Current report

These factors may result in volatility in the Company’s financial results.

Current report

Risks Related to the Use of Artificial Intelligence

Current report

The Company will likely need to raise funding to pay the post-closing obligations associated with the MeridianBet Purchase Agreement, the terms of which may not be favorable, may necessitate the payment of interest which otherwise would not need to be paid, and may cause dilution.

Current report

As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding consideration payable to the Meridian Sellers was $16,199,672.

Current report

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, we sold an aggregate of 204,285 shares of our common stock under the ATM Program for net proceeds of approximately $2,960,897, after deducting commissions.

Current report

As of the date of this Report, we are eligible to sell up to an additional $16.9 million under the Distribution Agreement, subject to the terms thereof and subject to the limitations of Form S-3, which prohibit us, for so long as our non-affiliate market capitalization remains below $75 million, from selling securities valued at more than one-third of our non-affiliate float every 12 months.

Current report

Separately, in October 2023, Israel and certain Iranian-backed Palestinian forces began an armed conflict in Israel, the Gaza Strip, and surrounding areas, which has since expanded into broader regional hostilities involving Iran and other actors. Tensions between the United States and Iran have also escalated significantly since 2025, including military strikes by the United States and its allies against Iranian targets, retaliatory actions by Iranian-aligned forces, disruptions to regional security, and additional economic sanctions and trade restrictions targeting Iran and entities involved in Iran’s energy, military, and financial networks. These developments have increased geopolitical instability in the Middle East and have contributed to volatility in global energy markets and international shipping routes.

Current report

We are subject to competitive pressures arising from competition in online betting and iGaming, as well as from prediction markets, illegal operators and new entrants into the markets in which we operate.

Current report

We operate in a highly competitive and rapidly evolving global online betting and iGaming industry, and we expect competitive pressures to intensify in the future. Our competitors include large international operators, well-established local providers and new entrants offering adjacent or alternative wagering products. Many of these competitors operate at greater scale, benefit from stronger brand recognition and may devote more resources to product development, marketing, pricing strategies and promotional activity, which may enable them to develop more commercially successful offerings. In addition, barriers to customers switching between operators are relatively low, increasing the likelihood that customers may choose competing platforms.

Current report

We also compete with companies utilizing emerging business models, including prediction markets and other derivatives-based products. As a result, such providers may compete with us more effectively due to differences in regulatory requirements, cost structures or operating models. Additionally, in certain jurisdictions, we also compete with illegal operators that do not comply with licensing, regulatory, tax or consumer protection requirements, enabling them to avoid associated costs and restrictions. In addition, consolidation within the betting and gaming industry could create larger competitors with greater financial, technical and operational resources, potentially resulting in a loss of market share that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current report

The Company is subject to risks associated with doing business outside of the United States, including exposure to complex foreign and U.S. regulations such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”), notwithstanding any current or future changes in enforcement priorities, as well as anti-corruption, anti-bribery, sanctions, export control, financial crime, and related laws and regulations of the jurisdictions in which we operate or conduct business. These jurisdictions may include, among others, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Cyprus, Malta, Belgium, Tanzania, Peru, Mexico, Brazil, South Africa, Great Britain, Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom. These laws generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments or providing other things of value to government officials or private parties for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business or securing an improper advantage, and may also impose restrictions on trade with certain countries, entities or individuals, as well as requirements relating to export licensing, economic sanctions, financial transparency and anti-money laundering.

Current report

Risks Related to the Use of Artificial Intelligence

Current report

The Company’s use of artificial intelligence technologies exposes it to a variety of risks that could adversely affect its business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Current report

The Company relies on AI systems to provide personalized recommendations to users based on historical activity and behavioral data. These systems depend on the quality, completeness, and representativeness of underlying data. If such data is inaccurate, incomplete, or biased, the resulting outputs may be unreliable or ineffective, which could negatively impact user experience and engagement.

Current report

AI models may fail to perform as intended due to design limitations, changes in user behavior, or evolving data patterns. Any such underperformance or failure could reduce the effectiveness of the Company’s recommendation systems and adversely affect customer retention and revenue.

