Company that have a maturity of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company’s cash equivalents consist of money market funds of $4.8 million and $40 million, respectively. Money market funds are reported at their current carrying value, which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments and are categorized as Level 1 within the fair value table.

 

Short-term Investments

 

Short-term investments include certificates of deposit, fixed rate deposits, equity linked notes, bond linked notes, FX linked notes and a US Treasury Note with original maturities of greater than three months but less than or equal to twelve months when purchased. The carrying amounts of the certificates of deposit and fixed rate deposits are stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

The Company has elected the fair value option for recording its equity, bond and FX linked notes and its US Treasury Note, pursuant to ASC 825-10, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825”), whereby the hybrid instrument is initially recorded in its entirety at fair value and changes in fair value are recorded in other income (expense) on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company determines the appropriate classification of these investments at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation at each balance sheet date

 

Accrued interest receivable on short-term investments totaled $169,404 and $284,355 on December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and is included in current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

Marketable Securities

 

Marketable securities are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of operations, according to ASC 321 “Investments - Equity Securities”. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company purchased certain publicly listed marketable securities through an open market transaction and accounted for such investments as “investment in marketable securities” and subsequently measures the investments at fair value at the balance sheet date. These securities are categorized as Level 1 assets within the fair value hierarchy table. The Company recognized a gain of $462,396 and $5,952 from the sale of investments in marketable securities for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

 

Derivative Instruments

 

The Company has entered into an equity-linked decumulator contract with a financial institution to manage exposure to certain market positions and investment strategies. The contract is accounted for as derivative instruments under ASC 815 and are recorded at fair value within other assets or accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Changes in fair value are recognized currently in earnings within other income (expense). The fair value of the decumulator contracts is estimated using valuation models that incorporate significant assumptions, including expected volatility, market price movements, contractual settlement features, and discount rates. Due to the use of significant unobservable inputs, the fair value measurements are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820. As of December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a derivative liability of $657,136 associated with this contract.

 

Accounts Receivable and Loan Receivable

 

Accounts receivable and loans receivable are carried at their contractual amounts, less an estimate for credit losses. The Company estimates an allowance for credit losses based on the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) methodology. The CECL methodology requires an estimate of the credit losses expected over the life of an exposure (or pool of exposures) and replaces the incurred loss methodology’s threshold that delayed the recognition of a credit loss until it was probable a loss event was incurred. The amount of the allowance for credit losses is based on ongoing, quarterly assessments by management. Receivables are considered past due if full payment is not received by the contractual due date. Past due accounts are generally written off against the allowance for bad debts only after all collection attempts have been exhausted. As of December 31, 2025, the Company recognized a CECL allowance of $2.6 million on the loans receivable discussed in Note 12. As of December 31, 2024, no allowance for credit losses was determined to be necessary.

Property and Equipment 

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and impairment using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives once the asset is placed in service. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of (a) the useful life of the asset; or (b) the remaining lease term (including renewal periods that are reasonably assured). Expenditures for maintenance and repairs which do not extend the economic useful life of the related assets are charged to operations as incurred, and expenditures which extend the economic life are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the costs and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss on disposal is recognized in the statement of operations for the respective period. 

 

The estimated useful lives of property and equipment are as follows: 

 

Office equipment   3 - 5 years
Computer equipment   3 - 5 years
Production equipment   3 - 5 years
Furniture and fixtures   3 - 5 years
Esports gaming truck   5 years
Leasehold improvements  

Lesser of 10 years or remaining lease term

 

Internal Use Software Development Costs

 

The costs incurred in the preliminary stages of software development are expensed as incurred. Once an application has reached the development stage, internal and external costs, if direct and incremental, are capitalized and included within intangible assets on the accompanying balance sheet. Once they are ready for intended use they are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. On November 1, 2024 the internal use software was placed into service (see Note 11 – Intangible Assets – System Development Agreement for additional details).

 

Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill

 

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of ASC 360-10-35, Property, Plant and Equipment, Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets. This accounting standard requires that long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite lives, be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. See Note 3, Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. 

 

The Company accounts for goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an entity over the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. ASC 350 requires that goodwill and other intangibles with indefinite lives be tested for impairment annually or on an interim basis if events or circumstances indicate that the fair value of an asset has more likely than not decreased below its carrying value. The Company intends to perform its annual impairment testing at year end of each year.

