Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information for Purposes of the "Safe Harbor" Provisions of

the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the

Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as

amended (the “Exchange Act”). All forward-looking statements are based upon our current expectations and various

assumptions and apply only as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our expectations, beliefs, and projections

are expressed in good faith, and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that

our expectations, beliefs, and projections will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are generally identified by the

words “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,”

“project,” “potential,” “continue,” “ongoing,” “forecast,” as well as variations of such words or similar expressions.

Forward-looking statements include statements concerning:

•our business plans and strategy;

•projected profitability, performance, or cash flows;

•future capital expenditures;

•our growth strategy, including our ability to grow organically and through mergers and acquisitions

(“M&A”);

•anticipated financing needs;

•business trends;

•our capital allocation strategy;

•liquidity and capital management; and

•other information that is not historical information.

There are a number of risks, uncertainties, and other important factors that could cause our actual results to differ

materially from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements, including those set forth in the sections

titled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” You

should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K in the context of these risks and

uncertainties.

We caution you that the risks, uncertainties and other factors referred to above and elsewhere in this Annual Report on

Form 10-K may not contain all of the risks, uncertainties and other factors that may affect our future results and operations.

Moreover, new risks will emerge from time to time. It is not possible for us to predict all risks. In addition, we cannot

assure you that we will realize the results, benefits or developments that we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially

realized, that they will result in the consequences or affect us or our business in the way expected and you should not place

PART I

Item 1. Business

Unless the context requires otherwise, in this Annual Report on Form 10-K ("report"), the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” the

“Company,” and “Exodus” refer to Exodus Movement, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Proper Trust AG, 3ZERO,

LLC ("3ZERO"), XO Italia S.R.L., Osmium, LLC, Osmium Europe B.V., Osmium Canada LTD and Osmium AU PTY

LTD. Additionally, references to our “Board” refer to the board of directors of Exodus Movement, Inc. Unless the context

otherwise requires, references to “common stock” refer to our Class A common stock and our Class B common stock,

collectively.

Our Company

We launched Exodus in 2015 and incorporated in Delaware in 2016 to create a wallet that enables users to securely control

and manage digital assets in an easy and straightforward way, without compromising users’ privacy or the security of their

digital assets. Exodus’ mission is to empower wallet users (“users”) to control their wealth through an un-hosted self-

custodial platform (the “Exodus Platform”) that provides access to the world of decentralized finance and the power of

blockchain. On desktop and mobile devices alike, Exodus delivers a simple, elegant, and intuitive experience where users

can send, receive and store over 700,000 digital assets. Depending on availability and jurisdiction, users can also access the

services offered and performed by various independent, third-party application programming interface (“API”) providers

(“API Providers”), which include digital asset exchanging, fiat onboarding and staking for over 30,000 digital assets. In

addition, the Exodus Platform integrates other third-party applications (“apps”), such as news apps.

We aim to enable our users to leverage the power of digital assets in an easy and straightforward way, without

compromising their privacy or the security of their digital assets. Management believes we accomplish our vision by:

•creating a platform designed for our users to retain full control over the digital assets held in their Exodus wallet

by encrypting the private keys locally on our users’ personal devices (private key data is not retained by Exodus);

•streamlining our users’ setup process by offering a range of self-custodial wallet options to hold users’ private

keys (including hot and cold wallets);

•providing quick access to the services offered and performed by our third-party API Providers;

•hosting and maintaining our own robust server infrastructure to help enable maximum uptime for all digital

assets on our platform;

•integrating third-party apps seamlessly into our highly functional platform to provide our users with access to a

rich ecosystem of ways to use and manage their digital assets, as well as providing us with potential additional

avenues for monetizing our platform; and

•providing timely support for users of our platform.

Exodus was founded by Jon Paul Richardson, our CEO and Chairperson of our Board, and Daniel Castagnoli, the President

of our wholly-owned subsidiary, 3ZERO, and a member of our Board, and was incorporated in Delaware in July 2016. On

December 8, 2025, the Company effected the redomestication of the Company from the State of Delaware to the State of

Texas. As of December 31, 2025, Messrs. Richardson and Castagnoli together control approximately 93% of the voting

power of our outstanding common stock, and holders of our Class B common stock collectively control 95% of the voting

power of our outstanding common stock. As a result, we are considered a “controlled company” within the meaning of the

corporate governance standards of the NYSE American LLC (the “NYSE American”), the national exchange on which we

list our Class A common stock, as described further in “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Ownership of Our Class

A Common Stock - We are currently a “controlled company” and, as a result, qualify for and could rely on exemptions

from certain corporate governance requirements.”

Gratitud Interna Ltd.

On November 10, 2025, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Gratitud Interna Ltd., a Latin American crypto

payments platform. The purchase price was $2.7 million, of which $1.5 million, excluding transaction costs, was paid in

cash and $1.2 million was delivered in newly issued Class A shares. This asset purchase expanded our payments

capabilities by adding technology in development, an assembled workforce, and a trade name supporting crypto-based

merchant transactions in the Latin America market.

W3C Corp. ("W3C")

On November 24, 2025, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire 100% of the outstanding equity

interests of W3C and its subsidiaries for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $175 million, subject to customary

adjustments.  W3C and its subsidiaries include Monavate Holdings Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Monavate”) and

Baanx.com Ltd. and Baanx US Corp (collectively, “Baanx”). Monavate is a global leader in payment solutions for

Financial Technology (“FinTech”), Web3 and global enterprises, and Baanx is a leading provider of non-custodial cards

and Business-to-Business-to-Consumer digital asset services. Upon the closing of the acquisition, we plan to enter the

arena of on-chain payments to become one of the few self-custodial wallets to control the end-to-end payments experience,

from wallets to cards. The transaction is expected to close in 2026.                                             

Our Industry

We operate in the FinTech subsector of the greater blockchain and digital asset industry. The following are descriptions of

key technologies used in our industry:

Blockchain Technology—Blockchain technology utilizes an open, distributed ledger managed by a peer-to-peer network

to record transactions between parties linked to the blockchain. The Bitcoin blockchain, and other blockchains such as

those of Ethereum and Litecoin, can be thought of as public record books of digital asset transactions. These record books

are “decentralized” in that they are copied and stored across a network of computers around the world.

                                                                 

For example, the Ethereum Blockchain is a distributed public blockchain network focused on running the programming

code of decentralized applications. These decentralized applications use self-executing contracts, also known as smart

contracts, to seamlessly facilitate activities on the Ethereum Blockchain. The smart contracts on the Ethereum Blockchain

are powered by Ether, the Ethereum Blockchain’s native digital asset, which is also traded as a cryptocurrency.

Accessing multiple blockchains and decentralized applications typically requires downloading complicated software

specific to each blockchain and requires configuration decisions executed by technically skilled specialists. Methods of

storing and leveraging digital assets are fragmented across multiple platforms compared to a traditional single hub. As a

result, blockchain technology has a reputation of being difficult to access and use, and many of the current options for

managing digital assets do not provide integrated or seamless solutions. Exodus and the API Providers Exodus contracts

with allow users to access multiple blockchains through the API Providers’ platform.

Digital Assets—Digital assets include assets that are digitally represented on the blockchain such as tokens, non-fungible

tokens (“NFTs”) and cryptocurrencies.

Cryptocurrency—A cryptocurrency is a type of digital asset that exists on a particular blockchain and can be moved from

one party to another party on that blockchain. On the Exodus Platform, cryptocurrency is held directly by its owners and is

immediately transferable, subject to applicable jurisdictional law.

There are five primary categories of cryptocurrency:

1.Store of value or “payment” cryptocurrencies: Store of value or “payment” cryptocurrencies are primarily used to

pay for goods and services and are often considered a substitute for gold, cash or other forms of electronic

payment. Merchants have begun to accept these types of cryptocurrencies as payment, although overall adoption

for retail and commercial services is currently limited and the cryptocurrency is often converted to a fiat

currency, such as the U.S. dollar, immediately upon acceptance by the merchant. Examples of store of value and

payment cryptocurrencies are Bitcoin and Litecoin;

2.Cryptocurrencies that are part of blockchain economies: Cryptocurrencies that comprise part of a blockchain

economy or blockchain platform and typically have more functionality than a payment currency. Blockchain

economies or platforms permit the use of the cryptocurrency to create other digital assets or tokens, run

decentralized applications on the blockchain platform, and build various types of functionality and features on

the blockchain platform. Examples of cryptocurrencies that are part of blockchain economies include Ether

(“ETH”), EOS and TRON;

3.Privacy Coins: Privacy coins are cryptocurrencies created to focus on privacy and security. Privacy coin

transaction details are typically encrypted, so that only the sender and receiver of the coins know how many

coins were involved in the transaction. In addition, the balance of a privacy coin wallet is known only to the

owner of the wallet and cannot be viewed on the public blockchain record. An example of a privacy coin is

Monero. While privacy coins may be beneficial to some, for example, individuals making donations that involve

5

Table of contents

privacy concerns, the anonymity of privacy coins has led some jurisdictions to ban them in an effort to limit

potential future use, illicit financing and other criminal activity. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to

Our Business – Our platform or our API Providers’ platforms may be exploited to facilitate illegal activity such

as fraud, money laundering, gambling, tax evasion, and scams, which could adversely affect our business.”;

4.Utility Tokens: Utility tokens are digital tokens run on a blockchain platform that are used solely to “pay for” or

“power” products or services on that specific platform. Examples of utility tokens include Golem and Basic

Attention Token; and

5.Stablecoins: Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies whose value is connected to an asset that is not expected to

significantly fluctuate in value. Different stablecoins have adopted different methods of stabilization. Examples

of stablecoins are U.S. Dollar Coin (“USDC”), Tether ("USDT"), and dai. While stablecoins are meant to

maintain a stable value, stablecoins are not risk-free and are not immune to fluctuations in price. A range of

factors may cause stablecoins to depeg from the pegged value, including supply and demand, market volatility,

market confidence and adoption, liquidity risk and technology risk. As a result, the possibility still exists for

stablecoins to fluctuate significantly in value over time, particularly where those stablecoins are connected to fiat

currencies that experience fluctuations, such as the decreasing value of the U.S. dollar due to inflation.

Each cryptocurrency is stored on a particular blockchain. The blockchain used by each cryptocurrency keeps a record of

the blockchain address and the amount of cryptocurrency held at a particular address. A private key is required to access

the cryptocurrency held at any single address.

Private and Public Keys—Digital asset “keys” enable users to manage digital assets on the blockchain. All transactions

occurring on the blockchain are available for anyone to see. There are two types of keys: public keys and private keys.

Transactions are identified publicly by the participants’ public keys, and participants use their private keys to verify their

identity as the rightful owner of the assets associated with their public keys.

•Public keys: A public key is an address that can be used to send and receive digital assets – it is analogous to

an email address. Public keys identify a particular blockchain address, but do not enable that address to be

unlocked. Instead, public keys act like a mailing address. If you want to receive a digital asset, you must

provide the other party with a public key.

•Private keys: A private key is a code that allows the owner to access digital assets located at a particular

blockchain and manage the digital assets associated with the public key – it is analogous to a password. If the

holder of the digital assets loses or shares a private key, the holder’s digital assets are at risk.

Key Management Solutions: Custodial vs. Self-Custodial—The person or entity that holds the private key for a public

wallet address controls the assets stored in that wallet. Private key management solutions generally fall into two broad

categories: custodial and self-custodial.

Within a custodial key management structure, a company or platform generates the private keys for their users’ wallets and

administers any and all digital assets sent to the addresses tied to those private keys. Custodial key management solutions

become custodians of their users’ digital assets and in that respect are extremely similar to centralized banks.

Self-custodial key management is a solution in which a person or entity generates and secures their own private keys, using

software or other means, and administers all digital assets that are sent to the address tied to those private keys. Self-

custodial key management solutions are not custodians of digital assets in their users’ wallet, but are merely repositories for

the digital assets, similar to the way a physical safe or leather wallet provides a means for people to secure their own

wealth. Users are solely responsible for securing the digital assets and the associated cryptographic key information and

protecting them from loss, theft or other misuse. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks to Our Business – Our platform or our

API Providers’ platforms may be exploited to facilitate illegal activity such as fraud, money laundering, gambling, tax

evasion, and scams, which could adversely affect our business.”

While the majority of people use custodial key management solutions, we believe that custodial key management solutions

serve merely as a temporary bridge between traditional institutionalized financial systems and the financial freedom offered

by complete self-custodial control over one’s digital assets.

Blockchain-based Financial Technology—Although the traditional banking system does offer protection against theft

through devices such as Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance in the United States, banks are

6

Table of contents

typically subject to regulations that provides governmental entities with the ability to freeze or take control of a customer’s

bank assets.

Self-custodial holding of digital assets offers consumers a payment option that does not rely on the traditional banking

system. We believe that as more people begin to hold digital assets, they will look for new ways to interact with their

digital assets. We believe that digital assets have significant advantages over traditional fiat currency, particularly when

used on self-custodial platforms. Unlike fiat currency held in traditional banks, digital assets on self-custodial platforms are

designed to be available without limited operating hours, restrictions on when markets open and close, or bank holidays.

Digital assets can also be transferred in real time, as the underlying technology is designed to avoid lengthy settlement

periods, and often with no or low fees. However, transfer fees and settlement times can vary depending on various factors,

such as network congestion. If transactions are successfully completed, digital assets will always end up at the wallet

address to which they are sent with a proof of receipt forever etched in the blockchain, which functions as a public ledger.

Most importantly, holders of digital assets that are self-custodial maintain full control of their digital assets. Users of self-

custodial systems do not need to rely on any bank or custodian entity to provide access to their own assets.

Wallets—Wallets are a software-based technology that allows users to manage their private keys that grant access to the

blockchain addresses where their digital assets are stored. They do not actually store digital assets the way one might store

a twenty-dollar bill in a physical leather wallet. Rather, the digital assets remain stored at a particular blockchain address on

the relevant blockchain, as described above in Private and Public Keys.

There are two recognized categories of wallets: hot wallets and cold wallets. Hot wallets are connected to the internet in

some way and typically reside on a website, desktop or inside a mobile phone, with the holder’s private keys stored

digitally. Typing one’s private key into a hot wallet will “unlock” the digital assets stored at the address identified by the

private key so the user can then access the digital assets. Cold wallets are physical devices, not connected to the internet,

that store the holder’s private keys. Generally, digital assets stored in hot wallets are more easily accessible; however,

access to the internet means that the user must maintain effective internet security practices to protect their wallet. On the

other hand, the downside to using cold wallets is they are not as easily accessible and are typically only used for the long-

term storage of digital assets.

Often wallets have cumbersome interfaces, better suited to people who are very familiar with coding and computer

processing than to consumers who want a straightforward, easy-to-use interface. For example, the private key that our users

must enter to utilize the digital assets in their wallets on the Exodus Platform is an alphanumeric code with hundreds of

digits, which, if lost, renders the assets in the wallets lost. In addition, many other wallets do not cover a sufficiently wide

variety of digital assets, thereby requiring customers to maintain different wallets for different digital assets. Wallets that

provide services like exchanging one digital asset for another can often be challenging to use. More importantly, many of

these wallets are operated by centralized exchanges, where the company managing the wallet’s technology also controls the

private keys. This means the wallet provider ultimately has control over the digital assets linked to those keys.

In recent years, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and U.S. state securities regulators have stated that

certain digital assets or digital asset products may be classified as securities under U.S. federal and state securities laws.

Given the fact-intensive nature of the “security” analysis under the applicable legal standard, and absent any federal

legislation providing further legal clarity, there is a lack of certainty with respect to whether a particular digital asset,

product, or service will be deemed to be a security by the SEC or by U.S. federal or state courts. A number of enforcement

actions and civil lawsuits have been brought in the past against developers, sponsors and issuers of digital assets and digital

asset products, as well as against trading platforms that support digital assets, in which the SEC argued that certain digital

assets are securities, including certain digital assets supported by the Exodus Platform at that time. Also, several foreign

governments have issued similar warnings cautioning that certain digital assets, including certain digital assets supported

by the Exodus Platform, may be deemed to be securities under the laws of their respective jurisdictions. For more

information regarding the regulatory environment of our industry, see “Item 1. Business – Regulatory Environment.” See

also “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Regulation – Certain digital assets traded using third-party services

integrated within our platform or other programs could be viewed as “securities” for purposes of federal or state regulations

and could subject us to regulatory scrutiny, inquiries, investigations, fines and other penalties.”

Our Products and Services

Exodus has developed proprietary software, the Exodus Platform. Since the creation of the Exodus Platform, it has been

downloaded over 19.2 million times as of December 31, 2025 and was downloaded approximately 3.5 million times during

2025. We offer all versions of the Exodus Platform to users as a free download. The Exodus Platform currently supports

7

Table of contents

fungible cryptocurrency assets ledgered on public blockchains as well as non-fungible tokens ledgered on public

blockchains. On desktop and mobile devices alike, Exodus delivers a simple, elegant, and intuitive experience where users

can send, receive and store over 700,000 digital assets. Users can also access the services offered and performed by our

API Providers that allow users to engage in services such as digital asset exchanging, fiat onboarding and staking products

for over 30,000 digital assets. When signing up for an account on the Exodus Platform, among other requirements, users

must certify that they are at least 18 years of age (if a natural person), agree to our Terms of Service, and have read our

privacy policy.

Products Offered Directly on the Exodus Platform

The products we offer directly through the Exodus Platform include storing, sending, and receiving digital assets through

the wallet functionality. Our users are able to send digital assets by inputting a public blockchain address and an amount to

transfer and are able to receive digital assets by providing the sending party with the users’ own public blockchain address.

The Company’s involvement in these transfers is generally limited to providing a visual interface to access the blockchain.

We do not take possession of the user’s assets and have no access to the user’s public or private keys. Instead, we apply a

streamlined interface to the services provided by third-party API Providers. Exodus and our wholly-owned Swiss

subsidiary, Proper Trust AG, enter into API agreements with these third-party providers that serve both U.S. and non-U.S.

users. We have five international subsidiaries: Proper Trust AG, XO Italia S.R.L., Osmium Canada LTD, Osmium Europe

B.V. and Osmium AU PTY LTD. Osmium Europe B.V. handles all European fiat onboarding agreements.

We also provide consulting services, such as wallet design, and other services, such as Web3 browser functionality and

access to decentralized applications. See "Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Revenue Recognition" to

our consolidated financial statements herein.

The Exodus Platform supports network forks on a per-fork basis and only where it makes sense for our business and our

users to do so. When determining whether the Exodus Platform will support a network fork, we evaluate various metrics,

including feedback from our users and our API Providers, social engagement, and the projected overall market demand for

the fork. Exodus informs users as soon as practical after it becomes aware of future supported forks through knowledge

base articles and/or messaging within the Exodus Platform itself. In the event Exodus does not support a fork, a user can

access the unsupported fork by using a competitor’s wallet platform that does support the fork by importing their private

key or mnemonic seed phrase into that competitor’s wallet. Exodus does not currently inform users of airdrops and

currently has no plans to do so in the foreseeable future.

Pricing Information Offered Directly on the Exodus Platform

The Exodus Platform provides users with information on digital asset prices and other relevant market data, such as news

articles and historical pricing where available. This information is independent from the actual digital asset price presented

by third-party API Providers in connection with a potential transaction. Exodus does not charge users to access this pricing

information, which comes from two industry-leading pricing services: CoinMarketCap, the primary provider, and

CoinGecko, the secondary provider. Exodus uses a third pricing service, CryptoCompare, as an additional verification

source but does not display pricing information from CryptoCompare. The Exodus Platform defaults to displaying digital

asset prices using the primary provider’s pricing information. The Exodus Platform is designed to only use the secondary

provider’s price in place of the primary provider’s price if there is a material variance between the primary and secondary

providers’ prices, and certain other conditions are met. A material variance exists if the primary provider’s price differs by

15% or more from the secondary provider. To check for material variances, the Company uses an algorithm to compare the

primary and secondary providers' prices for each digital asset every 60 seconds. If there is no material variance between the

primary and secondary providers’ prices, the Exodus Platform will display the primary provider’s price. If there is a

material variance between the primary and secondary providers’ prices, the Exodus Platform will display the secondary

provider’s price, but only after the algorithm confirms no material variance (15%) exists between the secondary provider’s

price and the price provided by the additional verification source, CryptoCompare. In addition to checking for material

variances between two providers, the Exodus Platform checks for widespread variances that may occur, for example, due to

a widespread outage, or 2%, across multiple service providers. A widespread variance is considered to exist if the variance

in price across the primary and secondary providers and the additional verification source exists. In this case, the Exodus

Platform will continue to show the primary provider’s most recently available price before the 2% variance occurred and

until such 2% variance no longer exists, with the algorithm checking every 60 seconds.

This comparison process is designed to avoid inaccurate data from a single source. We believe that offering pricing

services on the Exodus Platform simplifies the user experience as compared to other wallets that do not provide a pricing

8

Table of contents

service. However, because the pricing information on the Exodus Platform is made available to any user, users may use the

Exodus Platform solely for this pricing information and may not otherwise engage in transactions with our third-party API

Providers.

\Services Offered and Performed by Our API Providers

We serve third-party API Providers by integrating their services such as digital asset exchanging, fiat onboarding, staking

products and sending and receiving functionality into the Exodus Platform through an API agreement. Our business is

dependent on the successful integration of these third-party API Providers as the majority of our revenue is earned by

charging API Providers fees for services offered to our users. For services offered by API Providers to persons located in

the United States, we charge fees based on a volume-based, tiered monthly subscription structure payable to us in arrears

once a month. For services offered by API Providers to persons located outside the United States, we generally utilize a

transaction-based structure to charge API Providers a percentage of the underlying value of the digital asset transaction. For

services provided by API Providers to customers located in the United States, we generally utilize a subscription-based

pricing model.

While we do not engage in trading of digital assets on our platform or otherwise engage in the business of effecting

transactions in securities for the account of others on our platform, we receive compensation from the API Providers that

have connected to our Exchange Aggregator. It is possible that a receipt of compensation based on the percentage of digital

assets exchanged could be deemed to be the receipt of transaction-based fees for facilitating transactions in unregistered

securities, and that we could be found to be facilitating transactions in unregistered securities or otherwise violating federal

and state securities laws, which could have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Historically, approximately 25% of our volume has been located in the U.S. at any given time. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors

– Risks Related to Regulation – Regardless of the revenue structure for our Exchange Aggregator, we could be deemed a

broker-dealer because certain digital assets on the Exodus Platform may be deemed to be securities, and we would likely

experience difficulty in complying with the broker-dealer financial responsibility rules.”

Exodus or its subsidiaries maintains agreements with each individual API Provider. Both the transaction-based and

subscription-based API agreements that generate substantially all of our total revenue have indefinite terms and may be

terminated by us or the counterparty exchange at any time, and without damages, generally upon 30 to 60 days’ prior

written notice, depending on API provider. A limited number of legacy API agreements, which were entered into more

than 18 months ago, have similar termination provisions but contain a shorter termination notice period, e.g., seven days.

Either party may also immediately terminate the agreement in the event of a breach of law or uncured breach of contract,

including by, negligence, recklessness, or willful or fraudulent misconduct by, or the bankruptcy of the other party, or if the

API integration becomes prohibited by applicable law, regulation, rule or directive. In the event of such termination, our

agreements with transaction-based providers mandate that the API Provider pay all outstanding fees for completed services.

The form of API agreements (both the form U.S. agreement and the form international agreement) are attached as exhibits

to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(1)API Providers are subject to legal and regulatory restrictions depending on the laws of the jurisdictions in which they operate. Services offered by API Providers may vary

by jurisdiction, including variances in the number and type of services offered by API Providers to persons located outside of the U.S. as compared to services offered to

persons located within the U.S. For example, MoonPay offers Uniswap (UNI) to its non-U.S. customers but does not offer UNI in the United States. In addition, even within

the United States, services offered by API Providers may vary from state to state depending on applicable law. We have no control over an API Provider’s decision to

provide certain services in a specific jurisdiction or over an API Provider’s decision to discontinue providing services in any jurisdiction.

The principal services offered and performed by our API Providers are described below.

Exchange Aggregation—The Exodus Platform is accessible through our desktop, browser extension, and mobile platforms

where users may access the services that are offered and performed by our API Providers that allow users to engage in

digital asset exchanges for over 30,000 digital assets without having to access centralized exchanges or trade across

multiple order books, depending on API Provider, availability and jurisdiction.

10

Table of contents

Exodus’ API Providers provide the connection with the exchanges, and the Exchange Aggregator essentially eliminates the

interim step of converting the digital asset to Bitcoin (or other intermediate digital asset). By removing this interim step, the

Exchange Aggregator is designed to increase the likelihood that users will receive the best pricing, liquidity and order

fulfillment time as compared to users that manually search across multiple third-party API Providers, which are typically

non-U.S. third-party exchanges and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) platforms that use blockchain technology and

cryptocurrency to manage financial transactions through peer-to-peer relationships instead of centralized institutions. For

example, without the Exchange Aggregator, if a user seeks to swap Bitcoin for Ether on a centralized exchange, a user may

be required to first swap Bitcoin for USDC and then swap USDC for Ether. During this two-step process, it may be more

likely that pricing, liquidity and order fulfillment time may fluctuate across multiple third-party API Providers. The

Exchange Aggregator essentially eliminates this interim step and enables users to swap/exchange one supported digital

asset (e.g., Bitcoin) for another (e.g., Ether).

The API Provider selected for each swap request is determined by an algorithm developed by Exodus, but Exodus has

neither control nor discretion over any specific user transaction and users are free to consummate digital asset transactions

away from the Exodus Platform. The algorithm designed to identify which API Providers support the asset pair (not every

API Provider offers services for all 30,000 digital assets) and which API Provider provides the best pricing. The user that

requests the Exchange Aggregator to provide proposed trade pricing information receives a message specifying how much

of the swapped asset they will receive in exchange for the user’s original digital asset, and the fees to be charged by the

API Provider. Users may utilize the digital asset pricing information independently offered on the Exodus Platform to

compare an API Provider’s proposed trade pricing information the user receives through the Exchange Aggregator. Once a

user “clicks” on the Exchange Aggregator to connect with an API Provider exchange that is algorithmically selected to

complete the desired swap, Exodus has no further involvement or role in the ultimate transactions that occur between users

and API Providers. Moreover, Exodus does not know, or independently conduct diligence with respect to, the third parties

with which our API Providers contract, including the exchanges and market makers with which our API Provider’s

contract to support the services they provide to their users (including any users from the Exodus Platform), and Exodus

does not know the jurisdictions in which those third parties operate. As a result, we cannot assure users as to the processes

and procedures our API Providers use to engage such third parties, which exposes Exodus Platform’s users to risk that such

third parties may fail to operate as reasonably expected. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Business – We

do not conduct diligence with respect to the exchanges, market makers and other third parties our API Providers may

contract with to conduct the services they provide to our users.”

Once the user agrees to the pricing, the API Provider will process a user’s order (usually in under an hour), the user will

transfer its digital assets to the API Provider in accordance with the API Provider’s terms of service and internal operations

and the API Provider will deliver the exact amount of the new digital asset to the user’s Exodus Wallet minus the API

Provider’s fees. The API Providers’ fees are determined solely by each API Provider and are inclusive of the costs

associated with transferring digital assets from the user’s wallet to the API Provider. The Exchange Aggregator searches

for the best pricing (inclusive of the API Provider’s fee), liquidity and order fulfillment time and passes through the pricing

information to the user. The Exchange Aggregator does not support fiat currencies, and the Exchange Aggregator will not

enable the exchange of fiat currency for digital assets or the exchange of digital assets for fiat currencies. The Exchange

Aggregator does not support NFT exchanges. For a digital asset to be supported by the Exchange Aggregator, pricing must

be available. An updated list of Exodus’ API Providers is available within the terms of service located on Exodus’ website.

Since the creation of the Exodus Platform, our users have used our API Providers’ services to swap $24.9 billion of digital

assets as of December 31, 2025. During 2025, our users used our API Providers’ services to swap $6.9 billion of digital

assets. See “Note 3 - Revenue Recognition” to our consolidated financial statements included in this report for more

information on the Company’s revenues disaggregated by geography, based on the addresses of the Company’s API

Providers.

Fiat on and off-ramps—Fiat on-ramps, powered by API Providers, such as Ramp network, facilitate an exchange for users

to buy digital assets with fiat currency through bank transfer, credit or debit card and Apple Pay. Where available, users

can access these services to use 33 different fiat currencies, including major currencies such as the U.S. dollar, Euro, and

British pound sterling, to buy digital assets. Through our API Providers, users can sell digital assets for fiat currency and

transfer such currency to their bank account utilizing the off-ramp, which is currently powered by API Providers such as

MoonPay, Coinme, and Sardine. Users can exchange U.S. dollar, Euro, and British Pound Sterling for digital assets via

MoonPay where available.

