Current report
Effective September 26, 2025, we effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 10 shares of our issued and outstanding pre-Reverse Stock Split shares of common stock were combined into one share of our common stock. Stockholders who otherwise were entitled to receive fractional shares of our common stock received cash (without interest) in lieu of any fractional shares. In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, there was no change in the par value per share of common stock of $0.001. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, equitable adjustments corresponding to the Reverse Stock Split ratio were made to our outstanding warrants and our other convertible instruments and upon the exercise or vesting of all stock options such that every 10 shares of common stock that may be issued upon the exercise of our warrants and stock options and conversion of our other convertible instruments held immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split represent one share of our common stock that may be issued upon exercise of such warrants and stock options and conversion of the other convertible instruments immediately following the Reverse Stock Split. Correspondingly, the exercise price per share of our common stock attributable to our warrants and stock options and the conversion price of our other convertible instruments immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split was proportionately increased by a multiple of 10 following the Reverse Stock Split.

As reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, we have a history of losses and incurred a net loss of $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and cash used in operating activities of $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and had a working capital deficiency of $11.0 million as of June 30, 2025.

Our cash flows from operating activities are significantly affected by our cash-based investments in our operations, including acquiring live music events and festivals rights, our working capital, corporate infrastructure to support our ability to generate revenue and conduct operations through cost of services, product development, sales and marketing and general and administrative activities, and to further implement our crypto asset treasury strategy. Cash used in investing activities has historically been, and is expected to be, impacted significantly by our investments in business combinations, our platform, our infrastructure and equipment for our business offerings, and sale of our investments, and to further implement our crypto asset treasury strategy. We expect to make additional strategic acquisitions to further grow our business and continue to implement our crypto asset treasury strategy, which may require significant investments, capital raising and/or acquisition of additional debt in the near and long term. Over the next twelve to eighteen months, our net use of our working capital could be substantially higher or lower depending on the number and timing of new live festivals and paid users that we add to our businesses and capital resources needed to implement our crypto asset treasury strategy, including for the maximum announced amount.

Management plans to fund our operations over the next twelve months through the combination of improved operating results, spending rationalization, and the ability to access sources of capital such as through the issuance of our equity and/or debt securities. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us. We filed a new universal shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Shelf S-3”) with the SEC on February 4, 2025, which was declared effective by the SEC on February 17, 2025. Under the Shelf S-3, we will have the ability to raise up to $150.0 million in cash from the sale of our equity, debt and/or other financial instruments. In May 2024, we entered into an at-the-market agreement with Roth Capital Partners, LLC ("Roth"), pursuant to which we may, while the Shelf S-3 continues to be effective, offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $25 million from time to time through Roth acting as our sales agent. As of the filing of this Quarterly Report, we have not sold any shares under such at-the-market agreement.