Current report

Although the Company’s current AI systems are limited to recommendation functionality and do not utilize generative AI, there remains a risk that outputs may be irrelevant, inappropriate, or inconsistent with user expectations. The Company may not be able to detect or remediate such issues in a timely manner.

Current report

The Company’s use of AI technologies also introduces cybersecurity and data protection risks. AI systems process large volumes of data and may be targeted by malicious actors seeking to exploit vulnerabilities, access sensitive data, or disrupt operations. A failure to adequately secure these systems could result in data breaches, regulatory penalties, and reputational harm.

Current report

Regulatory frameworks governing artificial intelligence, automated decision-making, and data usage are rapidly evolving. The Company may be required to modify its AI systems, limit their use, or incur additional compliance costs in response to new or changing laws and regulations. Failure to comply with such requirements could result in legal or financial penalties.

Current report

In addition, the Company faces competitive risks related to AI. Competitors may develop more advanced or effective AI capabilities, which could reduce the relative attractiveness of the Company’s products and services.

Current report

The Company’s AI systems are built in part using third-party and open-source technologies. Any defects, vulnerabilities, or licensing issues associated with such components could adversely impact the Company’s operations.

Current report

Any of the foregoing risks, individually or in the aggregate, could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Current report

On December 31, 2025, we received written notice (the “Notification Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying us that we were not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share, and Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet the minimum bid price requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of thirty (30) consecutive business days. Based on the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the thirty-four (34) consecutive business days from November 11, 2025 to December 30, 2025, the Company no longer met the minimum bid price requirement. The Notification Letter stated that the Company had 180 calendar days or until June 30, 2026, to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). To regain compliance, the bid price of the Company’s common stock had to have a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. On March 17, 2026, following the Reverse Split, our common stock regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550, and we are no longer out of compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing rules.

Current report

Companies that have enacted a reverse stock split to meet Nasdaq’s continued listing rules are not eligible to conduct another reverse stock split to comply with Nasdaq’s continued listing rules for a period of one year (as such, we cannot affect another reverse stock split to comply with Nasdaq’s continued listing rules until after March 3, 2027), and pursuant to Nasdaq’s listing rules, the cumulative ratio of any future reverse stock split we affect in the two years following our prior reverse split, in order to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements cannot exceed 1:250, and as a result, we will be prohibited from affecting a reverse stock split of greater than 1:20.83 between March 4, 2027 and March 3, 2028, in order to regain compliance with any Nasdaq continued listing requirement.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Previous report

The Company will likely need to raise funding to pay the post-closing obligations associated with the Meridian Purchase Agreement, the terms of which may not be favorable, may necessitate the payment of interest which otherwise would not need to be paid, and may cause dilution.

Previous report

The consideration payable to the Meridian Sellers includes cash and stock which will come due in the future. The unpaid portion of the purchase price currently includes: (i) $19,870,460 in cash, of which $9,870,460 is due 12 months after the date of the Closing (April 9, 2025); and $10,000,000 is due 18 months after the date of the Closing (October 9, 2025); and (ii) promissory notes in the amount of $15,000,000, due 24 months after the Closing (April 9, 2026).

Previous report

No shares have been sold under the Distribution Agreement to date.

Previous report

Our Secured** **Convertible Note with the Investor is secured by a Security Agreement over substantially all of our assets and a pledge of the securities of certain of our subsidiaries.

Previous report

In connection with the issuance of the Secured Convertible Note, the Company entered into a Security Agreement with the Investor dated July 2, 2024, whereby the Company granted a security interest in, and pledges and assigns to the Investor over, all personal and fixture property of every kind and nature and all proceeds and products thereof of the Company, subject to the liens held by Unicredit Bank Serbia JSC Belgrade, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the obligations of the Company to the Investor.

Previous report

In addition, on July 2, 2024, we and the Investor entered into a Pledge Agreement pursuant to which the Company pledged to the Investor all of the Company’s rights, title and interest in and to all stock and other equity interests the Company owns in RKings Competitions Ltd. and GMG Assets Limited, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, to secure the repayment of the Note.

