Item 8. Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Lendway, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Opinion on the consolidated financial statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Lendway, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
The consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Business Combination – Estimate for Valuation of Acquired Intangible and Certain Long-Lived Assets
Description of the Critical Audit Matter
On February 22, 2024, the Company acquired majority ownership of Bloomia B.V. and Subsidiaries for total purchase consideration of $53,360,000. The transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting as a business combination whereby the total purchase price was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the respective estimated fair value of such assets and liabilities on the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. We identified the fair value determination of the intangible assets and certain long-lived assets acquired in the business combination as a critical audit matter due to the significant judgement required in determining their estimated values.
With respect to the intangible assets acquired, which consist of a trade name and customer relationships, the estimated fair values were determined based on the relief-from-royalty and multi-period excess earnings (“MPEEM”) methods, respectively. A cost method approach was used to value certain other long-lived assets, consisting primarily of property and equipment. Auditing these values required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists, when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of significant management inputs to each valuation method, such as discount rates, royalty rates, revenue assumptions, forecasts, and retention rates.
How We Addressed the Critical Audit Matter in Our Audit
Our audit procedures related to the valuation determination of the intangible assets, certain long-lived assets, and noncontrolling interest acquired included the following, among others:
| ● | Obtained an understanding of the design and implementation of controls over the valuation of the intangible assets and certain long-lived assets acquired, including management’s review of significant inputs used and outputs obtained from each asset’s valuation determination. |
| ● | We assessed the knowledge, skills, abilities and objectivity of management’s valuation specialist and evaluated the work performed. |
| ● | We assessed the reasonableness of significant assumptions by testing forecasts, growth rates, selection of discount rates, royalty rates, and other inputs. |
| ● | We involved our valuation specialists to assist with the evaluation of the methodologies used by the Company and significant valuation assumptions included in the fair value estimates, including the discount rate applied to future cash flows. |
| ● | We tested the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used in the fair value models which included inspecting contractual documents, comparing projected cash flows to both historical actuals, management's plans and inquiring of management. |
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2023.
