Current report
As part of our capital allocation strategy for assets that are not required to provide working capital for our ongoing operations, we have invested and will continue to invest in BERA. As of the date of this prospectus, we hold over 54,000,000 BERA. The price of BERA has historically been subject to dramatic price fluctuations and is highly volatile. In addition, because our Treasury Policy is currently primarily concentrated in BERA, adverse developments specific to BERA, including protocol-level failures, governance decisions, validator network instability, or ecosystem contraction, could disproportionately impact our financial condition.
Current report
Any decrease in the fair value of BERA below our carrying value for such assets could require us to incur a loss due to the decrease in fair market value, and such charge could be material to our financial results for the applicable reporting period, which may create significant volatility in our reported earnings. Any decrease in reported earnings or increased volatility of such earnings could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our Common Stock. In addition, the application of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, with respect to BERA, may change in the future and could have a material adverse effect on our financial results and the market price of our Common Stock.
Current report
In addition, if investors view the value of our Common Stock as dependent upon or linked to the value or change in the value of our BERA holdings, the price of BERA may significantly influence the market price of our Common Stock.
Current report
Our Common Stock may trade at a substantial premium or discount to the value of the BERA tokens we hold, and our stock price may be more volatile than the price of BERA.
Current report
The market price of our Common Stock reflects many factors that do not affect the spot price of BERA and may therefore diverge materially — positively or negatively — from the per-share value of our BERA token holdings (net of cash, other assets and liabilities). These factors include, among others: our corporate-level expenses; taxes; the timing, size and pricing of equity or debt financings (including at-the-market offerings, equity line financings or convertible securities), equity awards and other sources of dilution; expectations about our future purchases or sales of BERA tokens or our onchain activities, including staking, validator or other DeFi initiatives; our liquidity and public float; differences in trading hours and market microstructure between our Common Stock and spot markets for BERA tokens; changes in index inclusion, analyst coverage or investor sentiment toward us as an operating company; our corporate governance, financial reporting, and any actual or perceived operational, custody, technology or regulatory risks specific to us; and broader equity-market conditions independent of digital asset markets. As a result, our Common Stock may trade at a premium or discount to the value of our BERA token holdings for extended periods, and may be more volatile than the price of BERA tokens. Accordingly, investors could lose all or a substantial part of their investment even if the market price of BERA does not decline, and may not benefit commensurately from increases in the market price of BERA tokens.
Current report
Our historical financial statements do not reflect the potential variability in earnings that we may experience in the future relating to our BERA token holdings.
Current report
Our historical financial statements do not reflect the potential variability in earnings that we may experience in the future from holding or selling significant amounts of BERA tokens.
Current report
The price of BERA tokens is subject to dramatic price fluctuations and is highly volatile. For example, from February 6, 2025 (the date BERA tokens first became available on digital asset trading platforms) through October 26, 2025, the price of BERA tokens, as reported by CoinGecko.com, ranged from a high of $8.75 to a low of $1.58. We are required to measure our BERA token holdings at fair value in our statement of financial position, and to recognize gains and losses from changes in the fair value of our BERA tokens in net income each reporting period, which may create significant volatility in our reported earnings and decrease the carrying value of our digital assets, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. Conversely, any sale of BERA tokens at prices above our carrying value for such assets creates a gain for financial reporting purposes even if we would otherwise incur an economic or tax loss with respect to such transaction, which also may result in significant volatility in our reported earnings.
Current report
Because we intend to purchase additional BERA tokens in future periods and increase our overall holdings of BERA tokens, we expect that the proportion of our total assets represented by our BERA token holdings will increase in the future. As a result, volatility in our earnings may be significantly more than what we experienced in prior periods.
Current report
For many reasons, including those described below, our operating results, revenues, and expenses may vary significantly in the future from quarter to quarter. These fluctuations could have an adverse effect on the market price of our Common Stock.
Current report
The trading prices of many digital assets, including BERA, have experienced extreme volatility in recent periods and may continue to do so. Extreme volatility in the future, including further declines in the trading prices of BERA, could have a material adverse effect on the value of the Common Stock.