 

In determining whether a quantitative assessment is required on an interim basis, the Company will evaluate relevant events or circumstances to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after performing the qualitative assessment, an entity concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the entity would perform the quantitative impairment test described in ASC 350. However, if, after applying the qualitative assessment, the entity concludes that it is not more than likely that the fair value is less than the carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is not required. The Company bases these assumptions on its historical data and experience, industry projections, micro and macro general economic condition projections, and its expectations.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

In connection with the Company’s annual goodwill impairment tests as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair value of one of its reporting units was determined to be less than its carrying amount, resulting in the recognition of goodwill impairment charges of $0.67 million and $9.57 million, respectively. The reduction in fair value was primarily attributable to a decline in revenues from the prior year. The fair value of the reporting unit was estimated using a combination of the income approach (discounted cash flow method) and the market approach (guideline public company method). Key assumptions included projected revenue, gross profit and EBITDA margins, discount rates, and terminal growth rates, which were based on historical performance, industry trends, and market conditions. After the impairments, the remaining balance of goodwill associated with the reporting unit is approximately $2.25 million.

 

The Company’s intangible assets consist of the ESALV trademarks, which are being amortized over a useful life of 10 years, and software licenses, software development costs, mobile games licenses, and customer relationships, which are being amortized over a useful life of 5-10 years. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $2.82 million on its intangible assets, see Note 3.

  

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”). 

 

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: 

 

  Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
   
  Level 2 - quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable.
   
  Level 3 - inputs that are unobservable (for example, cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions).

 

The following table provides information about the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicates the level of the fair value hierarchy utilized to determine such fair values:

 

As of December 31, 2025   Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Total

See Marketable Securities above for further details on marketable securities.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of items that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. 

 

The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain income tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement by examining taxing authorities.

 

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on uncertain income tax positions in interest expense in the Company’s statements of operations. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The Company does not expect the unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly over the next 12 months. 

   

Commitments and Contingencies 

 

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.

 

Net Loss per Common Share 

 

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to the Company’s common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the impact of common shares, if dilutive, resulting from the potential exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants and the vesting of restricted stock awards.

      1,270,000       9,434,546  

 

Revenue Recognition 

 

To determine the proper revenue recognition method, the Company evaluates each of its contractual arrangements to identify its performance obligations. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. The majority of the Company’s contracts have a single performance obligation because the promise to transfer the individual good or service is not separately identifiable from other promises within the contract and is therefore not distinct. Some of the Company’s contracts have multiple performance obligations, primarily related to the provision of multiple goods or services. For contracts with more than one performance obligation, the Company allocates the total transaction price in an amount based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices underlying each performance obligation. There were no contracts with more than one performance obligation for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

 

The Company recognizes revenue primarily from the following sources: 

 

In-person revenue

 

In-person revenue was comprised of the following for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

 

    For the Years Ended
    December 31,
    2025   2024
Event revenue   $ 2,507,611     $ 2,082,269

Food and beverage revenue     222,274       271,184  
Ticket and gaming revenue     305,690       414,881  
Merchandising revenue     41,072       62,863  
Total in-person revenue   $ 4,941,734     $ 4,669,644  

 

 F-15 

All In FutureTech Alliance, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Event revenues from the rental of the ESALV arena and gaming trucks are recognized over the term of the event based on the number of days completed relative to the total days of the event, as this method best depicts the transfer of control to the customer. In-person revenue also includes revenue from ticket sales, admission fees and food and beverage sales for events held at the Company’s esports properties. Ticket revenue is recognized at the completion of the applicable event. Point of sale revenues, such as food and beverage, gaming and merchandising revenues, are recognized when control of the related goods are transferred to the customer.

 

The Company generates sponsorship revenue from the naming rights of its esports arena which is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contractual term of the agreement. The Company records deferred revenue to the extent that payment has been received for services that have yet to be performed.

 

Multiplatform revenue

 

Multiplatform revenue was comprised of the following for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

 

    For the Years Ended
    December 31,
    2025   2024
Sponsorship revenue   $ -     $ -  
Distribution revenue     204       336  
Total multiplatform revenue   $ 204     $ 336  

 

The Company generates sponsorship revenue from the production and distribution of original content programming over live-streaming services. The Company recognizes sponsorship revenue pursuant to the terms of each individual contract when the Company satisfies the respective performance obligations, which could be recognized at a point in time or over the term of the contract.

 

The Company’s distribution revenue is generated primarily through the distribution of content to online channels. Any advertising revenue earned by online channels is shared with the Company. The Company recognizes online advertising revenue at the point in time when the advertisements are placed in the video content.

 

The Company records deferred revenue to the extent that payment has been received for services that have yet to be performed.

 

Casual mobile gaming revenue

 

The Company’s casual mobile gaming revenue is generated through Z-Tech which was acquired on October 31, 2023. Casual mobile gaming revenue is generated through contractual relationships with various advertising service providers for advertisements within the Company’s casual mobile games. Advertisements can be in the form of an impression, click-throughs, videos, or banners. The Company has determined the advertising service provider to be its customer and displaying the advertisements within its games is identified as the single performance obligation. Revenue from advertisements is recognized when the ad is displayed or clicked and the advertising service provider receives the benefits provided from this service. The price can be determined by the applicable evidence of the arrangement, which may include a master contract or a third-party statement of activity.