The Company is not responsible for the fulfillment of any transactions between the user and an API Provider, the

availability of specific digital assets or fiat currencies, or the pricing related to any transaction between the user and an API

11

Table of contents

Provider. The Exodus interface uses information supplied directly by our API Providers to display users with the fiat

currencies they may use to purchase supported digital assets and the digital assets that users may exchange for supported

fiat currencies. Users can use the Exodus Platform to preview a desired fiat on and off-ramp transaction by entering the

specific amount of fiat currency they wish to use to purchase the desired digital assets, or the amount of a digital asset they

wish to exchange for their desired fiat currency. Our API Providers make decisions as to which digital assets and fiat

currencies they support and, as a result, our users’ ability to transact in a particular fiat currency or digital assets, as the

case may be, depends on whether one or more API Providers supports a particular digital asset or fiat currency. Further,

digital assets and fiat currencies offered by API Providers are subject to change, and previously supported digital assets or

fiat currencies may become unavailable to users.

When a user desires to proceed with the purchase of digital assets with, or the exchange of digital assets for fiat currency,

the Exodus interface connects the user with our third-party API Providers to carry out the transaction. The user leaves the

Exodus Platform and is sent to the API Provider’s platform. To effectuate a transaction, a user must have an established

account with the applicable API Provider, including completing the specific API Provider’s Know Your Customer

("KYC") process, see “Item 1. Business – Know Your Customer and Know Your Business Programs – KYB Program For

API Providers and Vendors.”

If the user is selling digital assets for fiat currency:

(1)Once the user establishes an account with the API Provider, including providing the relevant banking

information, the user may then confirm the fiat currency and digital assets it desires to transact in and the API

Provider provides the user with proposed pricing information to effectuate the exchange. API Provider pricing

information, including the fees charged to users for services, are determined by the API Provider on a

transaction-by-transaction basis and may be subject to change based on the contractual terms between the user

and API Provider. As a general matter, the API Provider will present the user with a total price to consummate

the transaction. That total price provided to the user will generally include an overview of the following

individual amounts: (a) the amount of the digital asset to be sold; (b) the total amount of fiat currency to be

received upon the sale of the specified digital assets; (c) the fiat currency to digital asset exchange rate; and (d)

any applicable fees associated with the transaction, including the fees associated with the cost of transferring

such digital assets.

(2)The user then decides if they want to fulfill the order.

(3)If the user is exchanging digital assets for fiat currency, the API Provider returns an address where the digital

assets should be sent, along with the amount of digital assets the user must send. The user signs a transaction that

sends their digital assets to the API Provider, which are stored on the relevant blockchain, initiating the exchange

of the digital asset for fiat currency.

(4)The API Provider will deposit the fiat currency into the bank account provided by the user.

If the user is buying digital assets with fiat currency:

(1)Once the user establishes an account with the API Provider, including providing the relevant banking

information, the user may then confirm the fiat currency and digital assets it desires to transact in and the API

Provider provides the user with proposed pricing information to effectuate the exchange. Pricing information,

including the fees charged for its services, are determined by the API Provider and may be subject to change

based on the contractual terms between the user and API Provider. As a general matter, the total price provided

to and paid by the user will generally include an overview of the following individual amounts: (a) the digital

asset to fiat currency exchange rate; (b) the amount of digital assets to be received upon purchase with the

corresponding fiat currency; and (c) any applicable fees associated with the transaction, including any fees

associated with the cost of transferring digital assets.

(2)The user then decides if they want to fulfill the order.

(3)If the user is exchanging fiat currency for digital assets, the API Provider receives the deposit address, or public

key, from the user through the API for the specific digital asset the user desires to purchase (e.g., ETH).

(4)The API Provider initiates the authorized transfer of fiat currency from the bank account provided by the user.

Once the fiat payment is complete, the API Provider sends the digital assets to the user’s Exodus wallet.

Staking—Staking allows users to “stake” supported digital assets held in their Exodus wallets by participating in

blockchain validation through a third-party API Provider, Everstake. Everstake is a self-custodial staking platform, which

12

Table of contents

means it is designed to allow users to maintain possession over their assets while staking and the terms of the staking

products are only the terms immutable to the specific blockchain. Users can instruct Everstake to unstake most supported

digital assets at any time. However, users can only access or withdraw staked digital assets once the unstaking period is

complete. The unstaking period refers to the time period between the initial unstaking instruction and the point in time

when digital assets become available to transfer or sell following an instruction to unstake. This varies depending on the

specific blockchain. Customers may not be eligible to earn staking rewards during the unstaking period. For example, in

accordance with the parameters of the Cosmos ("ATOM") blockchain, users staking ATOM are required to wait 21 days

from the unstaking instruction date before they can access or withdraw their ATOM coins. Staking for the following assets

is available through Everstake: Ethereum, Solana, Tezos, Cardano, Aptos, Polygon, Cosmos, Kava ("KAVA"), Injective

("INJ"), Axelar, and Osmosis ("OSMO"). Exodus receives a monthly subscription fee from Everstake. In accordance with

the parameters of both the Ontology and VeChain blockchains, staking occurs on-chain without any involvement from

Exodus or Everstake, and as a result, we do not receive any fees when users stake their digital assets on the Ontology and

VeChain blockchain. Users who hold Algorand must stake through the Algorand governance portal, and we do not receive

any fees for any digital assets staked through the Algorand governance portal.

Auto restaking is a feature that allows users to pre-authorize staking of rewards earned on assets without manually claiming

and restaking their rewards. Auto restaking on the Everstake platform is available for the following digital assets: ATOM,

KAVA, INJ and OSMO. Using ATOM as an example, if a user enables auto restaking, its earned ATOM rewards will

automatically be staked when its wallet has at least 0.25 ATOM in unclaimed rewards without manually claiming and

restaking its rewards. If a user has more than 0.25 ATOM in unclaimed rewards in its wallet, they will automatically be

staked. Because this restaking is a pre-authorization of blockchain transactions in accordance with the staking protocols of

the blockchain, the user will incur standard blockchain network fees, but there are no fees charged by Everstake or Exodus

in connection with this pre-authorization. While auto restaking is active, users cannot manually claim rewards, but if users

prefer to manage their ATOM rewards manually, they can disable auto restaking at any time. Auto restaking will expire

after 1 year, at which point users will be prompted to enable it again.

Specific Blockchain Design Elements for Proof of Stake Digital Assets
Digital Asset		Time Period Between Unstaking Instruction and Completion of Unstaking Period, According to the Rules of the Underlying Blockchain
Ether		Approximately 7-21 Calendar Days
Solana		Approximately 2-4 Calendar Days
Tezos		Instant
Cardano		Instant
Aptos		Up to 30 Calendar Days
Polygon		Approximately 3-4 Calendar Days
Cosmos		21 Calendar Days
Kava		21 Calendar Days
Injective		21 Calendar Days
Axelar		Up to 7 Calendar Days
Osmosis(1)		14 Calendar Days
Ontology(2)		Between 16 hours and 41 Calendar Days
VeChain(3)		N/A Unstaking Not Required
Algorand(4)		N/A Unstaking Not Required

(1)In 2025, Osmosis ceased its staking protocols.

(2)In 2025, Ontology ceased its staking protocols.

(3)In accordance with the parameters of the VeChain blockchains, digital asset “staking” happens passively, and staking rewards are automatically distributed to all users of

VET so long as the user’s wallet supports VET. The Exodus wallet supports VET. In light of VET’s blockchain protocol, VET holders are not required to stake or unstake

these digital assets.

(4)Algorand staking requires participation in the Algorand community governance process. To receive staking rewards pursuant to this process, users must participate in the

governance process for at least three months, but users retain full access to their Algorand during this time period.

13

Table of contents

According to the design of the underlying network staking protocols, the holder determines the amount of digital assets to

stake, retains full control and ownership of the digital assets, and can request to unstake them as described above. Exodus

does not have any contact with, control over, or ability to take control of any digital assets that a user stakes. In general, the

risks to users who utilize the staking products offered on the Everstake platform are limited to the risks involved with

cryptocurrency and can depend on the specific blockchain. For example, the 21-calendar-day waiting requirement to

unstake Cosmos can open users to risks in terms of penalties, or “slashing,” if the relevant activities are not performed

correctly (e.g., if the staker, delegator, or baker acts maliciously on the network, “double signs” any transactions or

experience extended downtimes) and market volatility (e.g., a user may lose money if the value of Cosmos drops while its

Cosmos is staked or during the period following an unstaking instruction but prior to completion of the unstaking), which

is an inherent risk to staking, including staking on the Cosmos blockchain.

Our Strategy

When developing additional wallet capabilities, the Company conducts product-market, financial, and legal analysis of the

proposed feature, including an assessment of the proposed feature’s compliance with the laws, rules, and regulations in the

jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The Company then moves to assessing the technical feasibility of

implementing the proposed feature into the Exodus Platform. The material cost of developing additional wallet capabilities

is primarily labor expenses, and such expenses are funded by the Company’s operations. At this time, the Company has no

plans to expand the breadth of asset classes supported within the Exodus Platform or otherwise develop additional wallet

capabilities.

Elevate Technology—We are committed to investing in product development that enhances functionality of the Exodus

Platform. Our regular software updates enable us to respond to user evaluations of our products on a rapid timetable. We

believe that, over time, traditional financial assets, services and experiences will migrate to using blockchain technology

and we are building for that eventuality. We also believe that people and entities will want the flexibility to keep their

wealth as digital assets, particularly Bitcoin, Ether and stablecoins, instead of only in fiat currencies. Exodus’ API

Providers provide the connection with the exchanges, and because the Exchange Aggregator essentially eliminates the

interim step of having to first convert the digital asset proposed for a transaction to Bitcoin (or other intermediate digital

asset), the Exodus Platform is asset agnostic, meaning it can operate irrespective of the type of digital asset as opposed to

asset or blockchain specific platforms that limit users to a particular asset or blockchain. In this sense, the Exchange

Aggregator is asset agnostic, in an information technology context, because it connects with an API Provider exchange that

is algorithmically selected to complete the desired swap function without requiring an intermediate digital asset. The

Exchange Aggregator allows users to swap one digital asset for another without having to send digital assets to and from

centralized exchanges or trade across multiple order books. For example, if a customer wants to swap ETH for Tether using

one of Exodus’ API Providers, this trade can be easily executed – see "Item 1. Business – Our Products and Services –

Exchange Aggregation." This Exchange Aggregator process differs compared to a centralized exchange where a user may

have to trade ETH for Bitcoin and then Bitcoin for Tether. The Company currently supports fungible cryptocurrency assets

ledgered on public blockchains as well as non-fungible tokens ledgered on public blockchains.

Grow the Core—We are focused on growing the number of services provided on our platform by targeting the integration

of diverse API Providers into the Exodus Platform. In addition, we also are working to grow the depth of API Providers

who contribute similar services within the Exodus Platform. This is expected to provide several benefits including, but not

limited to:

•Expanded geographic coverage. Limitations of regulatory and licensing requirements in certain jurisdictions may

have less impact on our user experience;

•Increased service uptime. Individual API Providers can experience downtime which directly impacts their ability

to provide services to our users. Having multiple API Providers may allow for redundancy and improved uptime;

and

•More competition among API Providers. API Providers compete to provide the best offering, often translating to

the best cost or lowest price, for our users.

Diversify our products and services—The integration of third-party apps allows us to diversify our user base, expand our

product offerings and maintain more than one source of revenue. Where permitted, each new app provides us with an

opportunity to monetize our platform through commissions and fees paid by API Providers or other means. When

determining whether to integrate an app into our platform, one of our top priorities is a consistent, high-quality user

experience by maintaining the Exodus interface and the ease of use that our users expect from Exodus products. We believe

14

Table of contents

that apps will be essential in bringing digital assets into mainstream use; exposing our user base to digital asset apps

directly within their wallet will increase engagement and encourage users to continue using our products.

Grow Business-to-Business Partnerships—We generate revenue through our XO Swap product offering by delivering our

Exchange Aggregator technology to partner companies. In addition, we launched our Passkeys Wallet product offering in

July 2024 to enhance our onboarding capabilities and integration potential. We intend to develop more product offerings

and to continue to invest in our Passkeys technology to grow our business-to-business partnerships. See the section titled

“Business-to-Business Partnerships” in Part II, Item 7 of this report for additional information.

Expanding our services via acquisitions—We may grow our business by acquiring companies that complement our

existing operations and strategic objectives. These acquisitions could include businesses that allow us to elevate

technology, grow the core of our business, diversify our products and services, or gain access to valuable customer bases.

The Company will evaluate each opportunity on a case-by-case basis to ensure it meets our financial and strategic criteria.

Sales and Marketing

Historically, we have made minimal use of traditional marketing and advertising platforms but instead have chosen to

create high-quality content on our YouTube channel. This content highlights digital assets accessible on the Exodus

Platform and is designed to give users access to dynamic content that anticipates their questions, feeds their curiosities, and

gives them our honest assessment of these digital assets. Our effort to deliver the best user experience and support for

digital assets has led to the majority of our user acquisitions coming from word-of-mouth. During the year ended December

31, 2025, we increased spending on website advertisements targeted at digital asset focused spaces and on online platforms,

such as the App Store, and marketing agency expenses. We continue to evaluate our marketing strategy, and in the future,

may decide to refocus the current strategy to a more competitive approach, which would be expected to further increase

marketing-related expenses.

Competitive Landscape

We pioneered and continue to lead the market for self-custodial solutions for managing digital assets. We believe that we

provide the most comprehensive self-custodial solution, offering mobile and desktop products, the option to connect to a

hardware wallet, a significant range of supported digital assets, as well as functions such as our Exchange Aggregator and

other apps. Since our founding, our competition has primarily been custodial solutions that offer a tangential self-custodial

product, such as the exchanges supported by well-known companies like Coinbase. These exchanges tend to have greater

name recognition and, as people are familiar with custodial products used in the traditional banking system, people may

believe that the products they offer are more secure and are easier to use than stand-alone, self-custodial products.

We believe that due to security and technical risks associated with centralized or custodial services, digital asset holders

will continue to move towards stand-alone self-custodial solutions. We also believe that the recent collapse of certain large

custodial digital asset companies and the resultant suspension of withdrawals validates the benefits of self-custodial

solutions.

Within the market for self-custodial wallet solutions, there are other companies that actively compete with us, offering

various combinations of the features available on our platform. While leading exchanges, which have significant resources

and brand power, have created self-custodial wallets, their focus continues to be on centralized digital asset products.

However, our market is relatively new, and our competitors have adapted and may continue to adapt their platforms to

incorporate many of our features and designs, as well as additional features or solutions.

Our current and potential competitors include a number of different types of companies, including:

•Exchanges that specialize in digital assets and offer a self-custodial wallet solution;

•Digital asset wallets;

•Banks, non-depository trust companies and other chartered financial institutions that offer digital asset custody

services; and

•Exchanges or other FinTech companies with substantial infrastructure and market share that decide to and may

be legally able to offer digital assets.

We believe that the principle competitive factors in our market are:

•platform features, quality, functionality and design;

15

Table of contents

•product pricing;

•breadth of features offered by a platform;

•quality of user support;

•security and trust;

•brand awareness and reputation;

•ease of adoption and use;

•accessibility of platform on multiple devices;

•user acquisition costs; and

•range of supported digital assets.

We believe Exodus compares favorably with our competitors on the basis of these factors. Based on recent market data, we

expect demand for self-custodial solutions to continue to rise and believe that we are well-positioned to take advantage of

this market opportunity.

Intellectual Property

Our success depends in part upon our ability to protect and use our core technology and intellectual property rights. We

rely on a combination of copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, know-how, contractual provisions and confidentiality

procedures to protect our intellectual property rights. We have registered “Exodus” as a trademark in the United States and

other jurisdictions and we have filed other trademark applications to protect our logo in the United States and several

international jurisdictions. We are also the registered holder of a variety of domestic and international domain names that

include “Exodus”—including, most importantly, “exodus.com.”

In addition to the protection provided by our intellectual property rights, we enter into proprietary information and

invention assignment agreements or similar agreements with our team members, consultants and contractors. We may also

seek to patent our technology in the future.

Digital Asset and Stablecoin Holdings

We hold digital asset and stablecoin holdings for our own account. As of December 31, 2025, a significant portion of

Exodus’ treasury consisted of digital assets and stablecoin holdings held for our own account. The following is a

breakdown of our holdings as of December 31, 2025 (in units):

Wallet		Bitcoin(1)		Ether(1)		USDC(1)		DLLR(1)		Solana(1)		Other(1)
Self-Custody		547		3		33,620		100,401		12,473		172,085,389
Custodial		1,157		1,895		188,360		-		-		3,827
Total		1,704		1,898		221,980		100,401		12,473		172,089,216

(1)Units refer to the number of tokens held. For the fair value of the digital asset as of December 31, 2025, see “Note 6 - Intangible Assets” to our

consolidated financial statements included in this report.

For those digital assets held on an exchange, we held such assets on Coinbase, Circle, and other similar custodial solutions

as of December 31, 2025. As a result, if these assets are lost or stolen, we may suffer a loss with respect to our digital asset

holdings, and we may not be able to recover any of our carried value in these digital asset holdings. See “Item 1A. Risk

Factors – Risks Related to Our Business – Our holdings of digital assets expose us to exchange, security, valuation and

liquidity risks, which could negatively affect us.” Our future earnings and cash flows will be impacted if we choose to

monetize our digital assets and the variability of our earnings on these transactions will be dependent on the future fair

value of such digital assets.

As of December 31, 2025, we held 14% of wallets and their associated keys in cold wallets. We do not have a policy

regarding the percentage of private keys we hold in cold wallets, but we evaluate the location of our digital asset holdings

on a case-by-case basis based on expected time to liquidity, the type of digital asset and custodial and non-custodial options

available and the security options surrounding each.

16

Table of contents

For those assets held self-custodially, Exodus maintains a number of security measures to manage and protect private keys,

including, but not limited to, the use of cold wallets, multi-signature protocols, access limited to select senior executives

and finance personnel, and various physical safeguards such as geographic dispersion throughout North America of private

keys. Exodus does not maintain insurance that covers its digital assets, whether held on Exchange or held self-custodially,

in the case of loss or fraud. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Business – If we are unable to access our

private keys or if we experience a hack or other data loss relating to our ability to access any of our digital assets, it could

cause regulatory scrutiny, reputational harm and other losses.”

Exodus receives its revenues primarily in Bitcoin and USDC but accepts a wide range of digital assets and USD. Network

fees and other expenses, such as gas fees, related to the transfer of the digital assets from the API to the self-custody wallets

are typically paid by the sender. Exodus records digital assets at their fair value at the time they are received. Exodus

monitors the allocation between digital assets and fiat-based holdings and may rebalance its treasury from time to time

based on market conditions, liquidity needs, and its business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Due

to fluctuations in digital asset prices, our heavy use of Bitcoin in our receivables as well as for payment of certain expenses

such as salaries, and corporate income tax considerations, we from time to time rebalance based on market conditions and

our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Fiat-based holdings were impacted by certain

acquisition related activity during 2025 including the loan receivable from W3C Corp.  See “Note 5 - Loan Receivable,

Net” to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had a 3/97%

and 26/74% split between liquid assets and digital asset holdings, respectively. We assess our holdings, including our splits

between liquid assets and digital assets, on at least a quarterly basis.

The table below shows the fair value of our holdings as of December 31, 2025 and 2024:

(in thousands)	December 31, 2025		December 31, 2024
Cash and cash equivalents	4,938		37,883
USDC	222		12
Treasury bills	—		30,490
Bitcoin	149,164		181,238
Ether	5,633		8,847
Solana	1,552		4,628
Other digital assets	98		1,646
Total treasury	161,607		264,744
Percentage of Holds:
Cash and cash equivalents / treasury bills	3%		26%
USDC and digital assets	97%		74%

Digital assets received as payment, other than Bitcoin, Ether, and Solana, are sold at or within a few days of receipt. Digital

assets sold for fiat are primarily sold using standard business accounts we maintain on Coinbase, Kraken, and LMAX

Digital, with the exception of USDC, which is sold using a standard business account with Circle. We consider the terms of

our contracts with Kraken, Coinbase, LMAX Digital, and Circle to be in accordance with customary industry practice and

accepted forms of such contracts, including with respect to the segregation of our assets from other customers’ assets.

Human Capital Management

As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately 215 full-time equivalents (“FTEs” or “team members”). FTEs include

U.S.-based employees, U.S. expatriate employees and non-U.S. independent contractors who perform services for the

company. Of our FTEs, approximately 150 are located outside the United States in approximately 50 countries located on

six different continents. As of December 31, 2025, other than the United States, Exodus had no more than 10% of its team

members in any one jurisdiction. All team members are paid exclusively in Bitcoin.

References to “employees” refer to U.S.-based employees and U.S. expatriate employees and excludes non-U.S.

independent contractors. The basis for compensation for employees and for FTEs is U.S. dollars and is settled in Bitcoin at

the time of payment. In connection with the compensation of our employees, we make two payments: (1) we reimburse

TriNet, a professional employer organization with which we have entered into a co-employment relationship, in U.S.

dollars for employee expenses associated with payroll and benefits administration and pay TriNet an administrative fee in

17

Table of contents

U.S. dollars for its services; and (2) for our team members, we deposit Bitcoin into the team members’ cryptocurrency

wallet address.

None of our team members are represented by a labor union or covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We have not

experienced any work stoppages, and we consider our relations with our team members to be good.

Uncertainty and Volatility in the Digital Asset Markets

In recent years, there have been well-known digital asset market participants who have declared bankruptcy including

Celsius Network, Voyager Digital Ltd., Three Arrows Capital and FTX. In response to these events, the digital asset

markets, more specifically Bitcoin, have experienced extreme price volatility, resulting in a loss of confidence in

participants of the digital asset ecosystem. These events have also negatively impacted the liquidity of the digital asset

markets as certain entities affiliated with FTX formerly engaged in significant trading activity. The FTX app was available

on the Exodus Platform until it was removed in November 2022. In addition, as of December 31, 2025, Clifton Bay

Investments LLC, formerly known as Alameda Research Ventures LLC, which filed for bankruptcy in November 2022,

owned 17.6% of our Class A common stock. As of December 31, 2025, all associated shares previously held by Clifton

Bay Investment LLC were held with FTX Recovery Trust. Continued price volatility, negative publicity, the lack of

standardized regulation and the closure or temporary shutdown of digital asset exchanges due to business failure, hackers

or malware, government investigations or fraud may further reduce confidence in digital asset exchange networks and

result in a negative impact on our business. It is not possible to predict at this time all of the risks these events may pose to

Exodus, our service providers, our API Providers or on the digital asset industry as a whole.

We have not experienced an inability to recover material assets due to these bankruptcies, nor do we currently use digital

assets as collateral for any loan, margin, rehypothecation, or other similar activities to which we are a party. However, even

if there is no direct material impact on our business due to bankruptcies, we have been and may continue to be indirectly

affected by these events.

To our knowledge, none of our current API Providers have filed for bankruptcy, been decreed insolvent or bankrupt, made

any assignment for the benefit of creditors, been appointed a receiver, experienced excessive redemptions suspended

redemptions or withdrawals of digital assets, had digital assets of their users unaccounted for or experienced material

corporate compliance failures. However, because Exodus offers a self-custodial wallet solution pursuant to which users

possess their digital assets at all times, our users’ exposure to an API Provider experiencing insolvency or bankruptcy

would be limited to the brief period of time during which wallet users are engaged in an active crypto-asset transaction. See

“Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Regulation – Our users may be exposed to an API Provider experiencing

insolvency or bankruptcy, which could adversely impact our business, operating results, and financial condition.”

Regulatory Environment

Our operations expose us to a number of federal, state, local and international laws and regulations, including, but not

limited to, tax, securities, consumer rights, privacy, data protection, cybersecurity and employment matters. These laws and

regulations may have a material impact on our business, address multiple aspects of our operations and may be dependent

on the jurisdiction of operation. While the Company offers the Exodus Platform in all jurisdictions not prohibited by U.S.

or international law, the jurisdictions material to our business for the year ended December 31, 2025 based on (i) the total

dollar value of user transactions with our API Providers were the United States, Great Britain, France, and Germany and

(ii) revenue from our API Providers were the Republic of the Marshall Islands, Hong Kong, the British Virgin Islands, the

Seychelles and Saint Vincent and Grenadines, see “Note 3 - Revenue Recognition” to our consolidated financial statements

included in this report.

The laws and regulations governing our core business as an un-hosted self-custody wallet provider are currently

undeveloped, including the laws and regulations in the jurisdictions material to our business. However, as digital assets,

blockchain technologies and digital asset exchanges continue to expand in popularity and market size, laws and regulations

governing self-custody wallet providers like Exodus may also develop. The laws and regulations (and interpretations

thereof) pertaining to digital assets, blockchain technologies, digital exchanges and generative artificial intelligence (“AI”)

and related technologies are rapidly evolving and increasing in scope. Changes in government regulation of our business

has the potential to materially alter our business practices and our profitability. Depending on the jurisdiction, those

changes may come about through the issuance of new laws and regulations or in the application of existing laws and

regulations by a court, regulatory body or governmental official. For example, in jurisdictions outside of the United States,

the international rules, regulations and laws that may have an impact on our business primarily relate to privacy, data

protection and cybersecurity, such as the European General Data Protection Regulation of April 27, 2016 (Regulation (EU)

18

Table of contents

2016/679) (the “GDPR”) and the GDPR as incorporated into United Kingdom law pursuant to the European Union

(Withdrawal) Act 2018 (the “U.K. GDPR”). Sometimes those changes may have both a retroactive and prospective effect.

This is particularly true when a change is made through the application of existing laws or regulations to new fact patterns.

For instance, in 2023, as part of our internal compliance process through which we monitor and assess changes in

regulations to which we may be subject, we became aware that the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”)

published new rules relating to how digital assets can be marketed to consumers. Specifically, companies seeking to

promote digital assets in the U.K. to retail consumers are required to register with the FCA or have any marketing approved

by an authorized company. However, the Company cannot register with the FCA because it operates a self-custodial wallet,

and the rules are focused on asset custodians. Therefore, in anticipation of these rules taking effect on October 8, 2023, the

Company took steps before the deadline to comply with the new FCA rules by modifying its marketing materials to avoid a

determination by the FCA that it was promoting digital assets.

Even with the steps taken by the Company, and although at the time the Company believed it was in compliance with such

rules, the FCA utilized the broad nature of the new rules to state that the Company is not in compliance with the rules and

placed the Company on its Warning List in November 2023. In April 2024, following months of constructive dialogue with

the FCA, the FCA removed the Company from its Warning List. Had the Company failed to reach an agreement with the

FCA to be removed from the Warning List, it may have had a negative effect on the Company’s financial performance and

operations, and in the future, we could have been subject to a variety of civil, criminal, and administrative fines, penalties,

orders and actions as a result of our business activities.

Moreover, changes in regulation that may seem neutral on the surface may have either more or less impact on us than our

competitors, depending on the circumstances. As another example, we are subject to export control, import and sanctions

laws and regulations, and we have policies and processes in place in connection with such laws and regulations. For

example, under U.S. export control and sanctions laws and regulations, including the U.S. Department of Commerce’s

Export Administration Regulations (“EAR”) and various economic and trade sanctions administered by the U.S.

Department of the Treasury ("USDOT"), Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), our business activities are subject to

various restrictions related to the sale or supply of certain products and services to U.S. embargoed or sanctioned countries,

governments, persons and entities and require authorization for the export of certain encryption items. The Company has

processes in place regarding geo-blocking technology that are designed to block the Exodus Platform’s availability in

jurisdictions subject to U.S. comprehensive sanctions, namely the Crimea region and so-called Donetsk People’s Republic

and Luhansk People’s Republic in Ukraine, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, and Syria. The Company also uses geo-blocking

technology designed to block the availability of API integrations for third-party crypto-to-crypto exchange services in the

states of New York and Washington. In addition, the Company maintains a blacklist that functions to prevent transactions

between third-party APIs and sanctioned cryptocurrency wallet addresses. The Company has also implemented an

automated OFAC sanctions list search in its customer support system, which operates in instances where wallet holders

have provided their names.

To support our efforts to comply with regimes that are or may become applicable to us, we monitor these areas closely and

invest significant resources in our legal, compliance, product, and engineering teams to help evolve our business practices

to comply with the current laws, regulations, and legal standards to which we are subject, as well as to plan and prepare for

changes in interpretations thereof, as well as additional laws, regulations, and legal standards that are introduced in the

future. For example, our internal legal and compliance team has expanded substantially over the past three years.

