TEN Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of TEN Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficiency), 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.

Substantial Doubt Regarding the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred losses, has negative cash flows from operations, and has negative working capital, that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s 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 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 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 financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

TEN HOLDINGS, INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization, Nature of Business

TEN Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on February 12, 2024 in Pennsylvania to act as the holding company of Ten Events, Inc. (“Ten Events”), which was incorporated in Pennsylvania on December 5, 2011 and is an operating entity. Ten Events was formed for the purpose of planning, producing, broadcasting virtual and hybrid events using its event platform, the Xyvid Pro Platform, and delivering physical events. Ten Events’ platform provides a dynamic, interactive, and engaging virtual event experience to its clients and enables clients to engage and interact with their target audience anywhere in the world through event webcasting.

At incorporation, the Company issued 100 shares of common stock withno stated par value. On July 2, 2024, as part of its reorganization, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with V-Cube, Inc., the Company’s principal stockholder. The Company acquired 1,000 shares of Ten Events from V-Cube, Inc. for the Company’s 100 shares of common stock. After the share exchange, Ten Events became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

On July 24, 2024, the Company changed its domicile of incorporation from Pennsylvania to the state of Nevada. Upon its domestication, each share of common stock, no par value per share, of the Company that is issued and outstanding and held by V-Cube, Inc. was automatically converted into 500,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 of the Company. After domestication, the total common stock issued and outstanding is 50,000,000 shares.

On October 9, 2024, the Company’s sole director and majority stockholder approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued common stock at a ratio of 2:1, which became effective on October 9, 2024. As a result of the reverse stock split,25,000,000 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding as of October 9, 2024.

The reorganization involves entities under common control. Under the guidance in ASC 805-50, for transactions between entities under common control, the assets, liabilities, and results of operations are recognized at their carrying amounts on the date of the restructuring, which required retrospective combination of the Company and Ten Events. The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if the existing corporate structure had been in existence throughout all periods presented rather than from the incorporation. This includes a retrospective presentation for all equity related disclosures, which were under common control throughout the relevant periods as a single economic enterprise although legal parent-subsidiary relationship were not established.

Going concern

The Company has evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued.

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to attract and retain revenue generating customers, acquire new customer contracts, and additional financing.

The Company has incurred and continues to incur losses from operations as well as negative cash flow from operations. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company had a net loss of $2,968, net cash used in operations of $2,485 and an accumulated deficit of $1,922. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company may consider obtaining additional financing in the future through the issuance of the Company’s common stocks through other equity or debt financing, or other means. The Company, however, is dependent upon its ability to obtain new revenue generating customer contracts and secure equity and/or debt financing and there are no assurances that the Company will be successful. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

As an emerging growth company, the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act allows the Company to delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. The Company has elected to delay adoption of certain new or revised accounting standards. As a result, the Company’s consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of issuers who are required to comply with the effective date for new or revised accounting standards that are applicable to public companies.

Basis of Consolidation

The Company consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest: Ten Events, Inc. and V-Cube USA Acquisition Company, LLC. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with the U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the reporting date, and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future and include, but are not limited to, allowance for credit losses, useful lives of property and equipment and capitalized software, the carrying value of operating lease right-of-use assets, impairment of long-lived assets, and valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company applies ASC Topic 606,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) for all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. To determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized in accordance with ASC 606, the Company follows a five-step model as follows:

1 – Identification of the contract with a customer

2 – Identification of the performance obligation in the contract

3 – Determination of the transaction price

4 – Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligation in the contract

5 – Recognition of revenue when, or as, a performance obligation is satisfied

Hybrid, virtual and physical event revenue

Revenue from hybrid, virtual and physical events is generated from producing and delivering hybrid or virtual events using the Company’s platform, the Xyvid Pro Platform, or delivering physical events. Virtual events are online events and conferences where participants interact in an online environment, and physical events are events where participants meet in a physical location.

