Description of business and basis of presentation

Merger with FAST II

Falcon’s Beyond Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Pubco”, “FBG”, or the “Company”), entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 1, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Pubco, FAST Acquisition Corp. II, a Delaware corporation (“FAST II”), Falcon’s Beyond Global, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Falcon’s Opco”), and Palm Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Merger Sub”).

On October 5, 2023 FAST II merged with and into Pubco (the “SPAC Merger”), with Pubco surviving as the sole owner of Merger Sub, followed by a contribution by Pubco of all of its cash (except for cash required to pay certain transaction expenses) to Merger Sub to effectuate the “UP-C” structure; and on October 6, 2023 Merger Sub merged with and into Falcon’s Opco (the “Acquisition Merger,” and collectively with the SPAC Merger, the “Business Combination”), with Falcon’s Opco as the surviving entity of such merger. Following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Closing”), the direct interests in Falcon’s Opco were held by Pubco and certain holders of the limited liability company units of Falcon’s Opco outstanding as of immediately prior to the Business Combination.

Transaction costs related to the Business Combination of $16.2 million are not yet settled at December 31, 2025. Negotiations regarding the terms of the costs yet to be settled are still ongoing and may change materially from the amounts accrued.

Nature of Operations

The Company is a visionary entertainment and technology enterprise at the forefront of the global experience economy. We design, develop, engineer, deliver, and commercialize immersive physical and digital experiences for leading brands, developers, and destination operators worldwide, as well as for our own portfolio of entertainment and technology concepts. Our business is built on an integrated experience platform that brings together creative development, proprietary technologies, advanced engineering, intellectual property (“IP”), and operational execution to enable the repeatable creation, deployment, and scaling of entertainment experiences across multiple formats and locations globally. We operate through three complementary business divisions: Falcon’s Creative Group (“FCG”), Falcon’s Beyond Brands (“FBB”), and Falcon’s Beyond Destinations (“FBD”), each of which serves a distinct role within the Company’s operating model and participates in different stages of value creation within the experience economy. These divisions are conducted through five andfour operating segments as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. FCG provides creative and advisory services including destination strategy, master planning, experiential and attraction design, digital media, interactive software, IP development, and creative guardianship for entertainment and hospitality destinations. FBB, consisting of Falcon's Attractions and FBB, encompasses a broad portfolio of intellectual property, proprietary technologies, and operating businesses that design, engineer, commercialize, and deploy entertainment systems, products, content, and experiences across physical and digital environments. FBD, consisting of Producciones de Parques, S.L., a joint venture between Falcon’s and Meliá Hotels International, S.A. (“Meliá”) (“PDP”), and Destinations Operations, develops, owns, operates, and expands entertainment venues, hospitality experiences, and branded destination concepts across a variety of location‑based formats, utilizing proprietary and third‑party intellectual property.

Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries for which it exercises control. Long-term investments in affiliated companies in which the Company exercises significant influence, but which it does not control, are accounted for using the equity method. The Company does not have any significant variable interest entities or special purpose entities whose financial results are not included in the consolidated financial statements.

The financial statements of the Company’s operating foreign subsidiaries are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average monthly exchange rates prevailing during the period. Resulting translation adjustments are included in Accumulated other comprehensive Income (loss).

Principles of Consolidation

The non-controlling interest represents the membership interest in Falcon’s Opco held by holders other than the Company.

The results of operations attributable to the non-controlling interest are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, and the non-controlling interest is reported as a separate component of equity.

The Company consolidates the assets, liabilities and operating results of Falcon’s Opco and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP").

Liquidity

The Company has been engaged in expanding its operations through its equity method investments, developing new product offerings, acquiring businesses, raising capital and recruiting personnel. The Company has incurred a loss from operations, and negative cash flows from operating activities, as it has invested in the integration and growth of the Falcon's Beyond Brands division and the newly acquired OES business. Accordingly, the Company performed an evaluation of its ability to continue as a going concern through at least twelve months from the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.

During 2025, the Company issued $32.5 million of shares of a newly created series of preferred stock designated as “11% Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock” (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) for $11.8 million in cash and the exchange of $20.7 million of outstanding debt. The $11.8 million in cash was utilized for the expansions of the attractions division. See "Note 13 – Equity."

The Company’s development plans, and investments have been funded by the sale of non-core assets from its equity method investment and a combination of debt and equity investments from its stockholders. During 2025, PDP sold all of the shares of Tertian XXI, S.L., a wholly-owned subsidiary of PDP, which owned the real estate assets comprising the resort hotel at Tenerife. The Company received $27.0 million in a cash dividend distribution from PDP as a result of the transaction, which was used to fund ongoing operations. See "Note 6 - Investments and advances to equity method investments."

The Company is reliant upon its stockholders, and third parties for obtaining additional financing through debt or equity raises, and from distributions from the liquidation of non-core equity method investments and assets, to fund its working capital needs, contractual commitments, and expansion plans. As of December 31, 2025, the Company continues to carry material accrued expenses and accounts payable in relation to its external advisors fees for the 2023 Business Combination. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $18.1 million including $0.6 million debt that matured on May 16, 2025 and debt coming due of $2.6 million.

The Company does not currently have sufficient cash or liquidity to pay all liabilities that are owed or are maturing in the next twelve months and fund ongoing operations and therefore concluded substantial doubt exists about its ability to continue as a gong concern. There can be no assurance that additional capital or financing raises, or liquidation of non-core assets and investments, if completed, will provide the necessary funding for the next twelve months from the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Summary of significant accounting policies

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company has prepared the estimates using the most current and best available information that are considered reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ materially from those estimates. Accounting policies subject to estimates include, but are not limited to, inputs used to recognize revenue over time, fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in relation to a business combination, deferred tax valuation allowances, the valuation and impairment testing of goodwill and investments in equity method investments, and the valuation of warrant and earnout liabilities.