Securities Laws and Regulations

In recent years, the SEC and U.S. state securities regulators have stated that certain digital assets or digital asset products

may be classified as securities under U.S. federal and state securities laws. Due to the fact-intensive nature of the “security”

analysis under the applicable legal standard, there is a lack of certainty as to whether a particular digital asset, product, or

service will be deemed to be a security by the SEC or by U.S. federal or state courts. While we do not engage in trading of

digital assets for the account of others on our platform or otherwise engage in the business of effecting transactions in

securities for the account of others, we receive compensation from the API Providers that have connected to our Exchange

Aggregator. For services offered by API Providers to persons located in the United States, we charge fees to API Providers

utilizing a volume-based, tiered monthly subscription structure payable to us in arrears once a month. For services offered

by API Providers to persons located outside the United States, we generally utilize a transaction-based structure to charge

API Providers a percentage of the underlying value of the digital asset transaction. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks

Related to Regulation – Regardless of the revenue structure for our Exchange Aggregator, we could be deemed a broker-

dealer because certain digital assets on the Exodus Platform may be deemed to be securities, and we would likely

experience difficulty in complying with the broker-dealer financial responsibility rules.”

19

Table of contents

We have policies and processes in place to determine whether the services that users can obtain from our API Providers

related to the supported digital assets held in users’ Exodus wallets are securities under U.S. federal securities law. These

policies and processes support a risk-based compliance review process and involve members of our legal and compliance

team, as necessary. In certain circumstances, we may consult external counsel to assist in evaluating regulatory matters. In

addition, in our API Provider contracts, we require that API Providers represent that they are in compliance with all U.S.

laws, which would include U.S. federal securities laws. While we do not make determinations as to whether particular

digital assets held in users’ Exodus wallets constitute securities, we maintain a compliance framework intended to address

applicable legal and regulatory requirements in connection with services offered to users in the United States. See “Item 1.

Business – Our Products and Services – Services Offered and Performed By Our API Providers” and “Item 1A. Risk

Factors – Risks Related to Regulation – Certain digital assets traded using third-party services integrated within our

platform or other programs could be viewed as “securities” for purposes of federal or state regulations and could subject us

to regulatory scrutiny, inquiries, investigations, fines and other penalties.”

Know Your Customer ("KYC") and Know Your Business ("KYB") Programs

The Bank Secrecy Act ("BSA") and the implementing regulations issued by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network

("FinCEN") impose anti-money laundering obligations on financial institutions, including money transmitters. Neither the

BSA nor the FinCEN implementing regulations offer any clarity as to whether companies that provide unhosted

cryptocurrency wallets should be characterized as money transmitters. In its May 2019 guidance (the “FinCEN Guidance”),

however, FinCEN said generally, that an unhosted cryptocurrency wallet is software hosted on a person’s device that

allows the person to store and conduct transactions in cryptocurrency and that unhosted wallets are not included within the

definition of money transmitter.

Exodus is an unhosted wallet, as described in the FinCEN Guidance, and does not engage in transfers of funds on behalf of

users. Accordingly, Exodus does not have an obligation to perform, nor to engage a third-party to perform, KYC or Anti-

Money Laundering ("AML") procedures on its users in connection with opening an unhosted wallet on the Exodus

Platform. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Business – Our platform or our API Providers’ platforms may

be exploited to facilitate illegal activity such as fraud, money laundering, gambling, tax evasion, and scams, which could

adversely affect our business.”

OFAC Screening For Users Receiving Gift Cards and USDC Distributions

From time to time, to help maintain our brand and reputation, we distribute gift cards and USDC to users if an issue arises

with the Exodus Platform. Prior to receiving any gift cards or USDC in connection with this brand reputation program, our

legal and compliance team must conduct an OFAC screening to check entities and persons against the denied party lists

maintained by the OFAC.

KYB Program For API Providers and Vendors

The Company conducts KYB diligence with respect to vendors we use and our API Providers. The Company utilizes and

relies on tools from Chainalysis, a blockchain analysis firm, Veriff, an identity verification platform, and

ComplyAdvantage, an entity that performs sanctions and adverse media screenings. We maintain agreements with these

third parties on whom we rely for assistance with our KYB procedures and consider the terms of such agreements to be in

accordance with customary industry practice and accepted forms of such commercial contracts. Before entering into any

new transaction, agreement, or other business relationship with an API Provider or vendor, and on an ongoing basis during

the Company’s relationship with such API provider or vendor, we use in-house and third-party service providers to

perform a KYB analysis on the ultimate beneficial owner of the relevant entity. The procedures for this analysis include,

but are not limited to, screening the actual prospective party to the agreement and also any individuals or entities

beneficially owning more than 25% of the prospective party (and, if appropriate, such party’s crypto-asset network

addresses), against various sanctions lists. In addition to initial and ongoing sanctions screenings, the Company performs

ongoing adverse media screenings on our vendors and API Providers. These screenings locate negative news, including,

but not limited to reports of financial crime, human trafficking, drug trafficking, terrorist financing, fraud, bribery,

corruption, and any other adverse media that could subject us to regulatory or reputational risk. Our internal KYB policy

also outlines various procedures for documenting, reporting and responding to potential violations of applicable sanctions

rules, along with procedures for assessing business relationships with API Providers or vendors that have been the subject

of sanctions violations.

20

Table of contents

Pursuant to the Company’s agreements with our API Providers, the API Providers represent to the Company that they have

AML, KYC and other procedures reasonably designed to prevent their platform from being used to facilitate money

laundering, terrorist financing, and other illicit activities, or to do business in countries or with persons and entities

included on designated country or person lists promulgated by the OFAC and equivalent authorities in other countries. The

Company relies on the representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements of the API Providers contained in the API

agreements (forms of which are attached to this Amended Registration Statement) and, other than the KYB diligence

conducted on our API Providers and absent any perceived or known issue that may warrant an independent verification, the

Company does not independently investigate or verify the assertions and representations made by the API Providers,

including regarding the API Providers representations as to its AML, KYC and other procedures.

Compliance Procedures Related to the Sale, Acquisition and Distribution of Digital Assets For Our Own Account

For the sale or acquisition of digital assets for our own account, such transactions would occur on the Coinbase, Kraken, or

Circle exchanges where we hold digital assets for our own account. For Coinbase, Kraken, and Circle, we must comply

with the customer KYC, onboarding and periodic review processes for corporate customers.

We also receive digital assets as payment. Digital assets received as payment, other than Bitcoin, Ether, and Solana, are

typically sold at or within a few days of receipt. Digital assets sold for fiat are primarily sold using standard business

accounts we maintain on the Coinbase and Kraken exchanges with the exception of USDC which is sold using a standard

business account with Circle. We consider the terms of our contracts with Kraken, Coinbase, and Circle to be in accordance

with customary industry practice and accepted forms of such contracts, including with respect to the segregation of our

assets from other customers assets and the policies and procedures such exchanges have in place regarding AML, KYC and

other procedures.

Regarding the distribution of digital assets from our own account, we use Bitcoin and other digital assets for payment of

certain expenses such as salaries or payments to third-party vendors. Prior to receiving Bitcoin for payment, third-party

vendors must have completed the KYB diligence process. From time to time, to help maintain our brand and reputation, we

also may distribute digital assets to users if an issue arises with the Exodus Platform.

The complexity and evolving nature of our business and the significant uncertainty surrounding the regulation of the digital

asset economy requires us to exercise our judgment as to whether certain laws, rules and regulations apply to us, and it is

possible that regulators may disagree with our conclusions. We generally believe that our business, as discussed in this

Annual Report on Form 10-K, is compliant with these regulations, but in certain cases, there may be uncertainty related to

that conclusion. For additional discussion, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Regulation,” which we

incorporate by reference here.

contingencies discussed below may have occurred in the past, but the disclosures below are not representations as to

whether or not the factors, events or contingencies have occurred in the past, and instead reflect our beliefs and opinions as

to the factors, events, or contingencies that could materially and adversely affect us in the future.

Summary of Risk Factors

Risks Related to Our Business

•Our profitability is dependent on our ability to attract, maintain and grow our user base, as well as maintaining

our brand or reputation. We may not grow in line with historical rates.

•Our success depends on the success of our third-party service providers, and disruptions in our agreements with

these providers may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

•In the event of errors, misconduct, negligence, or failures by our management team, our employees or

contractors, or third-party service providers, our business may be adversely impacted.

•Our business could be negatively impacted by cybersecurity threats and other disruptions.

•The third-party platforms on which users swap digital assets may be unregulated or may not be in compliance,

and, therefore, may be more exposed to fraud and security breaches than established, regulated exchanges.

•Operational problems or failures by digital asset-related businesses and fluctuations in digital asset prices may

reduce confidence in these venues or in digital assets generally.

•Digital asset exchanges may be exposed to front-running, wash trading or other manipulative practices.

•Sending and receiving digital assets from a user’s Exodus wallet involve risks, which could result in loss of a

user’s assets, which are not insured. We could thus be adversely affected if users blame the Exodus Platform.

•If we are unable to access our private keys or if we experience a hack or other data loss relating to our ability to

access any of our digital assets, it could cause regulatory scrutiny, reputational harm and financial losses.

•Some of our technology incorporates or utilizes software released under the terms of “open source” licenses,

which could subject us to possible litigation and be used by competitors.

•Disputes with our users and third parties could be costly, time-consuming and harm our business and reputation.

•We face intense and increasing competition, and may not be able keep pace with technological developments that

are attractive to our current and prospective users, which could adversely affect us.

•If we fail to manage our growth, it could harm our business operations, corporate culture, and competitiveness.

•We may be unable to raise additional capital needed to grow our business.

•We periodically pursue strategic transactions, which could be difficult to identify and implement, and could

disrupt our business or change our business profile significantly.

•Our holdings of digital assets, including the markets for Bitcoin, Tether, Ether and USDC, could expose us to

exchange, security, valuation and liquidity risks, which could negatively affect us.

•Staking poses risks to our users’ assets which, in turn, may damage our brand and reputation, discourage existing

and future customers from utilizing Everstake’s services, and adversely impact our staking revenue.

•Our platform or our API Providers’ platforms may be exploited to facilitate illegal activity such as fraud, money

laundering, gambling, tax evasion, and scams, which could adversely affect our business.

•Our users may be exposed to an API Provider experiencing insolvency or bankruptcy, which could adversely

impact our business, operating results, and financial condition.

•We do not conduct diligence with respect to the exchanges, market makers and other third parties our API

Providers may contract with to conduct the services they provide to our users.

•Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain key technical, user support and management personnel

while supporting the onboarding and career development of our team members.

•If we are required to reclassify independent contractors as employees, we may incur additional costs and taxes

which could adversely affect us.

•Our international operations expose us to additional risks and failure to manage those risks could materially and

adversely impact our business.

22

Table of contents

•Operational cost may exceed the award for solving blocks or transaction fees. Increased transaction fees may

adversely affect the usage of the Bitcoin network.

•Our business could be adversely impacted by the decision of foreign governments, internet service providers or

others to block transmission from IP addresses on which our platform depends.

•We are subject to changes in tax laws, treaties or regulations in various jurisdictions.

•We may spend significant resources deploying new products, which may fail to attract widespread adoption and

adversely affect our business, and may incorporate AI technologies into some of our products or processes.

These technologies may present business, compliance, and reputational risks.

•Fluctuations in interest rates, and rapidly changing interest rate environments could reduce expected revenues

and otherwise result in reduced profitability.

Risks Related to Our Industry

•Due to the unfamiliarity or negative publicity associated with digital assets, confidence or interest in digital asset

platforms may decline which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

•The new and rapidly evolving market for digital assets and services is subject to a high degree of uncertainty.

•Banks and financial institutions may not provide banking services, or may cut off services, to businesses that

engage in digital asset-related activities.

Risks Related to Regulation

•We are an “emerging growth company” and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements

applicable to emerging growth companies will make our Class A common stock less attractive to investors.

•The regulatory regime governing stablecoins, blockchain technologies, digital assets and securities is uncertain

and new regulations or policies may materially adversely affect the development of the Exodus Platform.

•We have made legal determinations as to whether our business, products, or services are in scope of various U.S.

and international laws and regulations, including whether certain digital assets traded using third-party services

integrated within our platform or other programs could be viewed as “securities." We face potentially material

legal, financial, and other risks to the extent a regulator disagrees with one or more of these determinations,

including the possibility of being deemed as a broker-dealer, in which we would likely experience difficulty in

complying with the broker-dealer financial responsibility rules.

•Regardless of the revenue structure for digital asset staking offered through Everstake, we could be deemed a

broker-dealer if the services that users can obtain related to these digital assets are deemed securities under U.S.

federal securities law, and we would likely experience difficulty in complying with the broker-dealer financial

responsibility rules.

•Failure to comply with anti-corruption, privacy, export control, import, or sanctions laws could harm our

business, limit international competitiveness, and expose us to liability.

•The limited rights of legal recourse available expose us and our investors to the risk of loss of our digital assets.

•We may plan to launch products in the future that require regulatory licenses for which we may fail to obtain or

experience significant delays in obtaining.

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Class A Common Stock

•Our Class A common stock may be highly volatile, decline due to actual or perceived large sales, and may not

maintain an active or stable trading market, potentially causing significant investor losses.

•The dual class structure of our common stock, as well as provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and our

Bylaws, could deter or prevent a change in control. We are currently a “controlled company” and, as a result,

qualify for and could rely on exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements.

•We are not subject to the provisions of Section 21.606 of the Texas Business Organizations Code, which could

negatively affect your investment.

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock Tokens

•The distributed ledger technology used by Securitize, the Transfer Agent, and SuperState, the co-transfer agent,

is novel with respect to our Common Stock Tokens and has been subject to limited testing and usage.

•The regulations governing tokenized securities in the United States are evolving and could introduce material

costs of compliance.

Table of contents

The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive. This summary of risk factors should be read in conjunction

with the more detailed risk factors below and the information provided elsewhere in this report, including “Item 1 –

Business” and “Item 7 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Risks Related to Our Business

Our profitability is dependent on our ability to attract, maintain and grow our user base. We may not grow in line with

historical rates.

The success of our business depends on our ability to attract and retain Exodus Platform users. To do so, we must

demonstrate to potential and existing users that our platform offers significant advantages over those of our competitors.

Market acceptance of the Exodus Platform is affected by a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control,

including the timing of the release into the market of new products, features and functionality introduced by our

competitors, the performance of third-party services offered through the Exodus Platform, user perceptions of the Exodus

Platform’s security and reliability, acceptance and interest in digital assets and the growth or contraction of the market in

which we compete.

As the market for digital assets and related services continues to mature, we expect that an increased focus on user

satisfaction will profoundly impact demand for the Exodus Platform. We believe that our users are increasingly looking for

flexible and secure digital asset wallets that seamlessly integrate a range of applications and support a wide variety of

digital assets, while streamlining the user experience and minimizing complexity. Despite past performance, if we are

unable to meet this demand, or if the Exodus Platform otherwise fails to achieve widespread market acceptance, our

business, results of operations, financial condition and growth prospects may be adversely affected.

If we are not able to maintain our brand or reputation, our business and results of operations may be adversely affected.

We believe that maintaining our reputation as a leading provider of a self-custodial digital asset wallet with superior user

support is critical to our relationship with our existing users and our ability to attract new users. The successful promotion

of our brand will depend on several factors, including our ability to maintain a record of security, performance and

reliability; our ability to continue to develop and integrate high-quality products and features for our platform through API

agreements; and our ability to successfully differentiate our platform from competitive products and services. Independent

industry and financial analysts often provide reviews of our platform, as well as those of our competitors. Perception of our

offerings in the marketplace may be significantly influenced by these expert reviews. If reviews of our platform are

negative or less positive than those of our competitors our brand may be adversely affected. The performance and

reputation of our third-party API Providers may also affect our brand and reputation, particularly if users do not have a

positive experience with our API Providers.

Further promotion of our brand may require us to make increased expenditures, and we anticipate that the expenditures will

increase as our market becomes more competitive. Expenditures intended to maintain and enhance our brand may not be

cost-effective or effective at all. If we do not successfully maintain and enhance our brand, we may experience reduced

pricing power relative to our competitors, a decrease in existing users, failure to attract new users or an inability to expand

offerings of new products to our existing users, all of which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of

operations and financial condition.

Our success depends on the success of our third-party service providers, and disruptions in our agreements with these

providers may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The success of third-party services on the Exodus Platform is affected by a number of factors, many of which are beyond

our control, such as our ability to successfully integrate services into the Exodus Platform using third-party APIs,

technological changes and developments, user preferences and technical support provided by the third party. Interruptions

or delays in our cloud or internal infrastructure or third-party services and cybersecurity incidents such as attacks on our

information systems by malicious actors could also affect our third-party services.

There can be no assurance that these third-party services will continue to perform in a manner our users find adequate. In

addition, if any of the agreements with our API Providers are terminated or suspended, whether due to a failure or breach

of performance or otherwise, we could be forced to incur additional expenses in seeking replacements, may not be able to

obtain replacements in a timely fashion, if at all, and such interruptions or discontinuations of service could interfere with

our existing user relationships and make us less attractive to potential new users. Multiple terminations or suspensions in a

short period of time could impair the functionality of the Exchange Aggregator, resulting in user dissatisfaction and

revenue loss. Additionally, certain of our third-party API Providers deliver features and functionalities that, if no longer

available to us, cannot be replaced easily or in a timely fashion, if at all. Users may attribute such interruptions or delays to

24

Table of contents

the operations of our platform, leading to doubts about the efficiency or reliability of the Exodus Platform which could

have an adverse effect on our reputation and financial condition.

In the event of errors, misconduct, negligence, or failures by our management team, our employees or contractors, or

third-party service providers, our business may be adversely impacted.

Management, employee, contractor or third-party service provider misconduct or errors could subject us to legal liability,

financial losses, and regulatory sanctions and could seriously harm our reputation and negatively affect our business. Such

misconduct could include engaging in improper or unauthorized transactions or activities, insider trading and

misappropriation of information, failing to supervise other employees, contractors or service providers, improperly using

confidential information, as well as improper trading activity such as spoofing, layering, wash trading, manipulation and

front-running. Additionally, our third-party service providers may misappropriate customer funds or digital assets. Third-

party service provider errors may include mistakes in executing, recording, or processing transactions for users. The

processes and procedures we have implemented and the training provided to our team members to reduce the likelihood of

misconduct and error, and as well as the representations we require our third-party service providers to make to us

regarding their processes and procedures, may not be successful. It is not always possible to deter misconduct, and the

precautions we and our third-party service providers take to prevent and detect this activity may not be effective in all

cases.

If we were found to have not met our compliance and other obligations, we could be subject to regulatory sanctions,

financial penalties, restrictions on our activities for failure to properly identify, monitor and respond to potentially

problematic activity and seriously damage our reputation. Our employees, contractors and agents could also commit errors

that subject us to financial claims for negligence, as well as regulatory actions, or result in financial liability. Further,

allegations by regulatory or criminal authorities of improper trading activities could affect our brand and reputation. If our

third-party service providers were found to have not met their regulatory oversight and compliance and other obligations or

if our third-party service providers experience bankruptcy or insolvency, we could receive negative publicity and damage

to our reputation that could adversely impact our business.

Our business could be negatively impacted by cybersecurity threats and other disruptions.

Our information systems, and those of the third parties on which we rely, are subject to growing risks associated with

cybersecurity threats which may include attacks from malicious third parties, viruses, ransomware and other malicious

software, computer hacking, human error or malfeasance, and social engineering (including phishing attacks). We, and our

users, have experienced, and may continue to experience, efforts to gain unauthorized access to, or disrupt, our internal

systems, networks and data.

The cybersecurity threat landscape is rapidly evolving and has become increasingly sophisticated, and we may not be

successful in preventing or mitigating cybersecurity threats that could have a material adverse effect on us despite our

efforts to protect against them. If any of the foregoing events were to materialize, they could result in technical disruptions

or errors, the loss of sensitive information, and unauthorized access to our internal systems, networks and data. Moreover, a

delay in or failure to detect a cybersecurity incident, or the full extent of an incident, could exacerbate its effects. We may

also be required to expend significant resources to investigate and remediate vulnerabilities or other identified risks, costs

which may not fully be covered by insurance coverage or indemnified by other means.

Any actual or perceived failure of the Exodus Platform to prevent technical failures, disruptions or errors, security incidents

or other cybersecurity incidents could harm our reputation, affect the services we provide to our customers and users, cause

the Exodus Platform to be perceived as insecure, underperforming or unreliable, impede our efforts to attract and retain

users, impact our competitive position, or result in litigation or regulatory proceedings, fines, penalties or other liabilities.

The third-party platforms on which users swap digital assets may be unregulated or subject to regulation in a relevant

jurisdiction but may not be in compliance, and, therefore, may be more exposed to fraud and security breaches than

established, regulated exchanges for other financial assets or instruments, which could have a negative impact on the

performance of our business.

Over the past several years, a number of digital asset trading platforms have been closed or faced issues due to fraud,

failure, security breaches or governmental regulations. Particularly for operators outside of the United States, digital asset

trading platforms are not regulated in ways similar to national securities exchanges and other highly regulated trading

environments or, if subject to regulation in a relevant jurisdiction, may not be in compliance. As a result, capital

requirements, clearing infrastructure and technical and operational security requirements may vary. The nature of the

digital assets held at these platforms makes them appealing targets for hackers and a number of digital asset trading

25

Table of contents

platforms have been victims of cybercrimes. It is possible that the customers of such digital asset trading platforms may not

be compensated or made whole for the partial or complete losses of their account balances in such platforms.

Negative perception, a lack of stability in the digital asset trading markets and the closure or temporary shutdown of these

third-party platforms due to fraud, business failure, hackers or malware, or government regulation may reduce confidence

in such platforms and result in greater volatility in the prices of digital assets.

Operational problems or failures may reduce confidence in digital asset-related businesses, the Exodus Platform, or in

digital assets generally.

Digital asset platforms are relatively new, and many are unlicensed, may be subject to regulation in a relevant jurisdiction

but may not be in compliance, are unregulated, or may operate without supervision by any governmental authorities, and

do not provide the public with significant information regarding their management team, corporate practices, cybersecurity,

and regulatory compliance. To the extent that unanticipated operational or trading problems or other failures, such as

security or technical failures, arise on trading platforms or the Exodus Platform, customers, users and the general public

may lose confidence or interest in digital asset platforms, including the Exodus Platform, which could have an adverse

impact on our business and our customers’ perception of us, including decreased use of our platform and loss of customer

demand for our products and services.

Digital asset exchanges may be exposed to front-running, wash trading or other manipulative acts or practices.

Digital asset exchanges may be susceptible to “front-running,” which refers to the process whereby someone uses

technology or market advantage to obtain information about upcoming transactions. Front-running is a frequent activity on

centralized as well as decentralized exchanges. By using bots functioning on a millisecond-scale timeframe, bad actors are

able to take advantage of the forthcoming price movement and make economic gains at the cost of those who conducted

these transactions. The objective of a front runner is to buy a chunk of tokens at a low price and later sell them at a higher

price. Front-running happens via manipulations of gas prices or timestamps, also known as slow matching. Digital asset

exchanges may be susceptible to wash trading, which occurs when offsetting trades are entered into for other than bona fide

reasons, such as the desire to inflate reported trading volumes. Wash trading may be motivated by non-economic reasons,

such as a desire for increased visibility on popular websites that monitor markets for digital assets so as to improve their

attractiveness to investors who look for maximum liquidity, or it may be motivated by the ability to attract listing fees from

token issuers who seek the most liquid and high-volume exchanges on which to list their digital assets. Results of wash

trading may include unexpected obstacles to trade and erroneous investment decisions based on false information. In the

United States, there have been allegations of wash trading even on regulated venues.

Any actual or perceived false trading in the digital asset exchange market, and any other fraudulent or manipulative acts

and practices, could adversely affect the value of digital assets and/or negatively affect the market perception of digital

assets. To the extent that front-running, wash trading or other manipulative acts or practices occur or appear to occur in

digital asset exchanges, investors may develop negative perceptions about the price integrity of digital assets exchanges

and the digital assets industry more broadly, which could adversely impact the price of digital assets.

User actions to send and receive digital assets from a user’s Exodus wallet involve risks, which could result in loss of a

user’s assets. We do not insure against potential losses, and we could be adversely affected if users blame or become

dissatisfied with the Exodus Platform as a result of these negative experiences.

Public and private digital asset “keys,” comprising an alphanumeric code, enable users to manage their digital assets on the

blockchain. Our users are able to send digital assets by inputting a public blockchain address and an amount to transfer and

are able to receive digital assets by providing the sending party with the users’ own public blockchain address. Our

involvement in these transfers is generally limited to providing a visual interface to access the blockchain. We do not take

possession of the user’s assets and have no access to the user’s public or private keys.

A number of errors can occur in the process of a user depositing or withdrawing digital assets into or from their Exodus

wallets, such as typos, mistakes, or the failure to include the information required by the respective blockchain network.

For instance, a user may incorrectly enter the desired recipient’s public key when withdrawing from our platforms or

transfer digital assets to a wallet address that the user does not own, control, or hold the private keys to. In addition, each

wallet address is only compatible with the underlying blockchain network on which it is created. For example, an Ethereum

wallet address can only be used to send and receive Ether. If any Bitcoin or other digital assets are sent to an Ethereum

wallet address or if any of the foregoing errors occur, all of the user’s sent digital assets will be permanently and

irretrievably lost with no means of recovery, including by us. In these scenarios, users may blame or become dissatisfied

with the Exodus Platform as a result of these negative experiences, which could adversely affect our business.

Table of contents

We do not have insurance for any losses of assets in our users’ wallets. As a result, if private keys are compromised,

including due to a cybersecurity incident or to the extent that any of the private keys relating to our users’ wallets are lost,

destroyed or otherwise compromised or unavailable, and no backup of the private key is accessible, we will be unable to

access the digital assets held in the related wallet. In these scenarios, users may blame or become dissatisfied with the

Exodus Platform as a result of these negative experiences, which could adversely affect our ability to access or sell our

digital services and subject us to regulatory scrutiny, reputational harm and significant financial losses.

If we are unable to access our private keys or if we experience a hack or other data loss relating to our ability to access

any of our digital assets, it could cause regulatory scrutiny, reputational harm and other losses.

Digital assets are controllable only by the possessor of the unique private key relating to the wallet in which the digital

assets are held. While blockchain protocols typically require public addresses to be published when used in a transaction,

private keys must be safeguarded in order to prevent a third party from accessing the digital assets held in such a wallet. To

the extent that any of the private keys relating to our hot wallet or cold wallet containing digital assets held for our own

account are lost, destroyed or otherwise compromised or unavailable, and no backup of the private key is accessible, we

will be unable to access the digital assets held in the related wallet which could adversely affect our ability to access or sell

our digital assets and subject us to regulatory scrutiny, reputational harm and significant financial losses, all of which could

materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Some of our technology incorporates or utilizes software released under the terms of “open source” licenses, which

could subject us to possible litigation and be used by other companies to compete against us.

Aspects of the Exodus Platform and our applications include or utilize software released under the terms of open source

licenses, including the MIT License, Internet Systems Consortium License, Apache License, Mozilla Public License and

GNU Lesser General Public License. While we monitor our use of open source software (“OSS”), we could be subject to

suits for noncompliance with open source licensing terms, infringement on a third party’s intellectual property rights or

indemnification. Such inadvertent use could also require us to release our proprietary source code, pay damages, royalties,

license fees or other amounts, seek new licenses from third parties, re-engineer our platform or applications, discontinue

sales or distribution of software in the event re-engineering cannot be accomplished on a timely basis or take other

remedial action that may divert resources away from the operation of our business, maintenance of our platform or our

development efforts, any of which could adversely affect our business.

Disputes with our users and other third parties could be costly, time-consuming and harm our business and reputation.

Our business requires us to enter into a large number of agreements with third-party service providers and distribute the

Exodus Platform in many different jurisdictions. Our agreements contain a variety of terms, including service levels, data

privacy and security obligations, indemnification, dispute resolution procedures and regulatory requirements. Agreement

terms may not be standardized across our business and can be subject to differing interpretations and local law

requirements, which could result in disputes with our users and other third parties from time to time. If our users or other

third parties notify us of a breach of contract or otherwise dispute the terms of our agreements, the dispute resolution

process could be expensive and time consuming and result in the diversion of resources that could otherwise be deployed to

grow our business. Even if these disputes are resolved in our favor, we may be unable to recoup the expenses and other

diverted resources committed to resolving the dispute and, if we receive negative publicity in connection with the dispute,

our reputation and brand may be harmed. Furthermore, the ultimate resolution of such disputes may be adverse to our

interests and as a result could negatively affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We face intense and increasing competition, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results

of operations.

