Current report

The following are the more significant developments in our business during the six months ended June 30, 2025:

Current report

On May 1, 2025 under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, we acquired two validator nodes from Solsync Solutions Partnership, a SOL validator business owned by our current Chief Operating and Investment Officer for $3.5 million.

Current report

We received net proceeds of $78.5 million through various financing transactions and used the proceeds to purchase digital assets and for working capital purposes.

Current report

Our consolidated revenue increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to digital asset revenue generated from our treasury strategy, which began in the second quarter 2025, and was driven by rewards from staking our digital asset holdings.

Current report

Consolidated Gain from changes in fair value of digital assets

Current report

Consolidated gain from changes in fair value of digital assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was $22.1 million primarily due to gains related to converting a portion of our SOL holdings into locked SOL and liquid staking tokens and due to the appreciation of SOL against the U.S. Dollar, which were partially offset by impairment charges of $0.9 million related to certain liquid staking tokens.

Current report

Our treasury segment accounted for the increase in consolidated operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to general and administrative expenses related to employee costs and professional fees.

Current report

Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily due to higher operating income driven by our treasury strategy and increased SaaS revenue from our real estate platform segment.

Current report

Consolidated net income (loss) increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to the previously mentioned gains of $21.2 million from changes in fair value of digital assets, which was partially offset by increases in operating expenses related to general and administrative expenses and income tax expense.

Current report

Our segment operating results are presented based on how management evaluates operating performance and internally reports financial information. See Note 4—Segments for further discussion on our segments.

Current report

We adopted a treasury policy under which the principal holding in our treasury reserve is allocated to SOL. Through this strategy, we provide investors with direct economic exposure to SOL, while also actively participating in the growth of the Solana ecosystem. In addition to holding and staking SOL, we operate our own validator infrastructure, generating staking rewards and fees from delegated stake.

Current report

Our operating results and financial condition is and will continue to be impacted by price volatility in digital asset markets, which may cause significant fluctuations from period to period and may not be necessarily indicative of future performance. In addition, our revenue may vary due to changes in staking reward yields and Solana protocol defined reward structures, including the annual inflationary rate.

Current report

During the second quarter 2025, we began generating treasury revenue primarily from rewards earned on staking our digital asset holdings at third party platforms and to a lesser extent from operating our owned validators, which were acquired in May 2025.

Current report

General and administrative expenses associated with our new treasury policy, during the second quarter 2025, primarily consisted of $2.3 million of employee-related costs and $1.4 million of professional fees.

Current report

(Gain) loss from changes in fair value of digital assets generated during the second quarter 2025 reflects $11.2 million of realized gains resulting from converting a portion of our SOL holdings into locked SOL and liquid staking tokens and $10.9 million of gains due to the appreciation of SOL relative to the U.S. Dollar, which was partially offset by impairment charges of $0.9 million related to certain liquid staking tokens.

Current report

Real estate revenue increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024 primarily due to increased SaaS subscription revenue. SaaS subscription revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was approximately $502.1 thousand, compared to $127.2 thousand for the same period in the prior year, an increase of 295%. As of June 30, 2025, total SaaS subscriptions for the quarter increased from 46 to 442 subscriptions. Annualized recurring revenue ("ARR") for the second quarter 2025 reached approximately $2.2 million, compared to approximately $0.3 million as of June 30, 2024, an increase of 631%. ARR increased sequentially by approximately 61%, which was approximately $1.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. ARR represents an annualization of our SaaS subscription recurring revenue, which assumes a full year of revenue.

Current report

Sales and marketing increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024 primarily due to an increase in marketing and sales commissions related to the growth of SaaS subscription revenue.

Current report

General and administrative decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024 due to a reduction in payroll related costs.

Current report

As of June 30, 2025, our principal sources of liquidity were sales of our common stock under our ELOC, cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and collections of our accounts receivable. Our ELOC provides the ability for us to sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate of $1.0 billion of our common stock. Our cash and cash equivalents consist of money market and demand deposit accounts at various financial institutions and digital asset platforms. We believe that these existing sources of liquidity are and will be sufficient in both the short and long term to meet our working capital requirements and future obligations.

Current report

We hold digital assets as part of our treasury strategy that may be converted to cash and used as a source of liquidity if necessary, however, we do not presently intend to liquidate our digital assets holdings to fund our capital requirements and obligations.