Business combinations

The Company utilizes the acquisition method of accounting under ASC 805, Business Combinations ("ASC 805"), for all transactions and events in which it obtains control over one or more other businesses (even if less than 100% ownership is acquired), to recognize the fair value of all assets and liabilities assumed and to establish the acquisition date fair value as of the measurement date.

While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions as part of the purchase price allocation process to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date, the estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company records adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill or bargain purchase to the extent we identify adjustments to the preliminary fair values. For changes in the valuation of intangible assets between the preliminary and final purchase price allocation, the related amortization is adjusted in the period it occurs. Subsequent to the measurement period, any adjustment to assets acquired or liabilities assumed is included in operating results in the period in which the adjustment is determined. Transaction expenses that are incurred in connection with a business combination, other than costs associated with the issuance of debt or equity securities, are expensed as incurred.

Contingent consideration is classified as a liability or as equity on the basis of the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument; contingent consideration payable in cash is classified as a liability. The Company recognizes the fair value of any contingent consideration that is transferred to the seller in a business combination on the date at which control of the acquiree is obtained. Contingent consideration payments related to acquisitions are measured at fair value each reporting period using Level 3 unobservable inputs (as defined in the Fair value measurement policy below). When reported, any changes in the fair value of these contingent consideration payments are included in contingent earnout expense on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Based on the specific analysis of its contracts, the Company has determined that its contracts are subject to revenue recognition in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Recognition under the ASC 606 five-step model involves (i) identification of the contract, (ii) identification of performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determination of the transaction price, (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the previously identified performance obligations, and (v) revenue recognition as the performance obligations are satisfied.

The timing of billings and cash collections result in contract assets and contract liabilities. Contract assets represent revenue recognized in excess of amounts invoiced to the customer for which the right to payment is not subject to the passage of time and relate primarily to unbilled invoices for Attraction services and Product sales. Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of performance under a contract. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.

The Company generates revenue from the following revenue streams: Shared services, Destinations operations, Attraction services, and Product sales.

Shared services

The Company provides corporate shared services support to FCG. The Company recognizes revenue related to these services in the amount the Company has a right to invoice. The Company uses the right to invoice practical expedient, as the Company’s right to payment corresponds directly with the value to FCG of the Company’s performance to date.

Destinations operations services

The principal sources of revenues for the Destinations Operations segment are resort and theme park management and incentive fees. Resort and theme park management and incentive fees are based on a percentage of revenues and profits, respectively earned by the theme parks during the corresponding period.

Attraction services

The Company's Falcon's Attractions segment provides attraction services to its customers on a time and material basis. The Company recognizes revenue related to these services using the right to invoice practical expedient.

Product sales

The Company recognizes revenue at the point in time when control transfers to the customer, thus satisfying the performance obligation.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents includes restricted cash held by the Company as required by the credit card arrangement.

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of Cash and cash equivalents, Accounts receivable and Contract assets. The Company places its Cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high credit quality. At times, such amounts exceed federally insured limits. Management believes that no significant concentration of credit risk exists with respect to these cash balances because of its assessment of the creditworthiness and financial viability of the respective financial institutions.

The Company provides credit to its customers located both inside and outside the United States in its normal course of business. Receivables are presented net of an allowance for credit losses based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of customer accounts. The Company maintains an allowance that provides for an adequate reserve to cover estimated losses on receivables as well as contract assets. The Company determines the adequacy of the allowance by estimating the probability of loss based on the Company’s historical credit loss experience and taking into consideration current market conditions and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. The Company regularly evaluates receivable and contract asset balances considering factors such as the customer’s creditworthiness, historical payment experience and the age of the outstanding balance. Changes to expected credit losses during the period are included in Credit loss expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. After concluding that a reserved accounts receivable is no longer collectible, the Company reduces both the gross receivable and the allowance for credit losses. There wasno allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The Company hadtwo customers with revenue greater than 10% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025. FBG had revenue from FCG of $6.6 million(45% of total revenue) and $6.2 million (93% of total revenue) for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Accounts receivable balances from FCG totaled $2.4 million (64% of total Accounts receivable) and $1.4 million (83% of total Accounts receivable) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Revenue from the second customer totaled$4.1 million(28% of total revenue) and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Accounts receivable balances from the second customer totaled$0.6 million (16% oftotal Accounts receivable) and $0 asof December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Deferred transaction costs

The Company deferred $0.6 million transaction expenses related to a proposed underwritten offering of the Company's Class A common stock (the "Follow-on Offering") as of December 31, 2024, which had not been completed. In connection with the Follow-on Offering, a Registration Statement on Form S-1 was filed. Deferred transaction costs were included in Other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024. Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of equity were charged to operations during the year ended December 31, 2025 as the Follow-on Offering was not completed.

The Company uses the equity method to account for investments in corporate joint ventures when we have the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating decisions of the joint venture. Such investments are initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for our proportionate share of the net earnings or loss of the investee, which is reported in Share of gain (loss) from equity method investments in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Dividends received, if any, from these joint ventures reduce the carrying amount of our investment.

The Company monitors the equity method investments for impairment and records reductions in their carrying value if the carrying amount of an investment exceeds its fair value. An impairment charge is recorded when such impairment is deemed to be other-than-temporary. To determine whether an impairment is other-than-temporary, we consider our ability and intent to hold the investment until the carrying amount is fully recovered.