The market in which our platform competes is intensely competitive and characterized by rapid changes in technology, user

expectations, industry standards, frequent introductions of new products and improvements to existing products. We expect

competition to increase as other established or emerging companies enter the markets for digital assets, particularly with

respect to wallets, exchanges and applications designed to support digital assets.

In particular, some of our competitors may have substantially broader and more diverse product and services offerings,

allowing them to leverage existing commercial relationships, incorporate functionality into existing products, sell products

and services with which we compete at zero or negative margins, offer fee waivers and reductions or other economic and

non-economic concessions, bundle products, maintain closed technology platforms or render our platform unable to

interoperate with such products. If they were to engage in predatory practices, it could harm our existing platform offerings

or prevent us from creating viable products in other segments of the markets in which we participate. If we are unable to

anticipate or effectively react to these challenges, our competitive position could weaken, and we could experience a

27

Table of contents

decline in revenue or our growth rate that could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results

of operations.

If we are not able to effectively keep pace with technological developments that are attractive to our current and

prospective users, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Because our platform is designed to operate on a variety of networks, applications, systems and devices, we will need to

continually modify and enhance our platform to keep pace with technological advancements. There can be no assurance

that updates to our platform will be released in a timely or cost-effective manner. In addition, they may contain errors or

defects in operability within the Exodus Platform, which could make our platform become less marketable, less

competitive or obsolete and our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

If we fail to effectively manage our growth, we may be unable to execute our business plan, maintain high-quality levels

of support, ensure the security of our platform, adequately address competitive challenges or maintain our corporate

culture, and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our success depends on our ability to effectively manage the growth of our business. The Exodus Platform has experienced

rapid organic growth since the market for digital assets began attracting widespread interest in 2017 and 2018. Our growth

has placed, and is expected to continue to place, a strain on our management and our administrative, operational and

financial infrastructure. Our success will depend in part on our ability to manage this growth effectively, which will require

that we continue to improve our administrative, operational, financial, legal, and management systems and controls by,

among other things: maintaining the integrity of our core business purpose, which is to design and provide the best user

experience for digital assets; maintaining high levels of user support; ensuring the integrity and security of our platform

and IT infrastructure; identifying and continuing to expand strategic relationships with third-party API Providers and

executing agreements to integrate third-party software into the Exodus Platform; further improving our key business

applications, processes and IT infrastructure; and enhancing our information and communication systems to ensure that our

team members around the world are well-coordinated and can effectively communicate with each other and our growing

base of third-party API Providers and users.

Managing our growth will require capital expenditures and allocation of valuable management and team member resources.

If we fail to manage our expected growth, the uninterrupted and secure operation of our platform and our compliance with

the rules and regulations applicable to our operations, the quality of our platform and ability to compete could suffer. Any

failure to preserve our culture also could further harm our ability to retain and recruit personnel, innovate and create new

enhancements for our platform, operate effectively and execute on our business strategy.

We may be unable to raise additional capital needed to grow our business.

While we may need to raise additional capital to expand our operations, pursue our growth strategies and respond to

competitive pressures or working capital requirements, we may not be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing on

favorable terms, if at all, which could impair our growth and adversely affect our existing operations. The global economy,

including credit and financial markets, has in recent years experienced extreme volatility and disruptions, including

diminished credit availability, bank collapses, rising interest and inflation rates, declines in consumer confidence, declines

in economic growth, increases in unemployment rates, fluctuating currency valuations and uncertainty about economic

stability. Such macroeconomic conditions could also make it more difficult for us to incur additional debt or obtain equity

financing. Further, the digital asset industry has been negatively impacted by recent events in recent years such as the

bankruptcies of Core Scientific, Celsius Network, Voyager Digital Ltd., Three Arrows Capital and FTX. In response to

these events, the digital asset markets, including the market for Bitcoin specifically, have experienced extreme price

volatility and several other entities in the digital asset industry have been, and may continue to be, negatively affected,

further undermining confidence in the digital asset markets and in Bitcoin. In light of conditions impacting our industry, it

may be more difficult for us to obtain equity or debt financing in the future.

If we raise additional equity financing, our shareholders may experience significant dilution of their ownership interests,

and the per share value of our Class A common stock could decline. Furthermore, if we engage in additional debt

financing, the holders of debt likely would have priority over the holders of our Class A common stock on order of

payment preference. We may be required to accept terms that restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness, take other

actions including accepting terms that require us to maintain specified liquidity or other ratios that could otherwise not be

in the interests of our shareholders. Additionally, additional debt financing may require us to pledge certain of our digital

asset holdings as collateral, which may lead to the forced disposition of such digital asset holdings in certain circumstances,

which could adversely impact our business, financial condition and operating results.

We may pursue strategic transactions, which could be difficult to identify, complete, and implement, and could disrupt

our business or change our business profile significantly.

Our ability as an organization to successfully acquire technologies or businesses is unproven. However, we believe that our

long-term growth depends, in part, on our ability to develop and monetize additional aspects of our platform, which we

may pursue through acquisitions, investments in other companies, partnerships, alliances or other strategic transactions. We

cannot assure you that we will be able to identify suitable transactions and, even if we are able to identify such transactions,

that we will be able to consummate any such acquisitions on acceptable terms or successfully integrate them. Completing

or successfully integrating strategic acquisitions involves significant risks that could adversely affect our business, results

of operations, capital position, and prospects. Any transaction may fail to close on anticipated terms or timelines; be

delayed, conditioned, or prohibited by regulators; or require unexpected divestitures or capital actions. Even if completed,

we may be unable to integrate operations, technologies, data, risk and compliance frameworks, products, and cultures

effectively; retain customers, counterparties, and key personnel; achieve expected cost synergies or revenue opportunities;

or maintain the reliability and security of combined systems and third‑party/vendor relationships, including with respect to

cybersecurity and data privacy. We could also inherit unforeseen liabilities, credit or compliance issues, or adverse

accounting impacts, and we may incur higher‑than‑expected restructuring and integration expenses. Market volatility,

interest rate movements, and funding conditions could reduce the value of acquired assets, among other adverse impacts,

while integration activities may distract management, strain risk management and internal control resources, and diminish

our ability to execute other strategic priorities. If we overestimate growth or synergy assumptions or encounter operational

or regulatory setbacks, such transactions could be dilutive to earnings, impair goodwill or other intangibles, heighten

liquidity and capital requirements, and expose us to litigation and reputational harm. For example, in November 2025, we

entered into an agreement to acquire W3C, which is expected to close in 2026. Any future strategic transactions we pursue

may involve a number of risks that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.

Our holdings of digital assets expose us to exchange, security, valuation and liquidity risks, which could negatively

affect us.

The market price of Bitcoin has historically been volatile and may affect our business by fluctuating the value of funds

available to us, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Further, because we do not currently hedge our investment in Bitcoin, and do not intend to for the foreseeable future, we

are directly exposed to Bitcoin’s price volatility and surrounding risks. In addition, the market price of our Class A

common stock has exhibited, and we expect will continue to exhibit, a direct correlation with the market price of Bitcoin.

As a result, declines in the price of Bitcoin have historically been accompanied by, and may in the future result in,

immediate declines in the market price of our Class A common stock, regardless of our actual or expected operating

performance or other traditional factors that influence share prices.

The market price of Bitcoin is impacted by a variety of factors and is determined primarily using data from various

exchanges, over-the-counter markets and derivative platforms. As described above, the digital asset industry has been

negatively impacted by market price volatility. Such prices may also be subject to factors that impact commodities which

could subject us to additional influence from fraudulent or illegitimate actors, real or perceived scarcity and political,

economic, regulatory or other conditions. Pricing may be the result of, and may continue to result in, speculation regarding

future appreciation in the value of Bitcoin, our Class A common stock price and manipulation of market prices for both

Bitcoin and shares of our Class A common stock. Further, volatility in digital asset pricing could lead to other impacts such

as increased risks of legal proceedings or governmental scrutiny of us and our affiliates, users, suppliers and partners either

in the United States or in other jurisdictions. Continued volatility in the digital asset industry could adversely affect an

investment in our Class A common stock.

Most of our expenses, like team member salaries, are denominated in U.S. dollars and paid using Bitcoin. At the time of

payment, amounts are translated from U.S. dollar to Bitcoin based on the current Bitcoin rate. The Bitcoin used for

payments is primarily derived from revenue from ongoing operations received in Bitcoin. The company pays the transfer

fees related to outgoing payments. We are subject to translational risk because we may be required to pay a larger amount

of Bitcoin to satisfy these expenses if the dollar value of Bitcoin decreases. Certain of our other liabilities, expenses and

costs must be paid in U.S. dollars, and we may be required to convert digital assets to U.S. dollars in order to satisfy those

liabilities, expenses and costs. The U.S. dollar value of any given digital asset can fluctuate significantly and may be

characterized by volatility. There can be no assurance that we will be able to exchange our digital assets for U.S. dollars on

a timely basis, if at all, or for a fair price. If the value of our digital assets declines, or if we experience difficulties

converting our digital assets to U.S. dollars, we may not have sufficient liquidity to satisfy our liabilities, expenses and

costs as they become due, which may negatively affect our business operations and financial condition. For an example of

the volatility, the price of Bitcoin was $87,516 and $93,425 as of December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. To pay the

same $100,000 of salary took 1.14 Bitcoin on December 31, 2025, versus 1.07 Bitcoin on December 31, 2024.

Additionally, digital assets are not subject to the protections typically enjoyed by more conventional types of financial

assets, such as FDIC or Securities Investor Protection Corporation insurance. If our digital assets are lost, stolen or

destroyed, we may not have adequate sources of recovery and, even if we can identify a third party responsible for such

loss, theft or destruction, such third party may not have the financial resources sufficient to make us whole again. Digital

asset networks may also be subject to vulnerabilities, such as a “51% attack” where, if a mining pool were to gain control

of more than 50% of the “hash” rate, or the amount of computing and process power being contributed to the network

through mining, a malicious actor would be able to gain full control of the network and the ability to manipulate the

blockchain. A significant portion of an individual digital asset may be held by a small number of holders, who would have

the ability to manipulate the price of the asset. In addition, we do not have insurance that covers our digital asset holdings

in the event of loss or fraud. As a result, we may suffer a loss with respect to our digital asset holdings, and we may not be

able to recover any of our carried value in these digital asset holdings if they are lost or stolen. If we are not otherwise able

to recover damages from a malicious actor in connection with these losses, our business and results of operations may

suffer, which may have a material negative impact on the price of our Class A common stock.

Our revenue may be adversely affected if the markets for Bitcoin, Tether, Ether and USDC deteriorate or if their prices

decline.

Our revenue may be adversely affected if the markets for Bitcoin, Tether, Ether and USDC deteriorate or if their prices

decline, including, without limitation, as a result of the following factors:

•the reduction in mining rewards of Bitcoin, including block reward halving events, which are events that occur

after a specific period of time and reduces the block reward earned by miners (the Bitcoin mining rewards system

is expected to continue until 2140, when the proposed limit of 21 million Bitcoin is theoretically reached; in

2009, the reward for each block in the chain mined was 50 Bitcoin; since the first halving, the reward has been

periodically reduced to 25, 12.5, and to 6.25 Bitcoins on May 11, 2020; the reward was again reduced to 3.125

when the latest Bitcoin halving occurred on April 19, 2024);

•public sentiment related to the actual or perceived environmental impact of Bitcoin, Tether, Ether and USDC,

and related activities, including environmental concerns raised by private individuals and governmental actors

related to the energy resources consumed in the Bitcoin mining process;

•disruptions, hacks, splits in the underlying networks also known as “forks,” attacks by malicious actors who

control a significant portion of the networks’ hash rate such as double spend or 51% attacks, or other similar

incidents affecting the Bitcoin or Ethereum blockchain networks;

•hard “forks” resulting in the creation of and divergence into multiple separate networks, such as Bitcoin Cash and

Ethereum Classic;

•informal governance led by Bitcoin, Tether, Ether and USDC core developers that lead to revisions to the

underlying source code or inactions that prevent network scaling, and which evolve over time largely based on

self-determined participation, which may result in new changes or updates that affect their speed, security,

usability or value;

•the ability for Bitcoin and Ethereum blockchain networks to resolve significant scaling challenges and increase

the volume and speed of transactions;

•the ability to attract and retain developers and customers to use Bitcoin, Tether, Ether and USDC for payment,

store of value, unit of accounting and other intended uses and the absence of another supported digital asset to

attract and retain developers and customers for the same;

•transaction congestion and fees associated with processing transactions on the Bitcoin and Ethereum networks

and the absence of another supported digital asset to replace these transactions;

•negative public perception or market sentiment regarding Bitcoin, Tether, Ether and USDC;

•development in mathematics, technology, including in digital computing, artificial intelligence, algebraic

geometry and quantum computing that could result in the cryptography being used by Bitcoin, Tether, Ether and

USDC becoming insecure or ineffective;

•adverse legal proceedings or regulatory enforcement actions, judgments or settlements impacting cryptoeconomy

participants;

•regulatory, legislative or other compulsory or informal restrictions or limitations on Bitcoin, Tether, Ether and

USDC lending, mining or staking activities;

30

Table of contents

•many digital assets have concentrated ownership or an “admin key,” allowing a small group of holders to have

significant unilateral control and influence over key decisions related to their crypto networks, such as

governance decisions and protocol changes, as well as the market price of such digital assets; and

•liquidity and credit risk issues experienced by other crypto platforms and other participants of the

cryptoeconomy, and laws and regulations affecting the Bitcoin and Ethereum networks or access to these

networks.

Staking poses risks to our users’ assets which, in turn, may damage our brand and reputation, discourage existing and

future customers from utilizing Everstake’s services, and adversely impact our staking revenue earned through

Everstake.

Certain supported digital assets enable holders to earn rewards by participating in decentralized governance, bookkeeping

and transaction confirmation activities on their underlying blockchain networks, such as through staking activities,

including staking through validation, delegating and baking. Staking allows users to “stake” supported digital assets held in

their Exodus wallets by participating in blockchain validation through a third-party API Provider, Everstake. Everstake

currently provides and is expected to continue to provide such services for certain supported crypto assets to our users in

order to enable them to earn rewards based on crypto assets held in their Exodus wallets. Everstake’s network may further

require customer assets to be transferred into smart contracts on the underlying blockchain networks not under Everstake’s

or anyone’s control. If Everstake or smart contracts fail to operate as expected, suffer cybersecurity attacks, experience

security issues or encounter other problems, our users’ assets may be irretrievably lost. In addition, certain blockchain

networks dictate requirements for participation in the relevant decentralized governance activity, and may impose penalties,

or “slashing,” if the relevant activities are not performed correctly, such as if the staker, delegator or baker acts maliciously

on the network, “double signs” any transactions, or experience extended downtimes. If Everstake is slashed by the

underlying blockchain network, our users’ assets may be confiscated, withdrawn or burnt by the network. Any penalties or

slashing events could damage our brand and reputation, discourage existing and future customers from utilizing

Everstake’s services, and adversely impact our staking revenue earned through Everstake.

Our platform or our API Providers’ platforms may be exploited to facilitate illegal activity such as fraud, money

laundering, gambling, tax evasion and scams, which could adversely affect our business.

Our platform or our API Providers’ platforms may be exploited to facilitate illegal activity including fraud, money

laundering, gambling, tax evasion and scams. We, our API Providers or our partners may be specifically targeted by

individuals seeking to conduct fraudulent transfers, and it may be difficult or impossible for us to detect, intervene, disrupt,

and avoid such transactions in certain circumstances. The use of our platform for illegal or improper purposes could subject

us to claims, individual and class action lawsuits, and government and regulatory investigations, prosecutions, enforcement

actions, inquiries, or requests that could result in liability and reputational harm for us. In the event that a customer is found

responsible for intentionally or inadvertently violating the laws in any jurisdiction, we may be subject to governmental

inquiries, enforcement actions, prosecution, or otherwise held secondarily liable for aiding or facilitating such activities.

Owners of intellectual property rights or government authorities may seek to bring legal action against software providers

for involvement in the sale of infringing or allegedly infringing items. Any threatened or resulting claims could result in

reputational harm, and any resulting liabilities, loss of transaction volume or increased costs could harm our business.

Our platform and brand may be impersonated and exploited by third-party criminal actors seeking to defraud users and

other illegal activity, and we may not be able to prevent all such activity. For example, in December 2025, the Company

became aware of a fraudulent application listed on the App Store that falsely claimed to be our Exodus wallet and resulted

in user losses. The Company is not responsible for, does not control, and does not accept liability for the actions of

unaffiliated third-party criminals or any losses incurred as a result of such actions. Similar incidents may occur in the

future, and our past success in having the fraudulent application removed after sustained and proactive efforts does not

guarantee we will obtain similar removals in the future. Our steps to enhance protections and safeguards, such efforts may

not be fully effective. Criminal actors may continue to misuse our name, branding, or reputation in ways that are difficult to

detect or prevent, and our efforts to mitigate such risks may not be timely or effective. Any such incidents could harm

users, damage our brand and reputation, result in increased regulatory scrutiny or litigation, and adversely affect our

business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Moreover, while illegal activities are primarily facilitated through the use of fiat currencies, digital assets are relatively new

and, in many jurisdictions, may be lightly regulated or largely unregulated. Many types of digital assets have

characteristics, such as the speed with which digital currency transactions can be conducted, the ability to conduct

transactions without the involvement of regulated intermediaries, the ability to engage in transactions across multiple

jurisdictions, and the irreversible nature of certain digital asset transactions, and encryption technology that anonymizes

these transactions, that make digital assets susceptible to use in illegal activity. U.S. federal and state and foreign regulatory

authorities and law enforcement agencies, such as the Department of Justice (“DOJ”), SEC, Commodities Futures Trading

31

Table of contents

Commission (“CFTC”), Federal Trade Commission ("FTC"), OFAC or the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), and various

state securities and financial regulators have taken and continue to take legal action against persons and entities alleged to

be engaged in fraudulent schemes or other illicit activity involving digital assets. We also support digital assets that

incorporate privacy-enhancing features and may from time to time support additional digital assets with similar

functionalities. These privacy-enhancing digital assets obscure the identities of sender and receiver and may prevent law

enforcement officials from tracing the source of funds on the blockchain. Facilitating transactions in these digital assets

may cause us to be at increased risk of liability arising out of anti-money laundering and economic sanctions laws and

regulations.

Our users may be exposed to an API Provider experiencing insolvency or bankruptcy, which could adversely impact our

business, operating results, and financial condition.

Our users may be exposed to an API Provider experiencing insolvency or bankruptcy. In the scenario that an API Provider

would experience insolvency or bankruptcy during the period of time in which a user’s assets are exposed to the API

Provider’s platform, it is possible that such digital assets may be considered the property of a bankruptcy estate and subject

to bankruptcy proceedings. Such users could be treated as the API Provider’s general unsecured creditors.

For digital asset swap transactions, this risk would be limited to the brief period of time during which wallet users are

engaged in an active crypto-asset transaction. For example, in connection with digital asset swap transactions, a user may

be exposed to an API Provider experiencing insolvency or bankruptcy when wallet users are engaged in an active crypto-

asset transaction on an API Provider’s platform. As another example, if a staking API Provider like Everstake were to

experience insolvency or bankruptcy, the impact on a user’s staked digital assets would depend on the type of digital asset

and the staking protocol of the particular blockchain. A user can typically request to unstake digital assets at any time, and

in the event of the API Provider’s insolvency or bankruptcy, a user would stop receiving rewards for that period, but its

underlying digital assets would be preserved. In this scenario, a user would need to initiate the unstaking process according

to the particular blockchain protocol’s requirements (e.g., a 21-day waiting period for ATOM). Following completion of

the unstaking request, a user may elect to stake its digital assets with another API Provider and any rewards already earned

and stored in a user’s wallet would remain unaffected.

We do not conduct diligence with respect to the exchanges, market makers and other third parties our API Providers

may contract with to conduct the services they provide to our users.

The Exodus Platform allows users to access the services offered and performed by our API Providers. The services

provided by our API Providers allow users to engage in transactions such as digital asset exchanging, fiat onboarding and

staking products for over 30,000 digital assets. We conduct KYB and other diligence with respect to our API Providers as

described in “Item 1. Business – Know Your Customer and Know Your Business Programs – KYB Program For API

Providers and Vendors,” and we understand that, in turn, the API Providers conduct AML and KYB procedures with

respect to their service providers in accordance with their respective policies, procedures and regulatory obligations.

However, we do not independently conduct diligence with respect to the third parties with which our API Providers

contract. For example, we do not conduct diligence with respect to the exchanges and market makers with which our API

Provider’s contract to support the services they provide to their users (including any users from the Exodus Platform).

Because Exodus does not independently conduct diligence with respect to these third parties, we cannot assure users as to

these third parties or the processes and procedures our API Providers use to engage such third parties.

Our API Providers and the third parties with whom they contract may be subject to financial, legal, regulatory, and labor

issues, cybersecurity incidents, disruptions, interruptions, and other misconduct of which we are not aware. Should any of

the foregoing materialize and lead to disruptions or issues in third party operations, risks to our users may include loss of

information stored with or provided to the API Provider, along with loss of access to the digital assets or fiat currency used

in any pending transaction with the API Provider. In such instances, because we do not control the operations of any of our

API Providers or third parties with which they contract, we will be unable to intervene and can make no assurances as to

the outcome of any issue or dispute between the user and API Provider. In these scenarios, users may blame or become

dissatisfied with the Exodus Platform as a result of these negative experiences, which could adversely affect our ability to

access or sell our digital services and subject us to legal or regulatory scrutiny, reputational harm and significant financial

losses.

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain key technical, user support and management personnel while

supporting the onboarding and career development of our team members.

Our ability to successfully execute on our business plan depends on the contribution of our management team as well as

other key talent including platform development, operations, user support, general administrative functions and our creative

and engineering teams. We have previously and may continue to experience increasing competition for available talent in

the workforce as reflected by the low unemployment rate, shortages of available industry talent and increasing costs to

32

Table of contents

retain team members. As a result, we could experience inefficiencies or a lack of business continuity due to team member

turnover, including loss of historical knowledge, new team members’ lack of historical knowledge and lack of familiarity

with the business processes, operating requirements, purpose and culture, policies and procedures and key information

technologies and related infrastructure used in our day-to-day operations and financial reporting. We may also experience

additional costs as new team members learn their roles and gain necessary experience and training, including as it relates to

the complex regulations applicable to our business, in addition to the cost of hiring new individuals.

We are dependent on our co-founders Jon Paul Richardson and Daniel Castagnoli, the loss of whose services may

adversely impact the achievement of our objectives. If we were to lose the services of members of our management team or

other key talent, whether due to death, disability, resignation or termination of employment, our ability to successfully

implement our business strategy, financial plans, marketing and other objectives could be significantly impaired. In

addition, if we are unable to attract and retain qualified key talent, we may not be able to effectively and efficiently manage

our business and execute our business plan.

If we are required to reclassify independent contractors as employees, we may incur additional costs and taxes which

could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We use a significant number of independent contractors in our international operations for whom we do not pay or

withhold any employment tax based on their location or jurisdiction. Whether an individual is an employee or an

independent contractor depends on applicable local law and may be subject to multiple, fact-intensive factors. There can be

no assurance that legislative, judicial or regulatory (including tax) authorities will not introduce proposals or assert

interpretations of existing rules and regulations that would change, or at least challenge, the classification of our

independent contractors. Foreign tax authorities may determine that we have misclassified our independent contractors for

employment tax or other purposes and, as a result, seek additional taxes from us or attempt to impose fines and penalties.

Additionally, individual independent contractors could initiate legal actions asserting rights of employment in their various

jurisdictions, which could include claims for unpaid wages or other benefits that are required by local laws. If we are

required to pay employer taxes or pay backup withholding with respect to prior periods and/or any other amounts with

respect to or on behalf of our independent contractors, our operating costs will increase, which could adversely impact our

business, financial condition or results of operations. Additionally, if we are the subject of individual legal actions or

government investigations related to our independent contractors, the dispute resolution process could be expensive and

time consuming and result in the diversion of resources that could otherwise be deployed to grow our business. Even if any

such dispute or investigation were to be resolved in our favor, we may be unable to recoup the expenses and other diverted

resources committed to resolving the dispute or investigation and, if we receive negative publicity in connection with any

such dispute, our reputation and brand may be harmed.

Our international operations expose us to additional risks and failure to manage those risks could materially and

adversely impact our business.

While Exodus does not have physical infrastructure globally, we do have contractors and five subsidiaries outside of the

United States and contracts with international third-party API Providers. Our international operations and any expansion

internationally, including due to acquisitions, could subject us to a variety of additional risks and challenges, including:

•changing macroeconomic conditions in our markets, including as a result of inflation (and related monetary

policy actions in response to inflation) and the ongoing longer-term impact of changes in international trade

policies;

•providing our platform and operating our business in different languages, among different cultures and time

zones;

•compliance with foreign privacy, data protection, security laws and regulations, data localization requirements,

trade laws, antitrust and competition laws, securities and commodities laws, human rights laws, and a variety of

other local, national and multinational regulations and laws, and the risks and costs of non-compliance;

•compliance with U.S. laws and regulations for foreign operations, including anti-bribery laws, import and export

•reduced or uncertain protection for intellectual property rights and contractual rights in some countries;

•greater risk of unexpected changes in regulatory practices, tariffs, sanctions, trade barriers, tax laws and treaties;

and

•differing employment practices and labor relations issues.

Our measures to support compliance with foreign laws and regulations may be insufficient, and any failure to mitigate the

risks associated with our international providers could impact our ability to conduct our business as planned which could

materially and adversely impact our business. In addition, increased political and economic conditions and uncertainty,

geo-political regional conflicts, terrorist activity, political unrest, civil strife, acts of war, government shutdowns, product

boycotts, travel or immigration restrictions, tariffs and other trade restrictions, public health risks or pandemics, energy

policy or restrictions, public corruption, expropriation and other economic or political uncertainties, including inaccuracies

in our assumptions about these factors, could interrupt and negatively affect our business operations.

We actively monitor the impact of the dynamic macroeconomic environment. For example, any geo-political unrest could

cause disruptions in the Company’s business and lead to interruptions, delays or loss of critical data. Specifically, financial

and digital asset markets may be negatively affected by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and within the Middle

East. Although we believe the digital asset industry remains resilient, as demonstrated by our increase in our volume in

2025, we cannot predict the extent to which our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows will ultimately be

impacted by these ongoing economic conditions.

Operational costs may exceed the award for solving blocks or transaction fees. Increased transaction fees may adversely

affect the usage of the Bitcoin network.

Miners generate revenue from both newly created Bitcoin (known as the “block reward”) and from fees taken upon

verification of transactions. If the aggregate revenue from transaction fees and the block reward is below a miner’s cost, the

miner may cease operations. Additionally, in the event of a fork of the Bitcoin network, some miners may choose to mine

the alternative new Bitcoin resulting from the fork, thus reducing processing power on the original blockchain. Further, the

incentives for miners to contribute processing power to the Bitcoin network is set to decrease over time. As a result of the

Bitcoin network’s “halving” mechanism, the block reward that miners receive for successfully mining a block are cut in

half each time the Bitcoin network mines 210,000 blocks. This type of “halving” event generally occurs once every four

years and will continue until the maximum possible 21 million Bitcoin have been mined and released into circulation.

Currently, there are approximately 20 million Bitcoin that have been mined and are in circulation.

In approximately 2140, new Bitcoin tokens will no longer be awarded for adding a new block and miners will only have

transaction fees to incentivize them. As a result, it is expected that miners will need to be better compensated with higher

transaction fees to ensure that there is adequate incentive for them to continue mining. If transaction confirmation fees

become too high, the marketplace may be reluctant to use Bitcoin. This may result in decreased usage and limit expansion

of the Bitcoin network in the retail. Conversely, if the reward for miners or the value of the transaction fees is insufficient

to motivate miners, they may cease expending processing power for any blockchain to solve blocks and confirm

transactions. Ultimately, if the awards of new Bitcoin for solving blocks declines and transaction fees for recording

transactions are not sufficiently high to incentivize miners, or if the costs of validating transactions grow

disproportionately, miners may operate at a loss, transition to other networks or cease operations altogether. Each of these

outcomes could, in turn, slow transaction validation and usage, which could have a negative impact on the Bitcoin network,

which is the primary network used for Exodus’ operations.

An acute cessation of mining operations would reduce the collective processing power on the Bitcoin network, which

would adversely affect the transaction verification process by temporarily decreasing the speed at which blocks are added

to the blockchain and make the blockchain more vulnerable to a malicious actor obtaining control in excess of 50% of the

processing power on the blockchain. Reductions in processing power could result in material, though temporary, delays in

transaction confirmation time, which could delay receipt of revenue and payment of our expenses.