Previous report

After such time as the principal amount of the Secured Convertible Note is $6,000,000 or less and, so long as no event of default has occurred and is continuing, at the request of the Company, the Investor agreed to release its lien on its collateral under the Security Agreement and Pledge Agreement.

Previous report

As a result of the above, the Investor, in the event of the occurrence of a default under the Secured Convertible Note may enforce its security interests over our assets and/or our subsidiaries which secure such obligations, may take control of our assets and operations, and/or force us to curtail or abandon certain of our current business plans and operations. If that were to happen, any investment in the Company (including, but not limited to any investment in our common stock) could lose value.

Previous report

Because we have a limited operating history our future operations may not result in profitable operations.

Previous report

Net income attributable to the Company decreased by $15,182,787, or 111%, to a net loss of $ $1,480,249 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, from net income of $13,702,538 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. Additionally, we don’t have a significant operating history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will prove successful, and we may not be able to maintain profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will most likely fail. Although we have generated net income in previous years, we have not generated net income in our most recent year, and we may not generate profitable operations in the future to ensure our continued growth.

Previous report

We are required to make amortization payments of the amounts owed under the Secured Convertible Note upon the occurrence of certain events and we may not have sufficient cash to make such payments, if required.

Previous report

Commencing September 20, 2024, we were required to begin paying the outstanding principal amount of the Note in 20 consecutive monthly payments of $600,000 each (all of which payments to date have been timely made), provided that between payment dates, the Investor (Lind Global Asset Management VIII LLC) may increase the Repayment Amount, to up to $1,000,000 by providing written notice to the Company with such payment to be due and payable within two days of the receipt of such notice, for up to two monthly payments while the Secured Convertible Note is outstanding. At the option of the Company, the monthly payment can be made in cash, shares of the common stock of the Company at a price based on 90% of the average five (5) lowest daily volume weighted average prices during the twenty (20) days prior to the payment date subject to a floor price of $1.75 per share, or a combination of cash and Repayment Shares, provided that if at the time the Repayment Share Price is deemed to be the Floor Price, then in addition to the Repayment Shares, the Company will pay the Investor an added amount of cash as determined pursuant to a formula contained in the Secured Convertible Note. In order for the Company to issue any Repayment Shares, the Repayment Shares must either be eligible for immediate resale under Rule 144 or be registered under the Securities Act. Any portion of a monthly payment being made in cash shall include a premium of five percent (5%) of such cash amount. As of December 31, 2024, the principal balance of the Secured Convertible Note was $9,600,000.

Previous report

We may not have cash available to pay the required Repayment Amounts and the payment of the Repayment Amounts in shares of common stock may cause significant dilution to existing shareholders.

Previous report

We face significant penalties if we fail to keep effective the required registration statement to register the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Senior Secured Note and warrants.

Previous report

The Company agreed to file a registration statement (with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than sixty (60) days from July 1, 2024, covering the resale of all of the shares of common stock of the Company issuable to the Investor pursuant to the Secured Convertible Note and the Lind Warrant, which was timely filed and became effective on September 20, 2024. The Investor was also granted piggyback registration rights. Events of default include, but are not limited to, a payment default on any other indebtedness in excess of $500,000; failure to observe or perform any other covenant, condition or agreement contained in the Secured Convertible Note or any transaction documents; failure of the Company to instruct its transfer agent to issue unlegended share certificates; the Company’s shares are no longer publicly-traded or cease to be listed; if after six months, the shares are not available for immediate resale under Rule 144; and at any time after March 3, 2025, the Company’s market capitalization is below $250 million for ten consecutive days. Upon an event of default, subject to any applicable cure periods, the holder may demand that all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount be converted into shares of common stock of the Company at the lower of the conversion price and 80% of the average of the three lowest daily VWAPs during the 20 days prior to the delivery of the conversion notice, subject to the Floor Price, provided that if at the time of such demand the conversion price is deemed to be the Floor Price, then in addition, to the shares of common stock of the Company at the Floor Price, the Company will pay the holder an additional amount of cash as determined pursuant to a formula contained in the Secured Convertible Note. Upon the occurrence of an event of default as described in the Secured Convertible Note and subject to certain cure rights set forth therein, the holder may at any time at its option declare the Secured Convertible Note immediately due and payable, together with an additional 20% of the outstanding principal amount thereof.

