Currenc Group Inc

Currenc Group Inc. (the “Company”) is a limited liability company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on March 8, 2021. It is an investment holding company headquartered in Singapore.

The Company was originally a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company named INFINT Acquisition Corporation (“INFINT”) formed for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, entering into contractual arrangements with, or engaging in any other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

Initial Public Offering

On November 23, 2021, INFINT consummated its initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) of 17,391,200 units (each a “Unit”) at a price of $10.00 per Unit and the sale of 7,032,580 private placement warrants (the “Private Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Warrant in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) to the Sponsor that closed simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering. On November 23, 2021, the Underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full, according to which INFINT consummated the sale of an additional 2,608,680 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, and the sale of an additional 764,262 Private Warrants, at $1.00 per Private Warrant. Following the closing of the over-allotment option, INFINT generated total gross proceeds of $207,795,642 from the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, of which INFINT raised $199,998,800 in the Initial Public Offering, $7,796,842 in the Private Placement and of which $202,998,782 was placed in INFINT’s Trust Account with Continental Stock Transfer & Company as trustee, established for the benefit of INFINT’s public shareholders. The Underwriters received a cash underwriting discount of (i) one and one-quarter percent (1.25%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $2,499,985, and (ii) one half of a percent (0.5%) in the form of representative shares (69,999 INFINT Class B ordinary shares to EF Hutton and 30,000 INFINT Class B ordinary shares to JonesTrading). In addition, the Underwriters were entitled to a deferred fee of three percent (3.00%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $5,999,964, upon the closing of the Business Combination, pursuant to the underwriting agreement dated November 18, 2021 (the “Underwriting Agreement”). The deferred fee was partially paid in cash from the amounts held in the Trust Account and partially settled through a promissory note issued upon the closing of the Business Combination.

Business Combination

On August 30, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), INFINT, INFINT Fintech Merger Sub Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of INFINT (“Merger Sub”), and Seamless Group Inc., a limited liability company under the laws of the Cayman Islands (along with its wholly owned subsidiaries, “Seamless”), consummated a business combination pursuant to the business combination agreement, dated as of August 3, 2022, as amended (the “Business Combination Agreement”).

On the Closing Date, INFINT completed a series of transactions (the “Closing”) that resulted in the combination (the “Business Combination”) of INFINT with Seamless. On August 30, 2024, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Merger Sub merged with and into Seamless, with Seamless surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of INFINT, and INFINT changed its name to Currenc Group Inc. (“Currenc”). The Company’s ordinary shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “CURR”.

As consideration for the Business Combination, Currenc issued to Seamless shareholders an aggregate of 40,000,000 ordinary shares (the “Exchange Consideration”). In addition, Currenc issued 400,000 commitment shares to the PIPE investor (as described below) and an aggregate of 200,000 shares to vendors in connection with the Closing, issued promissory notes for approximately $5.7 million to EF Hutton LLC (“EF Hutton”), approximately $3.2 million to Greenberg Traurig LLP (“Greenberg Traurig”), and $603,623 to INFINT Capital LLC (the “Sponsor”), and entered into a $1.75 million PIPE Offering, as set forth below.

Simultaneous with the closing of the Business Combination, Currenc also completed a series of private financings, issuing a Convertible Note for $1.94 million,400,000 commitment shares, and warrants to purchase 136,110 ordinary shares in a private placement to a PIPE investor (the “PIPE Offering”), which raised $1.75 million in net proceeds.

The Company’s principal subsidiaries at September 30, 2024 are set out below:

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2024 and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary in order to make the consolidated financial statements not misleading have been included. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and accordingly do not include all of the disclosures normally made in the Company’s annual financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Seamless for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Pursuant to ASC 805-40,Reverse Acquisitions, for financial accounting and reporting purposes, Seamless was deemed the accounting acquirer with INFINT being treated as the accounting acquiree, and the Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization (the “Reverse Recapitalization”). Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company represent a continuation of the financial statements of Seamless, with the Business Combination being treated as the equivalent of Seamless issuing stock for the net assets of INFINT, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net liabilities of INFINT were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, and were consolidated with Seamless’ financial statements on the Closing Date. The number of Seamless common shares for all periods prior to the Closing Date have been retrospectively adjusted using the exchange ratio that was established in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement, after adjusting for the share repurchase disclosed in Note 3 (the “Exchange Ratio”).