Our business could be adversely impacted by the decision of foreign governments, internet service providers or others to

block transmission from IP addresses on which our platform depends in order to enforce certain internet content

blocking efforts.

The evolving design of our platform may create challenges for various organizations, including governments, that seek to

block certain content based on IP address “blacklists” or other mechanisms. If these challenges become too difficult for

those organizations to overcome, they could make the decision to block content in an over-broad manner or block

completely websites of providers that integrate with our platform. For example, the Chinese government restricts access to

certain Google Cloud services from within the People’s Republic of China, and users of our mobile platform have

experienced degraded functionality in China due to these restrictions on our platform’s ability to connect with those

34

Table of contents

services. Some of these blocking efforts would be out of our control once they have been put in place and may limit our

ability to provide our platform or third-party apps on a fully global basis, which could reduce demand for our platform

among current or potential users and adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We are subject to changes in tax laws, treaties or regulations in various jurisdictions.

We operate in various jurisdictions and are subject to changes in applicable tax laws, treaties or regulations in those

jurisdictions. A material change in the tax laws, treaties or regulations, or their interpretation, of any jurisdiction with

which we do business, or in which we have significant operations, could adversely affect us. For example, the Pillar 2

approach, which came into effect in 2023 in certain jurisdictions, will establish a global minimum tax rate of 15%, such

that multinational enterprises with an effective tax rate in a jurisdiction below this minimum rate will need to pay

additional tax. Pillar 2 did not apply in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, but many aspects of the application

of Pillar 2 remain to be clarified with respect to the implementation of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and

Development’s approach in their tax treaties and domestic tax laws in the jurisdictions in which we or our subsidiaries

operate or based.

We may spend significant resources deploying new products, which may fail to attract widespread adoption and

adversely affect our business.

Our ability to maintain our status within the digital asset industry is largely dependent on our ability to adjust with changes

in consumer demand. As we focus on remaining competitive within the digital asset industry by growing the Exodus

Platform, we may deploy significant resources towards developing new or novel products or services. Such resources could

include significant financial costs. Despite the significant potential these products or services may have, such products or

services may fail to attract widespread adoption and therefore may have a negative impact on our business and result in

sunk costs.

We may incorporate AI technologies into some of our products or processes. These technologies may present business,

compliance, or reputational risks.

The digital asset industry is a forward, innovation-leaning industry that is constantly evaluating how to incorporate the

latest technological developments into products, including AI. As the digital asset industry matures, we will continue to

evaluate opportunities where AI may offer benefits that enhance the Exodus Platform for both existing and potential future

products, as well as our processes. AI can pose significant business, compliance, or reputational risks due to both potential

existing flaws within AI models or the evolving regulatory landscape in the various jurisdictions where the Exodus

Platform may be available.

Public AI failures, inadequate AI governance, recordkeeping or auditability failures, data privacy violations, intellectual

property leakage, or loss of human judgment are some of the risks that AI technologies may pose to our business as we

explore potential use cases for these technologies. Both actual and perceived risks could have a negative impact on us from

a business, compliance, or reputational perspective. Additionally, regulatory lag could have a material impact on our use of

AI in instances where a jurisdiction imposes new laws or regulations that cause us to change or eliminate the way we may

already use AI within the Exodus Platform prior to such changes in laws or regulations. In such instances, we may be

required to decrease or completely eliminate some products or AI-dependent features within products, resulting in lower

user attraction and retention.

Fluctuations in interest rates, and rapidly changing interest rate environments could reduce expected revenues and

otherwise result in reduced profitability.

As the digital asset industry grows, it has become more sensitive to larger, macroeconomic factors that could affect the

ability for digital asset-related businesses to grow and offer certain products. Changes in interest rates could reduce or

eliminate our ability to offer products that are indirectly reliant on such interest rates. The payout of any potential

stablecoin rewards programs on the Exodus Platform could be adversely affected in cases where underlying financial

resources are indirectly reliant upon existing interest rates paid to the stablecoin issuer on the underlying reserve assets.

Should any fluctuation or change in the prevailing interest rates happen, these reward programs may be negatively affected

or even unfeasible, resulting in reduced profitability.

Risks Related to Our Industry

Due to the unfamiliarity or negative publicity associated with digital assets, confidence or interest in digital asset

platforms may decline which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The Exodus Platform is built around holding, transferring, exchanging and using digital assets, which means our business

depends on growth in the public’s adoption and acceptance of digital assets and the underlying blockchain technology to

maintain and increase demand for the Exodus Platform. During 2022, a major wave of bankruptcies occurred, where

multiple companies such as Core Scientific, Celsius Network, Voyager Digital Ltd., Three Arrows Capital and FTX and

several of its affiliates all declared bankruptcy. The FTX app was available on the Exodus Platform until we removed it in

November 2022. Following these events, users’ confidence in trading of digital assets has decreased and the digital asset

market has experienced negative publicity and extreme price volatility. The decrease in confidence in digital assets has had

and may continue to have a negative impact on our business, including a decline in users, transaction-based API fees and

value of the digital assets held by Exodus.

The new and rapidly evolving market for digital assets and related services is subject to a high degree of uncertainty.

The growth of the digital asset industry, as well as the blockchain networks on which digital assets rely, is subject to a high

degree of uncertainty regarding consumer adoption and long-term development. The slowing or stopping of the

development, general acceptance and adoption of digital assets and blockchain networks may deter or delay the acceptance

and adoption of the Exodus Platform or the applications on the Exodus Platform. The factors affecting the further

development of the digital asset industry, as well as blockchain networks, include, without limitation: worldwide growth in

the adoption and use of digital assets and other blockchain technologies; the regulatory environment relating to digital

assets and blockchains; the maintenance and development of the OSS protocol of blockchain networks; a decline in the

popularity or acceptance of digital assets and related services; the availability of other forms or methods of buying and

selling goods and services or trading assets, including new means of using government-backed currencies or existing

networks; and general economic conditions globally and in the United States. For example, there is currently relatively

limited use of digital assets in the retail and commercial marketplace in comparison to relatively extensive use as a store of

value. Digital assets are not currently a form of legal tender in the United States and have only recently become selectively

accepted as a means of payment for goods and services by some retail and commercial outlets, and the use of such assets

by consumers to pay such retail and commercial outlets remains limited. Banks and other established financial institutions

may refuse to process funds for digital asset transactions; process wire transfers to or from digital asset trading venues,

companies or service providers; or maintain accounts for persons or entities transacting in digital assets or providing related

services. In addition, some taxing jurisdictions, including the U.S., treat the use of certain digital assets as a medium of

exchange for goods and services to be a taxable sale of such assets, which could discourage the use of such assets as a

medium of exchange, especially for a holder of such assets that have appreciated in value.

Banks and financial institutions may not provide banking services, or may cut off services, to businesses that engage in

digital asset-related activities.

A number of companies that engage in Bitcoin and/or other digital asset-related activities have been unable to find banks or

financial institutions that are willing to provide them with bank accounts and other services. Similarly, a number of

companies and individuals or businesses associated with digital assets may have had and may continue to have their

existing bank accounts closed or services discontinued with financial institutions. To the extent that such events may

happen to us, they could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects or operations.

Risks Related to Regulation

We are an “emerging growth company” and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to

emerging growth companies will make our Class A common stock less attractive to investors.

We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act, which allows us to

take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are

not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to: (a) not being required to comply with the auditor attestation

requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (b) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive

compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statement, (c) exemptions from the requirements of holding nonbinding

advisory shareholder votes on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not

previously approved, and (d) extended transition periods available for complying with new or revised accounting

standards. We choose to take advantage of these exemptions and relying on any of these provisions may make it more

difficult for investors and securities analysts to evaluate our business and longer‑term performance. If some investors find

our Class A common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our Class A common

stock, and our stock price may be more volatile.

36

Table of contents

We will remain an emerging growth company ("EGC") until the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary

of the closing of our IPO (which would be fiscal year 2028, after which we would no longer benefit from reduced EGC

reporting requirements), although we will lose that status sooner if our revenues exceed $1.235 billion, if we issue more

than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in a three-year period, or if the market value of our common stock held by non-

affiliates exceeds $700 million as of June 30 of any future year. When we are no longer eligible for these scaled disclosures

and accommodations, we will incur additional costs and devote additional management time to comply with more

demanding reporting and governance requirements, including auditor attestation of internal controls, which could adversely

affect our results of operations and financial condition.

The regulatory regime governing blockchain technologies, digital assets and securities is uncertain and new regulations

or policies may materially adversely affect the development and utilization of the Exodus Platform.

As a general matter, laws and regulations of digital assets, blockchain technologies and digital asset exchanges are

currently undeveloped, vary among federal, state, local and international jurisdictions and are subject to significant

uncertainty and evolving interpretations. Specifically, the laws and regulations governing un-hosted self-custody wallet

providers like Exodus are currently undeveloped and many domestic and international laws and regulations that apply to

digital assets, blockchain technologies and digital exchanges may not be applicable to our core wallet business.

As digital assets, blockchain technologies and digital asset exchanges continue to expand in popularity and market size,

laws and regulations governing un-hosted self-custody wallet providers like Exodus may also develop or may be

reinterpreted to apply to us. For more information on our compliance efforts to prepare for such changes in laws and

regulations, see “Item 1. Business – Regulatory Environment.”

Our efforts to comply with applicable laws and regulations may be unsuccessful, and any actual or perceived failure to

meet applicable requirements may result in an adverse effect on our business. As an example of how the uncertain and

developing regulatory regime for digital assets, blockchain technologies and digital exchanges may impact our business as

a self-custody wallet provider, the FCA has published new rules relating to how digital assets can be marketed to

consumers. Specifically, companies seeking to promote digital assets in the U.K. to retail consumers are required to register

with the FCA or have any marketing approved by an authorized company. The Company cannot register with the FCA

because it operates a self-custodial wallet, and the rules are focused on asset custodians. Therefore, in anticipation of these

rules taking effect on October 8, 2023, the Company took steps before the deadline to comply with the new FCA rules by

modifying its marketing materials to avoid a determination by the FCA that it was promoting digital assets.

Even with the steps taken by the Company, and although at the time the Company believed it was in compliance with such

rules, the FCA utilized the broad nature of the new rules to state that the Company is not in compliance with the rules and

placed the Company on its Warning List in November 2023. In April 2024, following months of constructive dialogue with

the FCA, the FCA removed the Company from its Warning List. Had the Company failed to reach an agreement with the

FCA to be removed from the Warning List, it may have had a negative effect on the Company’s financial performance and

operations and, in the future, we could have been subject to a variety of civil, criminal and administrative fines, penalties,

orders and actions as a result of our business activities.

To the extent we are required to comply with new regulations, or if licenses or other authorizations are required in one or

more jurisdictions in which we operate or will operate, there is no guarantee that we will be able to comply with such

regulations or be granted such licenses or authorizations. We may need to change our business model to comply with these

legal or regulatory requirements, licensing and/or registration requirements in order to avoid violating applicable laws or

regulations. Various legislative and executive bodies in the U.S. and in other countries may, in the future, adopt laws,

regulations, guidance or other actions which may severely impact the development and growth of the Exodus Platform.

Failure by Exodus, or certain users of the Exodus Platform, to comply with any laws, rules and regulations, some of which

may not exist yet or are subject to interpretation and may be subject to change, could result in a variety of adverse

consequences, including civil penalties and fines.

Further, as digital assets, blockchain technologies and digital asset exchanges continue to expand in popularity and market

size, federal and state agencies have begun to regulate their use and operation. State regulators in New York, Texas, New

Hampshire, North Carolina, Washington and Illinois have created new regulatory frameworks, published guidance on

existing laws and regulations or amended their state’s statutes to include cryptocurrencies in their existing licensing

requirements. Federal law continues to evolve as well. The USDOT, the SEC, and the CFTC and the IRS have published

guidance on the treatment of digital assets. Both federal and state agencies have instituted enforcement actions against

those violating their interpretation of existing laws. There can be no assurance that we and our employees, contractors and

agents will not violate or otherwise fail to comply with such laws and regulations despite our policies and procedures,

including geo-blocking technology, designed to help monitor for and support compliance with existing and new laws and

regulations.

The regulations governing stablecoins in the United States are still being finalized and may materially affect the

development and utilization of the Exodus Platform.

In July 2025, President Trump signed the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins Act

("GENIUS Act") into law. The GENIUS Act will go into effect on January 18, 2027, or 120 days after the date on which

the primary Federal payment stablecoin regulators issue any final implementing regulations, if earlier. The GENIUS Act

establishes the first comprehensive federal regulatory framework for stablecoins by limiting issuance to authorized bank

and non-bank issuers, requiring one-to-one reserve backing in cash or short-term U.S. Treasury assets, mandating monthly

reserve disclosures and audits, imposing AML/KYC and supervisory compliance obligations, and providing priority rights

for stablecoin holders in insolvency. While the rulemaking process remains ongoing, many entities, including our third-

party service providers, are developing and deploying products with the intention of complying with finalized rules. Some

of the products within the Exodus Platform may be reliant on these third-party service providers. In the event that the

finalized rules impose unforeseen requirements, obligations, or prohibitions on these third-party service providers, their

planned or existing products may be adversely affected. This may have a direct or indirect material effect on our future

products or services that will be reliant on our third-party service providers complying with the GENIUS Act. In such an

event, it may cause significant changes, delays, or abandonment of certain products under development, which may

adversely affect our business. Additionally, any legislative amendments to the GENIUS Act prior to finalized rules could

have a significant impact on its implementation and consequently have an adverse effect on our business.

Certain digital assets traded using third-party services integrated within our platform or other programs could be viewed

as “securities” for purposes of federal or state regulations and could subject us to regulatory scrutiny, inquiries,

investigations, fines and other penalties.

Offers and sales of securities in the United States are required under the Securities Act to either be registered with the SEC

or to qualify for an exemption from federal registration and may also be required to be registered with applicable state

regulators. Certain digital assets could fall within the definition of a security. While we do not engage in trading of digital

assets on our platform or otherwise engage in the business of effecting transactions in securities for the account of others

on our platform, we receive compensation from the third-party exchanges that have connected to our Exchange Aggregator.

We have created two separate fee structures for the third-party exchanges that have connected to our Exchange Aggregator.

For services offered by API Providers to persons located in the United States, we charge fees based on a volume-based,

tiered monthly subscription structure payable to us in arrears once a month. For services offered by API Providers to

persons located outside the United States, we generally utilize a transaction-based structure to charge API Providers a

percentage of the underlying value of the digital asset transaction.

Certain digital assets could fall within the definition of a security, and the SEC has previously pursued enforcement actions

that argued that certain digital assets were securities. Under the current Administration, these lawsuits have largely been

dropped or have reached settlements. We receive compensation from the API Providers that have connected to our

Exchange Aggregator. It is possible that a receipt of compensation based on the percentage of digital assets exchanged

could be deemed to be the receipt of transaction-based fees for facilitating transactions in unregistered securities, and that

we could be found to be facilitating or engaged ourselves and in violation of the federal and state securities laws, which

could have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Historically, approximately 25%

of our volume has been located in the U.S. at any given time.

We do not believe we have an obligation to register as a transfer agent under the Exchange Act, but a regulator may

disagree.

It is possible that we could be viewed as a transfer agent for purposes of federal or state law. Because our platform allows

our users to connect through APIs to exchanges that permit the transfer of digital assets, it is possible that if such digital

assets were deemed to be securities, the SEC or another regulator could determine that we have acted as a transfer agent.

We do not consider ourselves a transfer agent under the Exchange Act because our platform does not provide the services

described in the definition of a “transfer agent” under the Exchange Act. However, it is possible that the SEC or another

regulator could disagree with our position. If that were the case, we could be forced to register as a transfer agent and

comply with applicable law, which could lead to our experiencing significant costs and could force us to change or cease

our operations. Any of these developments could have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and results of

operations.

38

Table of contents

We do not believe we have an obligation to register with the SEC as a clearing agency, but a regulator may disagree.

We have taken the position that we are not a clearing agency under the Exchange Act because the Exodus Platform does

not provide the services described in the definition of a “clearing agency” under the Exchange Act. However, it is possible

that the SEC or another regulatory agency could disagree with our position. If so, we could be forced to register as a

clearing agency and comply with applicable law, which could lead to significant costs and could force us to change or

cease our operations. Any of these developments could have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and

results of operations.

We do not believe we have an obligation to register the platform as an exchange or alternative trading system, though a

regulator may disagree.

Exchanges and alternative trading systems (“ATSs”) are networks that constitute, maintain or provide a marketplace or

facilities to aggregate orders of multiple purchasers and sellers of securities by displaying trading interests entered on the

system to users through consolidated quote screens or receiving orders for processing and execution. This does not include

systems that have only one seller for each security (e.g., the issuer), even if there are multiple buyers. Entities that are

engaged as an exchange or ATS, with respect to securities, are subject to federal registration and significant regulatory

oversight by the SEC and FINRA. We do not consider ourselves an exchange or ATS because our platform does not

provide the services that are undertaken by an exchange or ATS; however, it is possible that the SEC or another regulator

could disagree with our position and require us to register and comply with applicable law, which could lead to significant

costs and could force us to change or cease our operations.

We do not consider ourselves a statutory underwriter under the Securities Act, though a regulator may disagree.

We do not believe staking services offered to users of the Exodus Platform through third-party apps, such as Everstake, are

deemed to be securities offerings. If a regulator were to disagree, we could be deemed a “statutory underwriter” under

Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act and subject to additional regulatory obligations which could have a negative effect on

our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We do not believe we have an obligation to register the platform as a Futures Commission Merchant or a Commodity

Pool Operator, but a regulator may disagree.

A Futures Commission Merchant is a financial intermediary that takes customer orders to buy or sell futures, options on

futures, and swaps, handling client funds (margin) and executing trades on exchanges, acting as the crucial link between

individual traders and the complex derivatives markets. A Commodity Pool Operator is an individual or organization that

operates a "commodity pool"—a collective investment fund where multiple people pool their money together to trade in

commodities, futures contracts, options, or swaps. All Futures Commission Merchants, and most Commodity Pool

Operators, must register with both the CFTC and the National Futures Association. We have taken the position that we are

neither a Futures Commission Merchant nor a Commodity Pool Operator because our products and services, or those

offered by our third-party service providers through the Exodus Platform, are not activities that require registration under

the Commodity Exchange Act. However, it is possible that the CFTC or another regulator could disagree with our position

and require us to register and comply with applicable law, which could lead to significant costs and could force us to

change or cease our operations.

We are not registered as a money transmitter or money services business, and our business may be adversely affected if

we are required to do so.

Currently, money transmission regulations and interpretations at the federal level and varying approaches among the states

create a complex and rapidly evolving regulatory landscape that may change through legislative, regulatory, or interpretive

developments. It is possible that we could be found to be, or required to be registered as, a money services business

(“MSB”) at the federal level and/or a money transmitter at the state level. MSBs include, among other businesses, a person

providing money transmission services such as the acceptance and transmission of currency, funds or other value that

substitutes for currency from one person another location or person by any means. Because of the breadth of this definition,

FinCEN regulations state that whether a person is a money transmitter is ultimately a facts and circumstances

determination. In addition to registration obligations at the federal level, virtually every U.S. state (and the District of

Columbia) requires entities providing money transmission services to be licensed by the appropriate state agency

responsible for the supervision of financial institutions. State laws regulating money transmission are not uniform but

generally define money transmission to include the acceptance and transmission of money or monetary value to a location

within or outside the United States by any means.

Through its interpretations of money transmission regulations, particularly with respect to virtual assets, FinCEN has

published formal guidance indicating that without having total independent control over the value in users’ wallets, and

39

Table of contents

where the value stored in the wallet is the property of the owner, such a business may fall outside the scope of MSB

registration requirements. We believe that we do not meet the definition of an MSB because Exodus does not exercise total

independent control over the value in our users’ wallets, accept or transmit cryptocurrency on behalf of any user or

otherwise act as an intermediary for exchange of currencies by taking possession of such digital assets. For the same

reasons, we believe we are outside the scope of state licensing requirements of a money transmitter. However, if we were

deemed to be, or required to register as, an MSB at the federal level, and/or a money transmitter at the state level, we could

be subject to significant additional regulation and obligations, including the handling of substantial personal information of

users, which could affect our business and operations.

Regardless of the revenue structure for our Exchange Aggregator, we could be deemed a broker-dealer because certain

digital assets on the Exodus Platform may be deemed to be securities, and we would likely experience difficulty in

complying with the broker-dealer financial responsibility rules.

Because some digital assets may be considered securities by regulators, it is possible that our activities with respect to

digital assets, including digital asset staking, would cause us to be viewed as a “broker” or “dealer” under federal or state

law.

If we were deemed to be a broker-dealer, as defined in the federal securities laws, we would have to comply with a number

of regulatory requirements, including compliance with regulations that govern broker-dealer financial responsibility, such

as Exchange Act Rule 15c3-3(b), which relates to establishing and maintaining physical possession or control of a user’s

digital asset securities. It is likely that we would experience significant challenges in attempting to comply with these

regulations and may not be able to achieve such compliance. Due to the nature of digital asset securities, if we were

deemed to be a broker-dealer, it would likely be difficult for us to comply with the requirements to obtain and maintain

physical possession or control of all fully paid or excess securities carried for the account of users. In addition, obtaining an

exemption from such custody rules would likely result in significant financial costs and management resources and we may

not be able to obtain such an exemption. For example, in the ATS Role in the Settlement of Digital Asset Security Trades,

SEC Staff No-Action Letter (Sep. 25, 2020), the SEC Staff described an acceptable process for regulated self-custodial

ATS exchanges, but such process would be costly to implement and operate. It is likely that we would not be able to

implement and operate such a process. Should we be deemed to be a broker-dealer, and should we not be able to either

obtain an exemption from or implement acceptable processes for compliance with the broker-dealer financial responsibility

rules, we would be deemed not in compliance with the appropriate broker-dealer regulations. Such non-compliance would

likely have a materially adverse effect on our business and financial operations. Moreover, pursuant to Section 29(b) of the

Exchange Act, any contract made by Exodus in violation of any provision of the Exchange Act, including a sale of

securities deemed to have been made by Exodus as an unregistered broker-dealer to an investor, would be voidable at the

option of the investor. A successful claim by an investor would generally require the return of an amount equal to the

purchase price and rescission of the purchase contract.

Regardless of the revenue structure for digital asset staking offered through Everstake, we could be deemed a broker-

dealer if the services that users can obtain related to these digital assets are deemed securities under U.S. federal

securities law, and we would likely experience difficulty in complying with the broker-dealer financial responsibility

rules.

It is possible that our activities with respect to digital assets, including digital asset staking, would cause us to be viewed as

a “broker” or “dealer” under federal or state law. Because the services that users can obtain related to these digital assets

may be considered securities by regulators, the fees we receive from Everstake or other exchanges could potentially raise

regulatory issues related to whether the recipient of the fees is required to register as a broker-dealer under the Exchange

Act. We believe that our fee structure does not require us to register as a broker-dealer; however, there is no guarantee that

regulatory agencies will ultimately agree with our position, and we may be required to stop offering access to digital asset

staking.

Failure to comply with anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws and similar laws could subject us to penalties and other

adverse consequences.

We are subject to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (“FCPA”), the U.S. domestic bribery statute contained in

18 U.S. Code § 201 and possibly other anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws in countries outside of the United States where

we conduct our activities. Anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws have been enforced aggressively in recent years and are

interpreted to prohibit companies, their team members, agents, representatives, business partners and third-party

intermediaries from authorizing, offering or providing, directly or indirectly, improper payments or benefits to recipients in

the public or private sector.

We sometimes leverage third parties to sell our products and conduct our business abroad. Exodus, our team members,

agents, representatives, business partners and third-party intermediaries may have direct or indirect interactions with

40

Table of contents

officials and employees of government agencies, or state-owned or affiliated entities and we may be held liable for the

corrupt or other illegal activities of such parties even if we do not explicitly authorize such activities. As we increase our

international sales and business, our risks under these laws may increase.

Any allegations or violation of the FCPA or other applicable anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws could result in

whistleblower complaints, sanctions, settlements, prosecution, enforcement actions, fines, damages, adverse media

coverage, investigations, loss of export privileges, severe criminal or civil sanctions, suspension or debarment from

government contracts, all of which may have an adverse effect on our reputation, business, results of operations and

prospects. Responding to any investigation or action will likely result in a materially significant diversion of management’s

attention and resources, significant defense costs and other professional fees.

Furthermore, we rely on third parties for our KYC and other compliance obligations. If these third parties fail to effectively

provide these services, we may be subject to adverse consequences as described above.

Privacy concerns and laws or other domestic or foreign regulations may reduce the effectiveness of our platform and

adversely affect our business.

The laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate are evolving, may impose inconsistent or conflicting

standards among jurisdictions, can be subject to significant change and may result in ever-increasing regulatory and public

scrutiny and escalating levels of enforcement and sanctions.

For example, foreign countries and governmental bodies, including the European Union ("EU") and United Kingdom

("U.K.") and other jurisdictions in which we operate or conduct our business, have laws and regulations concerning the

collection, use, retention, security and transfer of the personal data of individuals in those jurisdictions. We may become

subject to GDPR and U.K. GDPR, which impose stringent privacy and data protection requirements, and could increase the

risk of non-compliance and the costs of providing our products and services in a compliant manner. Additionally, the

GDPR (covering the European Economic Area), U.K. GDPR and Swiss data protection regimes impose strict rules on the

transfer of personal data out of the EU, U.K. or Switzerland to a “third country,” including to the United States. As an un-

hosted self-custody wallet provider, we do not process the personal data of our customers and therefore, compliance with

these regimes do not currently have a material impact on our business. However, any actual or perceived breach of the

GDPR or U.K. GDPR in the future could further add to our compliance costs, limit how we process information, or lead to

reputational damage, regulatory investigations or fines. For example, if regulators assert that we have failed to comply with

the GDPR or U.K. GDPR, we may be subject to fines. We may also face civil claims, as well as associated costs, diversion

of internal resources, and reputational harm.

Aspects of the GDPR, U.K. GDPR, California Consumer Privacy Act, Swiss Secretariat for Economic Affairs and other

laws, regulations, industry standards and other obligations related to privacy, data protection and data security remain

uncertain. As such, compliance may require us to incur additional costs, modify our data handling practices and restrict our

business operations. It is also possible that these laws, regulations, industry standards and other obligations may be

interpreted and applied in a manner that is, or is alleged to be, inconsistent with our policies and procedures, the Exodus

Platform or our services. If so, in addition to the possibility of fines, lawsuits and other claims, we could be required to

modify the Exodus Platform or services or make changes to our business activities and practices. We may be unable to

make such changes and modifications in a commercially reasonable manner, or at all, and our ability to develop new

offerings and features could be limited.

Our efforts to comply with applicable laws, regulations and other obligations relating to privacy, data protection, and

information security may be unsuccessful, and any actual or perceived failure to meet applicable requirements may result in

an adverse effect on our business. We also expect that there will continue to be new proposed laws, regulations and

standards relating to privacy and data protection in various jurisdictions, and we cannot determine the impact such laws,

regulations and standards may have on our business.

We are subject to export control, import and sanctions laws and regulations that could impair our ability to compete in

international markets or subject us to liability if we violate such laws and regulations.

Under U.S. export control and sanctions laws and regulations, including EAR and various economic and trade sanctions

administered by OFAC, our business activities are subject to various restrictions related to the sale or supply of certain

products and services to U.S. embargoed or sanctioned countries, governments, persons and entities and require

authorization for the export of certain encryption items. Our precautions to prevent our software and services from being

accessed or provided in violation of such laws may not be successful, and we may have previously allowed our software to

be downloaded by individuals or entities potentially located in countries or territories subject to U.S. trade embargoes,

potentially in violation of U.S. sanctions laws. In December 2018, we received an administrative subpoena issued by

OFAC seeking information regarding potential transactions with individuals in Iran. In response, we conducted a

41

Table of contents

comprehensive review that covered all countries and territories subject to U.S. trade embargoes administered by OFAC.

We submitted a voluntary self-disclosure and subpoena responses regarding potential violations to OFAC, and took

remedial action designed to prevent similar activity from occurring in the future. In June 2024, OFAC issued a Pre-Penalty

Notice informing the Company that OFAC intends to impose a civil monetary penalty for alleged violations of U.S.

sanctions laws. The alleged violations involve the free download of the un-hosted self-custodial Exodus wallet by users

potentially located in Iran, Syria, Sudan, and the Crimea region of Ukraine, as well as the provision of customer support to

users potentially located in Iran and Crimea. We submitted a response to the Pre-Penalty Notice, which asserts a range of

factual and legal defenses to these allegations, and have continued to cooperate with OFAC. In 2025, we reached a

settlement agreement with OFAC to fully resolve the matter regarding individuals in Iran and as of December 31, 2025, the

civil monetary penalty was paid in full.