Previous report

The failure to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement could require us to pay significant penalties to the Investor and/or could reduce the conversion price of the Secured Convertible Note.

Previous report

We believe that we have sufficient cash on hand, and the ability to raise additional funding, or borrow additional funding, as needed, to support our operations for the foreseeable future, except that we anticipate the need to raise capital to repay the $9,600,000 outstanding under the Secured Convertible Note as of December 31, 2024, the $20.2 million owed under the Facility Agreement as of December 31, 2024, and to pay certain post-closing amounts due in connection with the acquisition of the MeridianBet Group, as discussed in greater detail below under “The Company will likely need to raise funding to pay the post-closing obligations associated with the Meridian Purchase Agreement, the terms of which may not be favorable, may necessitate the payment of interest which otherwise would not need to be paid, and may cause dilution”; however, we will continue to evaluate our business operations based on new information as it becomes available and will make changes that we consider necessary in light of any new developments regarding pandemics and epidemics and its effect on the economy.

Previous report

The Company’s planned Player2P gaming product is currently on hold and we may never move forward with such gaming product.

Previous report

The Company has developed its own proprietary Peer-to-Peer E-sports gaming product. However, the launch of the Peer-to-Peer gaming product is currently on hold until further notice, so that the Company can focus on other projects. This product, if released, will be marketed as the Player2P Platform (“Player2P”). The Player2P brand, if released, will be focused solely on esports gambling and 18+ gaming (i.e., gaming by those 18 years of age and older). In the event we decide to move forward with the launch of Player2P, we may not receive regulatory approvals, we may be unable to launch Player2P in the U.S. or other jurisdictions, or such launch might be impractical, which would ultimately cause such product not to be successful. In the event we choose not to launch Player2P, the funds used by the Company to develop such game may be lost, which may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and/or prospects, and ultimately the value of our securities.

Previous report

A significant amount of our revenues come from a limited number of customers for the resale of our gaming content, and if we were to lose any of those customers, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

Previous report

At the present time, we are dependent on a limited number of customers for the resale of our gaming content. The Company’s major revenues of reselling for the year ended December 31, 2024, were from four customers. As a result, in the event such customers do not pay us amounts owed, terminate work in progress, or we are unable to find new customers moving forward, it could have a materially adverse effect on our results of operations and could force us to curtail or abandon our current business operations.

Previous report

The issuance of common stock upon conversion of our outstanding Series B Preferred Stockand Series C Preferred Stockwill cause immediate and substantial dilution to existing shareholders and the sale of common stock upon conversion of our outstanding Series B Preferred Stockand Series C Preferred Stockmay depress the market price of our common stock.

Previous report

As of the date of this Report, we had 1,000 outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, all of which were held by Anthony Brian Goodman, the Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Company and 1,000 outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, each held by the Meridian Sellers. Each holder of Series B Preferred Stock may, at its option, convert each of its shares of Series B Preferred Stock into 1,000 shares of common stock, or 1,000,000 shares of common stock in aggregate. Each holder of Series C Preferred Stock may, at its option, convert each of its shares of Series C Preferred Stock into 1,000 shares of common stock, or 1,000,000 shares of common stock in aggregate. The conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock into common stock of the Company will cause significant dilution to the then holders of our common stock.

Previous report

Commencing on September 20, 2024, the Company was required to begin paying the outstanding principal amount of the Secured Convertible Note in 20 consecutive monthly payments of $600,000 each, provided that between payment dates, the Investor may increase the Repayment Amount, to up to $1,000,000 by providing written notice to the Company with such payment to be due and payable within two days of the receipt of such notice, for up to two monthly payments while the Note is outstanding.