Current report
The trading prices of many digital assets, including BERA, have experienced extreme volatility in recent periods and may continue to do so, including as a result of shifts in market sentiment, speculative trading, macroeconomic trends, technology-related disruptions, and regulatory announcements. Digital asset trading markets, including the BERA network, are relatively new, largely unregulated, and, at times, subject to limited liquidity. As a result, trading activity on or reported by these digital asset trading platforms, including BERA, is generally significantly less regulated than trading in regulated U.S. securities and commodities markets and may reflect behavior that would be prohibited in regulated U.S. trading venues. Furthermore, many digital asset trading platforms lack certain safeguards put in place by more traditional exchanges to enhance the stability of trading on the platform. The digital asset markets may also be experiencing a bubble or may experience a bubble in the future, which may undermine confidence and affect liquidity of the digital asset markets. A rapid decrease in the price of BERA —whether as a result of negative perception, a lack of stability in the digital asset trading platforms, market manipulation of cryptocurrency trading platforms by customers, a cyber-security incident, regulatory action, or other factors—could materially reduce the value of any BERA we hold, force us to recognize impairment charges, trigger defaults or covenant breaches in any future financing arrangements, and could have a material adverse effect on the value of our Common Stock that may result in the loss of all or substantially all of its value.

Risks Related to Our Digital Asset Trading Strategy and Cryptocurrencies
Current report
We have recently adopted a digital asset treasury strategy with a focus on BERA, and we may be unable to successfully implement this new strategy.
Current report
We have recently adopted our Treasury Policy primarily dedicated to BERA, including potential investments in BERA, including through staking, validator activities and engaging in other DeFi strategies. There is no assurance that we will be able to successfully implement our Treasury Policy or operate BERA-related activities at the scale or profitability currently anticipated. BERA operates with a proof-of-liquidity consensus mechanism, which differs significantly from other consensus mechanisms, and will require specialized employee skillsets and novel treasury management practices tailored to the Berachain network. Further, there is ongoing scrutiny and limited formal guidance from regulatory agencies, including Nasdaq and the SEC, with respect to the treatment of public company digital asset strategies. Our inability to implement the Treasury Policy for whatever reason, could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
Current report
Our shift towards aBERA*-focused strategy requires substantial changes in our day-to-day operations and exposes us to significant operational risks.*
Current report
Our shift towards a BERA- focused strategy exposes us to significant operational risks. In connection with the implementation of our Treasury Policy, we intend to operate a validator to help secure the Berachain network, and we expect to allocate a portion of our BERA holdings to other onchain activities, including staking and certain DeFi strategies. If we serve as a validator, we may suffer slashing or forfeiture of rewards due to downtime, misconfiguration, or malicious software, materially reducing the number of BERA held in our treasury. In addition, the Berachain protocol is rapidly evolving, with frequent upgrades and protocol changes that may require significant adjustments to our operational setup and allocation strategy. The upgrades and protocol changes may require that we incur unanticipated costs and could cause temporary service disruptions. We may also need to employ third-party service providers in our operations, which may introduce risks outside of our control, including significant cybersecurity risks. In connection with our proposed activities, we intend to operate a validator to secure the Berachain network. If we choose to serve as a validator, we may suffer slashing or forfeiture of rewards due to downtime, misconfiguration, or malicious software, materially reducing the number of BERA held in our treasury. Any of these operational risks could materially and adversely affect our ability to execute our Treasury Policy, prevent us from realizing positive returns and severely hurt our financial condition.
Current report
A disruption of the internet may affect the operation of blockchain networks, which may adversely affect the digital asset industry and an investment in us.
Current report
Blockchain protocols rely on the internet. A significant disruption of internet connectivity could disrupt blockchain networks’ functionality until such disruption is resolved. A disruption in the internet could adversely affect an investment in us. In particular, some variants of blockchain protocols have experienced denial-of-service attacks, which have led to temporary delays in block creation and digital asset transfers.
Current report
Digital assets are also susceptible to border gateway protocol hijacking (“BGP hijacking”). Such an attack can be a very effective way for an attacker to intercept traffic en route to a legitimate destination. BGP hijacking impacts the way different nodes are connected to one another to isolate portions of them from the remainder of the network, which could lead to a risk of the network allowing double-spending and other security issues.
Current report
Any internet failures or internet connectivity-related attacks that impact the ability to transfer or secure digital assets could have a material adverse effect on the price of digital assets generally, and BERA’s value specifically, and the value of an investment in us.
Current report
Blockchain technologies are based on theoretical conjectures as to the impossibility of solving certain cryptographical puzzles quickly. These premises may be incorrect or may become incorrect due to technological advances.