Current report

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $2.1 million primarily due to the timing of collections related to our accounts receivable and payments related to interest and income taxes.

Current report

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $61.3 million due to the purchase of digital assets by our treasury segment.

Current report

Net cash provided by financing activities was $63.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 as a result of proceeds received from equity raises and the issuance of convertible notes.

Previous report

The following discussion and analysis is intended as a review of significant factors affecting our financial condition and results of operations for the periods indicated. The discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition to historical information, the following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ significantly from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors discussed herein and any other periodic reports filed and to be filed with the SEC.

Previous report

We currently have two different customer segments: lenders and borrowers. Borrowers include (but are not limited to) owners, operators, and developers of commercial real estate including multifamily properties and most recently, a growing segment of small business owners (which we believe represents a significant growth opportunity). Lenders include banks, credit unions, REITs, Fannie Mae® and Freddie Mac® multifamily lenders, FHA® multifamily lenders, debt funds, CMBS lenders and SBA lenders.

Previous report

Our business model includes earning a transaction fee, or platform fee, each time a loan closes with a lender through our platform. We are either paid a share of the revenue from the transaction by the lender and/or receive some fixed sum in an amount we negotiate from the borrower. We are generally paid by the lender or the borrower and are paid by both sometimes. Our average fee earned per transaction is approximately 1% of the loan amount generally earned at the time of closing. We do not make loans or share risk with the lenders, with whom we conduct business with.

Previous report

Subsequent to March 31, 2025, the Company will generate incremental revenue through two primary channels tied to its treasury strategy: (1) staking SOL rewards and (2) validator-based monetization. The Company stakes SOL through its validator infrastructure, earning native yield.

Previous report

In fiscal 2025, we will continue to focus on transitioning from transactional platform fee debt revenue to the more predictable and profitable recurring SaaS subscription revenue. As of March 31, 2025, our annual recurring revenue (“ARR”) reached approximately $1.4 million, compared to approximately $287,000 as of March 31, 2024, an increase of 379%. ARR increased sequentially by approximately 69%, which was approximately $812,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024. ARR represents an annualization of our recurring revenue, which assumes a full year of revenue. As of March 31, 2025 and 2024, there was approximately $966,000 and $341,000 in deferred revenue, respectively, the majority of which is pertaining to SaaS subscription fees received in advance. The revenue will be recognized over the remaining term of the SaaS agreements over the next three years.

Previous report

In 2025, we will continue to better connect the commercial real estate industry by building tools that reduce frictions in transactions and that provide broader access to better data than entrenched incumbents. We will also further our treasury strategy focused on the accumulation of SOL and generating additional incremental revenue through staking SOL rewards and validator-based monetization. Our priorities are as follows:

Previous report

Economic and Market Risks and Uncertainties in Our Business Model

Previous report

We may be negatively impacted by periods of economic downturns, recessions, and disruptions in the capital markets, credit and liquidity issues in the capital markets, including international, national, regional and local markets, tax and regulatory changes and corresponding declines in the demand for commercial real estate investment and related services. Historically, commercial real estate markets and, in particular, the U.S. commercial real estate market, have tended to be cyclical and related to the flow of capital to the sector, the condition of the economy as a whole and the perceptions and confidence of market participants to the economic outlook. Cycles in the real estate markets may lead to similar cycles in our earnings and significant volatility in our stock price. Further real estate markets may “lag” behind the broader economy such that even when underlying economic fundamentals improve in a given market, additional time may be required for these improvements to translate into strength in the real estate markets. The “lag” may be exacerbated when banks delay their resolution of commercial real estate assets whose values are less than their associated loans.

Previous report

Negative economic conditions, changes in interest rates, credit and the availability of capital, both debt and/or equity, disruptions in capital markets, the uncertainty of the tax and regulatory environment or declines in the demand for commercial real estate investment and related services in international and domestic markets or in significant markets in which we do business, have had and could have in the future a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and/or financial condition. In particular, the commercial real estate market is directly impacted by (i) the lack of debt and/or equity financing for commercial real estate transactions, (ii) increased interest rates and changes in monetary policies by the U.S. Federal Reserve, (iii) changes in the perception that commercial real estate is an accepted asset class for portfolio diversification, (iv) changes in tax policy affecting the attractiveness of real estate as an investment choice, (v) changes in regulatory policy impacting real estate development opportunities and capital markets, (vi) slowdowns in economic activity that could cause residential and commercial tenant demand to decline, and (vii) declines in the regional or local demand for commercial real estate, or significant disruptions in other segments of the real estate markets could adversely affect our results of operations. Any of the foregoing would adversely affect the operation and income of commercial real estate properties.