Leases

The Company evaluates leases at the commencement of the lease to determine the classification as an operating or finance lease. A right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and corresponding lease liability are recorded at lease commencement. Operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of minimum lease payments over the remaining expected lease term. Lease expenses related to operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis as a component of Selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Property and equipment is stated at historical cost, net of accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Expenditures that materially increase the life of the assets are capitalized. Routine repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. When an item is retired or sold, the cost and applicable accumulated depreciation are removed, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset using the following terms:

Equipment3 – 5 years
Furniture7 years
Leasehold improvementsLesser of lease term or asset life

Intangible assets

The Company initially records its intangible assets at fair value. Definite lived intangible assets consist of developed technology, tradenames and trademarks and software rights which are located in the United States of America and are amortized over their estimated useful lives.

The Company reviews definite lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these amortizing intangible assets is determined by comparing the forecasted undiscounted net cash flows of the operation to which the assets relate to the carrying amount. If the operation is determined to be unable to recover the carrying amount of its assets, then the assets are written down to fair value. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, depending on the nature of the assets.

Recoverability of other long-lived assets

The Company’s other long-lived assets consist primarily of property and equipment and lease ROU assets located in the United States of America. The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. For property and equipment and lease ROU assets, the Company compares the estimated undiscounted cash flows generated by the asset or asset group to the current carrying value of the asset. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, then the asset is written down to fair value.

Earnout Liability

At the Closing of the Business Combination, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, certain holders were entitled to receive up to a total of 1,937,500 and 75,562,500 contingent earnout shares (“Earnout Shares”) in the form of Class A and Class B common stock of the Company, respectively. The Earnout Shares were placed into an escrow account for the benefit of certain holders pursuant to the Merger Agreement. See "Note 14 – Earnouts" for earnout modification.

Warrant liabilities

The Company accounts for warrants assumed in connection with the Business Combination (see "Note 1 – Description of business and basis of presentation") in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging(“ASC 815”), under which the warrants that do not meet the criteria for equity treatment are recorded as liabilities. Prior to January 14, 2025, the Company classified the warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusted the warrants to fair value at the end of each reporting period. The Company remeasured the fair value of the warrants based on the quoted market price of the warrants. The liability was subject to re-measurement at each Balance Sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. See "Note 15 – Stock warrants" for earnout modification.

The Company accounts for certain of its financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The Company uses the following three-level hierarchy, which prioritizes, within the measurement of fair value, the use of market-based information over entity-specific information for fair value measurements based on the nature of inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date.

Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and value drivers are observable in active markets.
Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.

Fair value focuses on an exit price and is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities which are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as risk inherent in valuation techniques, transfer restrictions and credit risks. The inputs or methodology used for valuing financial instruments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those financial instruments.

The carrying amounts of Cash and cash equivalents, Accounts receivables, Accounts payable and Accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities.

Net income per share

Basic earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net income attributable to Class A common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net income attributable to Class A common stockholders, adjusted for the assumed exchange of all potentially dilutive securities by the weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive securities, to the extent their inclusion is dilutive to earnings per share.

The Company applies the treasury stock method to the Warrants and RSUs, the contingently issuable shares method to the Earnout shares, and the if-converted method for the exchangeable noncontrolling interests, if dilutive.

On September 8, 2025, the Company issued convertible Series B Preferred Stock. The convertible Series B Preferred Stock receives dividends and participates in earnings alongside common stockholders and is therefore classified as a participating security. For basic earnings per share, the Company applies the two-class method. Under the two-class method, net income is reduced by the preferred dividends and earnings allocated to participating securities. Further, because the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into Class A common stock, it also represents a potential common share for diluted EPS. For participating securities that are convertible into common stock, the Company calculates the diluted earnings per share using the more dilutive of the two-class method and the if-converted method.

Incentive Award Plan

The Company maintains the 2023 Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”) under which the Company issued grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) on December 21, 2023, to officers, directors, employees, and non-employees that vest according to afive-year graded vesting schedule where portions of the award vest at different times during the vesting period. The Company recognizes compensation expense for the RSUs in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”) using the straight-line attribution method over the requisite service period for the entire award, as long as the participant continues to provide service to the Company. The RSUs are settled in equity and do not grant the Company the ability to settle in cash or transfer other assets. The compensation expense related to the RSUs is based on the estimated fair value of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the grant date using the closing share price. Furthermore, the Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur and will reverse any compensation expense previously recognized in the period of forfeiture. The Company initially reserved 1,127,196 shares of its Class A Common Stock for the issuance of awards under the Plan.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses include payroll, payroll taxes and benefits for non-project related employee salaries, share-based compensation, taxes, and benefits as well as technology infrastructure, marketing, occupancy, finance and accounting, legal, human resources, and corporate overhead expenses.

Transaction expenses are stated separately in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Transaction expenses include professional services expenditures directly related to business comb inations, other investments, and disposals of other assets and liabilities that qualify as a business. The Company recognized a credit of $3.6 million for year ended December 31, 2025 as a result of a reduction in accrued transaction expenses due to a negotiated settlement with the service provider. The Company also recognized $1.9 million in transaction expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 related to a proposed underwritten offering of the Company's Class A common stock during the first quarter in 2025 that was not completed.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses primarily consist of related party vendor costs involved in research and development activities related to the development of new products. Research and development expenses are expensed in the period incurred.

Translation of foreign currencies

The functional currency for the Company’s foreign operations is the applicable local currency. The Company translates assets and liabilities of subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar using the applicable exchange rate as of the consolidated balance sheet dates and the results of operations and cash flows at the average exchange rates during the corresponding reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the translation of these foreign currencies into U.S. dollars are recorded in foreign currency translation adjustments in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Transactional gains and losses and the re-measurement of foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities held in non-functional currency of the underlying entity are included in Foreign currency translation gain (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, respectively.