 

The transaction price is generally the product of the advertising units delivered (e.g. impressions, click-throughs) and the contractually agreed upon price per advertising unit. The price per advertising unit can also be based on revenue share percentages stated in the contract. The number of advertising units delivered is determined at the end of each month so there is no uncertainty about the transaction price.

 

The Company’s casual games are played on various mobile third-party platforms for which such third parties collect monies from advertisers and remit the net proceeds after deducting payment processing fees and player incentive payments. The Company is primarily responsible for providing access to the games, has control over the content and functionality of games before they are accessed by players, and has the discretion to establish the pricing for the advertisements. Therefore, the Company concluded that it is the principal in the transaction, and as a result, revenues are reported gross of payment processing fees and player incentive fees. Payment processing fees and player incentive fees are recorded as components of cost of revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Revenue recognition

 

The following table summarizes our revenue recognized under ASC 606 in our consolidated statements of operations:

 

    For the Years Ended
    December 31,
    2025   2024
Revenues Recognized at a Point in Time:                
Ticket and gaming revenue     305,690       414,881

Merchandising revenue     41,072       62,863  
Casual mobile games     3,033,281       4,409,192  
Distribution revenue     204       336

Total Revenues   $ 7,975,219     $ 9,079,172  

 

The timing of the Company’s revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by its customers. A receivable is recorded when revenue is recognized prior to payment and the Company has an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the provision of the related services, the Company records deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had contract liabilities of $218,275 and $656,382, respectively, which are included in deferred revenue on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

 

Through December 31, 2025, $641,602 of performance obligations in connection with contract liabilities included within deferred revenue on the prior year consolidated balance sheet have been satisfied. The Company expects to satisfy its deferred revenue balance of $218,275 within the next twelve months. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, there was no revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods.

  

Effective February 22, 2023, the Company entered into a sponsorship agreement which expires on April 2, 2026. The total contract price for this sponsorship agreement is $5.8 million. As of December 31, 2025, the aggregate transaction price allocated to the unsatisfied performance obligations under this agreement is approximately $0.46 million. The Company expects to recognize this revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied over the remaining term of the contract.

 

Digital Assets

 

The Company has ownership of and control over the digital assets and the Company may use third-party custodial services to secure them. The Company accounted for digital assets held as the result of the receipt of Ethereum and Bitcoin, as indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other through December 31, 2024. Following the adoption of ASU 2023-08 effective January 1, 2025, the Company measures digital assets at fair value with changes recognized in other (expense) income in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Refer to Note 9 – Digital Assets for further information regarding the impact of the Company’s adoption of ASU 2023-08.

Stock-Based Compensation 

 

The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. The fair value amount is then recognized over the period during which services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. The estimation of stock-based awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual results or updated estimates differ from original estimates, such amounts are recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period that the estimates are revised. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

 

Segment Information

 

Reportable segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker in making decisions about how to allocate resources and assess performance. The chief operating decision maker of Allied Esports is Allied Esports’s chief executive officer and the chief operating decision makers of Z-Tech and Skyline are senior executives of these subsidiaries. Separate discrete financial information for each of Allied Esports, Z-Tech, ACD, BLT and Skyline are reviewed separately by chief operating decision makers and the operations of Allied Esports, Z-Tech, and Skyline are managed separately. As such, the operations of Allied Esports (video game events and tournaments), Z-Tech and BLT (casual mobile games) and Skyline (live concert promotion) are reported as separate operating segments. See Note 19 – Segment Data.

 

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are charged to operations in the year incurred and totaled $34,778 and $60,237 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and are included in selling and marketing expenses on the accompanying statements of operations.

 

Concentration Risks

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments, loans receivable, interest receivable, accounts receivable and other receivables. The Company maintains cash deposits and short-term investments with major U.S. financial institutions that at various times may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. Cash equivalents of approximately $4.8 million held in money market funds are maintained in a foreign bank account and not covered by FDIC insurance limits. The Company’s US Treasury Note, bond linked note and equity linked note with an aggregate value of approximately $37.6 million are also maintained in a foreign bank and not covered by FDIC insurance limits.

 

As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s loans receivable consisted of three loans which were 44%, 36%, and 20%, respectively, of the Company’s total loan receivable balance.

 

As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s loans receivable consisted of three loans which were 46%, 29%, and 25%, respectively, of the Company’s total loan receivable balance.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, 38% and 49%, respectively, of the Company’s revenues were from customers in foreign countries.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company’s two largest customers accounted for 38% and 23% of the Company’s consolidated revenues. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company’s two largest customers accounted for 48% and 20% of the Company’s consolidated revenues.

