The software continuously scans the NASDAQ, New York Stock Exchange, CBOE, and other options markets, analyzing over 10,000 stocks and up to 1,500,000 options contracts multiple times per second. The Company also provides users with a fully interactive social media platform that is integrated into our dashboard, enabling users to exchange information and ideas quickly and efficiently through a common network. Recently, the Company also introduced a live audio/video feature that allows members to broadcast on their own channels to share trade strategies and market insight within the community. The platform was initially made available to subscribers in September 2016. Subscriptions for the use of the platform are sold on a monthly and/or annual subscription basis to individual consumers through the Company website at http://blackboxstocks.com.

On April 1, 2024, the Company formed Blackbox.io Inc., a Delaware corporation, and on April 18, 2024, the Company and Blackbox.io Inc entered into a contribution agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company transferred certain specified business assets (the “Contributed Assets”) to Blackbox.io Inc.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements (“financial statements”) have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Going Concern. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in assumption of the continuation of the Company as a going concern, which is dependent upon the Company's ability to obtain sufficient financing or establish itself as a profitable business. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred an operating loss of $4,028,290 and a net loss of $4,426,116. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company incurred an operating loss of $3,309,064 and a net loss of $3,471,227. Cash flows used in operations totaled $3,160,133 for the year ended December 31, 2025. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

On March 10, 2025, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with RABLBX Merger Sub Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and REalloys Inc., a Nevada corporation, as further described in Note 9. The Company believes that REalloys Inc. will be able to raise substantial capital and already has completed a financing that will provide $5,000,000 upon completion of the Merger. Closing of the Merger is subject to various customary closing conditions including but not limited to, approval of REalloys Inc. initial listing application by Nasdaq.

In addition, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Five Narrow Lane LP, on January 17, 2025 (which was later amended on January 27, 2025, pursuant to which the Company issued Five Narrow Lane LP debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $2,300,000 (the “Purchase Agreement”). $2,050,000 of the financing was received during the year ended December 31, 2025 and the balance was received in February of 2026.

The Company has historically been able to raise capital in order to fund its operations and on January 31, 2025, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-3 for the sale of up to $50,000,000 of securities. Pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, in no event will we sell securities in a primary offering with a value exceeding more than one-third of our public float in any 12-month period so long as our public float remains below $75,000,000. On July 1, 2025 the Company entered into an At-The-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “ATM Agreement”) with Alexander Capital, L.P. (“Alexander Capital”). Pursuant to the ATM Agreement, the Company may from time to time issue and sell to or through Alexander Capital, acting as the Company’s sales agent, shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), having an aggregate offering price of up to $5,795,000. Sales of the Shares, if any, will be made by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). As sales agent, Alexander Capital will offer the Shares at prevailing market prices and will use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its sales and trading practices, to sell on the Company’s behalf all of the Shares requested to be sold by the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the ATM Agreement. As of February 19, 2026, the Company has raised gross proceeds of $2,146,556 under the ATM Agreement from the sale of 254,695 shares of its common stock.

The financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in operation.

Principles of Consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Blackboxstocks Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary Blackbox.io Inc., a Delaware corporation. All intercompany transactions and account balances between the Company and its subsidiary have been eliminated in consolidation. Transactions with its consolidated subsidiary are generally settled in cash.

Use of Estimates. The Company’s financial statement preparation requires that management make estimates and assumptions which affect the reporting of assets and liabilities and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in order to report these financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Segments. The Company operates as asingle segment.

Cash. Cash includes all highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities at the date of purchase of three months or less.

The Company maintains its cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The FDIC provides coverage of up to $250,000 per depositor, per financial institution, for the aggregate total of depositors' interest and non-interest-bearing accounts. From time to time the Company's cash balance exceeded FDIC limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on these accounts and management does not believe that the Company is exposed to any significant risks.

Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable consists of invoiced and unpaid sales. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts to allow for any amounts that may not be recoverable, which is based on an analysis of the Company’s prior collection experience, customer credit worthiness, and current economic trends. Accounts are considered delinquent when payments have not been received within the agreed upon terms and are written off when management determines that collection is not probable.

Property and Equipment. The Company’s property and equipment is being depreciated on the straight-line basis over an estimated useful life ofthree years.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets. The Company evaluates long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. This includes but is not limited to significant adverse changes in business climate, market conditions or other events that indicate an asset's carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of each asset to the future cash flows the asset is expected to generate. If the cash flows used in the test for recoverability are less than the carrying amount of these assets, the carrying amount of such assets is reduced to fair value.

Income Taxes. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not.

Management evaluates the probability of the realization of its deferred income tax assets. Management determined that because the Company has not yet generated taxable income, it is unlikely that a tax benefit will be realized from these operating loss carry forwards. Accordingly, the deferred income tax asset is offset by a full valuation allowance.

In accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, the Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be capable of withstanding examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. These standards prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

Revenue Recognition. The Company operates under a software as a service (SaaS) model whereby we sell monthly and annual subscriptions allowing subscribers access to our platform. We recognize revenue over the subscription period (either monthly or annual) and record cash received but not yet earned as unearned subscriptions on our balance sheet in accordance with ASC 606.

Additionally, the Company receives revenue from the sale of education classes which are generally delivered as webinars. Revenues from these classes are recognized when the classes are held. The Company also receives revenues from commissions and the sale of promotional products which are presented as other revenues on the accompanying statements of operations. Commission revenues are recognized as they are earned and revenues from the sale of promotional products are recognized upon shipment.