The Company is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes and is subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes, the Company is allocated local and foreign income taxes from taxable income generated by Falcon’s Beyond Global, LLC. Falcon’s Beyond Global, LLC is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and therefore is not subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes except for certain consolidated subsidiaries that are subject to taxation in foreign jurisdictions as a result of their entity classification for tax reporting purposes.

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets (“DTA”) and deferred tax liabilities (“DTL”) for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, the Company determines DTAs and DTLs on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on DTAs and DTLs is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company recognizes DTAs to the extent that it is believed that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, carryback potential if permitted under the tax law, and results of recent operations. If determined that FBG would be able to realize DTAs in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, FBG would make an adjustment to the DTA valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

At each balance sheet date, management assesses the need to establish a valuation allowance that reduces deferred income tax assets when it is more likely than not that all, or some portion, of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. A valuation allowance would be based on all available information including the Company’s assessment of uncertain tax positions and projections of future taxable income and capital gains from each tax-paying component in each jurisdiction, principally derived from business plans and available tax planning strategies.

FBG records uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes(“ASC 740”) on the basis of a two-step process. The Company will determine whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical meritsof the position and for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, FBG recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to tax positions in income tax expense.

Related parties are comprised of parties which have the ability, directly or indirectly, to control or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions, and parties under common control. Transactions where there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties are disclosed or referenced in "Note 23 – Related party transactions."

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts in these consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Recently issued accounting standards

Business combination

On May 9, 2025, the Company purchased certain tangible assets and portfolio of intellectual property, including patented technologies, proprietary engineering and manufacturing processes, from Oceaneering Entertainment Systems (“OES”), a division of Oceaneering International Inc. (“OII”) for $1.6 million cash consideration, the ("OES Acquisition"). The acquisition is part of the Falcon's Attractions segment and was completed to expand our attractions services business. The Company also assumed the lease for a 103,000+ square-foot facility to be utilized by the Falcon’s Beyond Brands division for research, development, manufacturing, and integration of attraction sales and services. The Company had an option to acquire vehicle inventory and lifting assets on or before July 23, 2025, for an additional $7.5 million (the "Option”), or pay $0.5 million additional consideration for the acquisition, if the Company chose not to exercise the option. The Company did not exercise the Option and recorded an accounts payable additional consideration of $0.5 million. The Company paid the additional consideration of $0.5 million in January 2026. In February 2025, the Company hired a team of 29 employees that had previously worked for OES. Employees were hired under customary terms and conditions for newly hired employees and no benefits or obligations from OES were paid or assumed associated with these employees.

The OES Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, which requires that purchase consideration, assets acquired and liabilities assumed be measured at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair value of the intangible assets was determined using an income approach based on the relief from royalty method. For the favorable lease fair values, we used market rent, market growth rate and discount rate, as relevant, that market participants would consider when estimating fair values. The fair value of the property and equipment was determined using a combination of the cost and market approaches. The estimation of the property and equipment fair value considered the cost, replacement cost, ages, condition, expected useful life, and the intended use for each asset.

The total purchase price was allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values. The total purchase price was allocated and revised as follows:

The fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeded the fair value of the purchase price. As a result, the Company reassessed the recognition and measurement of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and concluded that the valuation procedures and resulting measurements were appropriate. Accordingly, the acquisition has been accounted for as a bargain purchase and as a result, the Company recognized a gain of $1.1 million associated with the acquisition for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in gain on bargain purchase of OES Acquisition in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The bargain purchase was a result of OES's plan to divest certain non-core operations.

The Company recognized $7.8 million in revenues and $2.5 million in net loss (including shared service allocation of $2.1 million), respectively, attributable to OES for year ended December 31, 2025. The Company didnot incur transaction costs related to the OES Acquisition.

The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures using the equity method of accounting. The Company’s joint ventures are as follows:

i)

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement by and between FCG and QIC Delaware, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an affiliate of QIC (the “Subscription Agreement”), QIC Delaware, Inc., holds 25% of FCG's equity interest in the form of preferred units (the "Strategic Investment"), and the Company, holds the remaining 75% of the equity interest in the form of common units. FCG's amended and restated limited liability company agreement (“LLCA”) includes QIC as a member and provides QIC with certain consent, priority and preemptive rights.

QIC is entitled to redeem its preferred units on the earlier of (a) the five-year anniversary of the Strategic Investment on July 27, 2028 or (b) any date on which a majority of key persons cease to be employed by FCG. The LLCA contains contractual provisions regarding the distribution of FCG’s income or loss. Pursuant to these provisions, QIC is entitled to a redemption amount of the initial $30.0 million investment plus a 9% annual compounding preferred return. QIC does not absorb losses from FCG that would cause its investment to drop below this redemption amount and any losses not absorbed by QIC are fully allocated to the Company.

QIC, as the holder of the preferred units of FCG, has priority with respect to any distributions by FCG, to the extent there is cash available. Under the LLCA, such distributions are payable (i) first, to QIC until the holders’ preferred return is reduced to zero, (ii) second, to QIC until the investment amount is reduced to zero, (iii) third, to the Company until it has received an amount per common unit equal to the amount per preferred unit paid to QIC, and (iv) fourth, to QIC and the Company on a pro-rata basis of 25% and 75%, respectively.

The Company recognizes 100% of net income (loss), less 9% preferred return to QIC, accretion of fees and amortization of the basis difference of deconsolidation of FCG. The Company will continue to recognize 100% of the gains or losses from its equity method investment in FCG based on the terms of the LLCA untilthe split in equity accounts becomes 25% related to QIC and 75% to the Company.

