Through June 30, 2025, the Company has funded its operations mainly through equity and debt financings, including the proceeds from the Mergers and the PIPE Financing.
Current report
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $1,338,222 of cash in its bank accounts. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there was $1,442,500 and $19,973,000, respectively, of related party debts, which are included in Short-term debt, related parties in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Current report
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 205-40,Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Current report
Management’s plans relating to the above include raising additional cash through equity and debt financings or other arrangements to fund operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise adequate capital under acceptable terms, if at all. The sale of additional equity may dilute existing members and newly issued equity securities may contain senior rights and preferences compared to currently outstanding common stock. Issued debt securities may contain covenants and limit the Company’s ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to stockholders. If the Company is unable to obtain such additional financing, future operations would need to be reevaluated.

Previous report
Prior to the Business Combination, the Company has no substantive operations, and the purpose of the Company is to facilitate the Business Combination. Although the Business Combination was completed on April 30, 2025, the Company does not believe the funds of the combined company will be sufficient to allow the company to continue as a going concern twelve months from the issuance date of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. As such, this raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities as reported within the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