Previous report

These and other types of events could lead to a decline in transaction activity as well as a decrease in property values which, in turn, would likely lead to a reduction in financing fees relating to such transactions. These effects would likely cause us to realize lower revenues. Such declines in transaction activity and value would likely also significantly reduce our financing activities and revenues.

Previous report

Fiscal uncertainty, significant changes and volatility in the financial markets and business environment, and similar significant changes in the global, political, security and competitive landscape, make it increasingly difficult for us to predict our revenue and earnings into the future. As a result, any revenue or earnings projections or economic outlook which we may give may be materially affected by such events. Fiscal 2024 was one of the most challenging years for the commercial real estate industry.*** ***

Previous report

As part of our capital allocation strategy for assets that are not required to provide immediate working capital for our ongoing operations, we have invested and will continue to accumulate SOL. As of the date of this filing, we had purchased approximately $103 million SOL, including staking rewards. The price of SOL has historically been subject to dramatic price fluctuations and is highly volatile. Moreover, digital assets, such as SOL, are relatively novel and the application of securities laws and other regulations to such assets is unclear in many respects. It is possible that regulators may interpret laws in a manner that adversely affects the liquidity or value of SOL.

Previous report

Any decrease in the fair value of SOL could require us to incur an unrealized loss on the SOL investment, and such charge could be material to our financial results for the applicable reporting period, which may create significant volatility in our reported earnings. Any decrease in reported earnings or increased volatility of such earnings could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. In addition, if investors view the value of our common stock as dependent upon or linked to the value or change in the value of our SOL holdings, the price of SOL may significantly influence the market price of our common stock.

Previous report

Historically, crypto markets have been characterized by significant volatility in price, limited liquidity and trading volumes compared to sovereign currency markets, relative anonymity, a developing regulatory landscape, potential susceptibility to market abuse and manipulation, compliance and internal control failures at exchanges, and various other risks inherent in its entirely electronic, virtual form and decentralized network. During times of market instability, we may not be able to sell our SOL at favorable prices or at all. Further, SOL we hold with our custodians and transact with our trade execution partners does not enjoy the same protections as are available to cash or securities deposited with or transacted by institutions subject to regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. Additionally, we may be unable to enter into term loans or other capital raising transactions collateralized by our unencumbered SOL or otherwise generate funds using our SOL holdings, including in particular during times of market instability or when the price of SOL has declined significantly. If we are unable to sell our SOL, enter into additional capital raising transactions using SOL as collateral, or otherwise generate funds using our SOL holdings, or if we are forced to sell our SOL at a significant loss, in order to meet our working capital requirements, our business and financial condition could be negatively impacted.

Previous report

Traditionally, the commercial real estate market is seasonal in nature, with the first and fourth fiscal quarters being more active than the second and third fiscal quarters. However, during fiscal 2024 and during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 the commercial real estate market was less seasonal due to the significant macroeconomic pressures in the commercial real estate market.

Previous report

On August 1, 2024, the Company entered into an At-the-Market Offering Agreement (the “ATM Sales Agreement”) with R.F. Lafferty & Co., Inc., as sales agent, to sell, from time to time, shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $0.99, through an “at the market” offering pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-281185), as supplemented by a prospectus supplement. As of December 31, 2024, there has been no activity to report with the Form S-3 Registration Statement and ATM Sales Agreement. As of the March 31, 2025, the Company issued approximately 13,000 shares of its common stock, raising approximately $70,000, in conjunction with its Form S-3 Registration Statement and ATM Sales Agreement. On April 15, 2025, we filed a prospectus supplement to increase our current ATM Sales Agreement from $1.5 million to $14.9 million. On May 5, 2025, we filed another prospectus supplement to increase our current ATM Sales Agreement from $14.9 million to $41.3 million, as we were no longer subject to the baby shelf S-3 limitation. Subsequent to March 31, 2025, the Company issued approximately 185,000 shares of its common stock, raising approximately $12.4 million, in conjunction with its Form S-3 Registration Statement and ATM Sales Agreement. We intend to continue to utilize the Form S-3 Registration Statement and ATM Sales Agreement for the raising of future capital in fiscal 2025.

