KULR Technology Group, Inc.

NOTE 1** – ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION**

Organization and Operations

KULR Technology Group, Inc., through its wholly-owned subsidiary, KULR Technology Corporation (collectively referred to as “KULR” or the “Company”), develops and commercializes high-performance thermal management technologies for electronics, batteries, and other components across a range of applications. Currently, the Company is focused on targeting both high performance aerospace and Department of Defense (“DOD”) applications, such as space exploration, satellite communications, and underwater vehicles, and applying them to mass market commercial applications, such as lithium-ion battery energy storage, electric vehicles, fifth generation (“5G”) communication, cloud computer infrastructure, consumer and industrial devices. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company commenced digital asset mining operations.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company operates in a dynamic and highly competitive industry and believes that changes in any of the following areas could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future financial position, results of operations, or cash flows: ability to obtain future financing; advances and trends in new technologies and industry standards; regulatory approval and market acceptance of the Company’s products; development of sales channels; certain strategic relationships; litigation or claims against the Company based on intellectual property, patent, product, regulatory, or other factors; and the Company’s ability to attract and retain employees necessary to support its growth.

The “Tariff War”, especially with China, Canada and Mexico, could have an adverse effect on the Company’s supply chain potentially causing financial difficulty for the Company’s direct or indirect customers and reduced demand of the Company’s products. A continuation of these conflicts could have adverse changes in international trade policies and relations. Tariffs could increase the cost of the Company’s products and the components that go into making them. These increased costs could adversely impact the gross margin that the Company earns on its products. Tariffs could also make the Company’s products more expensive for customers, which could make the Company’s products less competitive and reduce consumer demand. Changing the Company’s operations in accordance with new or changed trade restrictions can be expensive, time-consuming and disruptive to the Company’s operations.

In addition, the Company has invested in Bitcoin, which is a digital asset. Digital assets are loosely regulated and there is no central marketplace for asset exchange. Supply is determined by a computer code, not by a central bank, and prices have been extremely volatile. Certain digital asset exchanges have been closed due to fraud, failure or security breaches. Any of the Company’s digital assets that reside on an exchange that shuts down may be lost. Several factors may affect the price of digital assets, including, but not limited to: supply and demand, investors’ expectations with respect to the rate of inflation, interest rates, currency exchange rates or future regulatory measures (if any) that restrict the trading of digital assets, and the use of digital assets as a form of payment. There is no assurance that digital assets will maintain their long-term value in terms of purchasing power in the future, or that acceptance of digital asset payments by mainstream retail merchants and commercial businesses will continue to grow.

As digital assets have grown in popularity and market size, various countries and jurisdictions have begun to develop regulations governing the digital asset industry. To the extent future regulatory actions or policies limit the ability to exchange digital assets or utilize them for payments, the demand for digital assets could be reduced. Furthermore, regulatory actions may limit the ability of end-users to convert digital assets into fiat currency (e.g., U.S. dollars) or use digital assets to pay for goods and services. Such regulatory actions or policies could result in a reduction of demand, and in turn, a decline in the underlying digital asset unit prices.

The effect of any future regulatory change on digital assets in general is impossible to predict, but such change could be substantial and adverse to the Company and the value of the Company’s investments in digital assets.

Digital assets are not insured or protected under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or the Securities Investor Protection Company (“SIPC”). Accordingly, with respect to its Bitcoin investment, the Company does not enjoy the same protection as other assets covered by the FDIC or SIPC.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2025, and for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ending December 31, 2025, or any other period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and related disclosures as of December 31, 2024 and for the year then ended, which were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on Form 10-K on March 31, 2025. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, has been derived from the audited financial statements included in the Form 10-K.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Since the date of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies, except as disclosed in this note.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, together with amounts disclosed in the related notes to the financial statements. The Company’s significant estimates used in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, fair value calculations for intangible assets, equity securities, stock-based compensation and the valuation allowance related to the Company’s deferred tax assets. Certain of the Company’s estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company and general economic conditions. It is possible that these external factors could have an effect on the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consisted primarily of cash, digital assets and accounts receivable. The Company’s concentrations of credit risk also include concentrations from key customers and vendors.

Cash Concentrations

A significant portion of the Company’s cash is held at one major financial institution. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Cash held in US bank institutions is currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 at each institution. There were uninsured balances of $23,949,297 and $29,331,858 as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Customer and Revenue Concentrations

The Company had certain customers whose revenue individually represented 10% or more of the Company’s total revenue, or whose accounts receivable balances individually represented 10% or more of the Company’s total accounts receivable, as follows:

There is no assurance the Company will continue to receive significant revenue from any of these customers. Any reduction or delay in operating activity from any of the Company’s significant customers, or a delay or default in payment by any significant customer, or termination of agreements with significant customers, could materially harm the Company’s business and prospects. As a result of the Company’s significant customer concentrations, its gross profit and results from operations could fluctuate significantly due to changes in political, environmental, or economic conditions, or the loss of, reduction of business from, or less favorable terms with any of the Company’s significant customers.