The LLCA grants QIC the right to block or participate in certain significant operating and capital decisions of FCG, including the approval of FCG’s budget and business plan, strategic investments, and incurring additional debt, among others. These rights allow QIC to effectively participate in significant financial and operating decisions of FCG that are made in FCG’s ordinary course of business. As such, the Company does not have a controlling financial interest since QIC has the substantive right to participate in FCG’s business decisions. Therefore, FCG is accounted for as an equity method investment in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company and FCG are part of an intercompany service agreement (“Intercompany Services Agreement”) and a license agreement.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, FCG terminated three leases with Penut, a related party of FCG. As the termination of these leases extinguished a liability with a related party at no cost, the gain on termination of $0.5 millionwas accounted for by FCG as a capital contribution. The Company adjusted its equity method investment in FCG to reflect the change in the Company's claimon FCG's net assets. This adjustment was recognized in the Company's consolidated balance sheet as Share of change in equity of equity method investment.

ii)

PDP

PDP is an unconsolidated joint venture with Meliá Hotels International, S.A. (“Meliá Group”) for the development and operation of hotel resorts and theme parks. The Company has 50% voting rights and shares 50% of profits and losses in this joint venture. PDP operates one hotel resort and theme park located in Mallorca, Spain. PDP operated a hotel located at Tenerife in the Canary Islands until the sale on May 30, 2025. PDP sold all of the shares of Tertian XXI, S.L., (“Tertian”) a wholly-owned subsidiary of PDP, which owned the real estate assets comprising the resort hotel at Tenerife, the (“Tenerife Sale”).

The Company rece ived $27.0 million in a cash dividend distribution from PDP as a result of the transaction. PDP recognized a pre tax gain on saleof $60.0 million. The Company recognized its 50% share of the gain of $30.0 million in share of gain from equity method investments included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Partial Impairment of Investment in PDP

The Tenerife Sale represents a significant change in circumstances that could impact the fair value of the Company’s remaining investment in PDP. Accordingly, the Company performed an impairment evaluation of its equity method investment in PDP to determine whether the remaining carrying amount of the investment exceeds its fair value.

The Company evaluated its remaining equity investment in PDP for impairment as of June 30, 2025 and determined that it was other-than-temporarily impaired. The Company estimated the fair value of its investment in PDP using the direct capitalization method of the income approach. The Company used the property's estimated net operating income, yearly growth rate, capital expenditure reserves and a capitalization rate as the primary significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). The estimated fair value is based upon assumptions that Management believes are reasonable, and the impact of variations in these estimates or the underlying assumptions could be material. The fair value of the Company’s investment in PDP was determined to be $27.1 million. As of December 31, 2025, the Company recognized an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $5.3 million, which is recorded in Share of gain (loss) from equity method investments in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

iii)

Karnival

The Company has a 50% interest in Karnival, an unconsolidated joint venture with Raging Power Limited, a subsidiary of New World Development Company Limited (“Raging Power”). The purpose of the joint venture was to hold ownership interests in entities developing and operating amusement centers located in the People’s Republic of China. The Company has concluded that Karnival is a VIE, because the Company does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of Karnival, as such decisions are taken by the unanimous consent of the representatives of the joint venture partners. The Company, therefore, does not consolidate Karnival and accounts for the investment as an equity method investment. In October 2025, the Company and its joint venture partners agreed to terminate this project and windup the joint venture due to protracted delays in the underlying location development schedule. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had funded $6.6 million (HKD 51 million). The advances provided to Karnival are accounted for as investments and classified within Investments and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures equity method investments.

Partial Impairment of Investment in Karnival

The winding up process of the joint venture represents a significant change in circumstances that could impact the fair value of the Company’s remaining investment in Karnival. Accordingly, the Company performed an impairment evaluation of its equity method investment in Karnival to determine whether the remaining carrying amount of the investment exceeds its fair value. The Company evaluated its remaining equity investment in Karnival for impairment as of September 30, 2025 and determined that it was other-than-temporarily impaired. The Company estimated the fair value of its investment in Karnival using the liquidation value of cash and cash equivalents less estimated costs to liquidate as the primary unobservable inputs (Level 2). The estimated fair value is based upon assumptions that Management believes are reasonable, and the impact of variations in these estimates or the underlying assumptions could be material. The fair value of the Company’s investment in Karnival was dete rmined to be $4.2 million. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $3.0 million, which is recorded in Share of gain (loss) from equity method investments in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

iv)

Excise tax liability

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year.

In connection with the Business Combination, holders of FAST II Class A Common Stock exercised their right to redeem those shares for a pro rata portion of the cash in the FAST II trust account. These redemptions are subject to the excise tax, and the resulting liability was assumed by the Company in the Business Combination. The Company paid $2.2 million in excise tax, and $0.3 million interest and penalties related to this obligation during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Equity

Common Stock

Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held of record by such holder on all matters on which stockholders generally are entitled to vote. Shares of Class B Common Stock carry the same voting rights as shares of Class A Common Stock but have no economic terms. Class B Common Stock is exchangeable, along with common units of Falcon’s Opco, into Class A Common Stock.

Series B Preferred Stock

During 2025, the Company entered into subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with accredited investors, including Gino P. Lucadamo, a director of the Company (the “Investors”). The Company issued $32.5 million of shares of a newly created series of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, designated as “11% Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock” (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), at a purchase price of $5.00 per share, for 6,507,742 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The Company received $11.8 million in cash and the exchange of an aggregate of $20.5 million of outstanding indebtedness.