Previous report

At the option of the Company, the monthly payment can be made in cash, shares of the common stock of the Company at a price based on 90% of the average five (5) lowest daily volume weighted average prices during the twenty (20) days prior to the payment date subject to a floor price of $1.75 per share, or a combination of cash and Repayment Shares, provided that if at the time the Repayment Share Price is deemed to be the Floor Price, then in addition to the Repayment Shares, the Company will pay the Investor an added amount of cash as determined pursuant to a formula contained in the Secured Convertible Note. In order for the Company to issue any Repayment Shares, the Repayment Shares must either be eligible for immediate resale under Rule 144 or be registered under the Securities Act. Any portion of a monthly payment being made in cash shall include a premium of five percent (5%) of such cash amount. The conversion price of the Note is $4.00, a 150% premium over the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date the Meridian Purchase Agreement was entered into, subject to customary adjustments, however, if new securities, other than exempted securities, are issued by the Company at a price less than the conversion price, the conversion price shall be reduced to such price, subject to the Floor Price.

Previous report

As of December 31, 2024, the principal balance of the Secured Convertible Note was $9,600,000.

Previous report

We are subject to various restrictions while the Secured Convertible Note remains outstanding which may have an adverse effect on our ability to raise capital and undertake certain transactions.

Previous report

While the Secured Convertible Note is outstanding, if the Company issues any indebtedness, or issues any preferred stock that is redeemable or contains any mandatory redemption rights, other than Exempted Securities (discussed below), unless otherwise waived in writing by and at the discretion of the Investor, the Company is required to immediately utilize the proceeds of such issuance to repay the Secured Convertible Note.

Previous report

Additionally, until such time as the Secured Convertible Note has a balance of $2 million or less, we are prohibited from: entering into a transaction with a third party or third parties in which we issue or sell (or arrange or agree to issue or sell): (a) any debt, equity or equity-linked securities (including options or warrants) that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive shares of the Company’s capital stock: (i) at a conversion, repayment, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is based on, and/or varies with, a discount to the future trading prices of, or quotations for, shares of common stock; or (ii) at a conversion, repayment, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt, equity or equity-linked security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events (other than warrants that may be repriced by the Company); or (b) any securities in a capital or debt raising transaction or series of related transactions which grant to an investor the right to receive additional securities based upon future transactions of the Company on terms more favorable than those granted to such investor in such first transaction or series of related transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, rights issuances, shareholder purchase plans, equity plans, convertible securities, or issuances of equity interests each at a fixed price per share, and/or with a fixed conversion or exercise price per share, are allowed. Also notwithstanding the above, if the Company’s common stock is trading at a price per share equal to or less than the conversion price of the Secured Convertible Note (currently $4.00), up to $20 million of shares of common stock issued pursuant to an at-the-market (ATM) offering is allowed and, if the common stock is trading at a price per share greater than the conversion price, shares of common stock issued pursuant to an ATM offering, is allowed.

Previous report

“Exempted Securities” means (a) shares of common stock or preferred shares or rights, warrants or options to purchase common stock or preferred shares issued as consideration for certain acquisitions, (b) equity securities issued by reason of a dividend, stock split, split-up or other distribution on shares of common stock, (c) shares of common stock or rights, warrants or options to purchase common stock issued to employees, directors or consultants of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to a plan, agreement or arrangement approved by the Board of Directors, (d) shares of common stock actually issued upon the exercise of options, warrants or shares of common stock actually issued upon the conversion or exchange of any securities convertible into common stock, in each case issued to employees or directors of, the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to an equity plan and provided that such issuance is pursuant to the terms of the applicable option, warrant or convertible security, (e) shares of common stock issued upon the exercise or exchange of or conversion of any securities issued and outstanding on the date of the Secured Convertible Note, provided that such securities have not been amended since such date; (f) shares issued to the Meridian Sellers; (g) shares issued pursuant to the SPA; (h) shares issuable pursuant to the ATM carveouts discussed above; and (j) up to 300,000 shares of common stock issued for investor relations services as long as the shares are issued as restricted securities.