 

As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s two largest customers represented 80% and 19%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts receivable balance. As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s two largest customers represented 88% and 9%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts receivable balance. Historically, the Company has not experienced any losses due to such concentration of credit risk.

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The Company’s reporting currency is the United States Dollar. The functional currencies of the Company’s operating subsidiaries are their local currencies (United States Dollar (“USD”), and Chinese Yuan (“RMB”)).

 

Yuan-denominated assets and liabilities are translated into the United States Dollar using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date (0.1429 and 0.1370 at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively) and revenue and expense accounts are translated using the weighted average exchange rate in effect for the period (0.1389 and 0.1391 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively).

 

The Company engages in foreign currency denominated transactions with customers and suppliers, as well as between subsidiaries with different functional currencies. Realized gains (losses) of $388,677 and ($28,725) arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, are recognized in other income, net in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Subsequent Events

 

The Company evaluates events that have occurred after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. Based upon the evaluation, the Company did not identify any recognized or non-recognized subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements, except as disclosed. 

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segments Disclosures (Topic 280), which updates reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses on both an annual and interim basis. The guidance becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. Since this new ASU addresses only disclosures, this ASU did not have any material effects on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-08, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350 – 60). This update requires an entity to subsequently measure certain assets at fair value with changes recognized in net income each reporting period. This update also requires that an entity present crypto assets measured at fair value separately from other intangible assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet and changes from the remeasurement of crypto assets separately from changes in the carrying amounts of other intangible assets in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Company adopted ASU 2023-08 on January 1, 2025 and recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the amount of $ 89,428.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which enhances annual income tax disclosure requirements intended to improve the transparency and usefulness of income tax information provided to investors and other financial statement users.

 

The amendments require:

 

·

Enhanced disclosure of the effective tax rate reconciliation, including disaggregation of certain reconciling items by nature and jurisdiction; and

·

Annual disclosure of income taxes paid, net of refunds received, disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes, as well as by individual jurisdictions that are significant relative to total income taxes paid.

 

The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 on January 1, 2025 on a prospective basis. The adoption did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, as the guidance relates only to disclosure requirements. The Company has included the additional required disclosures in Note 15 — Income Taxes.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements 

 

In November 2024, The FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220 – 04). This update requires an entity to disclose more detailed information regarding expenses for the entity. The amendments require that at each interim and the annual reporting period, the entity must disclose amounts related to purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization and depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil and gas- producing activities. Including the amounts, the entity is required to disclose and qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions, and to disclose the total amount of selling expenses and the definition of selling expenses. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods, and retrospectively to any prior periods presented in the financials. Although early adoption is permitted, the new guidance becomes effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Since this new ASU addresses only disclosures, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have any material effects on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Note 3 - Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets, including property and equipment, definite-lived intangible assets, and right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, in accordance with ASC 360 whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Such indicators include, but are not limited to, significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of use of the assets, adverse changes in the business climate, or a decision to dispose of or abandon an asset group.

 

For purposes of evaluating recoverability, long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent (the “asset group”). The Company tests the recoverability of an asset group by comparing its carrying amount to the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset group. If the carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the asset group’s fair value.

 

Fair value is determined using valuation techniques consistent with the market and income approaches, as appropriate, and is based on significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), including projected future cash flows, discount rates, and assumptions regarding future market conditions. The Company’s estimates of future cash flows are based on assumptions that are consistent with its internal forecasts and strategic plans.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company identified impairment indicators related to certain business units asset groups due to declines in revenues and/or changes in market conditions. As a result, the Company performed recoverability tests for these asset groups and determined that their carrying amounts were not recoverable.

 

Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $7.2 million (consisting of $2.7 million for the Z-Tech asset group and $4.5 million for the AEII asset group) during the year ended December 31, 2025, which is included in “Impairment of long-lived assets” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The impairment charge reduced the carrying value of the related asset groups to their estimated fair values. The impairment primarily related to:

 

· Property and equipment of $1.86 million
· Operating lease ROU assets of $2.57 million
· Definite-lived intangible assets of $2.82 million

 

The fair value of the impaired asset groups was determined primarily using a discounted cash flow model, which incorporated assumptions including projected revenue growth rates, operating margins, and discount rates.

 

As of December 31, 2025, the carrying amount of the Company’s long-lived assets was $6.95 million. Future changes in the Company’s estimates of cash flows, discount rates, or other assumptions may result in additional impairment charges in future periods.

Note 8 – Land Use Rights, Net

 

On December 23, 2024, the Company entered into a contract with the Natural Resources and Planning Bureau of Lingshui Li Autonomous County (“Assignor”) for the assignment of approximately 3.2 acres of land owned by The People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).

