LQR House Inc.

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

LQR House Inc. (“LQR” or the “Company”) was incorporated on January 11, 2021, in the state of Delaware. On February 3, 2023, the Company changed its state of incorporation to the State of Nevada by merging into LQR House Inc., a Nevada corporation. The Company operates primarily in the beverage alcohol industry, owning specialty brands, providing marketing and distribution services.

Country Wine & Spirits (“CWS”) Platform

On November 1, 2023, LQR House Acquisition Corp. (the “Buyer”), a subsidiary of the Company, and SSquared Spirits LLC (the “Seller”) entered into a Domain Name Transfer Agreement (“Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Seller irrevocably sold, assigned, transferred, and conveyed to the Buyer (a) all right, title, and interest in and to the domain name www.cwspirits.com (the “Domain Name”, or “CWS Platform”), including its current registration and (b) any other rights (including, but not limited to, trademark rights associated with the Domain Name in any jurisdiction, all Internet traffic through the Domain Name and all Website Content (as defined in the Agreement) the Seller may have in the Domain Name, together with any goodwill associated therewith in exchange for the payment by the Buyer of the purchase price of $10,000. See Note 4.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Sean Dollinger, owns 50% of the equity of the Seller, and the other 50% is owned by a minority shareholder of the Company, who is considered a related party. A Special Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors consisting of all independent directors approved the terms of the Agreement on November 1, 2023. See Note 9.

Reverse Stock Split

On April 16, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Change to its Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to effect a 1-for-35 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Split”) of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. The Reverse Split became effective on April 21, 2025. In connection with Reverse Split, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to reduce the number of authorized shares of common stock to 10,000,000. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts for all periods presented in the accompanying financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted retroactively, where applicable, to reflect the reverse stock split

Amendment to Articles of Incorporation

On June 2, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 10,000,000 to 350,000,000 shares, par value $0.0001 per share. The increase was approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting held on May 30, 2025.

2. GOING CONCERN

The Company has not generated profits since inception and has sustained net losses of $4,592,032 and $4,636,685 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company also incurred negative cash flows from operations for the same periods. The Company expects to continue to generate operating losses for the foreseeable future. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments as a result of this uncertainty.

Through the date the financial statements were available to be issued, the Company has been primarily financed through the issuance of capital stock. In the event that the Company cannot generate sufficient revenue to sustain its operations, the Company will need to reduce expenses, or obtain financing through the sale of debt and/or equity securities, which it has done. The issuance of additional equity would result in dilution to existing shareholders. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funds when they are needed or if such funds cannot be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company, the Company would be unable to execute upon the business plan or pay costs and expenses as they are incurred, which would have a material, adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations. While the Company has several potential sources of cash including the ability to initiate an at-the-market (“ATM”) offering under its current shelf registration statement, no assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.

Management’s Plans

In January, 2025, the Company raised $4,051,415 through exercise of warrants, which were converted into shares of common stock.

As of August 12, 2025, the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4,566,936 as of June 30, 2025. In addition, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $26,000,000 from its ATM offering in July 2025. Management believes these funds will be sufficient to meet the Company’s operating and capital expenditure requirements for at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these financial statements.

Throughout the next twelve months, the Company intends to fund its operations from the funds raised through the July 2025 offering. To further support its operations and growth, the Company may also pursue additional capital through public or private equity offerings, debt financing, or other strategic funding sources, including continued use of ATM equity offerings.

Based on the current state of operations, the July 2025 ATM offering, the additional capital sources available to the Company, and the cash on hand at August 12, 2025, the Company believes that the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has been alleviated. Management believes that the Company has sufficient capital to meet its financial obligations for the next 12 months as of the date of these financial statements.

There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms upon which such financing and capital might be available in the future. If the Company is unable to secure additional funding, it may be forced to curtail or suspend its business plans.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.

The Company is an emerging growth company as the term is used in The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act and has elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements, however, the Company may adopt accounting standards based on the effective dates for public entities when early adoption is permitted.

Principles of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, LQR House Acquisition Corp. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information, within the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented and of the financial condition as of the date of the interim balance sheet. The financial data and the other information disclosed in these notes to the interim financial statements related to the six-month periods are unaudited. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year.