Previous report

The above restrictions may make it harder or more expensive for us to raise capital, may prevent us from raising capital, may force us to pay the amount of any capital raised to the Investor to repay amounts owed under the Secured Convertible Note and/or may have an adverse effect on our ability to undertake certain transactions or prevent us from undertaking such transactions. The result of the above may be an adverse effect on our operations, cash flows and the value of our securities.

Previous report

Our common stock has in the past been a “penny stock” under SEC rules, and may be subject to the “penny stock” rules in the future. It may be more difficult to resell securities classified as “penny stock.”

Previous report

In the past (including immediately prior to our common stock being listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market), our common stock was a “penny stock” under applicable SEC rules (generally defined as non-exchange traded stock with a per-share price below $5.00). While our common stock is not now considered a “penny stock” because it is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market, if we are unable to maintain that listing, unless we maintain a per-share price above $5.00, our common stock will become a “penny stock.” These rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that recommend the purchase or sale of penny stocks to persons other than those who qualify as “established customers” or “accredited investors.” For example, broker-dealers must determine the appropriateness for non-qualifying persons of investments in penny stocks. Broker-dealers must also provide, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, disclose the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, furnish monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account, provide a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser, and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction.

Previous report

Legal remedies available to an investor in “penny stocks” may include the following:

Previous report

These requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the market price and liquidity of our securities. These requirements may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and may affect your ability to resell our common stock.

Previous report

Many brokerage firms will discourage or refrain from recommending investments in penny stocks. Most institutional investors will not invest in penny stocks. In addition, many individual investors will not invest in penny stocks due, among other reasons, to the increased financial risk generally associated with these investments.

Previous report

For these reasons, penny stocks may have a limited market and, consequently, limited liquidity. We can give no assurance at what time, if ever, our common stock will not be classified as a “penny stock” in the future

Risks Related to the Company’s Need for Additional Funding and Financial Agreements

Previous wording

We had $30,125,944 cash on hand and a working capital deficit of $18,484,062 as of December 31, 2024. With our current cash on hand, expected revenues, and based on our current average monthly expenses, we do not anticipate the need for additional funding in order to continue our operations at their current levels, and to pay the costs associated with being a public company, for the next 12 months, but may require additional funding in the future to support our operations and/or may seek to raise additional funding in the future to expand or complete acquisitions. We also anticipate needing to raise funding to repay the $9,600,000 outstanding under the Secured Convertible Note as of December 31, 2024, the $20.2 million owed under the Facility Agreement as of December 31, 2024, and to pay certain post-closing amounts due in connection with the acquisition of the MeridianBet Group, as discussed in greater detail below under “The Company will likely need to raise funding to pay the post-closing obligations associated with the Meridian Purchase Agreement, the terms of which may not be favorable, may necessitate the payment of interest which otherwise would not need to be paid, and may cause dilution”.

We also anticipate needing to raise funding to repay the $13 million owed under the Facility Agreement as of December 31, 2025, and to pay certain post-closing amounts due in connection with the acquisition of the MeridianBet Group, as discussed in greater detail below under “The Company will likely need to raise funding to pay the post-closing obligations associated with the MeridianBet Purchase Agreement, the terms of which may not be favorable, may necessitate the payment of interest which otherwise would not need to be paid, and may cause dilution”.

Previous wording

The most likely source of future funds presently available to us will be through the sale of equity capital, including, potentially through sales under the Distribution Agreement. Any sale of share capital will result in dilution to existing shareholders. Furthermore, we may incur debt in the future, and may not have sufficient funds to repay our future indebtedness or may default on our future debts, jeopardizing our business viability.