Land use rights are recognized at cost less accumulated amortization. According to the Chinese laws and regulations regarding land use rights, land is owned by the state. However, in accordance with the legal principle that land ownership is separate from the right to the use of the land, the government grants the user a “land use right” to use the land. The Company has the right to use the land for 40 years and amortizes the rights on a straight-line basis over that period.

Note 11 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill

 

The following table sets forth changes in our goodwill for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024: 

 

Balance, January 1, 2024   $ 12,729,056  
Impairment expense     (9,567,000 )
Foreign currency translation adjustment     (365,677 )
Balance, January 1, 2025     2,796,379  
Impairment expense     (668,818 )
Foreign currency translation adjustment     120,513  
Balance, December 31, 2025   $ 2,248,074  

 

Management reviewed goodwill for impairment in accordance with its accounting policies. As a result of this analysis, during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company determined that the fair value of a reporting unit was less than its carrying amount, resulting in the recognition of goodwill impairment charges of $0.67 million and $9.57 million, respectively. The reductions in fair value were primarily attributable to a decline in revenues from the prior year. It is reasonably possible that a decline in market or economic conditions, or changes in the estimates or underlying assumptions used in the determination of the reporting unit's fair value as of December 31, 2025, could lead to an additional impairment of goodwill in the near term.

Intangible assets consist of the Allied Esports trademarks, which are being amortized over a useful life of 10 years, AGAE software licenses and software development costs, which are being amortized over a useful life of 5 years, and AME mobile games licenses and customer relationships, which are being amortized over a useful life of 5-10 years. The initial term of the software license agreement expires on February 27, 2028, but can be renewed by the Company for an additional 5-year term under identical terms and conditions. At December 31, 2024, the carrying value of the software license was fully impaired based on a reduction of management’s estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows to be generated by this asset, resulting from a delay in the implementation of a marketing plan to promote the games associated with this license. The mobile game license agreement, as amended on April 7, 2025 expires on July 31, 2028. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, amortization expense amounted to $630,800 and $669,280, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded an impairment expense on its definite lived intangible assets of $2,815,859, see Note 3, Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. The weighted average remaining amortization period at December 31, 2025 was 7.6 years.

On July 2, 2024, AME-HK loaned an unrelated third party 1.324 billion JPY, or approximately $8.8 million (USD) under a six-month loan contract (“Loan 1”). The loan is fully guaranteed by certain assets of an individual (“the Guarantor”) and bears interest at 5% per annum, payable at maturity. On February 25, 2025, the loan was amended to extend the maturity date to June 30, 2025. In connection with the amendment, all accrued interest through March 31, 2025 was paid by the borrower. In addition, the collateral for this loan was increased to include a guarantee by a company (“Additional Guarantor”) wholly owned by the Guarantor. The repayment of this loan was not received on June 30, 2025. On July 4, 2025, the borrower paid all accrued interest on the amended loan through June 30, 2025.

 

On August 14, 2024, AME-HK loaned an unrelated third party 736.9 million JPY, or $4.9 million (USD) under a six-month loan contract (“Loan 2”).

On April 15, 2025, AME-HK and the Facility Borrower entered into a supplementary agreement to the loan contract under which (a) AME-HK issued a new loan of $9.5 million (USD) (“Loan 5”) of which approximately $4.7 million was used by the borrower to repay the $4.5 million loan (“Loan 3a”) dated October 10 and 14, 2024 and to pay all accrued interest through April 15, 2025, totaling approximately $184,000. The remaining $4.8 million was fully disbursed to the Facility Borrower on April 30, 2025, and (b) the maturity date of all loans were extended to September 30, 2025. The repayment of this loan and interest thereon was not received on September 30, 2025. 

 

 On April 15, 2025, AME-HK and the Additional Guarantor entered into a mortgage agreement, pursuant to which the Additional Guarantor pledged an equity interest it holds as collateral for Loan 1, Loan 2, Loan 3b, Loan 4 and Loan 5.

 

The Company, based on ongoing conversations with the borrowers of the loans that are currently past due, has begun to prepare for the legal and other actions necessary to exercise its rights over the collateral provided by the Guarantor and the Additional Guarantor.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $103,138,529, $29,088,261 and $4,112,898 of federal, state and foreign net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards available to offset against future taxable income. The federal NOL may be carried forward indefinitely. For state tax purposes, these NOLs will begin to expire in 2038. The foreign NOLs related to Z-Tech will begin to expire in 2028. The federal and state NOL carryovers are subject to annual limitations under Section 382 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code when there is a greater than 50% ownership change, as determined under the regulations. The Company is not aware that any annual limitations have been triggered. The Company remains subject to the possibility that a future greater than 50% ownership change could trigger annual limitations on the usage of NOLs. For federal income tax purposes, the Company’s future utilization of its NOLs may be limited to 80% of taxable income as provided under Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

 

The Company assesses the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be realized. ASC 740, “Income Taxes” requires that a valuation allowance be established when it is “more likely than not” that all, or a portion of, deferred tax assets will not be realized. A review of all available positive and negative evidence needs to be considered, including the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies. After consideration of all the information available, management believes that uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of its federal and state deferred tax assets and has, therefore, established a full valuation allowance as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. For the foreign deferred tax assets, management believes the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities will allow them to be a source of taxable income to realize the foreign deferred tax assets, as such no valuation allowance is established against the foreign deferred tax assets for Z-Tech. For AME-HK, the Company is in 3 year cumulative income, as such no valuation allowance is established against the foreign deferred tax assets for AME-HK.