The limited rights of legal recourse available to us expose us and our investors to the risk of loss of our digital assets for

which no person is liable.

At this time, there is no specifically enumerated U.S. or foreign governmental, regulatory, investigative or prosecutorial

authority or mechanism through which to bring an action or complaint regarding missing or stolen digital assets. Although

law enforcement agencies like the Federal Bureau of Investigation have recovered stolen Bitcoin, recovery efforts have

been labor intensive. To the extent that we are unable to recover our losses from such action, error or theft, such events

could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, operations and potentially the value of any Bitcoin or other

digital assets we acquire or hold for our own account.

We may plan to launch products in the future that require regulatory licenses for which we may fail to obtain or

experience significant delays in obtaining.

Exodus, as a noncustodial wallet provider, does not currently possess the regulatory licenses that a custodial financial

intermediary does. Activities conducted through the Exodus Platform that leverage third-party service providers are, to the

extent necessary, reliant on licenses held by those providers. However, as we evaluate new products, we may conclude that

it is necessary for us to obtain and maintain regulatory licenses that we do not currently possess. In such instances, the

deployment of certain future products may be dependent on our ability to obtain those licenses. In the event that we are

unable to obtain, or experience significant delays in obtaining, those licenses, our future products may be significantly

delayed or abandoned, which may lead to significant costs and have an adverse effect on our business.

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Class A Common Stock

The market prices and trading volume of our shares of Class A common stock may experience rapid and substantial

volatility which could cause purchasers of our Class A common stock to incur substantial losses.

Shares of our Class A common stock may experience rapid and substantial price and trading volume volatility unrelated to

our financial performance, which could cause purchasers of our Class A common stock to incur substantial losses. Extreme

fluctuations in the market price and trading volume of our Class A common stock may occur in response to:

•strong and atypical retail investor interest, including on social media platforms and online forums;

•direct access by retail investors to broadly available trading platforms;

•the amount and status of short interest in our securities;

•access to margin debt;

•trading in options, derivatives or any other related hedging on our Class A common stock;

•actual or anticipated variations in our operating and financial performance, including projected operational and

financial results and failure to meet those projections;

•our inability to pay dividends or other distributions or repurchase shares of our Class A common stock;

•changes in market valuations of similar companies;

•market reaction to any additional equity, debt or other securities that we may issue in the future, and which may

or may not dilute the holdings of our existing shareholders;

•any major change in our Board, management or key personnel;

•actions by institutional or significant shareholders;

•speculation in the press or investment community about our company or industry;

•strategic actions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions or other investments;

42

Table of contents

•legislative, administrative, regulatory or other actions affecting our business or industry, including positions

taken by the IRS;

•investigations, proceedings or litigation that involve or affect us;

•the occurrence of any of the other risk factors included in this report;

•general market and economic conditions; and

•other trading factors.

We cannot assure you that the market price and trading volume of our Class A common stock will not fluctuate or decline

significantly in the future, in which case you could incur substantial losses. Further, the market price and trading volume of

our shares of Class A common stock may fluctuate dramatically, regardless of any developments in our business.

Sales of substantial amounts of our Class A common stock in the public market, or the perception that they might occur,

could reduce the price that our Class A common stock might otherwise attain.

We cannot predict what effect, if any, future issuances by us of our Class A common stock will have on the market price of

our Class A common stock. In addition, shares of our Class A common stock that we may issue in connection with any

acquisition may not be subject to resale restrictions. The market price of our Class A common stock could drop

significantly if certain large holders of our Class A common stock, or recipients of our Class A common stock in

connection with any acquisition, sell all or a significant portion of their shares of Class A common stock or are perceived

by the market as intending to sell these shares other than in an orderly manner. In addition, these sales could impair our

ability to raise capital through the sale of additional Class A common stock in the capital markets. Furthermore, our

directors, executive officers, and other team members may sell shares of our Class A common stock, including shares

received pursuant to equity incentive plans, during periodic trading windows. Because of the limited trading volume of our

Class A common stock, concentrated sales when the trading window opens have in the past caused, and may in the future

cause, the market price of our Class A common stock to decline.

The dual class structure of our common stock has the effect of concentrating voting control with certain shareholders,

including our executive officers, team members and directors and their affiliates, which will limit your ability to

influence the outcome of important transactions, including a change in control.

Our authorized common stock is divided into two series, denominated as “Class A common stock” and “Class B common

stock.” Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share. Each share of Class B common stock is

entitled to ten votes per share. Holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote together as a single

class on all matters (including the election of directors) submitted to a vote of shareholders, unless otherwise required by

law or our amended and restated certificate of incorporation.

As of December 31, 2025, the shareholders holding shares of Class B common stock collectively beneficially own shares

representing approximately 95% of the voting power of our outstanding common stock. Messrs. Richardson and

Castagnoli, each an executive officer and director of the Company, control approximately 93% of the voting power of our

outstanding common stock. Because of our dual class structure, we anticipate that, for the foreseeable future, these

individuals will continue to be able to control all matters submitted to our shareholders for approval, including the election

and removal of directors.

These holders of Class B common stock may vote in a way which may be adverse to your interests. This concentrated

control may have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of our company, could deprive our

shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of our company and might

ultimately affect the market price of our Class A common stock. In addition, because the holders of our Class B common

stock control a substantial majority of the voting power of our outstanding common stock, they have the ability to approve

matters requiring shareholder approval by written consent without a meeting and without the participation of other

shareholders. As a result, corporate actions requiring shareholder approval, such as the adoption or amendment of equity

incentive plans, may be approved solely by our controlling shareholders, which may limit your ability to influence those

decisions.

Each share of Class B common stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into one share of Class A

common stock. In addition, each share of Class B common stock will convert automatically into one share of Class A

common stock upon any transfer, whether or not for value, except for certain transfers described in our amended and

restated certificate of incorporation, including, without limitation, transfers for tax and estate planning purposes, so long as

the transferring holder of Class B common stock continues to hold exclusive voting and dispositive power with respect to

the shares transferred. All shares of Class B common stock will convert automatically into shares of Class A common stock

upon the date on which the Class B common stock ceases to represent at least 10% of the total voting power of our

43

Table of contents

outstanding common stock. The conversion of shares of Class B common stock into shares of Class A common stock will

have the effect, over time, of increasing the relative voting power of those holders of Class B common stock who retain

their shares in the long term, which may primarily include our executive officers and directors.

Provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws could discourage potential acquisition proposals and

could deter or prevent a change in control.

Certain provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws could

have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging another person from acquiring control of our company, delaying or

preventing changes in control of our management team, Board, governance or policy and could limit the price that some

investors might be willing to pay for shares of our common stock. These provisions prohibit our shareholders from calling

special meetings of our shareholders; include the absence of cumulative voting; authorize our Board to designate and issue

one or more series of preferred stock without shareholder approval, the terms of which may be determined at the sole

discretion of our Board; reflect the dual class structure for our common stock; and restrict the forum for certain litigation

against us to certain federal or Delaware state courts. These provisions apply even if the offer may be considered beneficial

by some shareholders and could delay or prevent an acquisition that our Board determines is in our best interests and that

of our shareholders.

We are not subject to the provisions of Section 21.606 of the Texas Business Organizations Code, which could

negatively affect your investment.

In general, Section 21.606 of the Texas Business Organizations Code (“Section 21.606”) prohibits a publicly held Texas

corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “affiliated shareholder” for a period of three years after the

date of the transaction in which the person became an affiliated shareholder, unless the business combination is approved in

a prescribed manner. We elected in our certificate of incorporation to not be subject to the provisions of Section 21.606.

This may make us more vulnerable to takeovers that are completed without the approval of our Board and/or without

giving us the ability to prohibit or delay such takeovers as effectively.

We are currently a “controlled company” and, as a result, qualify for and could rely on exemptions from certain

corporate governance requirements.

Our directors and officers currently have beneficial ownership of a majority of the total voting power. As a result, we are

considered a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the NYSE American and

are exempt from certain stock exchange corporate governance requirements that would otherwise apply, which include (i)

the requirement that a majority of the board of directors consists of independent directors, (ii) requirement that director

nominees be selected either by the independent directors or a nomination committee comprised solely of independent

directors and (iii) the requirement that the compensation of officers be determined, or recommended to the board of

directors for determination, either by the independent directors or a compensation committee comprised solely of

independent directors. We have elected to be exempt from some or all corporate governance requirements of the NYSE

American and, as a result, you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to

all the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE American.

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock Tokens

The distributed ledger technology used by our Transfer Agent, Securitize, and our co-transfer agent, Superstate

(together, our “Transfer Agents”), is novel with respect to our Common Stock Tokens and has been subject to limited

testing and usage.

Each share of Class A common stock has a corresponding Common Stock Token, and the Common Stock Tokens are

maintained by our Transfer Agents. The infrastructure that facilitates peer-to-peer transactions in our Common Stock

Tokens is a novel system and has been subject to only limited testing and usage, which subjects it to the following risks,

including:

•the possibility of undiscovered technical flaws;

•the possibility that cryptographic security measures that authenticate transactions and the distributed ledger could

be compromised;

•the possibility that new technologies or services inhibit access to the blockchain network used by the Common

Stock Tokens; and

•the possibility that our Transfer Agents do not competently manage transfers, potentially disrupting transfers of

Common Stock Tokens.

44

Table of contents

The regulations governing tokenized securities in the United States are evolving and could introduce material costs of

compliance.

Tokenized securities is an ongoing topic of conversation amongst various regulators, including the SEC. As regulators

contemplate additional rules or guidance to help facilitate the issuance and trading of tokenized securities, additional

regulatory requirements could be imposed on the corresponding Common Stock Token that comprises each share of our

Class A common stock. This could include changes to regulations affecting a token holder’s ability to transfer or custody

such Common Stock Tokens in their wallet. While it remains speculative as to how regulators may approach these issues,

there could be significant requirements imposed on either our Transfer Agents or Exodus that may negatively impact token

holders.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

Not Applicable.

Item 1C. Cybersecurity

Our cybersecurity program is designed to protect our information, and that of our customers, against cybersecurity threats

that may result in adverse effects on the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our information systems. Our

cybersecurity risk management program, which is integrated into our overall enterprise risk management program, includes

policies, processes and technologies to assess, identify and manage risks from cybersecurity threats and leverages the

National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework.

Governance

Our Board, with assistance from its Audit Committee, oversees the Company’s enterprise risk management process,

including the management of risks arising from cybersecurity threats. Our Audit Committee receives reports on significant

cybersecurity developments from the management team responsible for overseeing the Company’s risk and cybersecurity

management processes, including our Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Security Officer. We also have protocols by

which certain cybersecurity incidents are escalated within the Company and, where appropriate, reported to our Board in a

timely manner.

At the management level, our Chief Security Officer leads the team responsible for implementing, monitoring and

maintaining our cybersecurity risk management program across our business. He has extensive cybersecurity knowledge

and skills gained from over 20 years of relevant work experience, including various leadership and management roles in

information technology at the Company and elsewhere. He also has a Master of Science in information systems.

Risk Management and Strategy

Our cybersecurity program includes technical safeguards, including automated tools managed and monitored by our

cybersecurity team. Additionally, we regularly conduct penetration and vulnerability testing and tabletop exercises, along

with regular team member training on cybersecurity matters. We also employ systems and processes designed to oversee,

identify, and reduce the potential impact of a security incident at a third-party vendor, service provider or customer or

otherwise implicating the third-party technology and systems we use.

We engage independent third-party consultants and other service providers from time to time to conduct security

assessments and audits and to assess and enhance our cybersecurity practices. These third parties support our efforts to

assess the effectiveness of our cybersecurity controls, identify potential vulnerabilities, benchmark our practices against

industry standards and enhance our overall cybersecurity posture.

While we have not identified any material cybersecurity threats or incidents since the beginning of the last fiscal year that

have had a material adverse effect on our business, there can be no guarantee that we will not be the subject of future

successful attacks, threats or incidents. For more information on our cybersecurity related risks, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors

Risks Related to Our Business – Our business could be negatively impacted by cybersecurity threats and other

disruptions.”.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction

with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this report. The following discussion contains

forward-looking statements based upon current plans, expectations and beliefs that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual

Overview of Our Business

We are engaged principally in the business of creating and distributing self-custodial wallets for digital assets. Due to a

majority of our revenue being derived from services provided by API Providers to persons located outside the United

States pursuant to a transaction-based structure, our profitability is dependent on a number of factors including the pricing

of digital assets, the volume of transactions and the quality of our third-party relationships.

Our revenues are primarily derived from digital asset-related transactions and consist of fees from third-party API

agreements. These API agreements typically consist of transaction-based contracts and tiered subscription contracts where

fees are generated based on transaction volume which is primarily driven by users interacting with the API providers.

Our expenses primarily consist of:

•Technology, development, user support;

•Amortization expense relating to software development; and

•General and administrative expenses (primarily including administrative, legal, financial operations, information

technology services, marketing and advertising expenses).

Based on the services offered and transactions conducted by API Providers, the following table shows the digital assets that

are most material to our business by revenue.

Material Characteristics of the Digital Assets Material to our Business by Revenue

•Bitcoin: Bitcoin is a digital asset that can be transferred among participants on the Bitcoin network on a peer-to-peer

basis. Bitcoin is primarily used to pay for goods and services and is generally considered a substitute for gold, cash or

forms of electronic payment. Unlike other means of electronic payments, it can be transferred without the use of a

central party, making its management “decentralized.” A material characteristic of the digital asset is also its scarcity,

as only 21 million Bitcoin will ever exist. Bitcoin is the most widely accepted cryptocurrency by merchants, although

overall adoption for retail and commercial services currently remains limited and Bitcoin is often converted to a fiat

currency, such as the U.S. dollar, immediately upon acceptance by the merchant.

•Tether: Tether is a cryptocurrency and stablecoin intended to offer price stability in the cryptocurrency market and to

hold stable value against certain fiat currencies, including the U.S. dollar, Euro and Mexican peso. Tether tokens are

widely adopted across major exchanges and wallets, and the U.S. Dollar pegged coin is named USDT. Generally,

stablecoins are backed by the value of a different asset to keep the price stable, including fiat currency,

cryptocurrency or commodities like gold. Different stablecoins have adopted different methods of stabilization, but

Tether is backed by cash equivalents and short-term deposits. Unlike Bitcoin and Ether, Tether is a centralized

cryptocurrency managed and issued by Tether. While Tether is meant to maintain a stable value, it is not risk-free and

is not immune to fluctuations in price. A range of factors may cause Tether to “depeg” from the pegged asset,

including supply and demand, market volatility, market confidence and adoption, counterparty risk, liquidity risk and

technology risk. As a result, it is possible for Tether to fluctuate significantly in value over time, particularly when the

value of the U.S. dollar changes due to inflation.

•Ether: Ethereum is an open-source decentralized blockchain network that supports the creation of apps, custom

tokens, and general programs using smart contracts. The primary cryptocurrency of the Ethereum blockchain is Ether,

which is used to power the network. The Ethereum blockchain is home to thousands of fungible and non-fungible

tokens, as well as many other decentralized apps focused on building out Web3, which is a decentralized internet.

•USDC: USDC is a cryptocurrency and stablecoin backed by fully reserved assets. It is intended to hold stable value

against the U.S. dollar and is commonly used as a method of payment in the digital asset markets, including for

Bitcoin. Unlike Bitcoin, USDC is a centralized cryptocurrency issued by the Centre Consortium (a group co-founded

by Coinbase Global Inc. and Circle Internet Financial Limited). Similar to other stablecoins, USDC is subject to risk

and price fluctuations.

Business-to-Business Partnerships

XO Swap

We contract with third parties to provide them with a connection to our Exchange Aggregator and, in turn, receive both

transaction-based and subscription-based fees in accordance with our agreement with the applicable API Provider. For

purposes of our API agreements, the API Provider does not make a distinction between the source of the user, meaning we

earn transaction-based or subscription-based revenue, as applicable, from our API Providers in connection with both

Exodus users and users sourced through XO Swap. For example, in September 2024, we announced our second XO Swap

partnership with Ledger to introduce XO Swap to Ledger Live™. This partnership allows Ledger users to access our

Exchange Aggregator directly from their Ledger self-custody wallets. As a result of this integration, Ledger users have

access to all services offered and performed by our API Providers for over 30,000 digital assets, with any swapped digital

assets delivered directly to the user’s Ledger wallet. Like transactions involving Exodus users, XO Swap transactions occur

as on-chain transactions that are transparent and secure.

Passkeys

In July 2024, Exodus announced the launch of Passkeys Wallet. The Passkeys Wallet is a self-custody multi-chain wallet

that allows developers to embed a digital asset wallet into their dApp or platform. Passkeys allows users to create and fund

their embedded wallet directly within the application they are using, without the need for cumbersome seed phrases,

browser extensions, or email verifications and is designed to provide a frictionless and secure user experience to further

accelerate Web3 onboarding and dApp integration. This integration is designed to simplify the process and elevate security

for users, while providing a seamless multi-chain experience that supports Bitcoin, Polygon, Solana, Ethereum, Arbitrum

When a user creates a Passkeys Wallet, a private key for the wallet is generated and encrypted with an encryption key. This

encryption key is required to decrypt the private key and access the wallet. The encryption key is stored by the service used

by the user in what is referred to as a “passkey.” Exodus does not store or have access to the passkey. For example, if a

user has an Apple device, Apple storage infrastructure will store the user’s passkey whereas a user with a Google device

will have its passkey stored using Google’s storage infrastructure. The passkey is secured with the same authentication

method (Face ID, Touch ID, PIN, or password) that the user uses to unlock their device. Whenever a user wants to access

their Passkeys Wallet, the user can access the Passkeys Wallet by using the same authentication method the user uses to

unlock their device. This means users can create, connect, and access a digital asset wallet directly from a platform like a

dApp without downloading and installing anything, without an account, without email or SMS verification, and without

needing to remember or write down their private keys or 12-word secret recovery phrase.

2025 Highlights

During 2025, we made progress around our main growth initiatives, which are Exodus Platform User Growth and

Marketing, Partnership Strategy, and Acquisitions.

Exodus Pay

On December 9, 2025, Exodus announced the planned launch of Exodus Pay, a self-custodial platform integrated directly

into the Exodus app. Exodus Pay connects users directly with industry-leading third-party service providers to allow users

to spend digital assets through a virtual card or Apple Pay, send digital dollars or stablecoins to peers, and earn rewards, all

while maintaining control of their assets. This launch, anticipated for early 2026, is the first step in Exodus’ evolution from

a self-custodial digital asset wallet into a single app for holding, spending, and transferring digital dollars, without

compromising self-custody.

Tokenization of Class A Shares

On October 20, 2025, the Company announced its shareholders may choose to hold their Exodus Class A shares with

common stock tokens on the Solana blockchain, enabled through co-transfer agent Superstate.

Gratitud Interna Ltd.

On November 10, 2025, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Gratitud Interna Ltd., a Latin American crypto

payments platform. This asset purchase expanded our payments capabilities by adding technology in development, an

assembled workforce, and a trade name supporting crypto-based merchant transactions in the Latin America market.

Master Digital Currency Loan Agreement

On November 17, 2025, the Company incurred indebtedness in the principal amount of $60.0 million ("November 2025

Loan") pursuant to a loan term sheet executed under its Master Digital Currency Loan Agreement with Galaxy Digital

LLC. As of December 31, 2025, the November 2025 Loan has been fully repaid.

Stock Purchase Agreement

On November 24, 2025, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with W3C

Corp. (the “Target”) and Garth Howat (“Seller”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire from Seller all of the

issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Target. The Target and its subsidiaries include Monavate Holdings

Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Monavate”) and Baanx.com Ltd. and Baanx US Corp (collectively, “Baanx”).

Monavate is a global leader in payment solutions for FinTech, Web3 and global enterprises, and Baanx is a leading

provider of non-custodial cards and Business-to-Business-to-Consumer digital asset services.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company will acquire the Target for aggregate cash consideration of

approximately $175 million, subject to customary adjustments for indebtedness, cash, working capital and transaction

expenses. If completed, the acquisition is expected to enhance our payments infrastructure and support the continued

development of regulated fiat and crypto financial services.

Partnership Strategy

We collectively refer to our XO Swap and Passkeys product offerings as business-to-business partnerships.

XO Swap – delivers our Exchange Aggregator technology to partner companies. Revenues generated from our business-to-

business partnerships increased from 9% of total revenue in fiscal year 2024 to 16% of total revenue in fiscal year 2025.

We have built our Exchange Aggregator over the past decade, and we believe these results have validated the value that it

can provide partners as well. Over the next few years, we intend to develop more products to offer, leveraging the

experience and technology we have built for our own platform to add value to the digital asset and broader FinTech

communities.

Passkeys Technology - We are actively building out our Passkeys Wallet technology. While we are still evaluating

potential use cases for this technology, we believe that its frictionless onboarding capability provides Exodus with

newfound integration potential in viral products and trends – even viral Web2 applications and trends. We plan to continue

investing in this technology and expect future increases to our development costs as a result.

Acquisitions

Additionally, we have identified a pipeline of additional targets. While there can be no guarantees that we will be able to

acquire any of the potential targets on acceptable terms or at all, we believe we are well positioned to successfully execute

on our acquisition strategy by leveraging our scale, access to capital markets, and overall liquidity position. To that end, we

have incurred transaction-related expenses during 2025 and expect that trend to continue in the near term.

Known Trends and Uncertainties

Stablecoins - We expect stablecoin adoption will increase globally as cryptocurrencies become more widely used in the

future. User adoption of cryptocurrency networks for payments, or lack thereof, as well as worldwide government

regulation, both friendly and adversarial, have and will continue to influence global stablecoin usage. Stablecoins will not

function without a digital asset wallet. The Company’s wallet supports a wide variety of stablecoins, including the largest

coins such as Tether’s USDT and Circle’s USDC. Additionally, by supporting over 40 different networks, including large

networks like Ethereum, Solana, and Tron, we believe Exodus is positioned to natively support stablecoins wherever

current and future use cases emerge. Furthermore, Exodus’ XO Swap product already provides the Company’s partners a

solution for swapping between stablecoins and between blockchains.

Table of contents

Cloud based infrastructure expense – Cloud infrastructure expenses were $7.8 million, an increase of $0.1 million for the

year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the prior year. We anticipate increased cloud infrastructure expenses as the

platform continues to grow due to increased database capacity and new users.

Investment in human capital - Costs related to investment in human capital (including recruiting costs, salary, incentive and

compensation costs) were $55.6 million, an increase of $10.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to

the prior year. As the Exodus Platform continues to expand, we anticipate the need to add more team members to

accommodate the growth in our business, which is expected to materially increase expenses as a result of the impact on the

human capital costs described above. Human capital costs are also expected to increase due to the need to add additional

team members to address compliance with the evolving regulatory environment, including as a publicly traded company.

Marketing expenses – Marketing-related costs were $11.0 million, an increase of $6.2 million for the year ended

December 31, 2025, compared to the prior year. In the year ended December 31, 2025, the increase was primarily due to

increased spending on website advertisements targeted at digital asset focused spaces and on online platforms, such as the

App Store, and marketing agency expenses. To date, we have primarily focused our marketing strategy toward user growth.

We continue to evaluate our marketing strategy, and in the future, may decide to refocus the current strategy to a more

competitive approach, which would be expected to substantially increase marketing-related expenses.

Changes in tax laws – We operate in various jurisdictions and are subject to changes in applicable tax laws, treaties or

regulations in those jurisdictions. A material change in the tax laws, treaties or regulations, or their interpretation, of any

jurisdiction with which we do business, or in which we have significant operations, could adversely affect us. For example,

the new Pillar 2 approach, which came into effect in 2023 in certain jurisdictions, will establish a global minimum tax rate

of 15%, such that multinational enterprises with an effective tax rate in a jurisdiction below this minimum rate will need to

pay additional tax. While many aspects of the application of Pillar 2 remain to be clarified, including how the jurisdictions

in which we operate, and those in which we and our subsidiaries are based, choose to implement the Organization for

Economic Cooperation and Development’s approach in their tax treaties and domestic tax laws, we do not expect Pillar 2 to

apply in 2025. On July 4, 2025, the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" (P.L. 119‑21) was enacted into law. The legislation

reinstates and extends several provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including permanent 100% bonus

depreciation, enhanced Section 179 expensing, full R&D expense deduction for domestic expenditures and modification to

the international tax framework. The primary impact of the legislation is the acceleration of deductions related to research

and development costs incurred in the U.S. which did not have a material impact on the Company’s effective tax rate

during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Growth Initiative and Transaction-Related Expenses

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred $8.3 million in expenses associated with the evaluation

and negotiation of, and travel due to, prospective business acquisitions. The Company expects to continue evaluating

potential acquisition opportunities during 2026, which may result in additional transaction-related expenses. These

expenses primarily include legal and advisory costs and are recorded within general and administrative expenses in the

accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income. There were no growth initiative

expenses in the year ended December 31, 2024.

In addition, the Company incurred $16.6 million and $5.7 million in revenue sharing expenses related to its business-to-

business partnerships for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. While the Company does not control

the operations or growth of its partners, their success can directly impact our own performance. As these partners grow or

as new partnerships are formed, our associated revenue sharing expenses are expected to increase. These expenses are

included within technology, development, and user support expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and

comprehensive (loss) income.

Monthly Active Users

To measure user activity, we primarily rely on the number of Monthly Active Users ("MAUs") of our Exodus Platform.

We define an MAU as any user with activity history in any month. A user has “activity history” if, in the applicable

calendar month, the user performed any activity within the application such as opening their application to check digital

asset prices, reading news, or accessing the services of our API Providers. MAUs provide a measurement of user

engagement, allowing management to compare engagement over time. MAUs consist of both funded wallets and unfunded

wallets. Because Exodus users do not have accounts, users do not close an account. Therefore, users may be inactive one

month and active the next as they re-engage with the platform. A growing MAUs measurement over time indicates that

interest in the Exodus Platform is increasing. Management views increasing interest in the Exodus Platform over time as a

key indicator of increasing revenue, especially for MAUs outside of the United States as the likelihood of revenue

generating transactions increases as user interest increases.

53

Table of contents

MAUs were 1.5 million and 2.3 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, reflecting a year over year

decrease of 0.8 million, or 35%. We believe this decrease in MAUs was primarily attributable to a declining consumer-

related sentiment and a lower cryptocurrency market cap compared to the prior year, leading to decreased trading activity,

as well as a nonrecurring, one-time Passkeys Wallet promotional campaign that took place near the close of 2024. Our

strategic focus remains on expanding our active user base, improving app features, and expanding our business-to-business

partnerships. We believe that over the long term, consumer interest in digital assets and digital asset markets will again

increase. However, during any given period, we cannot be certain that our MAU growth efforts will be effective or that

interest in digital assets will remain at current reduced levels, decline or increase.

Quarterly Funded Users

In addition to MAUs, we utilize Quarterly Funded Users ("QFUs") to assess user trends and market sentiment. QFUs are

defined as unique users with an Exodus wallet that was funded at any point prior to or during the fiscal quarter and during

which the user remained active, i.e. opening the app during the period. A wallet is considered “funded” if it holds a non-

zero balance of any supported digital asset, QFUs offer a longer-term view of engagement by capturing users who have

already funded their wallets.

QFUs totaled 1.7 million and 1.9 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, reflecting a decrease of 0.2

million, or 11%. This decrease reflects a reduction in user engagement as the cryptocurrency market cap has decreased

from the end of 2024. Of our two user metrics, we expect MAUs to fluctuate more significantly in response to app usage

patterns and broader market conditions. In contrast, QFUs provide a longer-term view of engagement, representing a more

stable cohort—users with funded wallets actively participating in the Exodus Platform.

We consider both MAUs and QFUs to be Key Performance Indicators that provide insight into user activity and platform

engagement. While MAUs may fluctuate more significantly due to changes in app usage patterns and broader market

conditions, QFUs offer a longer-term view of engagement by capturing users with actively funded wallets. Management

uses these metrics to monitor platform health, inform product and marketing strategies, and assess user trends over time.

Revenues increased $5.3 million, or 4.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the year ended

December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by exchange aggregation revenue, which increased $3.6 million, or

3.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, which was primarily

attributable to volume exchange growth related to our business-to-business partner efforts. Non-exchange aggregation (i.e.,

54

Table of contents

fiat onboarding, staking, consulting, and other) revenue increased $1.7 million, or 18.3%, for the year ended December 31,

2025, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily driven by higher staking revenue and new reward

mechanisms. For the year ended December 31, 2025, five API Providers each accounted for more than 10% of our

revenues and collectively generated 69.1% of revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2024, five API providers each

accounted for more than 10% each of revenues and collectively generated 77.4% of revenue.