Current report
Blockchain technologies are premised on theoretical conjectures as to the impossibility, in practice, of solving certain mathematical problems quickly. Those conjectures remain unproven, however, and mathematical or technological advances could conceivably prove them to be incorrect. Blockchain technology companies may also be negatively affected by cryptography or other technological or mathematical advances, such as the development of quantum computers with significantly more power than computers presently available, that undermine or vitiate the cryptographic consensus mechanism underpinning Berachain and other blockchain protocols. If either of these events were to happen, markets that rely on blockchain technologies could quickly collapse, and an investment in our Common Stock may be adversely affected.
Current report
Technical shortcomings or defects in the BERA network, including changes to its validator structure, governance model, or core software, could diminish the utility and value of BERA and harm our business.
Current report
The BERA network is a public, open-source and decentralized blockchain protocol that is not under our or any single party’s control. Its ongoing viability depends on the continued consensus and cooperation of independent developers, validators, tokenholders, and other ecosystem participants. The existing Berachain protocol may be subject to significant alterations, including by way of community governance votes, and any such changes may have a material adverse effect on BERA and the viability of the Berachain protocol. If Berachain experiences a successful cyber-attack, a material software bug, a “hard fork” that fragments the network, or a prolonged outage, market confidence in BERA could be severely undermined. Similarly, decisions by influential validators to adopt protocol changes, modify transaction-fee structures, or alter other existing practices or network governance could adversely affect BERA’s economics and, therefore, the value of our holdings. Further, because the governance of decentralized networks, such as Berachain, is by voluntary consensus, a single party could gain majority control of the network, and enact changes or amendments to the network that are otherwise undesirable to other participants. Were this to happen, it could harm the value of BERA and therefore the value of the Common Stock.
Current report
If validators exit the BERA network, it could increase the likelihood of a malicious actor obtaining control.
Current report
Validators exiting the network could make BERA more vulnerable to a malicious actor obtaining control of a large percentage of staked BERA, which might enable them to manipulate the BERA network by censoring or manipulating specific transactions, or undermining the economic incentives underlying the Berachain ecosystem. If the BERA network suffers such an attack, the price of BERA could be negatively affected, and a loss of confidence in the BERA network could result. Any reduction in confidence in the transaction confirmation process or staking power of the BERA network may adversely affect an investment in the Common Stock.
Current report
Berachain may not be able to compete with other blockchain networks. If Berachain is not able to compete successfully, the value of BERA would be significantly affected.
Current report
Berachain faces intense competition from a large number of established layer-1 blockchains, including Ethereum, Solana, and Binance Smart Chain, layer-2 scaling solutions, and emerging protocols, many of which currently maintain significantly larger active user bases, higher total value locked (“TVL”), more extensive developer communities, broader third-party tooling and wallet support, deeper liquidity across centralized and decentralized exchanges, and more robust cross-chain interoperability frameworks. These competing networks may offer lower transaction fees, faster finality, superior virtual machine performance, more advanced smart-contract languages, or more effective incentive programs that attract users, liquidity providers, dApp developers, and other participants away from Berachain. If Berachain fails to generate sufficient user interest relative to these alternatives, the network could experience reduced protocol adoption and diminished liquidity. Such outcomes may lead to lower user and transaction volumes, reduced fee revenue, impaired ability to fund ongoing development, and a downward spiral in token valuation, ultimately jeopardizing the long-term viability of the Berachain ecosystem.
Current report
The economic design underlying PoL may be flawed, may fail to gain adoption, or may be exploited. Any such events could undermine the growth and development of the Berachain network.
Current report
Berachain’s network security, incentive alignment, and ecosystem growth depend entirely on the proper functioning of its novel PoL consensus mechanism, including the recently introduced PoLv2 framework. Under this design, validators stake BERA to secure the network and earn BGT emissions through block production, then stake or delegate BGT to dApps to direct future reward allocation; dApps distribute BGT to users for providing liquidity or engaging in protocol activity; and users may burn BGT for BERA. As a new consensus mechanism, users may be reluctant or unable to understand the technical underpinnings and benefits of PoL, and may favor a more traditional consensus mechanism, such as proof of stake or proof of work. If validators delegate BGT to low-performing or malicious dApps, dApps distribute rewards inefficiently or in ways that favor short-term speculation over sustained usage, or liquidity suffers due to lack of actual or perceived alignment between different ecosystem parties, the intended incentive loop may break. Such failures could result in misaligned emissions, and if rewards are capture by a limited set of participants, or if there is insufficient liquidity in core DeFi primitives or declining BERA staking participation, the network effect intended by the PoL consensus mechanism may fail to be achieved. From time to time, the Berachain community may also make additional changes to the PoL mechanism, such as via the PoLv2 update, which introduces increased complexity through dynamic emission schedules, delegation weighting mechanisms, and customizable reward modules, any of which may contain latent design flaws, unintended economic consequences, or vulnerabilities not identified during testing or early deployment. Future iterations of PoL may introduce additional changes that disrupt existing incentives, and even a well-designed system remains susceptible to coordinated exploitation, front-running of reward signals, or sybil attacks. A breakdown in PoL functionality or adoption could lead to declining network activity, erosion of economic security, loss of developer and user confidence, and a decline of the Berachain ecosystem, any of which could have significant adverse consequences for BERA.