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various state jurisdictions. In general, the Company’s tax returns remain subject to examination by various taxing authorities beginning with the tax year ended December 31, 2020. However, to the extent the Company has tax attribute carryforwards, the tax years in which the attribute was generated may still be adjusted upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities. No tax audits were commenced or were in process during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. 

 

The Company reviews its filing positions for all open tax years in all U.S. federal and state jurisdictions where the Company is required to file. The Company recognizes liabilities for uncertain tax positions based on a two-step process. To the extent a tax position does not meet a more-likely-than-not level of certainty, no benefit is recognized in the financial statements. If a position meets the more-likely-than-not level of certainty, it is recognized in the consolidated financial statements at the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company has not recognized any liability related to uncertain tax provisions as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. 

 

The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in interest expense. The Company had no accrual for interest or penalties at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and has not recognized interest and/or penalties during the years then ended as there are no material unrecognized tax benefits. Management does not anticipate any material changes to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months. 

 

Note 16 – Related Party Transactions

 

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, Z-Tech incurred royalty fees of $23,686 and $41,963, respectively, from Beijing Lianzhong Interactive Network Co., Ltd., an affiliate of Ourgame, under an intellectual property license agreement.

 

In December 2023, Skyline entered into a Project Cooperation Agreement with All in Asia, a 19% owner of Skyline, to secure venues, negotiate sponsorships, and to determine and prepay the performers for future concerts. Ourgame holds a 20% equity interest in All in Asia. The advanced payment of $3.7 million has been refunded back in April 2025.

 

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $322,344 accounts payable due to Ourgame.

Knighted Pastures, LLC

 

On March 7, 2024, Knighted Pastures, LLC (“Knighted”), an AGAE stockholder, filed a complaint in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Court”) against the Company (as a nominal defendant), the members of its Board of Directors, and certain additional defendants (the “Knighted Action”). The complaint alleged, among other things, that the members of the Company’s Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duty in connection with (1) the approval of a Share Purchase Agreement that AGAE entered into on or around December 28, 2023, (2) the approval and adoption of certain amendments to AGAE’s Bylaws on or around January 5, 2024, and (3) the approval and adoption of a rights agreement on or around February 9, 2024. The Knighted Action sought both injunctive reliefs and money damages.

 

On June 20, 2024, following expedited discovery and entry of resolutions by the Board of Directors addressing issues raised by the Knighted Action, the Court entered an Order granting in part the Company and Board of Directors’ motion to dismiss the Knighted Action as moot.  The Court therefore cancelled the trial in the Knighted Action. The Court ordered the parties to submit further filings on Knighted’s claim for attorneys’ fees and costs and any other issues required to bring the Knighted Action to a final conclusion. On August 2, 2024, Knighted filed a motion for an attorney’s fee award based on the purported corporate benefit its case provided to the Company and its other shareholders.

On August 28, 2024, the Court granted Knighted an attorney’s fee award of $3.0 million which was paid on September 11, 2024. On October 4, 2024 and October 30, 2024, the Company received reimbursements of $0.6 million and $3.1 million, respectively, from its directors’ and officers’ insurance carrier representing the attorney fee award and its defense costs in excess of the policy’s retention amount. On October 10, 2024, the Court issued an order closing the case.

 

On November 12, 2024, Knighted filed a complaint in the Court against the Company, the members of the Board of Directors, and certain additional defendants (the “Second Knighted Action”). Knighted filed the Second Knighted Action alleging breach of fiduciary duty in connection with approving the recent strategic investment with Yellow River Capital group (“Yellow River”) and the Securities Purchase Agreement with Blue Planet New Energy Technology Ltd, an affiliate of Yellow River. The Second Knighted Action seeks both injunctive relief and money damages. The Company believes the claims in the Second Knighted Action lack merit and intends to defend against them vigorously.

