Business Overview
Current report
Sharplink, Inc. is a publicly traded company that, in June 2025, undertook a significant strategic shift by adopting Ether (“ETH”), the native token of the Ethereum blockchain, as its primary treasury asset. Through this strategy, Sharplink seeks to align its capital allocation and treasury management with the growth of blockchain-based financial infrastructure, programmable finance, and decentralized protocols on Ethereum. As part of this transition, the Company became one of the largest publicly traded companies to pursue an ETH-centered digital asset treasury strategy.
Current report
Sharplink operates through two reportable segments: ETH Treasury Management and Affiliate Marketing.
Current report
The Company’s ETH Treasury Management focuses on the accumulation and active management of ETH as a long-term treasury asset. Sharplink seeks to benefit from potential ETH price appreciation and from protocol-level rewards earned by participating in Ethereum’s proof-of-stake consensus mechanism through staking activities. These activities include both native staking and liquid staking arrangements, executed within a governance, custody, and risk management framework designed to meet public company standards. The Company is not registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Current report
In addition, Sharplink continues to operate a legacy Affiliate Marketing segment that provides performance-based customer acquisition services to sportsbook and online casino gaming operators in regulated jurisdictions. Through its international affiliate network, PAS.net, and a portfolio of U.S. state-specific digital properties, the Company drives user traffic and player acquisition for licensed gaming operators. While this business remains operational, management’s strategic focus has shifted toward digital asset treasury activities.
Current report
Sharplink’s business model emphasizes balance sheet deployment, disciplined capital allocation and internal treasury management rather than traditional operating leverage. Management believes this approach positions the Company to participate in the evolving digital asset ecosystem while maintaining public company governance, transparency, and regulatory compliance.

Potential Reverse Stock-Split
Previous report
On November 5, 2024, SharpLink Gaming, Inc.'s Board of Directors unanimously adopted resolutions approving, declaring advisable and recommending to the stockholders for their approval a proposal to authorize the Board of Directors, in its discretion, to amend our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding Common Stock at a ratio of up to and including 6:1, such ratio to be determined by the Board of Directors, including any increase in our authorized capital required in the event a fractional share will be created as a result of the reverse stock split. On December 23, 2024 at SharpLink's Annual General Meeting of Stockholders, stockholders approved the reverse stock split, granting the Board of Directors the authority, without further action by the stockholders, to carry out such action, with the exact exchange ratio and timing to be determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may determine in its discretion not to effect the reverse stock split and not to file any amendment to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. The primary purpose for effecting the reverse stock split, should the Board of Directors choose to effect one, would be to increase the per share price of SharpLink's Common Stock to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).
Previous report
On July 17, 2024, the Company received a letter (the "Bid Price Deficiency Notice”) from Nasdaq notifying the Company that, because the closing bid price for its common stock had been below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive trading days, it was not compliant with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. In accordance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company had a period of 180 calendar days, or until January 7, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If at any time before January 7, 2025, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock closed at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days (which number days may be extended by Nasdaq), Nasdaq would provide written notification that the Company had achieved compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and the matter would be resolved.

On January 8, 2025, SharpLink received a letter (the "Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq indicating the Company’s continued non-compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "Bid Price Rule”). The Notice from the Staff informed the Company that the Staff had determined that the Company has not regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and was not eligible for a second 180-day compliance period, due to the Company’s previously reported failure to comply with the $5,000,000 minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for initial listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market as required under Listing Rule 5505(b)(1). SharpLink is working to evidence compliance with Minimum Bid Price Requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market and intends to submit a plan to that effect to the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the "Panel”) as part of the hearing process, which is expected to include plans to effect the reverse stock split. However, there can be no assurance the Panel will grant any request for continued listing or that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the applicable listing criteria within the period of time that may be granted by the Panel even in the event that the Company's Board elects to effect a reverse stock split of its share capital.

2023 Continued Listing Deficiencies
Previous report
On May 23, 2023, SharpLink received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) stating that SharpLink did not comply with the equity standard for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Rule”) requires listed companies to maintain stockholders’ equity of at least $2.5 million under the net equity standard. As of the SharpLink Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, SharpLink reported total stockholders’ deficit of $4,463,917. SharpLink did not meet the alternative standards for market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations, thus SharpLink was not in compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule. As reported on a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 12, 2023, SharpLink submitted a hearing request with the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) on November 28, 2023, relating to the Staff’s determination to delist the Company’s securities from Nasdaq due to the Company’s failure to meet the minimum $2.5 million shareholders’ equity requirement for continued listing as defined by the Rule. On November 28, 2023, the Company was notified by Nasdaq that an oral hearing (the “Hearing”) had been scheduled for February 20, 2024; and, the delisting action referenced in the Staff’s determination letter, dated November 21, 2023, had been stayed, pending a final determination by the Panel.
Previous report
On January 24, 2024, SharpLink filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC, disclosing details of the sale of its Sports Gaming Client Services and SportsHub Gaming Network business units to RSports Interactive, Inc. for $22.5 million in an all-cash transaction (the “Sale of Business”). As a result of the Sale of Business, the Company’s total stockholders’ equity exceeded $2.5 million as of the date of the above referenced Form 8-K filing. As a result of the Sale of Business, the Company believed that it had regained compliance with all applicable continued listing requirements and had requested that the Staff determine whether the Hearing should be cancelled. On February 7, 2024, SharpLink received formal notification from Nasdaq that the Company’s previously announced deficiency under the Rule had been cured, and the Company had regained compliance with all applicable continued listing standards. Therefore, the Hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel, originally scheduled for February 20, 2024, was cancelled.

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Our most critical estimates include those related to use of accounting for revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, warrants anddiscontinued operations. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