Previous report

On January 15, 2025, the Company received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that the Company has regained compliance with the minimum closing bid price requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). As previously disclosed, on July 16, 2024, the Company was notified by Nasdaq that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because its common stock failed to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. To regain compliance, the Company was required to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share for at least 10 consecutive trading days. This requirement was met on January 13, 2025.

Previous report

The Company has adopted a treasury policy under which the principal holding in its treasury reserve on the balance sheet will be allocated to digital assets, starting with SOL by applying a proven public-market treasury model to an asset that’s earlier in its lifecycle, structurally reflexive, and underexposed as compared to Bitcoin. The Board approved the Company’s new treasury policy on April 4, 2025, authorizing long-term accumulation of SOL. The Company also aims to operate one or more SOL validators, enabling it to stake its treasury assets, participate in securing the network, and earn rewards that can be reinvested.* *

Previous report

On April 4, 2025, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements (“Securities Purchase Agreements”) with the investors identified on the signature pages thereto (“Investors”), pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investors approximately $42.0 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible notes (“Notes”), which are convertible into the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (“Common Stock”), together with warrants issued for each $1,000 in principal amount of convertible notes purchased to purchase (1) approximately 8.333 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $120 per share (“Warrant 1”) and (2) approximately 6.666 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $150 per share (“Warrant 2” and, together with Warrant 1, the “Warrants”).

Previous report

The Notes accrue interest at a rate of 2.5% per year, paid in cash quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, and mature on April 6, 2030. The Notes are convertible at any time prior to the Maturity Date, conditioned on the requirement that the Company’s market capitalization equaled or exceeded $100 million on the day prior to the conversion date (“Market Capitalization Condition”). The conversion price has been set at $68.19, the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market on the date that the Company’s market capitalization first exceeded $100 million. The conversion price will not be adjusted, except for customary anti-dilution and dividend protection. Conversion of the Notes, together with any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, at the time of conversion will be settled in shares of Common Stock.

Previous report

The holders of the Notes have the right to require the Company to repurchase the Notes at a price equal to 100% of par plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on April 6, 2028. In addition, the Company may redeem the notes on or after April 6, 2028, if the last reported sale price of the common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days during a period of 30 consecutive trading days at a price equal to 100% of par plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

Previous report

The Notes provide that the holder may not convert any portion of such holder’s Notes to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after conversion, except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to the Company, the holder may increase the beneficial ownership limitation to up to 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the conversion. The Notes contain certain other customary covenants and customary events of default provisions.

Previous report

The Warrants are exercisable immediately upon issuance and have a term of exercise equal to five years from the date of issuance. The Exercise Prices are subject to adjustments upon the issuance of stock dividends, and subdivision or combinations of shares of Common Stock by the Company.

Previous report

dbbmckennon, an independent registered public accounting firm, resigned as our independent registered public accounting firm on April 21, 2025, and we appointed Wolf & Company, P.C., as our independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of April 21, 2025, to audit and report on our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Subsequent to March 31, 2025, the Company adopted a new treasury policy and strategy under which the principal holding in its treasury reserve on the balance sheet will be allocated to digital assets, starting with Solana (“SOL”) by applying a proven public-market treasury model to an asset that’s earlier in its lifecycle, structurally reflexive, and underexposed as compared to Bitcoin. The Board of Directors approved the Company’s treasury policy on April 4, 2025, authorizing the long-term accumulation of SOL. The Company also aims to operate one or more SOL validators, enabling it to stake its treasury assets, participate in securing the network, and earn rewards that can be reinvested. This treasury strategy reflects a belief that SOL represents a high-conviction, long-term cryptoasset with superior technical performance, robust developer traction, and growing institutional adoption. The Company’s approach involves acquiring SOL directly—both through market purchases and strategic partnerships—and staking its holdings via Company-operated validators to generate native staking yield. This treasury initiative enhances the Company’s capital allocation strategy and does not affect its core commercial real estate platform, which remains fully operational. The AI-powered marketplace, software offerings, and subscription services supporting the multifamily and commercial property ecosystem continue to be a central part of the Company’s business.