Debt Exchange Agreement

On September 8, 2025, the Company entered into a Debt Exchange Agreement (the “Debt Exchange Agreement”) with Infinite Acquisitions to exchange $20.5 million of debt and accrued interest for $20.5 millionof shares of Series B Preferred Stock, at a per share price of $5.00, for 4,092,326 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The debt exchanged included the $14.77 million term loan, term loan accrued interest of $0.2 million and $5.5 million of the outstanding amount under the revolving credit arrangement. The exchange was accounted for as a debt extinguishment.

Series B Preferred Stock Liquidation Preferences

The Series B Preferred Stock ranks senior to the shares of the Company’s common stock with respect to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. The Series B Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference equal to the greater of $5.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, or the amount per share as would have been paid had all shares of Series B Preferred Stock been converted into shares of Class A Common Stock immediately prior to the liquidation event.

Series B Preferred Stock Dividend

The Series B Preferred Stock has an annual cumulative dividend rate of 11% of the $5.00 per share liquidation preference, which accrues quarterly. Prior to January 1, 2027, accrued dividends will be paid in Series B Preferred Stock (the “Dividend Shares”) equal to the aggregate accrued dividends unpaid divided by $5.00 when and if declared by the Board. On and after January 1, 2027, all dividends accrued will be paid in cash. Any dividends not declared and paid in Dividend Shares or cash will be added to the liquidation preference of each share of Series B Preferred Stock.

Upon the declaration of a dividend on the Class A Common Stock, the Series B Preferred Stockholders will receive a dividend, equal to the product of the dividend on each share of Class A Common Stock and the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a share of Series B Preferred Stock.

Series B Preferred Stock Conversion Rights

The Series B Preferred Stock will convert into shares of Class A Common Stock at the then-applicable conversion rate, automatically following the third anniversary of the original issuance date, if at any time the volume weighted average sale price of one share of Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $10.00 per share, as adjusted, for a period of at least 21 trading days out of 30 consecutive trading days. The initial conversion rate isone-to-one. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock do not have the right to elect to convert the Series B Preferred Stock.

In the event of a reorganization involving the Company, such as a merger, consolidation, reclassification, or statutory exchange, where Class A Common Stock is exchanged for cash, securities, or other property, each outstanding share of Preferred Stock will become convertible into the same form and proportion of consideration that a holder of Class A Common Stock would have received, had the Preferred Stock been converted immediately prior to the event. This conversion right is contingent upon all holders of pari passu and subordinated equity instruments receiving the same form of consideration. If each share of Class A Common Stock, or pari passu or subordinated equity instrument, is entitled to receive a mix of kind or amount of securities, cash and/or other property upon such reorganization event, the Preferred Stock holders shall be entitled to receive the same mix and form of consideration.

Series B Preferred Voting Rights

The holders of Series B Preferred Stock have the right to vote on an as-converted to Class A Common Stock basis on all matters presented to the Company’s stockholders. Additionally, holders of Series B Preferred Stock have customary protective provisions.

Earnouts

At the Closing of the Business Combination, the Company issued 1,937,500 Earnout Shares in the form of Class A Common Stock and 75,562,500 Earnout Shares in the form of Class B Common Stock. The Earnout Shares were placed into an escrow account for the benefit of certain holders pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

Earnout Shares were deposited into escrow at Closing to be earned, released and delivered upon satisfaction of, or forfeited and cancelled upon the failure of certain milestones related to the EBITDA and the gross revenue of the Company during periods between July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2024, and the volume weighted average closing sale price of the Company’s shares of Class A Common Stock during the five-year period beginning on the one-year anniversary of the Acquisition Merger and ending on the six-year anniversary of the Acquisition Merger. During the year ended December 31, 2024,224,857 and 8,775,000 Class A and Class B shares were earned and released, respectively.312,500 Earnout Shares in the form of Class A Common Stock were forfeited and 12,187,500 Earnout Shares in the form of Class B Common Stock were forfeited.

Prior to September 30, 2024, the Earnout Shares were classified as a liability and measured at fair value, with changes in fair value included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. On September 30, 2024, earnout participants agreed to forfeit all remaining earnout shares held in escrow, which were to be released and earned based on meeting EBITDA and revenue targets. An aggregate of 437,500 shares of Class A common stock and 17,062,500 shares of Class B common stock and an equal number of Falcon’s Opco units were forfeited in connection with the earnout shares forfeiture.

The forfeiture is treated as a modification of the original earnout agreement. The remaining earnout shares which are to be released and earned based on the Company’s stock price meet the requirements for equity classification after the modification. The Company adjusted the fair value of the earnout shares a final time on September 30, 2024, immediately prior to the modification. The total adjusted liability balance, including the amount associated with the forfeited earnout shares, was reclassified into equity as of September 30, 2024.

Prior to reclassification into equity, the fair value of the earnout liability was $250.1 million as of September 30, 2024. After the reclassification to equity, the earnout shares do not require subsequent fair value measurement.

On December 2, 2025, the first stock price-based earnout trigger was met. As of December 2, 2025, Company’s volume weighted average closing sale price of its Class A common stock was greater than $16.67 for a period of at least twenty out of thirty consecutive trading days ending on December 2, 2025, and accordingly,15,000,000 of the outstanding earnout shares and units were earned, released from escrow, and delivered to shareholders. No new securities were issued. The released shares and units are subject to transfer restrictions for a period ending 365 days after they are earned, released and delivered from escrow.