Retroactive Application of Reverse Recapitalization to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Deficit

Pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, as part of the Closing, all of the issued and outstanding Seamless common shares were all converted into 40,000,000 ordinary shares of Currenc at an Exchange Ratio of 0.650635750 (after adjusting for the share repurchase).

Retroactive Application of Reverse Recapitalization to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss

Furthermore, based on the retroactive application of the reverse recapitalization to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Deficit, Seamless recalculated the weighted-average shares for the pre-Business Combination portion of the periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The basic and diluted weighted-average Seamless common shares were retroactively converted to Currenc ordinary shares using the Exchange Ratio to conform to the recast periods (see Note 2 (j),Net income (loss) per share, for additional information).

Retroactive Application of Reverse Recapitalization to the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets

Finally, to conform to the retroactive application of recapitalization to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Deficit, the Company reclassified the par value of Seamless common shares to additional paid-in capital (“APIC”), less amounts attributable to the par value of the ordinary shares as recast, as of December 31, 2023.

Further details of the Reverse Recapitalization are contained in Note 3,Reverse Recapitalization and Related Transactions.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash balances of $49.1 million, a working capital deficit of $54.1 million and net capital deficit $22.7 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had a net loss of $11.3 million and net cash used in operating activities of $11.7 million. Net cash used in investing activities was $0.4 million. Net cash generated from financing activities was $2.2 million, resulting principally from proceeds of borrowings.

While the Company believes that it will be able to continue to grow the Company’s revenue base and control expenditures, there is no assurance that it will be able to achieve these goals. As a result, the Company continually monitors its capital structure and operating plans and evaluates various potential funding alternatives that may be needed to finance the Company’s business development activities, general and administrative expenses and growth strategy.

The preparation of the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Certain accounting estimates of the Company require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application. These include valuation of goodwill, provision for credit losses, impairment of long-lived assets, impairment of equity investee, valuation of convertible bonds and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and such differences may be material.

The Company complies with ASC 606,Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Revenue from contracts with customers is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer net of sales and service tax, returns, rebates and discounts. The Company recognizes revenue when (or as) it transfers control over a product or service to its customer. An asset is transferred when (or as) the customer obtains control of the asset. Depending on the substance of the contract, revenue is recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied, which may be at a point in time or over time.

Contract assets represent the Company’s right to consideration for performance obligations that have been fulfilled but for which the customer has not been billed as of the balance sheet date.

Remittance services revenue

Revenue from contracts with customers on service charges and gain/loss on foreign exchange arising from remittance activities are recognized upon the processing and execution of the international money transfer transactions. Remittance services are further divided into Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Service and XRP Prefunded Remittance Service. Management has considered these two services to be two product lines.

The customers of the remittance services are financial institutions (referred to as “Remittance Partners”). Remittance Partners who use the fiat currency prefunding option for their remittance business with the Company are referred to as Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Partners, whereas customers who choose the XRP Prefunding mode are referred to as XRP Prefunded Remittance Partners.

Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Service

The Company earns revenue by charging their customers a Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Fee when they use the Company’s platform to transfer money to a beneficiary in another country. These Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Fees are fixed and specific for every country’s currency and are charged at the point-in-time of executing this performance obligation. Prior to delivering cash to the customer’s beneficiary, the customer must directly provide the Company with prefunding (i.e., the cash to be remitted to the beneficiary). This is the traditional prefunding process, which the Company describes as Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Service.