The following table summarizes the revenue by users of the platform and the business-to-business partnerships for the

years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

(Amounts in thousands, except percentages)	December 31, 2025				December 31, 2024

Total	$121,551		100.0%		$116,272		100.0%

Technology, development and user support expenses increased $16.9 million, or 36.7%, for the year ended December 31,

2025, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $11.0 million increase in

partner fee expense related to our new business-to-business partnerships, a $5.4 million increase in team member

compensation and benefit expense as a result of increased salary for newly hired management positions, a $1.4 million

decrease in capitalized labor and a $0.3 million increase in consulting costs as a result of the continued expansion of our

platform and addition of new users, offset by a $1.7 million decrease in depreciation and amortization expense

General and administrative expenses increased $26.8 million, or 67.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared

to the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to a $6.4 million increase in legal and consulting

expenses, a $6.2 million increase in marketing expenses, a $5.0 million increase in team member compensation and benefit

expenses, a $5.0 million increase in meeting and travel expenses, a $2.5 million increase in regulatory expenses, a $2.0

million increase in expense associated with the issuance of warrants, a $1.6 million increase in political contributions and a

$0.9 million increase in subscription expense, partially offset by a decrease of $3.0 million in foreign currency expenses.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized net realized losses from exchange of digital assets of

$2.1 million and net unrealized losses from remeasurement of digital assets of $16.8 million. For the year ended

December 31, 2024, the Company recognized net realized gains from exchange of digital assets of $7.7 million and net

unrealized gains from remeasurement of digital assets of $88.4 million.

Income tax benefit was $9.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to an income tax expense of $17.9

million for the year ended December 31, 2024. In 2025 and 2024, state and local income taxes in California and Nebraska

comprise the majority of the domestic state and local income taxes, net of federal tax. The effective tax rate during 2025

was 45.0% compared to 13.6% in 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the change from the statutory tax rate to

the effective rate was primarily due to a benefit related to stock option exercises net of non-deductible executive

compensation, U.S. Foreign Derived Intangible Income and research and development tax credits partially offset by

nondeductible expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the change from the statutory tax rate to the effective rate

was primarily due to a benefit related to stock option exercises, net of non-deductible executive compensation, and U.S.

Foreign Derived Intangible Income partially offset by change in valuation allowance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our primary source of funding is from API fee revenues. We fund our operational costs from these revenues. Our primary

use of funds is payment of our operating costs, which consist mostly of compensation and benefit expenses and security

costs. As of the date of this filing, based on current operating plans, we believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents,

USDC and digital assets, together with cash generated from our operations, will be sufficient to fund our operations and

anticipated growth for the next twelve months and thereafter for the foreseeable future. We may seek to opportunistically

raise additional capital through private or public equity securities offerings in the future. From time to time, we may also

enter into financing arrangements. For example, on November 17, 2025, we entered into a Loan Term Sheet under its

Amended and Restated Master Digital Currency Loan Agreement with Galaxy Digital LLC, pursuant to which the

Company borrowed $60.0 million (the “Galaxy Loan”). As of December 31, 2025, the Galaxy Loan was paid in full.

We expect that increased market acceptance of digital assets and blockchain technology, combined with our expected

continued growth of the Exodus Platform, market acceptance of our services and ability to attract and retain users on our

platform, should support our ability to generate sufficient cash to meet our requirements and plans for cash.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated:

(in thousands)	December 31, 2025		December 31, 2024		$ Change
Net cash used in operating activities	$(25,561)		$(12,042)		$(13,519)
Net cash provided by investing activities	$7,657		$43,887		$(36,230)
Net cash used in financing activities	$(15,041)		$(5,338)		$(9,703)
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents	$(32,945)		$26,507		$(59,452)

Net Cash Used In Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities increased by $13.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared with

the year ended December 31, 2024. The primary drivers of the increase were a change in losses on digital assets of $115.0

million, a decrease of $13.3 million in operating activities settled in digital assets and USDC, an increase of $7.0 million to

share-based compensation, an increase of $2.0 million in expense associated with the issuance of warrants, partially offset

by a change in net loss of $124.3 million and deferred tax benefit of $27.7 million. The primary drivers of the decrease in

operating activities settled in digital assets and USDC included an increase in revenues of $11.3 million and a decrease in

currency translation adjustments of $2.1 million, offset by a $20.7 million increase in expenses and a decrease in accounts

receivable and other current assets of $6.8 million.

Net Cash Provided By Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities decreased by $36.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared

with the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily related to an $80.0 million increase to loans

receivable, an increase of $28.1 million in net disposals of digital assets and an increase of $16.0 million of net change in

treasury bills investments and redemptions.

Net Cash Used In Financing Activities       

Net cash used in financing activities increased by $9.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared with the

year ended December 31, 2024. This was primarily driven by cash used for the repurchase of shares of our common stock

to pay employee withholding taxes.

Total Digital Assets and Liquid Assets

The following tables show the Company’s holdings of digital assets and cash and cash equivalents (including treasury bills

with a maturity date of less than three months), USDC, and treasury bills with a maturity date of greater than three months.

Material Capital Commitments

Exodus currently has no material commitments for capital expenditures. At this time, we currently believe that our cash on

hand, as well as the sources of liquidity described above, will be sufficient to fund our operations through the next twelve

months and thereafter for the foreseeable future.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial

statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP").

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect

the reported amounts in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

Certain of our accounting policies, as discussed below, involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity in their

application and, therefore, represent the critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial

statements. If different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, the results could be materially different from our

reported results. For additional discussion of our critical accounting estimates, as well as our significant accounting

policies, see “Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements in this report.

57

Table of contents

Income Taxes

We determined that income taxes involve critical estimates based on management’s significant judgments to determine our

provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax

assets, including, for example, compliance with the 2017 United States Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. On July 4, 2025, the “One

Big Beautiful Bill Act” (P.L. 119‑21) was enacted into law. The legislation reinstates and extends several provisions of the

2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including permanent 100% bonus depreciation, enhanced Section 179 expensing, full research

and development expense deduction for domestic expenditures and modification to the international tax framework. The

primary impact of the legislation is the acceleration of deductions related to research and development costs incurred in the

U.S., which did not have a material impact on the Company’s effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025. To

the extent that our estimates and assumptions materially change, or if actual circumstances differ materially from those in

the assumptions, our financial statements could be materially impacted.

We utilize the asset and liability method for computing our income tax provision. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect

the expected future consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and

liabilities, as well as operating loss, capital loss and tax credit carryforwards, using enacted tax rates. We assess the

likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent we believe that

recovery is not likely, we establish a valuation allowance. Assessing the need for a valuation allowance requires a great

deal of judgment and we consider all available evidence to determine whether it is more likely than not that our deferred

tax assets are recoverable. We evaluate all available evidence including, history of earnings and losses, taxable income

forecasts and whether the evidence is objective. See "Note 11 - Income Taxes" to our consolidated financial statements in

this report.

We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not the tax position will be

maintained by the examination of taxing authorities. The tax benefits recognized from such positions are then measured

based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement. Interest and penalties

related to unrecognized tax benefits are recognized within the provision for income taxes. See “Note 11 - Income Taxes” to

our consolidated financial statements in this report.

For U.S. federal tax purposes, digital asset transactions are accounted for by recognizing a gain or loss when digital assets

are exchanged, in the amount of the difference between the fair market value of the property received and the tax basis of

the exchanged digital assets. Receipts of digital assets in exchange for goods or services are included in taxable income at

the fair market value on the date of receipt.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market price risk of digital assets

A large portion of our revenue generated from API providers is received in Bitcoin. A decline in the market price of digital

assets had (and could in the future, have) an adverse effect on the Company's operations, the value of our digital assets, and

our future operations and cash flows.

The market price of Bitcoin is impacted by a variety of factors and is determined primarily using data from various

exchanges, over-the-counter markets and derivative platforms. The digital asset industry has been negatively impacted by

market price volatility. Pricing may be the result of, and may continue to result in, speculation regarding future

appreciation in the value of Bitcoin. There can be no assurance that we will be able to exchange our digital assets for U.S.

dollars on a timely basis, if at all, or for a fair price. If the value of our digital assets decline, or if we experience difficulties

converting our digital assets to U.S. dollars, we may not have sufficient liquidity to satisfy our liabilities, expenses and

costs as they become due, which may negatively affect our business operations and financial condition. A hypothetical

10% increase or decrease in the digital assets held would have resulted in a change to the fair value of $15.6 million and

$19.6 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through its notes receivable, which bears interest at a fixed rate. Due

to the interest rate on the notes receivable being fixed, changes in market interest rates do not affect the amount of interest

income earned over the life of the receivable. However, fluctuations in market interest rates may affect the fair value of the

receivable. The Company does not currently use derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk related to this

receivable.

Additionally, the Company's exposure to changes in interest rates primarily relates to interest earned on our cash and cash

equivalents and U.S. Treasury bills with maturities of six months or less. We had no outstanding debt or U.S. Treasury bills

subject to interest rate risk as of December 31, 2025, and consequently, we do not currently expect to be exposed to

fluctuations in interest rates for the foreseeable future.

Our investment policy and strategy related to our cash, cash equivalents, and treasury bills is to preserve capital and meet

liquidity requirements without increasing risk. Our cash and cash equivalents consist of money market funds denominated

in U.S. dollars, cash deposits, and treasury bills acquired with less than three months to maturity. Treasury bills outside of

cash and cash equivalents include amounts acquired with three months to twelve months to maturity. Therefore, the fair

value of our cash, cash equivalents, and treasury bills would not be significantly affected by either an increase or a decrease

in interest rates. A hypothetical 100 basis points increase or decrease in average interest rates applied to our daily balances

held as of December 31, 2025 would not have resulted in material impact on our financial results, whereas the same change

applied to our daily balances held as of December 31, 2024, would have resulted in a $0.7 million increase or decrease,

respectively, in interest earned on cash, cash equivalents, and treasury bills.

Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency transaction risk

Revenues, expenses, and financial results of our foreign subsidiaries are recorded in the functional currency of these

subsidiaries. Our foreign currency exposure is primarily related to transactions denominated in Swiss Francs attributable to

cash and cash equivalents, and other intercompany transactions where the transaction currency is different from a

subsidiary’s functional currency. Changes in foreign exchange rates, and in particular a weakening of foreign currencies

relative to the U.S. dollar may negatively affect our results of operations as expressed in U.S. dollars. We have experienced

and will continue to experience fluctuations in our results of operations as a result of gains or losses on the settlement and

the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are not the functional currency.

We recognized net foreign currency gains of $1.9 million and losses of $1.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2025

and 2024, respectively, in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations and

comprehensive (loss) income. If an adverse 10% foreign currency exchange rate change was applied to total monetary

assets, liabilities, and commitments denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies at the balance sheet

date, it would not have resulted in a material impact on our financial results.

We have not but may in the future enter into derivatives or other financial instruments in an attempt to hedge our exposure

to foreign currency exchange risk. It is difficult to predict the impact hedging activities would have on our results of

operations. Additionally, the volatility of exchange rates depends on many factors that we cannot forecast with reliable

accuracy. Our international operations increase our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations and, as a result, such

fluctuations could have a material impact on our future results of operations and cash flows.

Foreign currency translation risk

Fluctuations in functional currencies from our net investment in international subsidiaries expose us to foreign currency

translation risk, where changes in foreign currency exchange rates may adversely affect our results of operations upon

translation into U.S. dollars. We recognized losses on translation adjustments, net of tax, of $1.4 million for the year ended

December 31, 2025, compared to gains on translation adjustments, net of tax, of $0.7 million for the year ended

December 31, 2024, in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income. As of December 31,

2025 and 2024, a 10% increase or decrease on foreign currency exchange rates for translation purposes would not have

resulted in a material impact on our financial results.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Exodus Movement, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Exodus Movement, Inc. and subsidiaries (the

"Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive

(loss) income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows, for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and

the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the 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 two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with

accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion

on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public

Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the

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 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 financial statements, whether

due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test

basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the

accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of

the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

1. Nature of Business

Exodus Movement, Inc. (“Exodus” or “the Company” or “we”) was incorporated in Delaware in July 2016. In December

2025, the Company effected the redomestication of the Company from the State of Delaware to the State of Texas. The

Company operates in the FinTech subsector of the greater blockchain and digital asset industry. The Company has

developed an un-hosted self-custodial digital asset wallet on the Exodus Platform and contracts with third parties to provide

various services to users that utilize the Company’s wallet through the platform.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of

management, all adjustments necessary in order to make the consolidated financial statements not misleading have been

included.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates

and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes. Actual results could differ

materially from those estimates. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements

include depreciation, the recoverability of long-lived assets, useful lives and impairment of long-lived tangible and

intangible assets, valuation of share-based compensation, valuation of equity warrants, reserves for litigation and other

contingencies and accounting for income taxes, among others.

Principles for Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned

subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

F-9

Table of contents

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

Assets and liabilities of international subsidiaries whose functional currency is the local currency are translated at the rate

of exchange in effect on the consolidated balance sheet date; income and expenses are translated at the average exchange

rates prevailing during the period. The effects of these translation adjustments are presented in the consolidated statements

of shareholders’ equity and in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income. Fluctuations in

the Company’s functional currency from our net investment in the Company’s subsidiaries expose us to foreign currency

translation risk, where changes in foreign currency exchange rates may adversely affect our results of operations upon

translation into U.S. Dollars.

Segment Reporting

Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and that is

regularly reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer, also known as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (the “CODM”) in

deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The CODM reviews financial

information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources and

evaluating financial performance. As such, the Company has determined that it operates as one operating segment and one

reportable segment. Segment expenses are provided to the CODM on the same basis as disclosed in the consolidated

statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income which are used to evaluate company performance. The CODM

does not evaluate performance or allocate resources based on segment assets, and therefore such information is not

presented in the notes to the financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

The Company applies the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts

with Customers (“ASC 606”), to determine the measurement of revenue and the timing of when it is recognized. Under

ASC 606, revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to, in exchange for transferring

products or providing services to our customers and is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of

contracts with our customers are satisfied. ASC 606 prescribes a five-step model for recognizing revenue from contracts

with customers: (1) identify contract(s) with the customer; (2) identify the separate performance obligations in the contract;

(3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the separate performance obligations in the contract;

and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied. Our primary customers are Application

Programming Interface Providers ("API Providers") who pay for access to the Exodus Platform.

Exchange Aggregation, Fiat Onboarding, and Staking Revenue Earned Through an API Provider

The Company recognizes various amounts charged to API Providers which are based on user interactions conducted

through APIs as revenue. Currently, the Company has API agreements with providers of digital asset-to-digital asset

exchanges, fiat-to-digital asset conversions, and digital asset staking. Under the terms and conditions of the agreements, the

Company and the providers have integrated the APIs into the Exodus Platform. In consideration for the integration by the

Company of the APIs into the Exodus Platform software, API Providers pay us an API fee for certain user interactions with

the API Provider. These interactions are typically transactions of services between provider and a user, effected through the

API.

Exchange Aggregation—There are two main types of contracts with API Providers, transaction-based contracts and tiered

subscription contracts based on volume. The performance obligations under both types of contracts are such that the

Company allows the API Providers to provide software services which permit a user of Exodus’ un-hosted self-custodial

digital asset software wallet to exchange one digital asset for another digital asset (the “Exchange Services”). The API

Providers supply an application program interface to permit the Exchange Services to be integrated into the un-hosted self-

custodial wallet software (the “Exchange API”). Under the terms and conditions of the agreements, the Company and the

Exchange API Providers have integrated the Exchange APIs into the Exodus wallet.

For transaction-based contracts, revenue is recognized when a transaction occurs between a user and the API Provider. The

Company receives from the API Provider a set percentage, per the contract, of the transaction value. As the majority of our

revenue is transaction based, our revenue can vary significantly based on the volume of user transactions that occur each

day. Because revenue is recognized based on our estimates of the user transaction value (using pricing information from an

independent pricing source), network fees, and spread captured by the API Provider, any or all of which may differ from

the actual amounts, there is variable consideration. The Company calculates an expected variable percentage to apply to the

F-10

Table of contents

transaction when and as revenue generating activity (in the form of user transactions with API Providers) occurs, which is

used to calculate the amount recognized. Because a transaction-based contract between the Company and the API Provider

represents a series of distinct services, which occur daily, the variable consideration allocation exception allows the

Company in each case to allocate the consideration related to each individual user transaction to the period in which it is

earned, since the pricing formula is consistent throughout the period. The variability in transaction price no longer exists

after receipt of consideration. The transaction price is based on a percentage of the fair value of assets exchanged and is

settled in Bitcoin.

For tiered subscription contracts, revenue is recognized monthly when the API Provider is invoiced a U.S. dollar amount

based on the user transaction volume tier reached during the corresponding month. The invoice may be settled in an

amount of either Bitcoin or U.S. Dollar Coin ("USDC"), at the election of the API Provider, equivalent in value to the U.S.

dollar amount at time of payment. Because the contract is denominated in U.S. dollars and the amount invoiced to and due

from the API Provider is a U.S. dollar amount, even if settled in the form other than cash, the consideration is valued as of

the payment date and revenue is recognized based on the U.S. dollar amount. Because the transaction volume is not known

at the time of contract inception and remains uncertain until the contract period is complete, there is variable consideration.

The variable consideration is resolved each month given that the Company invoices its tiered subscription customers in

U.S. dollars based on actual volume tier reached.

The Company has concluded that the contracts do not contain any significant financing components, as either the period

between receipt of the funds and the satisfaction of performance obligations is largely within one year. Substantially all of

the contracts call for payment to be made in digital assets or USDC and have payment terms that are less than 30 days.

Fiat onboarding—Fiat on-ramps, powered by API Providers, such as Ramp network, facilitate an effortless exchange for

users to buy digital assets with fiat currency through bank transfer, credit or debit card and Apple Pay. Users can sell digital

assets for fiat currency and transfer to their bank account utilizing our off-ramp, which is currently powered by API

Providers such as MoonPay and Sardine. Exodus receives transaction-based fees from our third-party providers based on

volume of currency exchanged. As the majority of our revenue is transaction based, our revenue can vary significantly

based on the volume of user transactions that occur each day. Because revenue is recognized based on our estimates of the

user transaction value (using pricing information from an independent pricing source), network fees, and spread captured

by the API Provider, any or all of which may differ from the actual amounts, there is variable consideration. The Company

calculates an expected variable percentage to apply to the transaction when and as revenue generating activity (in the form

of user transactions with API Providers) occurs, which is used to calculate the amount recognized. Because a transaction-

based contract between the Company and the API Provider represents a series of distinct services, which occur daily, the

variable consideration allocation exception allows the Company in each case to allocate the consideration related to each

individual user transaction to the period in which it is earned, since the pricing formula is consistent throughout the period.

The variability in transaction price no longer exists after receipt of consideration. The transaction price is based on a

percentage of the fair value of assets exchanged and is settled primarily in USDC.

Staking revenue earned through an API Provider—By participating in blockchain validation through our third-party API

Provider, Everstake, users are able to earn rewards by staking supported digital assets held in their Exodus wallets.

According to the design of the underlying network staking protocols, the holder determines the amount of digital assets to

stake, retains full control and ownership of the digital assets and can unstake them at any time. Users of the Exodus

Platform are able to access the Staking app within the Exodus Platform and delegate certain digital assets to participate in

staking and receive the resulting rewards. Exodus receives a volume based tiered monthly subscription fee from Everstake.

Because the transaction volume is not known at the time of contract inception, the contract is based by epoch period or

daily period depending on the digital asset and their network validation rules. The Company has determined that the

variable consideration is resolved at the end of the period. Revenue is recognized on a monthly basis based on the

completion of the series of performance obligations during the period.

Consulting and Other Revenue Earned by Exodus or Through an API Provider

Consulting and other—The Company recognizes revenue from the provision of consulting and other services based on

contractual terms. Revenue from consulting and other primarily consists of transactions for non-fungible tokens. The

Company evaluates the transactions based on whether it controls the digital asset provided before it is transferred to the

users or whether it acts as an agent by arranging for other customers to provide the digital asset to the customer. The

Company does not control the digital asset being provided before it is transferred to the buyer, does not have inventory risk

related to the digital asset, and is not responsible for the fulfillment of the digital asset. The Company also does not set the

price for the digital asset. The Company’s API Provider agreements and user terms of service along with the self-custodial

nature of the product clarify that the responsibility for transactions flowing through the APIs are exclusively the

F-11

Table of contents

responsibility of the API Provider and the user. The Company has determined that for its transaction-based contracts it is

an agent solely for the purposes of ASC 606.

Concentration of Revenue

Revenue from API Providers exceeding 10% of total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were as

follows:

(in thousands)	2025		2024
Company A	$14,820		$20,837
Company B	$18,357		$20,206
Company C	$19,434		$19,931
Company D (1)	$—		$16,196
Company E	$18,261		$12,807
Company F (2)	$13,161		$—

(1) Company did not have over 10% of revenue during the fiscal year 2025.

(2) Company did not have over 10% of revenue during the fiscal year 2024.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, money market mutual funds and treasury bills with an original maturity of

three months or less.

U.S. Dollar Coin

USDC is a stablecoin digital asset that is backed by U.S. dollars or other liquid assets and accounted for as a financial

instrument. USDC can be redeemed for one U.S. Dollar.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in checking accounts, various investment grade institutional money

market accounts, bank term deposits and licensed digital asset exchanges. Deposited funds held with financial institutions

may exceed the $250,000 limit insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). Generally, these deposits

may be redeemed upon demand and are maintained with financial institutions with reputable credit. The Company has not

experienced any losses on funds deposited to these accounts and, therefore, does not believe it is exposed to any significant

credit risk with respect to these accounts. The Company also holds cash at digital asset trading venues and performs a

regular assessment of these trading venues as part of its risk management process.

Accounts Receivable

The Company records accounts receivable at the invoiced amount. Accounts receivable are contractual rights to receive

payment in the form of digital assets, stable coin, or cash, and are recognized as an asset on the consolidated balance

sheets. Accounts receivable consists of earned but not yet received revenue accounted for in accordance ASC 606.

Accounts receivable that result in obtaining the right to receive a fixed amount of digital assets in the future are hybrid

instruments, consisting of a receivable host contract that is initially measured at the fair value of the underlying digital

assets and is subsequently carried at amortized cost, and an embedded forward feature based on the changes in the fair

value of the underlying digital asset. The embedded forward is bifurcated from the host contract and is subsequently

measured at fair value.

The Company applies ASC 326-20, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, to record an allowance for doubtful accounts for

receivables based on expected credit losses. In determining expected credit losses, the Company considers historical loss

experience, the aging of its receivable balance, and the term between invoicing and when payment is due. Any accounts

receivable balance shall be charged off in the period in which trade receivables are deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of

F-12

Table of contents

trade receivables previously charged off shall be recorded when received. There have been no receivables charged off for

the periods presented.

Loans Receivable, Net

Loans receivable, net are recognized when the Company has a legally enforceable right to receive cash or other financial

assets under the terms of a written loan or promissory note. Loans receivable are initially recorded at the principal amount

advanced and are subsequently carried at amortized cost, net of any allowance for credit losses. The Company evaluates

loans receivable for expected credit losses in accordance with ASC 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, and records

an allowance for credit losses when necessary based on management’s assessment of expected collectability.

Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. Loan origination fees received, net of certain direct loan

origination costs, are deferred as an adjustment to the carrying value of the related loans and amortized into interest income

over the estimated life of the loans. Contractual exit fees associated with loans receivable are accounted for as adjustments

to yield and amortized into interest income using the effective interest method over the expected term of the loans. For

loans that provide for the capitalization of interest, accrued interest is added to the carrying value of the loan receivable in

accordance with the contractual terms and is not separately presented as accrued interest receivable.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction

between market participants at the measurement date. The following fair value hierarchy is used in selecting inputs, with

the highest priority given to Level 1, as these are the most transparent or reliable:

•Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

•Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar

instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are

observable in active markets.

•Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are not

observable.

Prices may fall within Level 1, 2 or 3 depending upon the methodology and inputs used to estimate fair value for each

specific security. In general, securities are priced using third-party pricing services. Securities not priced by pricing

services are submitted to independent brokers for valuation and, if those are not available, internally developed pricing

models are used to value assets using a methodology and inputs that market participants presumably would use to value the

assets. Prices obtained from third-party pricing services or brokers are not adjusted. Subsequent to the adoption of

Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-08, the fair value of each digital asset is based on quoted (unadjusted) prices

in the principal market for each digital asset. Such prices are based on Level 1 inputs in accordance with ASC 820 - Fair

Value Measurement.

Investments

The Company determines the classification of investments at the time of purchase and evaluates such classification at each

balance sheet date. Investments over which the Company exercises significant influence, but does not control, are

accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Investments over which the Company does not exercise significant

influence are accounted for in accordance with ASC 321, Investments—Equity Securities ("ASC 321").

As of December 31, 2025, the Company held (i) investments in Simple Agreements for Future Equity (“SAFEs”) and (ii)

one investment in an equity security. The SAFEs represent contractual rights to acquire equity interests upon the

occurrence of specified future events and do not provide the Company with voting rights, governance rights, or the ability

to exercise significant influence over the issuers. Accordingly, the SAFEs are accounted for as cost method investments

and are included within other long-term assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s investment in an equity

security is accounted for in accordance with ASC 321 which is measured at fair value. Changes in the equity security fair

value is recognized in other losses, net on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive (loss) income and

the equity security is included within other long-term assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company evaluates its

investments for impairment at each balance sheet date. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount

exceeds estimated fair value and the decline in value is determined to be other than temporary.

F-13

Table of contents

Convertible Note Receivable

In November 2025, the Company entered into a $0.1 million convertible loan agreement with an unrelated third party. The

convertible note is accounted for as a note receivable within other long-term assets, in accordance with ASC 310 -

Receivables, on the Company's balance sheet and is recorded at amortized cost which approximates its fair value. The note

accrues interest at a rate of 0.50% per annum above the 12-month EURIBOR, with interest beginning to accrue on January

1, 2027. The convertible note has a contractual maturity date of October 31, 2027, unless earlier converted in accordance

with the terms of the agreement.

The convertible note includes conversion features that permit the outstanding principal and accrued interest to be converted

into equity, of the unrelated third party, upon the occurrence of specified events, including (i) a qualifying equity financing,

(ii) an exit event, or (iii) at the election of the Company, if no qualifying financing has occurred, upon maturity. The

conversion price component varies by each trigger event: in the event of a new financing round, it is the lowest fully-

diluted price per share multiplied by a 80.0% discount multiple subject to a contractual valuation cap of €15.0 million; for

an exit event, it is the lower of the cap-based fully-diluted ("FD") price or the actual FD price in the exit; and for

conversion on request, it is the cap-based FD price. As of December 31, 2025, the carrying amount of the convertible note

receivable was $0.1 million, and no allowance for credit losses was recorded.

Variable Interest Entity

The Company evaluates its involvement with legal entities to determine whether the entity is a variable interest entity

("VIE") and whether consolidation is required under applicable accounting guidance. An entity is considered a VIE when,

among other factors, (i) the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without

additional subordinated financial support or (ii) the equity holders at risk lack the characteristics of a controlling financial

interest. If the Company has a variable interest in a VIE, it assesses whether it is the primary beneficiary. The primary

beneficiary is the party that has both (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE's economic

performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to

the VIE. In assessing whether it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact a VIE's economic

performance, the Company evaluates the substance of its contractual arrangements, governance rights, and decision-

making authority. Rights that are designed solely to protect the Company's interests, without providing substantive

decision-making ability, are not considered indicators of power. If the Company determines that it is not the primary

beneficiary of a VIE, the entity is not consolidated and the Company accounts for its involvement in accordance with other

applicable accounting guidance.

Fixed Assets, Net

Fixed assets are recorded at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective

assets. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; major renewals and betterments are capitalized and

depreciated.

Digital Assets

Effective January 1, 2024, the company adopted ASU 2023-08, Improvements to Crypto Assets Disclosures. The Company

presents digital assets separately from other intangible assets, recorded as digital assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

The net activity from remeasurement of digital assets at fair value is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations

and comprehensive (loss) income within expense (income). Digital assets that are received as noncash consideration in our

revenue arrangements and sold for cash within seven days are presented as cash flows from operating activities in other

operating activities settled in digital assets and USDC, while other digital asset activity held longer than seven days is

reflected as cash flows from investing activities under disposal of digital assets held in the consolidated statements of cash

flows. The Company uses a mix of non-custodial and custodial services at multiple locations that are geographically

dispersed to store its digital assets. The Company has performed an analysis of the principal market. Refer to "Note 6 -

Intangible Assets", and "Note 13 - Fair Value Measurements", for additional information. The Company has ownership of

and control over its digital assets. The cost basis is calculated on a first-in first-out basis.