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024 included in the Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these financial statements include, but are not limited to the cost method investments and stock-based compensation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates when there are changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash with a major financial institution located in the United States of America which it believes to be credit worthy. Balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. At times, the Company maintains balances in excess of the federally insured limits.

Concentrations

The Company’s ability to derive revenue is reliant on its relationship with KBROS, LLC (“KBROS”) who currently handles product for the CWS Platform and fulfills the products sold by clientele using our marketing services. The discontinuance of such relationship or termination of the CWS Platform agreements would have a material negative impact on the Company’s operations.

Furthermore, the Company relies and expects to continue to rely on a small number of vendors. The loss of one of these vendors may have a negative short-term impact on the Company’s operations. However, the Company believes there are acceptable substitute vendors that can be utilized longer term.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Investment at cost

In accordance with FASB ASC Subtopic 321-10-35-2,Investments – Others – Cost Method Investments, investments where the Company does not have a significant influence are accounted for at cost. The Company reviews all material investments on an annual basis to determine whether a significant event or change in circumstances has occurred that may have an adverse effect on the fair value of the investment. In the event the fair value of the investment declines below the cost basis, the Company records an impairment.

As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s investment in DRNK Beverage Corp continues to be recorded at its impaired carrying value of $300,000, after reflecting an impairment expense of $4,500,000 recognized as of December 31, 2024. That impairment was triggered by company-specific information and the investee’s performance relative to expectations, as well as general market challenges and reduced prospects for recovery of the carrying value of the investment. No additional impairments were identified during the six months ended June 30, 2025. The Company continues to monitor the situation and will assess the need for any further adjustments in future periods.

Fair Value Measurements

Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are carried at fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:

There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 fair value classifications during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

The carrying values of the Company’s accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short maturity of these instruments.

The Company’s investments are accounted at cost, less impairment. See above and Note 5 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are derived from services and products delivered to customers and are stated at their net realizable value. Each month, the Company reviews its receivables on a customer-by-customer basis and evaluates whether an allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary based on any known or perceived collection issues. Any balances that are eventually deemed uncollectible are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are amortized over the respective estimated lives on a straight-line basis, unless the lives are determined to be indefinite and reviewed for impairment whenever events or other changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company owns domain names indefinitely. Costs to renew domains are expensed as incurred.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

Related Parties

Related parties are any entities or individuals that, through employment, ownership or other means, possess the ability to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the Company. The Company discloses related party transactions that are outside of normal compensatory agreements, such as salaries. The Company follows ASC 850,Related Party Disclosures, for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.

Revenue Recognition

In accordance with FASB ASC 606,Revenue from Contracts with Customers¸ the Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

Revenue is recognized when performance obligations are satisfied through the transfer of control of promised goods to the Company’s customers in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring goods or services to customers. Control transfers once a customer has the ability to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the benefits from, the product. This includes the transfer of legal title, physical possession, the risks and rewards of ownership, and customer acceptance.

The Company derives its revenue from marketing services, sales via the CWS Platform, distribution of its SWOL Tequila product and subscription-based membership revenue. Revenue is reported net of discounts.

Marketing Services

The Company contracts with third-party alcoholic beverage brands to utilize access to the CWS Platform. The Company and the brands enter into a commercial relationship. The Company performs services such as creating a marketing campaign strategy, developing promotional materials and advertising promotional materials through the CWS Platform. Revenue is recognized over a period time, as the marketing services are being continually provided on a daily and monthly basis over the life of an agreed upon campaign. Marketing campaigns generally range from one to three months.

CWS Platform

Cwsspirits.com is an e-commerce platform that sells wine and spirits. The Company is responsible for contracting with CWS and customers to fulfill orders through the website. The Company, though not legally able to own alcohol inventory, does take on financial inventory risk. The Company is solely responsible for any risk of loss of the end customer and paying to replenish the loss order. Additionally, the Company enters into minimum guaranteed purchase commitments with its vendor that require the Company to pay for shortfalls in minimum purchases. The Company establishes the price and selection of products to be sold on the CWS Platform, and directs all marketing activities pertaining to the Platform. As such, the Company is the primary obligor for transactions with customers on the CWS Platform and records gross revenue. Revenue is recognized at the point in time when products are delivered to the end customer, when LQR has fulfilled its performance obligation, net of returns.