In February 2022, an armed conflict escalated between Russia and Ukraine. The sanctions announced by the United States and other countries against Russia and Belarus following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine to date include restrictions on selling or importing goods, services, or technology in or from affected regions and travel bans and asset freezes impacting connected individuals and political, military, business, and financial organizations in Russia and Belarus. The United States and other countries could impose wider sanctions and take other actions should the conflict further escalate. Separately, in October 2023, Israel and certain Iranian-backed Palestinian forces began an armed conflict in Israel, the Gaza Strip, and surrounding areas. Although the Company does not currently, and does not plan to, do business in Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, or Israel, it is not possible to predict the broader consequences of these ongoing conflicts, which could include further sanctions, embargoes, regional instability, and geopolitical shifts.

Any determination that the Company has violated any anti-corruption laws could have a material adverse impact on our businesses. Changes in trade sanctions laws may restrict their business practices, including cessation of business activities in sanctioned countries or with sanctioned entities.

Further, our competitors have been granted patents protecting various gaming products and solutions features, including systems, methods, and designs. If our products and solutions employ these processes, or other subject matter that is claimed under our competitors’ patents, or if other companies obtain patents claiming subject matter that we use, those companies may bring infringement actions against us. The question of whether a product infringes a patent involves complex legal and factual issues, the determination of which is often uncertain. In addition, because patent applications can take many years to issue, there may be applications now pending of which we are unaware, which might later result in issued patents that our products and solutions may infringe. There can be no assurance that our products, including those with currently pending patent applications, will not be determined to have infringed upon an existing third-party patent. If any of our products and solutions infringes a valid patent, we may be required to discontinue offering certain products or systems, pay damages, purchase a license to use the intellectual property in question from its owner, or redesign the product in question to avoid infringement. A license may not be available or may require us to pay substantial royalties, which could in turn force us to attempt to redesign the infringing product or to develop alternative technologies at a considerable expense. Additionally, we may not be successful in any attempt to redesign the infringing product or to develop alternative technologies, which could force us to withdraw our product or services from the market.

As a result of the number of authorized but unissued shares of our common stock and preferred stock, our Board of Directors has the ability to issue a large number of additional shares of common stock without shareholder approval, which if issued could cause substantial dilution to our then shareholders. Additionally, shares of preferred stock may be issued by our Board of Directors without shareholder approval with voting powers, and such preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and powers as determined by our Board of Directors, which may be greater than the shares of common stock currently outstanding. As a result, shares of preferred stock may be issued by our Board of Directors which cause the holders to have super-majority voting power over our shares (similar to our outstanding Series B Voting Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, which each provide the holders thereof the right to vote 7,500 voting shares on all shareholder matters, for each share of preferred stock held), provide the holders of the preferred stock the right to convert the shares of preferred stock they hold into shares of our common stock, which may cause substantial dilution to our then common stock shareholders and/or have other rights and preferences greater than those of our common shareholders. Investors should keep in mind that the Board of Directors has the authority to issue additional shares of common stock and preferred stock, which could cause substantial dilution to our existing shareholders. Additionally, the dilutive effect of any preferred stock, which we may issue may be exacerbated given the fact that such preferred stock may have super-majority voting rights (similar to our outstanding Series B Voting Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, discussed below) and/or other rights or preferences which could provide the preferred shareholders with voting control over us subsequent to such offering and/or give those holders the power to prevent or cause a change in control. As a result, the issuance of shares of common stock and/or preferred stock may cause the value of our securities to decrease and/or become worthless.

The Lind Warrant entitles the holder to purchase up to 750,000 shares of common stock of the Company until July 1, 2029, at an exercise price of $4.00 per Warrant Share, subject to customary adjustments. In addition, the exercise price is subject to adjustment in the event of the issuance of new securities, other than certain Executive Securities (defined below), at an effective price less than the exercise price, which results in the exercise price being reduced to an exercise price equal to the consideration per share deemed to have been paid for such new securities, subject to a minimum exercise price of $2.25. The Lind Warrant also provides for cashless exercise to the extent that the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise thereof are not covered by an effective registration statement or upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Lind Warrant) and automatic exercise rights upon expiration of the Lind Warrant, to the extent that the VWAP of the Company’s common stock on the day immediately preceding the expiration date is more than the exercise price, and the shares issuable upon exercise thereof are not then covered by an effective registration statement. The Lind Warrant is also subject to a similar Maximum Percentage limitation as set forth in the Secured Convertible Note.