Software Development Cost

The Company applies ASC 985-20, Software-Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed, in analyzing the

Company’s software development costs. ASC 985-20 requires the capitalization of certain software development costs

subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility for a software product in development. Software development

F-14

Table of contents

costs associated with establishing technological feasibility are expensed as incurred. We apply ASC 350-40, Intangibles—

Goodwill and Other—Internal Use Software, in the review of certain system projects. These system projects generally

relate to software not hosted on our users’ systems (as defined in ASC 350-40), where the user has no access to source

code, and it is infeasible for the user to operate the software themselves without Exodus servers in place. In these reviews,

all costs incurred during the preliminary project planning stages are expensed as incurred. Amortization of capitalized

software development costs are included in technology, development and user support in the consolidated statements of

operations and comprehensive (loss) income. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded

$0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, in software development impairment which is presented as impairment on other

assets in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.

Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

The Company applies ASC 350-30, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill, in

analyzing the Company’s indefinite-lived assets. Indefinite-lived assets, primarily the Company’s domain name, are not

amortized but are evaluated annually for impairment and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the

carrying amount of the asset may exceed its fair value. If the carrying value of an indefinite-lived asset exceeds its fair

value, an impairment charge is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.

Definite-Lived Intangible Assets

The Company applies ASC 350-30, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill, in

analyzing the Company’s definite-lived assets. The Company's intangible assets consist primarily of technology in

development, an assembled workforce, and trade names. These intangible assets were capitalized at fair market value and

are being amortized over their estimated useful lives.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets, currently consisting of indefinite-lived intangible assets and definite-lived

intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset

may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of

an asset to estimated undiscounted future 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 in the amount by which the carrying

amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Significant management judgment is required to determine the fair

value of our long-lived assets and measure impairment, which includes projected cash flows. Fair value is determined by

using various valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models, sales of comparable properties and third-party

independent appraisals. Changes in estimated fair value could result in an impairment of the asset. There were no material

impairment charges recorded for the periods reported. The Company performs its annual impairment test of long-lived

assets as of December 31 and determined that no impairment existed for the Company’s long-lived assets the years ended

December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Share-based Compensation

Under the Company’s share-based compensation plans, certain team members, members of the Company’s Board, and its

consultants have received grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) for Exodus Movement Class A common stock.

The Company accounts for RSUs as equity classified awards. For RSUs, the expense is measured based on the grant-date

fair value and is recognized over the requisite service period for each vesting tranche of awards expected to vest, with

forfeitures estimated based on historical experience and future expectations. Share-based compensation is included in

expenses (income) on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.

Warrant Valuations

During fiscal year 2025, in connection with certain agreements, the company issued warrants to purchase shares of its

common stock. The company measures the fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model as of

the issuance date. Exercisable warrants are equity based and recorded as a reduction in additional paid-in capital.

The material factors incorporated in the Black-Scholes model in estimating the fair value of the options and warrants

granted for the periods presented were as follows:

F-15

Table of contents

•Expected dividend yield - The expected dividend is assumed to be zero as we have never paid dividends and have

no current plans to pay any dividends on our common stock.

•Expected stock-price volatility - The expected volatility is derived from the historical volatility of the Company's

stock as there are no other publicly traded companies within our industry that we consider to be comparable over a

period approximately equal to the expected term.

•Risk-free interest rate - The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant

for zero coupon U.S. Treasury notes with maturities approximately equal to the expected term.

•Expected term - The expected term represents the period that the awards are expected to be outstanding. Our

historical warrant exercise experience does not provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate an expected

term because of a lack of sufficient data. Therefore, we estimate the expected term by using the simplified method

provided by the SEC. The simplified method calculates the expected term as the average of the time-to-vesting

and the contractual life of the options.

•Fair value per share - The fair value per share is the fair price or theoretical value for a call or a put option based

on six variables such as volatility, type of option, underlying stock price, time, strike price and risk-free rate.

(Loss) Earnings Per Share

The Company computes net (loss) income per share using the two-class method required for participating securities. The

two-class method requires income available to common shareholders for the period to be allocated between common stock

and participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had been

distributed. The Company’s Class A and Class B common stock were deemed participating securities. Basic net (loss)

income per share is computed using the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of common stock during the

period. Diluted net (loss) income per share is computed using the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of

common stock and, when dilutive, potential shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Potential shares of

common stock consist of incremental shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, warrants, and vesting of RSUs.

Income Taxes

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are

determined based on differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities

and are measured using the enacted tax rates that are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those

temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates is recognized in the

statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company

records valuation allowances to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not be realized.

In accordance with ASC 740, the Company recognizes, in its consolidated financial statements, the impact of the

Company's tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The Company will determine

whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related

appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. In evaluating whether a tax position has met

the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company presumes that the position will be examined by the

appropriate taxing authority with full knowledge of all relevant information. Upon determination that a tax position meets

the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, it is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the

financial statements. The Company recognizes interest and penalties for uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

On July 4, 2025, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (P.L. 119‑21) was enacted into law. The legislation reinstates and extends

several provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including permanent 100% bonus depreciation, enhanced

Section 179 expensing, full research and development expense deduction for domestic expenditures and modification to the

international tax framework. We are currently assessing its impact on our consolidated financial statements. The primary

impact of the legislation is the acceleration of deductions related to research and development costs incurred in the U.S.,

which did not have a material impact on the Company’s effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Asset Acquisitions

When an acquisition does not meet the definition of a business combination because either: (i) substantially all of the fair

value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset, or group of similar identified assets, or (ii)

the acquired entity does not have an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to

create outputs, we account for the acquisition as an asset acquisition. In an asset acquisition, goodwill is not recognized, but

rather, any excess purchase consideration over the fair value of the net assets acquired is allocated on a relative fair value

F-16

Table of contents

basis to the identifiable net assets as of the acquisition date and any direct acquisition-related transaction costs are

capitalized as part of the purchase consideration. Purchase consideration is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets

acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values as of the acquisition date, which are measured in

accordance with fair value measurement accounting principles. The determination of fair value requires management to

make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly

subjective in nature. For information on the acquisition that we completed during the year ended December 31, 2025 that

we accounted for as asset acquisitions, see "Note 6 - Intangible Assets.”

On November 10, 2025, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Gratitud Interna Ltd., a Latin American

crypto payments platform. The aggregate purchase price was $2.7 million excluding transaction costs of $0.1 million, of

which $1.5 million was paid in cash and $1.2 million was delivered in newly issued Class A shares. The Company issued

55,825 shares of Class A common stock, based on the 60-day volume-weighted average price of the Company’s Class A

common stock as of that date. This asset purchase expanded our payments capabilities by adding technology in

development, an assembled workforce, and a trade name supporting crypto-based merchant transactions in the Latin

America market.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Pending Adoption

Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software

In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2025-06, “Intangibles — Goodwill

and Other — Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use

Software”. The amendments in ASU 2025-26 (i) remove all references to prescriptive software development “project

stages,” (ii) refocus the capitalization threshold such that an entity begins capitalizing when (a) management authorizes and

commits to funding the project and (b) it is probable that the project will be completed and used for its intended function

(subject to evaluation of significant development uncertainty). The amendments in ASU 2025-26 do not (i) amend the

accounting for external-use software under Subtopic 985-20, (ii) change the types of internal-use software costs eligible for

capitalization (e.g., data conversion, training, maintenance costs generally remain expensed), or (iii) modify when

capitalization ceases (i.e., when the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use). The amendments in

ASU 2025-26 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and for interim periods within those

annual periods. Early adoption is permitted, but only as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. Entities may elect a

prospective, retrospective, or modified retrospective transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact

of adopting the standard on the consolidated financial statements.

Expense Disaggregation Disclosures

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Expense Disaggregation Disclosures". ASU 2024-03 aims to enhance

disclosures regarding a public business entity’s expenses, specifically addressing investor requests for more detailed

information on the types of expenses included in commonly presented expense captions such as cost of sales, selling,

general and administrative expenses, and research and development. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 require additional

transparency on the breakdown of expenses, including purchases of inventory, team member compensation, depreciation,

amortization, and depletion. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after

December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The

amendments may be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective

date, or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently

evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 on its financial reporting and will adopt the standard in accordance with the

required effective date. Subsequent to December 31, 2024, in January 2025 the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 which clarifies

the disclosure requirements for public business entities adopting ASU 2024-03. ASU 2025-01 specifies that all public

business entities should initially adopt the disclosure requirements presented in ASU 2024-03 in the first annual reporting

period beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after

December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the standard on the consolidated financial

statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax

Disclosures”, which modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose (1) specific categories in

the rate reconciliation, (2) the income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit (separated

F-17

Table of contents

between domestic and foreign) and (3) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations (separated by federal,

state and foreign). ASU 2023-09 also requires entities to disclose their income tax payments to international, federal, state

and local jurisdictions, among other changes. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15,

2024. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has adopted ASU 2023-09, which was applied on a prospective basis. This

guidance only impacts footnote disclosures and will not impact our consolidated financial statements.

Improvements to Crypto Assets Disclosures

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-08, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60)"

which provides an update to existing crypto asset guidance and requires an entity to measure certain crypto assets at fair

value. In addition, this guidance requires additional disclosures related to crypto assets once it is adopted. As of January 1,

2024, the Company has adopted ASU 2023-08. As a result of adopting the amendments, the Company’s cumulative-effect

adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual reporting period, or as of January

1, 2024, amounted to $38.3 million, which consisted of $48.7 million of fair value adjustments offset by a $10.4 million tax

impact related to the fair value adjustments. The Company includes realized and unrealized gains and losses in net (loss)

income on the consolidated financial statements which is presented separately from changes in the carrying amount of

other intangible assets.

Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable

Segment Disclosures”, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through

enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after

December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is

permitted. The guidance is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Upon

transition, the segment expense categories and amounts disclosed in the prior periods should be based on the significant

segment expense categories identified and disclosed in the period of adoption. ASU 2023-07 further permits disclosure of

more than one measure of segment profit or loss and extends the full disclosure requirements of ASC 280 to companies

with single reportable segments. This guidance only impacts footnote disclosures and will not impact our consolidated

financial results of operations. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 on December 31, 2024 on a retrospective basis.

5. Loans Receivable, Net

Term Facility and Delayed-Draw Term Facility

On November 18, 2025, the Company entered into a loan agreement with W3C Corp., pursuant to which the Company

agreed to provide up to $70.0 million of secured financing, consisting of (i) a term loan facility with aggregate

commitments of up to $60.0 million (the “Term Facility”) and (ii) a delayed-draw term loan facility with aggregate

commitments of up to $10.0 million (the “Delayed-Draw Term Facility” and collectively with the Term Facility, the

“Facilities”). The Facilities are secured by substantially all of the assets of W3C Corp. and certain of its subsidiaries,

subject to customary exceptions. As of December 31, 2025, no amounts were outstanding under the Delayed-Draw Term

Facility.

F-19

Table of contents

Borrowings under the Term Facility bear interest at a rate of 12.0% per annum, compounded monthly, while borrowings

under the Delayed-Draw Term Facility bear interest at a rate of 6.0% per annum, compounded quarterly. In each case,

accrued interest is capitalized and added to the outstanding principal balance. The loan agreement also provides for a one-

time upfront fee equal to 2.0% of the Term Facility and an exit fee of up to $7.2 million, which is reduced by the aggregate

amount of upfront fees paid and capitalized interest at the time of repayment.

Accordingly, interest income associated with the Facilities reflects both contractual interest accrued on outstanding

borrowings and the amortization of upfront and exit fees, which are accounted for as adjustments to loan yield. For the year

ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized interest income related to the Facilities of $2.1 million. Based on the

Company’s current expectation that amounts outstanding under the Term Facility will be repaid in connection with the

consummation of the acquisition, the effective interest rate on the Term Facility is higher than the stated contractual rate

due to the amortization of upfront and exit fees, while the effective interest rate on the Delayed-Draw Term Facility

approximates its stated contractual rate.

The Facilities mature on the earlier of (i) consummation of the acquisition and (ii) the date falling twelve months after the

initial borrowing under the term loan facility, subject to extensions in certain circumstances as provided in the loan

agreement.

Covenants

The Facilities contain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on additional indebtedness,

liens, asset sales, acquisitions and distributions, as well as a minimum liquidity covenant. The Facilities also include

customary events of default, including non-payment, breach of covenants and insolvency events, which could result in the

acceleration of amounts outstanding. As of December 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all applicable

covenants.

Credit Risk and Allowance for Credit Losses

As of December 31, 2025, the Company concluded that no allowance for credit losses was required based on the secured

nature of the receivables, the short-term expected duration of the arrangements, and the Company’s assessment of the

creditworthiness of the counterparty.

Seller Promissory Note

On November 18, 2025, the Company entered into a secured promissory note with the seller of W3C Corp., a related party

(the “Seller Note”), pursuant to which the Company extended a loan in the principal amount of $10.0 million. The Seller

Note bears interest at a rate of 6.0% per annum, compounded quarterly, with accrued interest capitalized and added to the

outstanding principal balance. The Seller Note is secured by a pledge of the seller’s equity interests in W3C Corp.

All outstanding principal and accrued interest under the Seller Note are due and payable upon the earlier of the

consummation of the acquisition or the occurrence of specified termination events. Upon consummation of the acquisition,

the outstanding principal and accrued interest are expected to be settled through a non-cash offset against the purchase

consideration otherwise payable to the seller.

Interest income associated with the Seller Note is recognized in interest income. For the year ended December 31, 2025,

the Company recognized $0.1 million of interest income related to the Seller Note. Based on the short-term expected

duration of the arrangement, the secured nature of the Seller Note, and the anticipated settlement through offset at closing,

the Company determined that no allowance for credit losses was required as of December 31, 2025.

6. Intangible Assets

Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

Indefinite-lived assets were $2.1 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Indefinite-lived assets primarily

consist of purchased domain names. In the second quarter of 2024, the Company purchased a domain name for $0.2

million. The Company considers these assets to be indefinite-lived, resulting in no recognition of amortization.

Share-Based Compensation

Options and Equity Grants Issued

The 2019 Equity Incentive Plan adopted in September 2019 (the “2019 Plan”) permitted the Company to grant non-

statutory stock options, incentive stock options, and other equity awards to Exodus team members, directors, and

consultants. The exercise price for options issued under the 2019 Plan is determined by the Board, but will be (i) in the case

of an incentive stock option granted to an employee or consultant who owns stock representing more than 10% of the

voting power of all classes of stock of Exodus, no less than 110% of the fair market value per share on the date of grant; or

(ii) granted to any other team member or consultant, no less than 100% of the fair market value per share on the date of

grant. The contractual life for all options issued under the 2019 Plan is 10 years. The 2019 Plan authorized grants to issue

up to 3,000,000 options (prior to the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan) that are convertible into shares of authorized but unissued

Class B common stock. As of December 31, 2025, there were 545,142 shares of Class B common stock options

outstanding.

In August 2021, the Company adopted the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the "Plan"). The Plan

permits the Company to grant non-statutory stock options, incentive stock options and other equity awards, such as

restricted stock units, to Exodus team members, directors, and consultants. The exercise price for options issued under the

2021 Plan is determined by the board of directors, but will be (i) in the case of an incentive stock option granted to an team

member who owns stock representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of Exodus, no less than

110% of the fair market value per share on the date of grant; or (ii) granted to any other team member or consultant, no less

than 100% of the fair market value per share on the date of grant. The contractual life for all options issued under the 2021

Plan is 10 years. The Plan initially authorized grants to issue up to 2,780,000 awards that are convertible into shares of

authorized but unissued Class A common stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the Company may increase our share

pool by 5% of our outstanding shares of capital stock each year. As of December 31, 2024, a total of 6,662,936 shares of

Class A common stock were reserved for issuance under the Plan. In August 2025, the Company added 1,453,470

additional shares to the share pool in accordance with the Evergreen provision, bringing the total number of shares reserved

for issuance under the Plan to 8,116,406 as of December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, there were 2,543,468

restricted stock units that are authorized and outstanding with a fair value of $37.6 million.

Upon the approval of the Amended Plan, the Company can no longer grant non-statutory stock options, incentive stock

options, or other equity awards to Exodus team members, directors, or consultants under the 2019 Plan.

The terms of our share-based compensation are governed by the plan pursuant to which such awards were issued.

Effective Tax Rate

Income tax benefit was $9.3 million in 2025 compared to an expense of $17.9 million for the same period in 2024.  The

effective tax rate during 2025 was 45.0% compared to 13.6% in 2024. In 2025 and 2024, state and local income taxes in

California and Nebraska comprise the majority of the domestic state and local income taxes, net of federal tax. For the year

ended December 31, 2025, the change from the statutory tax rate to the effective rate was primarily due to a benefit related

to stock option exercises net of non-deductible executive compensation, U.S. Foreign Derived Intangible Income and

research and development tax credits partially offset by nondeductible expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2024,

the change from the statutory tax rate to the effective rate was primarily due to a benefit related to stock option exercises,

net of non-deductible executive compensation, and U.S. Foreign Derived Intangible Income partially offset by change in

valuation allowance.

Total deferred tax liabilities	(21,357)		(24,842)
Net deferred tax liabilities	$(11,991)		$(21,779)

Valuation Allowance

At each reporting date, management considers new evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect its view of the

future realization of deferred tax assets. On the basis of this evaluation, only the portion of the deferred tax asset that is

more likely than not to be realized was recognized. However, if the Company is not able to generate sufficient taxable

income through the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or from its operations in the future, then a valuation allowance to

reduce the Company’s deferred tax assets may be required, which would increase the Company’s expenses in the period

the allowance is recognized. As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s US net deferred tax liability was primarily

comprised of basis differences in digital assets partially offset by deferred tax assets related to intangible assets, net

operating loss carryforwards, tax credit carryforwards and share-based compensation. Reversals of deferred tax liabilities

are available to utilize US deferred tax assets. Based upon the historical cumulative income of its foreign subsidiaries,

management does not expect to realize the full benefit of this deferred tax asset before it will expire. A valuation allowance

of $0.3 million and $0.4 million was reflected against the Company’s gross deferred tax asset balance related to foreign net

operating losses as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

On July 4, 2025, One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBB") was signed into law in the United States. OBBB includes

significant changes to U.S. federal tax law, such as an elective deduction for domestic research and experimental

expenditures, and changes to the tax rate on income from non-U.S. sources and subsidiaries. OBBB did not have a material

impact on our current year effective tax rate. The OBBB allowed for the acceleration of deductions in 2025 with a

corresponding reduction of deferred tax assets. 

As of December 31, 2025, Exodus had federal and state net operating losses of $5.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

The federal net operating loss carries forward indefinitely. Generally, California, Nebraska and other U.S. states have a

twenty-year carryforward for net operating losses. Exodus had federal R&D tax credit carryforward of $0.5 million. If not

utilized, the federal R&D credits will expire in in 2045. For the year ended December 31, 2025, Exodus had foreign net

operating loss carryforwards of $2.5 million which, if unused, will expire in various years beginning 2027.

Open Periods

Exodus is subject to taxation in the United States, Canada, Netherlands, Italy and Switzerland. As of December 31, 2025,

tax years 2022 to 2025 are subject to examination by tax authorities. With limited exceptions as of December 31, 2025,

Exodus is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, local or foreign examinations by tax authorities for years before 2022.

The liability for uncertain tax position is a component of other long-term liabilities.  As of December 31, 2025, there were

no unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the annual effective tax rate.  As of December 31, 2024, there

were $0.3 million of unrecognized tax benefits that would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. The Company

recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax (benefit) expense. During the year

ended December 31, 2025, the Company did not recognize interest and penalties. During the year ended December 31,

2024, the Company recognized less than $0.1 million in interest and penalties.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

The Company is subject to a number of claims and proceedings that generally arise in the ordinary course of business, the

outcome of which cannot be predicted with certainty. The Company does not believe that the liabilities from such ordinary

course claims and proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results

of operations or cash flows. If the Company believes the losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated, reserves will

be established. For matters where a reserve has not been established, the ultimate outcome or resolution cannot be predicted

at this time or the amount of ultimate loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated. Litigation is subject to many

uncertainties and there can be no assurance as to the outcome of the individual litigated matters. It is possible that certain of

the actions, claims, inquiries or proceedings could be decided unfavorably to the Company or any of its subsidiaries

involved. Accordingly, it is possible that an adverse outcome from such a proceeding could exceed the amount accrued in

an amount that could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in

any particular reporting period.

Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") Matter

As previously disclosed, in December 2018, we received an administrative subpoena issued by OFAC seeking information

regarding potential transactions with individuals in Iran. In response, we conducted a comprehensive review that covered

all countries and territories subject to U.S. trade embargoes administered by OFAC. We submitted a voluntary self-

disclosure and subpoena response regarding potential violations to OFAC, and took remedial action designed to prevent

similar activity from occurring in the future. Additionally, in March 2021, we received a second administrative subpoena

issued by OFAC seeking information regarding potential transactions with certain North Korean cyber actors, to which we

responded and was resolved without any separate findings of misconduct or enforcement action.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, we reached a settlement agreement with OFAC to fully resolve the matter

regarding individuals in Iran. Under the terms of the agreement, we agreed to pay a civil monetary penalty of $2,473,360,

and to invest an additional $630,000 in sanctions compliance controls. In November 2025, the civil monetary penalty was

paid in full. The settlement does not constitute an admission of liability or admission of willful or intentional wrongdoing

by the Company and reflects the Company’s full cooperation and remedial actions taken throughout the investigation.

(1)These investments are recorded at cost.

The Company invests in held to maturity treasury bills. As of December 31, 2025, the Company held no treasury bills. As

of December 31, 2024, the Company held treasury bills with a maturity of greater than three months in other current assets

in the amount of $30.5 million, and the Company held treasury bills with a maturity of less than three months in cash and

cash equivalents in the amount of $0.7 million. The discount rates ranged from 1.1% to 2.4% as of December 31, 2024.

Assets and Liabilities Not Measured and Recorded at Fair Value

The Company’s financial instruments, including USDC, are carried at cost, which approximates their fair value. If these

financial instruments were recorded at fair value, they would be based on Level 1 inputs. The Company also holds notes

receivable that are recorded at amortized costs which approximates their fair value. The fair value of these instruments is

not readily determinable due to their non-marketable nature and is therefore not included in the fair value hierarchy.

14. (Loss) Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net (loss) income per share of common stock for the

years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

(in thousands, except per share amounts)	2025		2024
Basic net (loss) income per share:
Numerator
Net (loss) income, basic and diluted	$(11,353)		$112,958
Denominator
Weighted-average number of shares used in per share computation - Class A	9,515		5,371
Weighted-average number of shares used in per share computation - Class B	19,492		20,925
Basic net (loss) income per share - Class A	$(0.39)		$4.30
Basic net (loss) income per share - Class B	$(0.39)		$4.30
Diluted net (loss) income per share:
Denominator
Weighted-average number of shares used in diluted computation - Class A	9,515		9,051
Weighted-average number of shares used in diluted computation - Class B	19,492		23,012
Diluted net (loss) income per share - Class A	$(0.39)		$3.52
Diluted net (loss) income per share - Class B	$(0.39)		$3.52

Diluted (loss) earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents and is computed using the

weighted-average number of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the reporting period.

Diluted (loss) earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2025 excluded common stock equivalents because the

effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive or would decrease the reported loss per share.

The following table sets forth securities outstanding that could potentially dilute the calculation of diluted earnings per

share:

(In thousands)	December 31, 2025
RSUs outstanding	2,543
Stock options outstanding	545
Warrants	100
Number of anti-dilutive shares	3,188

15. Variable Interest Entity

In November 2025, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire W3C. W3C is a Delaware corporation that

serves as a holding company for Monavate Holdings Limited ("Monavate") and Baanx.com Ltd. ("Baanx"), and their

respective subsidiaries (collectively, the "W3C Group"). As of December 31, 2025, W3C owns and operates Monavate and

Baanx businesses and the acquisition of the W3C Group has not closed. In connection with the proposed acquisition, the

Company entered three financing arrangements with W3C consisting of: (i) a term loan facility of $60.0 million; (ii) a

delayed draw term loan facility of $10.0 million and (iii) a seller promissory note of $10.0 million. For further details on

these arrangements, refer to "Note 5 – Loans Receivable, Net".

We concluded that W3C is a variable interest entity. The Company evaluated whether it is the primary beneficiary of W3C,

as aligned with the procedures described in "Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies", and concluded that it

is not the primary beneficiary as it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact W3C’s

economic performance. Therefore, W3C is not consolidated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Table of contents

The Company's maximum exposure to loss was $81.0 million and represents the carrying values of loan receivables and

related capitalized and accrued interest recorded in the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025.

The Company does not have any contractual requirement to provide additional financial support to W3C beyond amounts

currently funded and has not provided any financial support to W3C during the year ended December 31, 2025, other than

amounts advanced under the loan agreements.

16. Segment Reporting

The Company has one reportable segment: revenues. Factors that management used to identify the Company’s reportable

segment include the Company’s integrated business model, shared customer base, centralized corporate functions, and

uniform service offerings in determining that the business operates as a single segment. A description of the types of

products and services from which the reportable segment derives its revenues as well as the accounting policies applicable

to the reportable segment can be found in "Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies". Entity-wide information

can be found in "Note 3 – Revenue Recognition". The chief operating decision maker, who is the chief executive officer,

assesses the performance of the Company using consolidated net (loss) income for the reportable segment and decides how

to allocate resources based on revenues, technology, development and user support, general and administrative expenses,

and net (loss) income which are reported under identical captions in the consolidated statements of operations and

comprehensive (loss) income. No additional measures of segment assets, profit, or loss are used in internal management

reporting. The Company does not have intra-entity sales or material intra-entity transfers for consideration in the segment

analysis. Information about reported segment revenue and profit as well as significant segment expenses can be found in

the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

None.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of, and under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer ("Principal Executive

Officer") and Chief Financial Officer ("Principal Financial Officer"), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's

disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of December

31, 2025. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of

December 31, 2025, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management 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

by, or under the supervision of, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by the

Company's board of directors, management, and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability

of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting

principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31,

2025, based on the criteria established in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of

Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO Framework"). Based on this assessment, management

concluded that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025.

Previously Reported Material Weaknesses

We identified errors in our previously reported financial information as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021. As a

result of the errors that were identified, we identified a material weakness in the Company’s control environment whereby

the Company did not design and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting with respect to the expertise

and quantity of its resources. Specifically, we did not effectively execute a strategy to hire, train, and retain a sufficient

quantity of personnel with an appropriate level of training, expertise, and experience in certain areas important to financial

reporting. In addition, we also identified a material weakness whereby we did not design and implement effective control

activities based on the criteria in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of

Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO Framework"). Specifically, the control activities did not

adequately (i) address relevant risks, (ii) provide evidence of performance, (iii) provide appropriate segregation of duties,

or (iv) operate at a level of precision to identify all potentially material errors.

Remediation Update of Previously Reported Material Weakness

Management has fully executed its remediation plan as of the period ended December 31, 2025, to address the previously

reported material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. Throughout the current fiscal year 2025, the

Company has added experienced accounting leadership, enhanced control design and documentation, and implemented

review and approval processes to further strengthen oversight of our financial reporting processes. Key remediation actions

completed as of December 31, 2025 include:

•Hiring and training additional accounting personnel with appropriate level of training and technical expertise and

experience to improve segregation of duties and oversight within the financial reporting process;

•Replacing certain key accounting leadership positions to enhance supervision and control accountability;

•Engaging an external consulting firm with digital asset industry expertise to assist with process improvement,

control design, and documentation;

•Implementing enhanced financial close procedures, workflow controls, and review-level documentation to

increase control precision and evidence of performance;

61

Table of contents

•Strengthening entity-level and process-level controls, including segregation of duties and IT-related controls, in

alignment with the COSO Framework.

The remediated controls were implemented during fiscal year 2025 and operated for a sufficient period of time to allow

management to evaluate their design and operating effectiveness.The Company performed testing to confirm the operating

effectiveness of these enhanced controls throughout 2025.

Management further evaluated whether any remaining deficiencies, individually or in the aggregate, represent a material

weakness and concluded that no material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting exist as of December 31,

2025.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except for the remediation activities described above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial

reporting that occurred during the three months ended December 31, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably

likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