XRP Prefunded Remittance Service

Unlike the Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Service, the customer obtains prefunding through Ripple Solution offered by Ripple Lab Inc. (see Note 9) with the XRP Prefunded Remittance Service. Ripple supplies the customer with the XRP equivalent of the requested prefunding. The Company subsequently liquidates this XRP on Ripple’s behalf, and the fiat currency obtained as a result of the liquidation process is transferred to the customer’s beneficiary. Customers who prefund their remittance service with XRP must enter into an agreement with Ripple and undergo stringent credit checks in order to get XRP prefunding and use Ripple’s platform. The Company charges their customers an XRP Prefunded Remittance Service Fee when the money is transferred to the customer’s beneficiary.

For both the XRP Prefunded and Fiat Currency Prefunded Remittance Services, the Company has no obligations to the customer in terms of guarantees, warranties or other similar obligations. There are also no significant payment terms involved as the Company obtains their fees shortly after charging their customers.

Sales Walletku Modern Channel

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized at the point in time when the Company satisfies their performance obligation, which is upon delivery of the goods to the customer. The credit terms are typically 3-7 days.

Sales of airtime

Revenue from airtime sold is recognized when the relevant international airtime transfer or reload request is processed and executed.

Other services

Revenue from contracts with customers on other services is recognized as and when services are rendered.

As the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) of the Company, the Chief Executive Officer reviews the financial results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing the performance of the Company. TNG (Asia) Limited (“TNGA”), the Tranglo Sdn BHD and related subsidiaries (“Tranglo”), GEA Limited and GEA Pte Ltd. (“GEA”) and PT Walletku Indompet Indonesia (“Walletku”) are all considered operating segments. These have been aggregated into two reportable segments, which are remittance services and sales of airtime, as described in Note 7. Other services are not assigned to a specific reportable segment as their results of operations are immaterial.

The remittance segment is operated through TNGA, GEA and Tranglo. TNGA and GEA are in the retail remittance business in Hong Kong, which is in the upstream segment of the remittance business, whereas Tranglo operates the remittance hub covering Southeast Asia and globally, and is thus in the downstream segment of the remittance business. Management operates, monitors and evaluates the whole remittance business through these three subsidiaries so as to generate the maximum synergy and create maximum value for the Company.

The Company operates the airtime segment via their international airtime transfer business through Tranglo and their retail airtime trading business locally in Indonesian through WalletKu. As with the remittance segment, management believes maximum synergy and business value can best be achieved by aggregating and managing the airtime business through these two subsidiaries.

The Company accounts for share-based payments in accordance with ASC Topic 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”), under which the fair value of awards issued to employees is expensed over the period in which the awards vest.

Seamless had an incentive plan approved and adopted on September 13, 2018, namely the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. Under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, a total of 2,591,543 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and 978,397 options with an exercise price of $12.87 had been awarded to certain directors and employees. All RSUs and options granted under the 2018 Incentive Plan had not been vested. The 2018 Incentive Plan was later terminated on July 29, 2022 and replaced by the new 2022 Incentive Plan. All previous awarded RSUs and options under the 2018 Incentive Plan were voided. Under the 2022 Incentive Plan, a total of 5,803,000 Seamless shares were reserved and granted to employees of Seamless.

All shares granted under the 2022 Incentive Plan will be vested upon (i) the completion of an IPO or (ii) the completion of a de-SPAC merger, with such vesting occurring upon the Closing of the Business Combination on August 30, 2024. The Incentive shares will then be vested under a trust, with 3,964,324 ordinary shares (part of the 40,000,000 Exchange Consideration Shares) being placed in trust upon the Closing of the Business Combination. The trustee will distribute the vested shares to the staff based on a schedule of (i) one third immediately upon the vesting of Incentive shares at the time of completion of IPO or de-SPAC, (ii) one third on the first anniversary date thereafter, (iii) one third on the second anniversary date thereafter. As of September 30, 2024,1,321,441 vested shares have been distributed to the staff, while 2,642,883 vested shares remain in trust.