 

On April 25, 2025, the Board of Directors approved resolutions addressing issues raised by the Second Knighted Action. On that date, the Company and the director defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint as moot, or in the alternative stay the action pending the outcome of the Company’s combined 2024/2025 annual meeting of stockholders. On April 29, 2025, the Court granted the motion with modifications, continued the trial without rescheduling any date, and staying the case pending the outcome of the combined 2024/2025 annual meeting of stockholders. On May 22, 2025, the Court entered an order staying the case and preserving the status quo pending the outcome of the combined 2024/2025 annual meeting of stockholders.

 

On October 24, 2025, Knighted filed a motion seeking its fees and costs in the amount of approximately $5.9 million. On March 10, 2026, the Court issued an order granting Knighted’s motion for an award of such fees and expenses, which has been accrued for on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025. See Note 20, Subsequent events.

 

Frank Ng

 

On October 4, 2023, Frank Ng, the former Chief Executive Officer of the Company, filed an arbitration demand with the American Arbitration Association alleging that the Company failed to make approximately $1.0 million in payments allegedly due under certain Restricted Stock Unit and separation agreements. Due to nonpayment of arbitration fees, the arbitration was held in abeyance in December 2025.

 

Thereafter, Frank Ng filed a complaint in the Superior Court of California, County of Orange, asserting arbitration-related and breach of contract claims arising from the same underlying dispute. The Company filed a motion to compel arbitration, which is scheduled to be heard on June 12, 2026. The matter remains pending.

 

Since the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the amount of the loss, or range of loss, related to the Frank Ng matter, no accrual for this contingency has been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

 

Timothy G. Schuebel

 

On September 25, 2024, Timothy G. Schuebel, an AIFA stockholder, filed a complaint captioned Timothy G. Schubel v. Allied Gaming & Entertainment, Inc. et al., C.A.

The Company’s board of directors evaluated the claims related to the Rights Plan, and the Company and its board of directors’ legal rights. On May 30, 2025, the Board approved an amendment to certain provisions in the Rights Plan governing liabilities and fiduciary duties of directors under applicable Delaware law.

 

On September 8, 2025, the Court entered into an order closing the Action. The Company agreed to pay $85,000 in attorneys’ fees and reimbursement of expenses to resolve the matter which was paid by the Company on September 16, 2025.

 

Operating Leases

 

Allied Esports leases an arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, for the purpose of hosting Esports activities (the “Las Vegas Lease”). The arena opened to the public on March 23, 2018 (the “Commencement Date”). Initial lease terms were for minimum monthly payments of $125,000 for 60 months from the Commencement Date with an option to extend for an additional 60 months at $137,500 per month.

Investment Agreement

 

On January 14, 2020, the Company sold 758,725 shares of its common stock to BPR Cumulus LLC, an affiliate of Brookfield Property Partners (“Brookfield”) for $5,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”) pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Brookfield Agreement”). Under the terms of the Brookfield Agreement, the Purchase Price was placed into escrow to be used by the Company or its subsidiaries to develop integrated esports experience venues at mutually agreed upon shopping malls owned and/or operated by Brookfield or any of its affiliates that will include a dedicated gaming space and production capabilities to attract esports and other emerging live events (each, an “Esports Venue”).

 

To that end, half of the Purchase Price would be released from escrow to the Company upon the execution of a written lease agreement between Brookfield and the Company for the first Esports Venue, and the other half would be released to the Company upon the execution of a written lease agreement between Brookfield and the Company for the second Esports Venue.

 

On September 16, 2024, the Company and Brookfield entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release (the “Settlement Agreement”) to resolve and terminate all obligations under the Brookfield Agreement. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the entire Purchase Price was released from escrow of which $3,000,000 was paid to Brookfield and $2,000,000 was paid to the Company. The parties further agreed to release and discharge each other from any and all present and future obligations under the Brookfield Agreement. The $3,000,000 payment to Brookfield is included in other income (expense) on the 2024 consolidated statement of operations.

Note 18 – Stockholders’ Equity 

 

Authorized Shares

 

The Company is authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 and 1,000,000 shares of common stock and preferred stock, respectively.

 

Equity Incentive Plan

Rights Agreement

 

On February 9, 2024, the Company entered into a rights agreement with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust, as rights agent (the “Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Board declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (the “Right” or collectively the “Rights”) for each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock (each, a “Common Share” and, collectively, the “Common Shares”). The Rights were distributed to the stockholders of record at the start of business on that date (the “Record Date”). Each Right provides the registered holder, under certain circumstances and if the Rights become exercisable, the right to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of a newly designated Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Shares”) at an exercise price of $7.00 per one one-thousandth of a Series A Preferred Share. The Common Shares become exercisable following the earlier of (i) the tenth business day after public notice of a person who is or becomes the beneficial owner of ten percent or more of the common stock outstanding (“Acquiring Person”) that an Acquiring Person has become such or (ii) the tenth business day after the date that a tender or exchange offer by any person is first published or sent within the meaning of Rule 14d-2(a) of the applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act, the consummation of which would result in any person becoming an Acquiring Persson (the earlier of these dates is called the “Distribution Date”).