On July 2, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Lind Global Asset Management VIII LLC, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investor a secured, two-year, interest free convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $12,000,000 (the “Secured Convertible Note”), which has since been repaid in full and a common stock purchase warrant (the “Lind Warrant”) to acquire 62,500 shares of common stock of the Company, at an exercise price of $48.00 per share, subject to customary adjustments. The Lind Warrant expires on July 2, 2029. In addition, the exercise price is subject to adjustment in the event of the issuance of new securities, other than certain excepted securities, at an effective price less than the exercise price, which results in the exercise price being reduced to an exercise price equal to the consideration per share deemed to have been paid for such new securities, subject to a minimum exercise price of $27. The Lind Warrant also provides for cashless exercise to the extent that the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise thereof are not covered by an effective registration statement or upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Lind Warrant) and automatic exercise rights upon expiration of the Lind Warrant, to the extent that the volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company’s common stock on the day immediately preceding the expiration date is more than the exercise price, and the shares issuable upon exercise thereof are not then covered by an effective registration statement. The Lind Warrant is also subject to a similar Maximum Percentage limitation as set forth in the Secured Convertible Note.

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “GMGI.” Our stock price may be impacted by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. The stock markets in general have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. Additionally, general economic, political and market conditions, such as recessions, inflation, war, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Due to the limited volume of our shares which trade, we believe that our stock prices (bid, ask and closing prices) may not be related to our actual value, and not reflect the actual value of our common stock. You should exercise caution before making an investment in us.

The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the Secured Convertible Note and exercise of the Lind Warrants will result in immediate and substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders since the holders of the Secured Convertible Note and the Lind Warrants may ultimately receive and sell the full amount of shares issuable in connection with the conversion of such Secured Convertible Note and exercise of the Lind Warrants. Although the Secured Convertible Note and Lind Warrant may not be converted/exercised by the holder thereof if such conversion would cause such holder to own more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock (which may be increased to 9.99% as set forth in the Secured Convertible Note and the Lind Warrant), these restrictions do not prevent such holder from converting/exercising some of their holdings, selling those shares, and then converting/exercising the rest of their holdings, while still staying below the 4.99% limit. In this way, the holder could sell more than these limits while never actually holding more shares than the limits allow. If the holder of the Secured Convertible Note chooses to do this, it will cause substantial dilution to the then holders of our common stock.

Although the Company does not currently, and does not plan to, do business in Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Israel, or Iran, it is not possible to predict the broader consequences of these ongoing conflicts and geopolitical tensions, which could include further sanctions, embargoes, regional instability, disruptions to global trade and energy markets, and broader geopolitical shifts. It is also not possible to predict with certainty the duration or ultimate outcome of these conflicts or their potential effects on global economic conditions, consumer spending habits, currency exchange rates, supply chains, financial markets, or regulatory environments, any of which could adversely impact the business, financial condition, and results of operations of the Company.

We need to continue to meet the continued listing standards of The Nasdaq Capital Market. Among the conditions required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, Nasdaq generally requires listed companies to maintain at least $2.5 million in shareholders’ equity or $500,000 in net income over the prior two years or two of the prior three years, to have a majority of independent directors, have an audit committee of at least three members, and to maintain a stock price over $1.00 per share, among other requirements. Provided that, if our common stock price closes at less than $0.10 per share for ten consecutive trading days, Nasdaq will issue an immediate delisting determination. Additionally, Nasdaq has proposed to amend its continued listing rules to require listed companies to maintain a minimum market value of listed securities of $5 million.

On July 2, 2024, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Lind Global Asset Management VIII LLC, a Delaware limited partnership, pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investor a secured, two-year, interest free convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $12,000,000.

Additionally, if conversions of our outstanding Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock and sales of such converted shares take place, the price of our common stock may decline. In addition, the common stock issuable upon conversion of our outstanding Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of the company’s stock will decrease, and any additional shares which shareholders attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb converted shares sold by the holder of the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease.