Seamless estimates the fair value of awards using a binomial pricing model. Seamless accounts forfeitures as they occur. For the awards granted on July 29, 2022, the following assumptions were used in the model:

Expected Volatility (39.84% to 43.74%)

Expected Dividend Yield (0%)

Expected Time to Liquidity (0.92 years to 2.92 years)

Exercise Price ($Nil)

Stock price at grant date ($6.55)

Weighted Average Fair Value of 1 Share ($5.73)

The fair value of the awards granted on July 29, 2022 is $30,479,627, after accounting for the forfeiture of 489,333 shares as of September 30, 2024.

For the awards granted on July 29, 2022, the following assumptions were used in the model:

Expected Volatility (26.65% to 42.32%)

Expected Dividend Yield (0%)

Expected Time to Liquidity (0.03 years to 2.03 years)

Exercise Price ($Nil)

Stock price at grant date ($6.22)

Weighted Average Fair Value of 1 Share ($5.78)

On August 30, 2024, Seamless has re-granted 466,573 shares out of the forfeited shares mentioned above. The fair value of the awards granted on August 30, 2024 is $2,696,053.

Share-based compensation expense recognized during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2024 is $13,137,850.

Prefunding to remittance partner represents deposits made with such a partner for remittance services to be rendered by the partner in the future. The prepayments are utilized when a remittance order is executed by the partner and the resulting amount of the order is deducted from the balance with the partner.

We allow our remittance partners to prefund their balance through cryptocurrencies. These cryptocurrencies are mainly XRP. Ripple provides the XRP upon request to the Company and our remittance partners. Under applicable accounting standards, we are an agent when facilitating cryptocurrency transactions on behalf of our customers. These cryptocurrencies are held under a bailment arrangement in an account in the Company’s name on behalf of our business partner but they are not Seamless’s assets and therefore, are not reflected as cryptocurrency assets on our consolidated balance sheets . Although the Company does not control the XRP in the bailment account, we are responsible for safeguarding the XRP in the bailment account.

Independent Reserve SG Pte Ltd (“Independent Reserve”), Philippine Digital Asset Exchange (“Pdax”), Betur, Inc. (“Coins.ph”) and Bitstamp Global Limited (“Bitstamp”) (collectively, the “Cryptocurrency Exchanges”) are centralized crypto exchanges which keep the cryptographic keys for each respective XRP wallet and provide the Company with its respective API access keys. The Company is the only party that holds the API access keys that grant it direct access to its XRP wallet maintained on the respective Cryptocurrency Exchange. The Cryptocurrency Exchanges maintain records of all assets deposited by its users and send statements to the Company. The Company reconciles its internal ODL transaction records to the statements received from the Cryptocurrency Exchanges to ensure that these are accurate. The Company has an obligation to protect the API access keys from being abused or stolen. The Company is responsible for any damages caused by loss or theft.

Due to the unique risks associated with cryptocurrencies, including technological, legal, and regulatory risks, in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121 (“SAB 121”), we recognize a crypto asset safeguarding liability to reflect our obligation to safeguard the crypto assets held in the bailment account, which is recorded in Accounts payable, accruals and other payables on our consolidated balance sheet. We also recognize a corresponding safeguarding asset which is recorded in Prepayments, receivables and other assets on our consolidated balance sheet. The crypto asset safeguarding liability and corresponding safeguarding asset are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis using prices available in the market we determine to be the principal market at the balance sheet date. The corresponding safeguarding asset may be adjusted for loss events, as applicable. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has not incurred any safeguarding loss events, and therefore, the crypto asset safeguarding liability and corresponding safeguarding asset were recorded at the same value. Safeguarding assets as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are $2,222,368 and $1,983,116 respectively. Safeguarding liabilities as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are $2,222,368 and $1,983,116 respectively.

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income or loss by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period, without consideration of potentially dilutive securities.

Diluted net earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income or loss by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding for the period. If there is a loss, potentially dilutive securities are not considered, as they would be anti-dilutive.

The following tables provide the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per ordinary share for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2024, and September 30, 2023:

The following table conveys the number of shares that may potentially be dilutive ordinary shares in the future. The holders of these shares do not have a contractual obligation to share in the Company’s losses. The Company excluded the following potential ordinary shares, presented based on amounts outstanding at each period end, from the computation of diluted loss per share:

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent reporting period end date while the warrants are outstanding. All of the Company’s warrants have met the criteria for equity treatment (see Note 13,Shareholders’ Deficit, for additional information).