 

 F-33 

All In FutureTech Alliance, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

On that date, the Board also authorized the issuance of one Right with respect to each additional Common Share that becomes outstanding after the Record Date, but before the Distribution Date and, in certain limited circumstances, after the Distribution Date.

 

The Rights are not exercisable until the Distribution Date. Until a Right is exercised, the holder thereof will have no rights as a stockholder of the Company, including dividend, voting or liquidation rights.

 

At any time until the earlier of (a) a person becomes an Acquiring Person (as defined in the Rights Agreement) and (b) the final expiration date (as defined in the Rights Agreement), the Board may, at its option and in its sole discretion, direct the Company to redeem the Rights in whole but not in part, at a price of $0.0001 per Right (the “Redemption Price”).

 

Share Purchase Agreement

 

On December 28, 2023, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Elite Fun Entertainment Co., Ltd. (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Purchaser agreed to purchase 7,330,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, at a purchase price of $0.90 per share (the “Purchased Shares”) for a total purchase price of $6,597,000.

 

The Purchase Agreement is subject to customary representations, warranties, covenants and conditions, including an agreement that the Company and Purchaser will each use its best efforts to negotiate and finalize a collaboration or partnership agreement under which the Purchaser will assist the Company with organizing live shows and events in Asia.

 

On March 7, 2024, the Company closed on the share purchase agreement and received $2 million of the total purchase price for the Purchased Shares and the Purchaser agreed to pay the remaining consideration of $4.597 million within 2 months of the closing along with interest thereon at a simple interest rate of 5% per annum. The remaining consideration is collateralized by a pledge and first priority lien and security interest in 5,107,778 shares issued by the Company to the Purchaser.

 

On June 15, 2024, the Company and the Purchaser entered into a termination agreement pursuant to which each party agreed to terminate the Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the termination agreement, the Company agreed to pay the Purchaser $2,000,000 in cash and to forgive the Purchaser’s obligation to pay the remaining purchase price for the shares of $4,597,000, in exchange for the Purchaser transferring back to the Company all of the shares of common stock previously issued. All obligations under the termination agreement were satisfied as of July 3, 2024.

 

Securities Purchase Agreement

 

On October 18, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with Blue Planet New Energy Technology Limited (“Blue Planet”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue, and Blue Planet agreed to purchase, (i) 6,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company at a purchase price of $1.10 per share for a total purchase price of $6,600,000 and (ii) a corresponding warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase up to 6,000,000 shares of common stock, with an exercise price of $1.80 per share, which represents a 50% premium to the closing sales price of the common stock on October 17, 2024 (the “Warrant Shares” and together with the Purchased Shares and the Warrant, the “Registrable Securities”) (such transaction, the “Transaction”). The Warrant expires five years from the date of issuance. The Company determined that the warrant should be equity-classified, primarily because it is indexed to the Company’s own stock and it met the requirements for equity classification. Accordingly, because both the common stock and the warrant are equity-classified, it wasn’t necessary to allocate the proceeds or the issuance costs to the respective securities. The Securities Purchase Agreement is subject to customary representations, warranties, covenants and conditions. In addition, Blue Planet is subject to a 6-month lock-up period commencing from the date of closing. Total issuance costs were $247,732 including $198,000 in advisory fees and $49,732 in legal fees.

The Securities Purchase Agreement does not contain any voting commitment, and Blue Planet may vote its shares of common stock in its discretion for any matter requiring a vote of the Company’s stockholders. The Warrant may not be exercised if Blue Planet, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 19.99% of the number of shares of the common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise, unless the Company obtains shareholder approval pursuant to applicable NASDAQ rules. Finally, the Company agreed to register the resale of Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration statement to be filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

On April 25, 2025, the Company and Blue Planet entered into a termination agreement pursuant to which each party agreed to terminate the Securities Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the termination agreement, the Company agreed to refund the $6,600,000 and in exchange Blue Planet will transfer back to the Company all of the shares of common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock.

In the event the Company declares or pays any dividend in shares of common stock, or effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of common stock into a greater or lesser number of shares of common stock, then in each such case the amount to which holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted.

 

Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder to 1,000 votes on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation.

The expected term used for options is the estimated period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company utilizes the “simplified” method to develop an estimate of the expected term of “plain vanilla” option grants. The Company is utilizing an expected volatility figure based on a review of the historical volatilities, over a period of time, equivalent to the expected life of the instrument being valued, of similarly positioned public companies within its industry. The risk-free interest rate was determined from the implied yields from U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with a remaining term consistent with the expected term of the instrument being valued. 

 

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $23,506 and $54,493, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense related to stock options. As of December 31, 2025, there was $0 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to the stock options.