Current report
We and other users may suffer losses due to staking or validator slashing, which could make Berachain less attractive.
Current report
Berachain’s native staking protocol is relatively new and requires users to place BERA in a smart contract that is not under anyone’s control. Users who serve as validators also risk losing some or all of their BERA if they intentionally or unintentionally perform their duties poorly, for example, by double-signing a transaction or experiencing downtime, in a process known as slashing. Any cybersecurity attacks, security issues, hacks, penalties, slashing events, or other problems could damage validators’ willingness to participate in validation and stakers’ willingness to participate in staking, and this could further discourage existing and future validators and stakers from serving as such, thereby adversely impacting Berachain’s adoption and the price of BERA. Any disruption of validation on Berachain could interfere with network operations and cause Berachain to be less attractive to users and application developers than competing blockchain networks, which could cause the price of BERA to decrease. Further, the limited liquidity during the unbonding period of the staking process could cause Berachain to be less attractive to users and application developers than competing blockchain networks, which could cause the price of BERA to decrease. Any decrease in the price of BERA could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
Current report
We face risks relating to the potential compromise of Berachain’s and other blockchains’ network security by emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence and quantum computing, which may materially and adversely impact our operations and financial condition.
Current report
The security and integrity of Berachain and other blockchains’ network are fundamentally dependent on the robustness of its cryptographic algorithms. BERA and other cryptocurrencies’ protocol relies heavily on public key cryptography and hashing algorithms to secure transactions, safeguard private keys, and prevent double-spending. Advances in emerging technologies, particularly artificial intelligence (“AI”) and quantum computing may pose significant risks to Berachain and other blockchains’ network’s security and operational stability.
Current report
Quantum computing, in particular, presents a long-term threat to the cryptographic assumptions underpinning BERA and other digital assets. Should quantum computing achieve sufficient maturity, it could undermine the effectiveness of the cryptographic algorithms used to secure the blockchain. A sufficiently powerful quantum computer could potentially reverse-engineer private keys from public addresses or compromise the blockchain’s consensus mechanism, leading to the theft of digital assets, double-spending, and other forms of fraud. Although current quantum computing capabilities are not yet at this level, advancements in quantum technologies could materialize more rapidly than anticipated, creating significant systemic risks for the Berachain protocol and the BERA token.
Current report
AI may also pose indirect security risks. AI-driven cyberattacks, including advanced phishing schemes, autonomous malware, and intelligent blockchain analysis tools, could increase the sophistication and success rate of attacks targeting Berachain and other blockchains’ users, exchanges, custodians, and node operators. The use of AI to exploit vulnerabilities in software, hardware, or network protocols could threaten the stability and reliability of Berachain and other blockchains’ ecosystems.
Current report
There can be no assurance that Berachain’s and other blockchains’ current cryptographic safeguards will be sufficient to protect against future technological advances. While research and development efforts are ongoing to develop quantum-resistant cryptographic protocols, Berachain’s and other blockchains’ networks may face challenges in adopting such technologies at scale, particularly given their decentralized governance structure. Any successful attack or perceived vulnerability arising from AI or quantum computing could materially and adversely affect the price, liquidity, and adoption of BERA and other digital assets and could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Current report
BERA is created and transmitted through the operations of the Berachain network, a decentralized network of computers running software following the Berachain protocol. If the Berachain network is disrupted or encounters any unanticipated difficulties, the value of BERA could be negatively impacted.
Current report
If the Berachain network is disrupted or encounters any unanticipated difficulties, then the processing of transactions on the Berachain network may be disrupted, which in turn may prevent us from depositing or withdrawing BERA from our accounts or otherwise effecting BERA transactions. Such disruptions could include, for example: the price volatility of BERA; the insolvency, business failure, interruption, default, failure to perform, security breach, or other problems of network participants, custodians or others; the closing of trading platforms on which BERA is transacted due to fraud, failures, security breaches or otherwise; or network outages or congestion, power outages, or other problems or disruptions affecting the Berachain network.