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly, hypothetical transaction between market participants at the measurement date, or exit price. ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”) establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:

ASC 825-10,Financial Instruments, allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company elected to apply the fair value option to its PIPE Convertible Note described in Note 10,Convertible bonds and notes. This financial liability was initially measured at its issue-date fair value and is subsequently remeasured at fair value on a recurring basis at each reporting period date. The Company elected to present the fair value and the interest components together in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Therefore, interest is included as a component of changes in fair value of debt presented in the “Other income” line item in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The following table provides the financial liability reported at fair value and measured on a recurring basis at September 30, 2024:

As of December 31, 2023, no financial liabilities were reported at fair value and measured on a recurring basis. There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels during the period ended September 30, 2024.

The assumptions used in determining the fair value of the Company’s outstanding convertible note for the period ended September 30, 2024, is as follows:

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07,Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires an enhanced disclosure of significant segment expenses on an annual and interim basis. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our financial statements.

The Merger Sub merged with and into Seamless on the Closing Date, as described in Note 1,Business Combination. Seamless survived the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of INFINT, and INFINT changed its name to Currenc.

Prior to the closing of the Business Combination, Seamless had 58,030,000 shares outstanding and the following transactions occurred immediately prior to the Closing:

At the effective time of the Reverse Recapitalization:

Immediately following the Reverse Recapitalization and the PIPE Financing, the Company had 46,527,999 ordinary shares and 17,932,892 warrants outstanding.

The Currenc ordinary shares issued and outstanding immediately following the consummation of the Reverse Recapitalization were as follows:

At the closing of the Business Combination, $56.0 million remained in the Company’s trust account, of which $54.8 million was used to pay public shareholders who exercised redemption rights, $0.8 million was used to pay outstanding fees and expenses of INFINT incurred in connection with the Business Combination, and $0.3 million was used to partially repay deferred underwriting fees, with no balance remaining for working capital and general corporate purposes of Currenc.

Simultaneous with the closing of the Business Combination, Currenc completed the PIPE Offering, resulted in gross proceeds of $1.75 million, of which $0.8 million was used to pay outstanding fees and expenses of INFINT, $0.5 million was used to pay a directors and officers insurance premium, and $0.4 million was used to pay outstanding fees and expenses of Seamless.

Due to their subjective nature, any potential transaction-related costs (including legal, accounting and other professional fees) have been expensed as incurred on the respective company’s financial statements. Pre-Closing costs of INFINT were expensed as incurred in their records and are recorded to additional paid-in capital upon Reverse Recapitalization. Pre-Closing costs of Seamless were expensed as incurred and are included in the historical financial statements presented. Post-Closing, any such costs of Currenc are being expensed as incurred in the financial statements presented.

The net liabilities of INFINT were recognized at their carrying value immediately prior to the Closing with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded and were as follows:

The following table sets forth the goodwill by reportable segments:

The goodwill was arising from the acquisition of Tranglo and Walletku Group in 2018 and 2022, respectively.

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company obtained loans from two members of management of the Company:

A loan of HK$12.3 million (equivalent to US$1.6 million) has been provided by Mr. Alexander Kong, the Chairman, at an interest rate of 12% per annum. Another loan of HK$3.6 million (equivalent to US$0.5 million) has been provided by Dr. Ronnie Hui, the Chief Executive Officer, at an interest rate of 12% per annum.

As of September 30, 2024, loans of US$7.9 million were guaranteed by Mr. Alexander Kong (2023: US$8.7 million).

Interest expense during the three month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was US$3,855,555 and US$695,276, respectively.

Interest expense during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was US$7,682,277 and US$3,850,152, respectively.