Stock warrants

Prior to January 14, 2025, the warrants were classified as a liability and measured at fair value, with changes in fair value included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The warrant agreement was amended effective January 14, 2025. The amendment provides for the mandatory exchange of the warrants for shares of Class A Common Stock at an exchange ratio of 0.25 shares of Class A Common Stock per warrant, on October 6, 2028. The warrants will not be exercisable and the holders of the warrants will have no further rights except to receive shares of Class A Common Stock on October 6, 2028.

The remaining warrants meet the requirements for equity classification after the amendment. The Company adjusted the fair value of the warrants a final time on January 14, 2025, immediately prior to the amendment effective date. The total adjusted liability balance was reclassified into equity on January 14, 2025. After the reclassification to equity, the warrants do not require subsequent fair value measurement.

As of December 31, 2025, there are 5,177,089 warrants outstanding which will be exchanged for 1,294,272 shares of Class A Common Stock on October 6, 2028.

As of December 31, 2024, there are 5,177,089 warrants outstanding. Concurrent with the 0.2 stock dividend paid on December 17, 2024, the exercise price of each outstanding warrant was automatically adjusted. The warrants outstanding became exercisable at a price of $9.58 per share for 1.034999 shares of Class A common stock. For the year ended December 31, 2024,28,680 warrants were exercised for 29,684 shares of Class A Common Stock.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are comprised of:

Level 1Level 2Level 3Total
Liabilities:
Warrant liabilities$4,711——$4,711
$4,711$—$—$4,711

The warrant liability fair value is based on quoted market prices in active markets, and therefore is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The earnouts based on revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) as well as the earnouts based on the Company’s stock price were classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy as the fair value was derived using a Monte Carlo simulation analysis in a risk neutral framework, which used a combination of observable (Level 2) and unobservable (Level 3) inputs. Key estimates and assumptions impacting the fair value measurement include the Company’s revenue and EBITDA forecasts as well as the assumptions listed in the tables below.

The Company estimated the fair value per share of the underlying common stock based, in part, on the results of third-party valuations and additional factors deemed relevant. The risk-free interest rate was determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve for time periods approximately equal to the remaining contractual term of the earnouts. The Company has not paid cash dividends and does not intend to do so in the foreseeable future. The payment of any dividends is within the discretion of the Company’s board of directors and will be dependent upon the Company’s revenue and earnings, if any, capital requirements, and general financial condition. Further, the Company’s ability to declare dividends may be limited by the terms of financing or other agreements entered into by us or our subsidiaries from time to time, including certain consent rights in connection with the Strategic Investment.

On September 30, 2024, following the earnout forfeiture, the Company adjusted the fair value of all earnout shares a final time, immediately before the modification (see "Note 14 – Earnouts" for details on the modification), and ignoring the effect of the modification. The total adjusted liability balance, including the amount associated with the forfeited earnout shares, was reclassified into equity on September 30, 2024. After reclassification into equity, the earnout shares do not require subsequent fair value measurement.

Unobservable inputs of the earnout liability for earnout shares based on revenue and EBITDA targets are as follows:

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2, nor into and out of Level 3, during the periods presented. As of September 30, 2024, all earnouts were adjusted to fair value and reclassified into equity. See "Note 14 – Earnouts" for details on the fair value of the earnout liability as of September 30, 2024.

Share-based compensation

The Company adopted a share-based compensation plan (the “Plan”) under which each vested Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive one Class A Common Share. Under the Plan, RSUs with service-based conditions may be granted to directors, officers, employees, and non-employees. RSUs were granted to employees of both the Company and FCG. However, FCG fully reimburses FBG for the compensation cost associated with these grants. As such, expenses related to the RSUs granted to employees of FCG do not represent a purchase of services or contribution to FCG.

The RSUs do not provide the grantee with an option to choose settlement in cash or stock. The holder of the RSU shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, a shareholder of the Company, including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to dividends, in respect to the RSUs and any shares underlying the RSUs and deliverable under the Plan unless and until such shares shall have been issued by the Company and held of record by such holder. The fair value of these RSUs is estimated based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant using the closing price on the day of grant.

A summary of the Plan’s RSUs award activity is as follows:

RestrictedStock Units
Nonvested at January 1, 20251,077,498
Granted92,500
Forfeited(264,878)
Vested(216,870)
Nonvested shares outstanding at December 31, 2025688,250
Vested shares outstanding at December 31, 2025159,948

The RSUs under the Plan will vest over afive-year period following the one-year anniversary of the date of grant.

The RSU granted under the plan on December 21, 2023, May 21, 2024, and June 25, 2024 vest as follows: (1)15% of the RSUs on the first anniversary of the grant date; (2)17.5% of the RSUs on the second anniversary of the grant date; (3)20% of the RSUs on the third anniversary of the grant date; (4)22.5% of the RSUs on the fourth anniversary of the grant date; and (5)25% of the RSUs on the fifth anniversary of the grant date.

The RSUs granted under the Plan on October 31, 2024 vest as follows: (1)25% of the RSUs on March 18, 2025; (2)25% of the RSUs on September 18, 2025; (3)25% of the RSUs on March 18, 2026; and (4)25% of the RSUs on September 18, 2026. The RSUs granted under the Plan on December 18, 2024 vested on December 26, 2025.

The RSUs granted under the Plan on February 7, 2025 vestone-third each year following the grant date.

The Company recognized stock-based compensation expenseof $1.7 million and $1.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 respectively, which is included within selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operationsand comprehensive income. The $0.7 million and $0.8 million compensation cost for RSU’s granted to FCG employees for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, are recognized as a reimbursement from FCG and do not impact the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, stock-based compens ation expense not yet recognized relating to nonvested awards was $5.8 million and $10.0 million, respectively, of which $2.3 million and $3.4 million relates to compensation cost for RSU’s granted to FCG employees, respectively. Stock compensation expense recognized by FCG is reimbursed to FBG.