Software Development Costs. The Company accounts for software development costs pursuant to ASC 985, Software, which requires that the costs incurred for planning, designing, coding and testing of software prior to technological feasibility be recorded as research and development expenses as incurred. Such costs include both internal development and engineering costs as well as development expenses contracted through third parties.

Advertising Expenses. The Company accounts for its advertising and marketing expenses in accordance with ASC 720-35-50 and expenses all costs as incurred including direct expenses of advertisement placement as well as the cost of producing or creating the advertisement.

Prepaid Expenses. Prepaid expenses are current assets created when the Company makes payments or incurs an obligation for expenses identified for a future period. These amounts are charged to expense as the services are provided.

Leases. The Company uses the right-of-use (“ROU”) model to account for leases where the Company is the lessee, which requires an entity to recognize a lease liability and ROU asset on the lease commencement date. A lease liability is measured equal to the present value of the remaining lease payments over the lease term and is discounted using the incremental borrowing rate, as the rate implicit in the Company's leases is not readily determinable. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis over a similar term, an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. Lease payments include payments made before the commencement date and any residual value guarantees, if applicable. When determining the lease term, the Company includes option periods that it is reasonably certain to exercise as failure to renew the lease would impose a significant economic detriment.

For operating leases, minimum lease payments or receipts, including minimum scheduled rent increases, are recognized as rent expense where the Company is a lessee on a straight-line basis (“Straight-Line Rent”) over the applicable lease terms. The excess of the Straight-Line Rent over the minimum rents paid is included in the ROU asset where the Company is a lessee. Short-term lease cost for operating leases includes rental expense for leases with a term of less than 12 months.

Stock-Based Compensation. The Company may issue stock options to employees and stock options or warrants to non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for other costs. The cost of stock options and warrants issued is measured on the grant date based on the fair value using the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein option pricing model. The resulting amount is charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive the benefit, which is generally the vesting period.

The Cox-Ross-Rubinstein option model requires management to make various estimates and assumptions, including expected term, expected volatility, risk-free rate, and dividend yield. The expected term represents the period of time that stock-based compensation awards granted are expected to be outstanding and is estimated based on considerations including the vesting period, contractual term and anticipated employee exercise patterns. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in relation to the contractual life of stock-based compensation instrument. The dividend yield assumption is based on historical patterns and future expectations for the Company dividends.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09 (“ASU 2023-09”), Income Taxes, which enhances the transparency of income tax disclosures by expanding annual disclosure requirements related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. Adoption did not have any impact on the Company’s disclosures.

In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-07 (“ASU 2023-07”), Segment Reporting, which improves reportable segment disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-07 primarily enhances disclosures about significant segment expenses by requiring that a public entity disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. This ASU also (i) requires that a public entity disclose, on an annual and interim basis, an amount for other segment items by reportable segment, and a description of its composition; (ii) requires that all annual disclosures are provided in the interim periods; (iii) clarifies that if the CODM uses more than one measure of profitability in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources, that one or more of those measures may be reported; (iv) requires disclosure of the title and position of the CODM and a description of how the reported measures are used by the CODM in assessing segment performance and in deciding how to allocate resources; (v) requires that an entity with a single segment provide all new required disclosures. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and requires retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments under ASU 2023-07 relate to financial disclosures and its adoption will not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Adoption did not have any impact on the Company’s disclosures.

Subsequent Events. The Company has evaluated all transactions through the date the financial statements were issued for subsequent event disclosure or adjustment consideration.

Earnings or (Loss) Per Share. Basic earnings per share (or loss per share), is computed by dividing the earnings (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of securities by including other potentially issuable shares of common stock, including shares issuable upon conversion of convertible securities or exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants, in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Therefore, because including shares issuable upon conversion of convertible securities and/or exercise of outstanding options and warrants would have an anti-dilutive effect on the loss per share, only the basic earnings (loss) per share is reported in the accompanying financial statements for period of loss.

The Company had total potential additional dilutive securities outstanding at December 31, 2025 and 2024, as follows.

Legal

From time to time in the normal course of business, the Company may be party to lawsuits or other claims. None such matters are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

10. Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740-10, which provides for an asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on anticipated future tax consequences, using currently enacted tax laws, attributed to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts are calculated for income tax purposes. The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, assumes a statutory 21%, effective tax rate for federal income taxes.

The Company had deferred income tax assets as of December 31, 2025, and 2024, as follows:

The Company provides for a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that it will not realize a portion of the deferred tax assets. The Company has established a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty that enough taxable income will be generated in those taxing jurisdictions to utilize the assets. Therefore, the Company has not reflected any benefit of such deferred tax assets in the accompanying financial statements. The Company’s net deferred tax asset and valuation allowance increased by $579,000 and $648,000 in the fiscal years ending December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

At December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $20,278,000 in federal net operating loss carryforwards, substantially all of which are allowed to be carried forward indefinitely and are to be limited to 80% of the taxable income. Pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 382, the future utilization of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards to offset future taxable income may be subject to an annual limitation as a result of ownership changes that may have occurred previously or that could occur in the future.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had no uncertain tax positions, or interest and penalties, that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. The company is subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income tax examinations by tax authorities. The tax return for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, has not yet been filed.