The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring services to the customer. The transaction price is generally fixed at contract inception and is based on the agreed upon rates stated in the contract which indicates the amount of consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for satisfaction of performance obligation (i.e., delivering events). The amount on the final invoice depends on the actual work performed and might differ from the amount stated in the initial contract. When there is variable consideration included in the transaction price if, in the management’s judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue recognized under the contract will not occur, the Company and the customer agree on the price on the final invoice, and revenue is recognized based on the amount on the final invoice. None of our contracts contain a significant financing component. Revenue is recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to government entities.

Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised services to the customer, which is upon completion of the event. Revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those services.

The Company sometimes enters into the contract with a bundle of events. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on each performance obligation’s relative standalone selling price. The Company’s contracts with multiple performance obligations are generally sold over the same contract terms as that of the contract with single performance obligation and have the same pattern of transferring services to the customer, and therefore, they are accounted for as one combined performance obligation in the context of the contract.

From time to time, the Company engages subcontractors for delivering events. The Company assesses and records revenue on a gross basis as a principal versus on a net basis as an agent in the presentation of revenues and expenses. For events delivered with subcontractors, the Company has concluded that gross reporting is appropriate because the Company (i) has the risk of identifying and hiring qualified vendors, (ii) has the discretion to select the vendors and establish their price and duties, and (iii) bears the risk for services that are not fully paid for by its customers.

Segment Information

The Company currently operates business as one operating segment which includes two revenue types: Hybrid and Virtual Events and Physical Events. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), who reviews financial information for purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance, and allocating resources. The Company’s CODM evaluates financial information as a whole for the purpose of assessing financial performance and making operating decisions.

Concentration of Customers and Vendors

The consolidated balance sheet items that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash and accounts receivable. The Company continuously evaluates the credit worthiness of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. The Company maintains cash balances in bank accounts that may, at times, exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limits of $250,000 per institution. The Company incurred no losses from such accounts and management considers the risk of loss to be minimal.

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, there was one customer, who accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue in both periods. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were two customers who accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total accounts receivable in both periods.

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, there was one supplier , who accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total purchase in both periods. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were four and three suppliers, respectively, who accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total accounts payable in the respective periods.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments purchased with an initial maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable, Net

Accounts receivable primarily consist of the amounts billed and currently due from customers, net of an allowance for credit losses, if recorded. When the Company has an unconditional right to payment, subject only to the passage of time, the right is treated as receivable. The Company’s accounts receivable balances are unsecured, bearing no interest. Fees billed in advance of the related contractual term represent contract liabilities and are presented as deferred revenue. Typical payment terms provide for customer payment within 30 to 90 days of the invoice date.

Accounts receivable are subject to collection risk. The Company performs evaluations of its customers’ financial positions and generally extends credit on account, without collateral.

At each balance sheet date, the Company recognizes an expected allowance for credit losses. In addition, also at each reporting date, this estimate is updated to reflect any changes in credit risk since the receivable was initially recorded. This estimate is calculated on a pooled basis where similar risk characteristics exist.

The allowance estimate is derived from a review of the Company’s historical losses on the aging of receivables. This estimate is adjusted for management’s assessment of current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts regarding future events, and any other factors deemed relevant by the Company. The Company believes historical loss information is a reasonable starting point in which to calculate the expected allowance for credit losses as the Company’s customers’ composition have remained constant. The Company didnot record an allowance for credit loss as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.

The Company writes off receivables when there is information that indicates the debtor is facing significant financial difficulty and there is no possibility of recovery. If any recoveries are made from any accounts previously written off, they will be recognized in income or an offset to credit loss expense in the year of recovery. The Company did not have any write-offs of receivable during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

The amount of receivable included at the beginning of each period presented was $359 and $926, respectively.