Product Sales

The Company wholly owns SWOL Tequila, a tequila produced in limited batches by a third-party manufacturer in Mexico. The Company handles all logistics to deliver the product to CWS for retail distribution in the United States, including advancing production, shipping, and other import-related expenses. Under historical agreements, the Company is entitled to receive payment for these costs, plus an additional fixed premium for each bottle of SWOL Tequila sold via wholesale channels. Revenue is recognized when the product is delivered, fulfilling the Company’s performance obligation. Due to regulatory restrictions surrounding the delivery and custodianship of alcoholic beverages, CWS assumes ownership at the time of delivery, with no recourse or right of return.

Vault

Vault is the exclusive membership program for CWS Platform customers. Through the CWS Platform, users can sign up for membership where they will have access to all products available through the CWS combined with special membership benefits including discounted products, free shipping and promotional offers. Prior to the acquisition of the CWS Platform, the Company marketed this membership program on the CWS Platform and was entitled to 50% of the revenue from the subscriptions as the agent of the transaction. Upon the acquisition of the CWS Platform, the Company records gross revenue as it is the principal in the transaction. The Company records a reserve for chargebacks and cancellations at the time of the transaction based on historical experience.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The following is a summary of the disaggregation of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consists of all direct costs attributable to sales and performing marketing services. Cost of revenue includes product costs, packaging, shipping and other importing and delivery charges, as well as contracted marketing services. Cost of revenue also includes customer service personnel.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing costs primarily consist of advertising, promotional expenses and marketing consulting and advisory services. Sales and marketing costs also include sales commissions. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, advertising costs totaled $80,676 and $487,529, respectively, compared to $764,807 and $1,551,222 for the same period in 2024.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 718-10,Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718-10”). The Company measures all equity-based awards granted to employees, independent contractors and advisors based on the fair value on the date of the grant and recognizes compensation expense for those awards over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award.

The Company classifies equity-based compensation expense in its statement of operations in the same manner in which the award recipient’s payroll or contractor costs are classified or in which the award recipient’s service payments are classified.

Segment Information

In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), we identify our operating segments according to how our business activities are managed and evaluated. ASC 280 establishes standards for companies to report financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

The CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only hasone operating and reportable segment.

The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by our CODM are revenue and operating costs. These metrics are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash. The CODM also reviews operating costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget.

Net Loss per Share

Net earnings or loss per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding shares subject to redemption or forfeiture. The Company presents basic and diluted net earnings or loss per share. Diluted net earnings or loss per share reflect the actual weighted average of common shares issued and outstanding during the period, adjusted for potentially dilutive securities outstanding. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of the diluted net loss per share if their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for each year. Potentially dilutive items outstanding as of June 30, 2025 include the Company’s outstanding restricted stock units (See Note 8).

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, the Company will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

4. ACQUISITION OF CWS PLATFORM

On November 1, 2023, LQR House Acquisition Corp. (the “Buyer”), a subsidiary of the Company, and SSquared Spirits LLC (the “Seller”, “SSquared”) entered into a Domain Name Transfer Agreement (“Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Seller irrevocably sold, assigned, transferred, and conveyed to the Buyer (a) all right, title, and interest in and to the domain name www.cwspirits.com (the “Domain Name”, “CWS Platform”), including its current registration and (b) any other rights (including, but not limited to, trademark rights associated with the Domain Name in any jurisdiction, all Internet traffic through the Domain Name and all Website Content (as defined in the Agreement) the Seller may have in the Domain Name, together with any goodwill associated therewith in exchange for the payment by the Buyer of the purchase price of $10,000.

In connection with the Company’s purchase of the Domain Name, on November 1, 2023, the Company entered into a product handling agreement (“Product Handling Agreement”) with KBROS LLC (“KBROS”). Pursuant to the Product Handling Agreement:

Commencing as of the Effective Date of this Agreement, Product Handler shall provide to the Company the following services relating to the purchase and delivery (“Handling”) of spirits and other beverage products (referred to herein as “Product” and the “Products”) purchased by customers of the Company through or in relation to websites associated with the Domain:

Under Regulation S-X 3-05, management determined that the CWS Platform acquisition constituted a business combination as the revenue producing activity (e-commerce sales) was expected to be similar both pre and post-domain name acquisition. As such, the Company recorded an intangible asset of $10,000 for the purchase price consideration of the domain name.