Custody of Digital Assets

The Company currently holds and intends to continue to hold all of its digital assets in a custodial account at a U.S. based, institutional-grade custodian (who may hold the Company’s digital assets in the United States or other territories) that has demonstrated records of regulatory compliance and information security. The custodian may also serve as a liquidity provider.

If the Company’s custodially-held digital assets were considered to be the property of the custodian’s estates in the event that the custodian were to enter bankruptcy, receivership or similar insolvency proceedings, the Company could be treated as a general unsecured creditor of the custodian, inhibiting the Company’s ability to exercise ownership rights with respect to such digital assets and this may ultimately result in the loss of the value related to some or all of such digital assets.

Additionally, the digital assets the Company holds with our custodian and transact with our trade execution partners does not enjoy the same protections as are available to cash or securities deposited with or transacted by institutions subject to regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation.

Vendor Concentrations

The Company had vendors whose purchases of inventory individually represented 10% or more of the Company’s total purchases of inventory, as follows:

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are carried at their contractual amounts, less an estimate for credit losses. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, no allowances for credit losses were determined to be necessary. Management estimates the allowance for credit losses based on existing economic conditions, the financial conditions of the customers, and the amount and age of past due accounts. Receivables are considered past due if full payment is not received by the contractual due date. Past due accounts are generally written off against the allowance for bad debts only after all collection attempts have been exhausted.

Digital Assets

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-08, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets (“ASU 2023-08”), which provides an update to existing digital asset guidance and requires an entity to measure certain digital assets at fair value. In addition, this guidance requires disclosures related to digital assets once it is adopted. As of January 1, 2024, the Company has adopted ASU 2023-08.

The Company reflects digital assets held at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of cash flows, the activity from the remeasurement of digital assets at fair value on the consolidated statements of operations, and the required expanded disclosures in Note 3, Digital Assets. There was no cumulative effect adjustment to the Company’s retained earnings balance as a result of the adoption of ASU 2023-08.

Digital assets are generally valued using prices as reported on reputable and liquid exchanges and may involve using an average of bid and ask quotes using closing prices provided by such exchanges as of the date and time of determination. Since the digital assets are traded on a 24-hour period, the Company uses the price at 4:00pm Eastern Standard Time (“EST”) to value its digital assets.

Mining of Digital Assets

The Company leased digital asset mining equipment, which provides hashrates to a mining pool operator. The Company derives a portion of its revenue from its digital asset mining activities by providing hashrates as part of transaction verification services within the digital currency networks of cryptocurrencies, such as bitcoin, commonly termed “cryptocurrency mining.” In consideration for these services, the Company receives digital awards which are recorded as revenue, based on the daily amount of bitcoin earned. The Company’s digital assets are recorded on the balance sheet at their fair value according to the Company’s accounting practices for digital assets. Unrealized gains or losses on the remeasurement of digital assets mined are recorded in the statement of operations. Lease costs associated with the digital asset mining operation are recorded as cost of revenue.

Inventory

The Company capitalizes inventory costs associated with products when future commercialization is considered probable, and a future economic benefit is expected to be realized. These costs consist of finished goods, raw materials, manufacturing-related costs, transportation and freight, and other indirect overhead costs.

Inventory is comprised of carbon fiber velvet thermal interface solutions and internal short circuit batteries, which are available for sale, as well as raw materials and work in process related primarily to the manufacture of safe cases. Safe cases provide a safe and cost-effective solution to commercially store and transport lithium batteries and mitigate the impacts of cell-to-cell thermal runway propagation. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. The cost of inventory that is sold to third parties is included within cost of sales and the cost of inventory that is given as samples is included within operating expenses. The Company periodically reviews for slow-moving, excess or obsolete inventories. Products that are determined to be obsolete, if any, are written down to net realizable value. On occasion, the Company pays for inventory prior to receiving the goods. These payments are recorded as inventory deposits until the goods are received and these costs are included in the current asset section of the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Inventory at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was comprised of the following:

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, inventory deposits were $787,626 and $0, respectively, which consists of inventory purchases of goods that were paid for but not received as of period end.

Finished goods inventory is held on-site at the San Diego, California and Webster, Texas locations. Certain raw materials are held off-site with certain contract manufacturers.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

ASC 820 defines fair value 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. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable (for example, cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets, such as cash, accounts receivable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, notes payable and Prepaid Advance Liability approximate fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The carrying amount of the Company’s digital assets are recorded at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), based on quoted prices on the active exchange(s) that the Company has determined is the principal market for such assets (Level I inputs). The cost basis of digital assets is determined using the specific identification of each unit received. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are now recorded to other (expense) income, net in our consolidated statement of operations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). The core principle of ASC 606 requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process, including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation.