Retirement plan

The Company sponsors the Falcon’s Beyond 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (“the 401(k) Plan”) that covers allqualifying employees over 21 years of age and who have completed 3-months of service. The 401(k) Plan allows participants to contribute up to 100% of their wages into the 401(k) Plan and allows for discretionary profit-sharing contributions from FBG. Participants vest at 20% per year over afive-year vesting period. Once a participant completes five years of service, all contributions are immediately vested.

Under the 401(k) Plan, eligible employees can also contribute a portion of their salary, and the Company will match up to 3% of those contributions. The Company’s obligation is limited to its contributions to the plan, and the retirement benefit is dependent on the performance of the investments chosen by the participants. The Company contributed $0.2 million and less than $0.1 million to the 401(k) Plan for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which is included as a component of Selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Management has reviewed all available evidence, both positive and negative, in determining the need for a valuation allowance with respect to the gross deferred tax assets. In determining the manner in which available evidence should be weighted, management believes that significant uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of the deferred tax assets and has therefore continued to maintain a full valuation allowance.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, the Company has foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $64.4 million and $1.1 million for tax purposes, which never expire if unused. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of $39.4 million, which also never expire if unused. The Company did not have any foreign tax credit carryforwards, net of valuation allowance.

The Company received a federal tax refund of $0.4 million and paid $0.1 million in income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

There wereno unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as additional income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by U.S. federal and certain state, local and foreign tax regulators. At December 31, 2025, U.S. federal tax returns related to Falcon’s Pubco and Opco entities for the years 2022 through 2024 are generally open under the normal statute of limitations and therefore subject to examination. State and local tax returns of our Falcon’s Pubco and Opco entities are generally open to audit for tax year 2022-2024. In addition, certain foreign subsidiaries’ tax returns from 2016 to 2024 are also open for examination by various regulators. The Company files its tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company does not believe the outcome of any future audit will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On July 4, 2025, H.R. 1, “An Act to provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14”, commonly referred to as the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” was enacted in the United States. The legislation includes several changes to federal tax law that generally allow for more favorable deductibility of certain business expenses, including the restoration of immediate expensing of domestic research and development expenditures, reinstatement of accelerated fixed asset depreciation and modifications to the international tax framework. We applied the relevant changes to the Company’s income tax provision for the period ended December 31, 2025, which did not materially impact the Company’s consolidated tax position.

Tax receivable agreement

On October 6, 2023, the partners of Falcon’s Opco at the time of the Acquisition Merger (“Exchange TRA Holders”), along with the Company (collectively the “TRA Holders”) entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA Agreement”) with Falcon’s Opco that provides for the payment by Falcon’s Opco to the TRA Holders of 85% of the amount of tax benefits, if any, that it realizes, or in some circumstances, is deemed to realize, as a result of (i) future redemptions funded by Falcon’s Opco or exchanges, or deemed exchanges in certain circumstances, of common units of Falcon’s Opco for the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 pershare (“Class A Common Stock”) or cash, and (ii) certain additional tax benefits attributable to payments made under the Tax Receivable Agreement (the “TRA Payment”). On October 24, 2024, the Company and Exchange TRA Holders entered into an Amendment to the Tax Receivable Agreement to clarify the rights of a TRA Holder that transfers units but does not assign the transferee its rights under the TRA Agreement with respect to such transferred units.

Segment information

The Company hadfour reportable operating segments, Falcon’s Creative Group, Destinations Operations, PDP and Falcon’s Beyond Brands for the year ended December 31, 2024. During May 2025, the Company acquired OES and integrated it into the new Falcon's Attractions segment. Therefore, as of December 31, 2025 the Company hasfive reportable operating segments. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Makers ("CODM") is its Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information for purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance, and allocating resources. Operating segments are organized based on product lines and, for our location-based entertainment, by geography. The CODM assesses the segments' performance by using each segments'income (loss) from operations, these results are used predominantly in the budgeting and forecasting process. The CODM considers segment results when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources. Segment income (loss) from operations include costs directly attributable to the segment including project design and build expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses, research and development expenses, and the share of gain from equity method investments, excluding impairments and gain from Tenerife Sale. Unallocated corporate expenses which include accounting, audit, and professional services fees that support external reporting activities, are presented as a reconciling item between total segment loss from operations and the Company’s consolidated financial statement results.

FCG provides creative and advisory services including destination strategy, master planning, experiential and attraction design, digital media, interactive software, IP development, and creative guardianship for entertainment and hospitality destinations. For the purpose of assessing financial performance and making resource allocation decisions, the CODM reviews full FCG results as if FCG was consolidated, instead of only the share of FCG's equity method gain. To reconcile total segment revenue to the Company's total consolidated revenue, FCG's segment revenue is eliminated. To reconcile Segment loss from operations to the Company's consolidated net income before taxes, FCG's Segment income from operations is eliminated and the Company's share of FCG's equity method loss is added.

PDP develops, owns and operates hotels, theme parks and retail, dining and entertainment venues. Destinations Operations provides development and management services for themed entertainment to PDP and develops, owns, operates, and expands entertainment venues, hospitality experiences, and branded destination concepts across a variety of location‑based formats, utilizing proprietary and third‑party intellectual property. The Company collectively refers to the Destinations Operations and PDP as Falcon’s Beyond Destinations.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

Board of Managers

Falcon's Creative Group, LLC:

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Falcon's Creative Group, LLC and its subsidiaries (the Company), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, and the related consolidated statement of operations, members’ (deficit) equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Responsibilities of Management for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the consolidated financial statements.

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audit.