In connection with the Business Combination, the Company executed several unsecured promissory notes on August 30, 2024:

(i) Promissory Notes to Third Parties:

On August 30, 2024, the Company issued unsecured promissory notes for approximately $5.7 million to EF Hutton to settle the balance of deferred underwriting fees and approximately $3.2 million to Greenberg Traurig to settle the balance of legal fees. The outstanding amount under the loans as of September 30, 2024 was approximately $8.9 million.

(ii) Promissory Note to Related Party:

On August 30, 2024, the Company issued a promissory note to the Sponsor for $603,623, replacing the existing unsecured promissory note with an outstanding amount of $325,000 dated September 13, 2023, for financing working capital expenses. As of September 30, 2024, the new promissory note had an outstanding balance of $603,623.

The promissory notes to third parties and related party issued in connection with the Business Combination do not bear interest, and the principal balances are payable in equal monthly installments over terms of less than one year. The notes are subject to customary events of default and financing closure above a certain threshold, which, if triggered, would cause the unpaid principal balance and all other sums payable under the notes to become immediately due and payable.

The fair value of these notes approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

As of September 30, 2024, the borrowings will be due according to the following schedule:

The carrying values of short-term borrowings approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities. The Company’s long-term borrowings are subject to both fixed and floating interest rates. The carrying values of each type of these borrowings approximate their fair values as the interest rates reflect the rates offered to other entities with similar characteristics to Currenc.

The receivables factoring facility represents an interest-bearing loan for an amount of US$624,227 (2023: US$423,483) based on terms and conditions set out in the facility agreement dated January 10, 2019 and further revised on April 22, 2021. The loan is secured, bears an effective interest rate of 9.8% (2023:10%) per annum calculated on a daily rest basis at the end of the reporting period.

On issuance, the Convertible Promissory Note had a fair value of $1,750,000 and matures on the eighteen-month anniversary date of the issuance of such convertible promissory note (“Maturity Date”) and bears interest at a rate of 12% per annum. This interest is due in either cash or stock quarterly on each March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31, of each year commencing August 31, 2024. In case of an event of default, the outstanding principal and any accrued but unpaid interest will become immediately repayable.

On August 17, 2024, Ripple Markets APAC Pte. Ltd., the successor to Ripple Labs Singapore Pte. Ltd. (“RMA”), sent a default letter to GEA demanding payment totaling $27,257,540.64, and sent a demand letter to Seamless, as guarantor, for the full amount of the payment by August 19, 2024.

Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 550,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were 46,527,999 and 33,980,753 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, respectively (reflecting retroactive application of recapitalization).

Warrants—The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the consummation of a Business Combination and 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the consummation of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any ordinary share pursuant to the exercise of a Public Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such Public Warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the ordinary share issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration or such issuance is deemed to be exempt under the Securities Act and the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants.

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary share issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of ordinary share at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional ordinary share or equity-linked securities in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors, and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or its affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the completion of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s ordinary share during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day after the day on which the Company completes a Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

The Private Placement Warrants, as well as up to 1,500,000 warrants underlying additional Private Placement Warrants the Company issues to the Sponsor, officers, directors, initial shareholders or their affiliates in payment of Working Capital Loans made to the Company, will be identical to the warrants underlying the Units being offered in the Initial Public Offering. Pursuant to the agreement that the Company has entered into with the holders of the Private Placement Warrants, the Private Placement Warrants may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holder until 30 days after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination.

At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were 9,999,940 Public Warrants outstanding and 7,796,842 Private Placement Warrants outstanding, respectively. At September 30, 2024, there were 136,110 PIPE Warrants outstanding (see Note 10,Convertible bonds and notes, for additional information). The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the instruments’ specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and ASC 815. The assessment considers whether the instruments are free standing financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the instruments meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the instruments are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the instrument holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, was conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent period end date while the instruments are outstanding. Management has concluded that the Public Warrants, Private Placement Warrants and PIPE Warrants issued pursuant to their respective warrant agreement qualify for equity accounting treatment.

The Company has evaluated all events and transactions that occurred after September 30, 2024 through the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and determined that there have been no events that have occurred that would require adjustment to disclosures in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