Management assessed the fair value of the Domain Name and CWS Platform in determining to allocate the $10,000 to the domain name. In making such determination, management considered the related party nature of the transaction, the current environment for direct-to-consumer alcoholic beverage companies and the related competition in which they operate, and the fact that the initial and continued operation of the CWS platform is completely dependent on the relationship between the Company, our CEO and a minority shareholder, who co-owned SSquared and operates KBROS, LLC (“KBROS”, or “Product Handler”), the Company’s contracted product handler. Without such relationship, which can be terminated in certain circumstances, the underlying CWS Platform would be unable to operate as intended until a suitable alterative product handler would be identified. Therefore, no fair value in excess of the consideration provided was considered.

The Company has consolidated the results of operations of the CWS Platform since November 1, 2023.

5. INVESTMENTS, AT COST

The Company’s investments at cost includes a minority stake in the common shares of Cannon Estate Winery Ltd and DRNK Beverage Corp. These investments are primarily held for strategic purposes.

Cannon Estate Winery Ltd.

Pursuant to the Cannon Agreement, the Seller transferred and delivered to the Company 113,085 of the common shares of Cannon (the “Cannon Shares”), and in exchange the Company issued and delivered to the Seller 750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The Company recorded an investment of $817,500, which is the fair value of the 750,000 shares issued to Cannon at a fair value per share of $1.09 on May 19, 2024. The Company accounted for the investment in Cannon under the cost method as it owns 9.99% of Cannon’s common shares and does not exert significant influence.

Chase Mocktails Ltd (f/k/a DRNK Beverage Corp.)

On June 7, 2024, the Company consummated an acquisition of approximately 8.58% of common shares of DRNK Beverage Corp. (“DRNK”) pursuant to a Subscription Agreement (“DRNK Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company subscribed for and purchased from DRNK 1,920,000 common shares of DRNK at a price of $2.50 per share for an aggregate amount of $4,800,000. Upon the closing of the DRNK Agreement, the Company reclassified $4,800,000 which was held as a deposit in escrow to investments on the consolidated balance sheet.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company recognized an impairment expense of $4,500,000 related to its investment in DRNK based on impairment indicators on DRNK’s financial performance and DRNK’s progress as compared to initial expectations. In determining the impairment, management used a market approach using projected revenue information obtained from DRNK and market multiples for companies in similar industry segments.

As of June 30, 2025, the investment continues to be carried at its impaired value of $300,000. No further impairment indicators or observable price changes were identified during the six-month period ended June 30, 2025. The Company continues to monitor this investment and will assess the need for any future adjustments as conditions warrant.

6. PREPAID JOINT VENTURE AGREEMENTS

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had recorded $8,166,988 in prepaid joint venture agreements related to payments made in anticipation of entering into joint venture agreements.

Under the proposed agreements, the Company’s newly formed subsidiary, YHC Online Ltd., has signed a Multi-Channel Network (MCN) agency services contracts to develop, manage, and monetize creator-led content on the TikTok platform.

The Company expects that in addition to direct monetization through TikTok, the collaboration will enable broader cross-platform campaign execution across TikTok, Meta, and Google to create a foundation for a vertically integrated digital marketing operation that will support the Company's future growth initiatives.

As of June 30, 2025, the agreements had not been finalized. Accordingly, the Company classified these amounts as prepaid joint venture agreements on the consolidated balance sheet. Management expects these agreements to be executed and operationalized in subsequent periods, at which time the prepayments will be reclassified to the appropriate investment and accounted for in accordance with ASC 323.

7. ACCRUED EXPENSES

Accrued expenses consist of the following:

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had accrued expenses totaling $6,484,729 related to various settlement, bonus, and retention agreements executed between October and December 2024.

Restricted Stock Units

In August 2023, the Company granted 893 restricted stock units (the Director RSU’s) on post-split basis, which were to vest in eight equal quarterly installments commencing on October 1, 2023. On August 30, 2023, the Board authorized deferring the vesting of the Director RSUs until such date that the 2021 Plan is amended.