The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:

For sales contracts with terms of more than one year, the Company recognizes any significant financing component as revenue over the contractual period using the effective interest method, and the associated interest income is reflected accordingly on the consolidated statements of operations and included in other income.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized revenue primarily from the following different types of contracts:

The following table summarizes the Company’s revenue recognized in its condensed consolidated statements of operations:

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and deferred revenues (contract liabilities) on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Generally, billing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. However, we sometimes receive advances or deposits from our customers resulting in contract liabilities. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had billed accounts receivable of $4,346,111 and unbilled accounts receivable of $196,695. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had billed accounts receivable of $3,431,007 and unbilled accounts receivable of $660,672. Deferred revenues were $21,141 and $32,768 as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common-equivalent shares outstanding during each period.

The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted net loss per common share:

The following shares were excluded from the calculation of weighted average dilutive common shares because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

Reclassifications

Certain prior period balances have been reclassified in order to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported results of operations or loss per share.

Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date on which these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Based upon the evaluation, the Company did not identify any recognized or non-recognized subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements, except as disclosed in Note 12 – Subsequent Events.

Segment Reporting

Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by management in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Management has determined that the Company hastwo significant operating segments: Energy Management Platform and Mining of Digital Assets, as discussed more fully in Note 11. In determining the appropriateness of segment definition, the Company considers the criteria of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, Segment Reporting.

Recent Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments in this update address investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. This update also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023 – 09 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. Since this new ASU addresses only disclosures, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have any material impact on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company is currently evaluating any new disclosures that may be required upon adoption of ASU 2023–09.

NOTE 3 – DIGITAL ASSETS

The Company’s digital assets are comprised solely of Bitcoin. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, the Company measures the fair value of its Bitcoin based on the quoted price at 4:00pm EST on the measurement date for a single Bitcoin on an active trading platform, Coinbase. Management has determined that Coinbase, an active exchange market, represents a principal market for Bitcoin and at 4:00pm EST, the price is both readily available and representative of fair value (Level 1 inputs). The following table sets forth the units held, cost basis, and fair value of Bitcoin held, as shown on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 and as of December 31, 2024.

During the first three months of March 31, 2025, the Company purchased 449.45 Bitcoin at an average cost of $99,008 per Bitcoin, inclusive of fees and expenses, for an aggregate cost of $44,499,352. Additionally, on March 7, 2025, the Company entered into asixty-day lease agreement (the “Machine Lease Agreement”) with a digital asset mining services company to operate digital assets mining machines on KULR’s behalf, at a total lease cost of $850,000. As of March 31, 2025,2.97 Bitcoin have been earned pursuant to the Machine Lease Agreement, at an average value of $84,186 per Bitcoin. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recognized revenue of $249,754, and recognized a loss of $90,237, in connection with its digital assets mining operations.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the fair values of the Company’s Bitcoin as of March 31, 2025:

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company entered into certain contractual arrangements for services in exchange for a fixed number of shares of common stock of the Company. The estimated fair value of the shares to be issued was an aggregate of $90,329 based on the quoted market prices of the shares as of the respective contract dates.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company settled certain of its accrued issuable equity obligations through the issuance of an aggregate of 50,000 of its shares of common stock with an aggregate fair value of $69,500, remeasured as of the date of settlement based on the quoted market prices of the shares.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded gains (losses) in the aggregate amount of $260,598 and $(13,002), respectively, related to changes in the fair value of accrued issuable equity (see Note 9 – Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit),Stock-Based Compensation for additional details). The fair value of the accrued but unissued shares as of March 31, 2025, was $180,658, based on Level 1 inputs, which consist of quoted prices for the Company’s common stock in active markets.

NOTE 7 – LEASES

On January 31, 2024, the initial lease for Webster, Texas dated January 18, 2023, expired. On January 27, 2024, the Company entered into a new lease agreement for new office space in Webster, Texas. The initial lease term is 63 months. The lease contains an option to renew for an additional 36 months, which is not reasonably certain to be exercised and therefore is not included in the measurement of the operating lease ROU asset and related lease liability. Monthly rental payments under the new lease are $33,818, which is comprised of $22,682 of base rent and $11,136 of common area maintenance fees.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the weighted average grant date fair value per share of options was $1.06 and $0.14, respectively. The Company has computed the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. In applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model, the Company used the following range of assumptions:

Option forfeitures are accounted for at the time of occurrence. The expected term used is the estimated period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company utilizes the “simplified” method to develop an estimate of the expected term of employee option grants. The Company utilizes an expected volatility figure based on the historical volatility of its common stock over a period of time equivalent to the expected term of the instrument being valued. The risk-free interest rate was determined from the implied yields from U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with a remaining term consistent with the expected term of the instrument being valued.