Deferred Offering Costs

Deferred offering costs include specific incremental costs directly attributable to the Company’s initial public offering of securities . Deferred offering costs exclude management salaries or other general and administrative expenses. These costs are being deferred and will be charged against the gross proceeds of the offering. Deferred offering costs are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment are recorded at the cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:

Property and EquipmentEstimated Useful Life
Computer and equipment7 years
Furniture and fixture10 years
Leasehold improvementShorter of 10 years or lease term

Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of capitalized software. The Company accounts for its software development costs in accordance with the guidance in ASC 350-40,Internal-use software. The costs incurred prior to the application development stage and post implementation are expensed as incurred. Direct and incremental internal and external costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized until the application is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, at which point amortization begins. Training, data conversion and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Costs of capitalized software are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated period of benefit, which is approximately five years, and are recorded in cost of revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets used in operations are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company recognizes an impairment loss only if the carrying amount is not recoverable when compared to the Company’s undiscounted cash flows, and the impairment loss is measured based on the difference between the carrying amount and fair value. Long-lived assets held for sales are reported at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell.

Leases

Leases are comprised of operating leases for office space. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 842,Leases, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities, and non-current operating lease liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date.

For leases with terms greater than 12 months, the Company records a ROU asset and a lease liability representing the present value of future lease payments. The discount rate used to measure the lease asset and liability is determined at the beginning of the lease term using the rate implicit in the lease, or the Company’s collateralized incremental borrowing rate. The implicit rate within the Company’s leases is generally not determinable and, therefore, the incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement is utilized to determine the present value of lease payments. The Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate based on third-party lender quotes to obtain secured debt in a like currency for a similar asset over a timeframe similar to the term of the lease. For those contracts that include fixed rental payments for both the use of the asset (“lease costs”) as well as for other occupancy or service costs relating to the asset (“non-lease costs”), the Company generally includes both the lease costs and non-lease costs in the measurement of the lease asset and liability.

The Company accounts for each lease and any non-lease components associated with that lease as a single lease component for all asset classes. Lease expenses for the Company’s operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term except for variable lease costs, which are expensed as incurred. The Company does not recognize ROU assets and operating lease liabilities that arise from leases with an initial lease term of 12 months or less.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company reports financial assets and liabilities and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis in accordance with ASC Topic 820Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and credit risk.

ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. The U.S. GAAP established a hierarchy framework to classify the fair value based on the observability of significant inputs to the measurement.

The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1: Quoted price in an active market for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable.

Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable (for example, cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, such as cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and short-term loans approximate fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Deferred Revenue

Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue. Revenue is deferred when the Company has the right to invoice in advance of performance under a customer contract. The current portion of deferred revenue balances is recognized over the next 12 months. The amount of revenue recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 that was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of each period was $275 and $54, respectively.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue primarily consists of costs paid to its employees for delivering events and costs of renting equipment and studio.

Advertising and Marketing Costs

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, these costs were $160 and $144, respectively.

Employee Benefit Plan

Substantially all employees are eligible to participate in the 401(k) defined contribution plan which is sponsored by the Company. Participants may contribute a portion of their compensation to the plan, up to the maximum amount permitted under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. At the Company’s discretion, the Company can match a portion of the participants’ contributions. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $46 and $63, respectively, of expense for the defined contribution plans.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC Topic 740,Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets, liabilities and net operating loss by using enacted tax rate in effect for the fiscal year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rate on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that these assets are believed to be more likely than not to be realized. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not expected to be realized. In making such a determination, all available positive and negative evidence is considered, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations.

The Company files tax returns in the tax jurisdictions of the United States. Tax benefits for uncertain tax positions are based upon management’s evaluation of the information available at the reporting date. To be recognized in the financial statements, a tax benefit must be at least more likely than not of being sustained based on technical merits. The benefit for positions meeting the recognition threshold is measured as the largest benefit more likely than not of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information.

Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per common stock is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common stocks outstanding during the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per common stock is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common stocks and potentially dilutive securities outstanding for the period determined using the treasury stock method.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The following Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) were issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) which relate to or could relate to the Company as concerns the Company’s normal ongoing operations or the industry in which the Company operates.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03 Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40):Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU requires public business entities to disclose, for interim and annual reporting periods, additional information about certain income statement expense categories. The requirements are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Entities are permitted to apply either the prospective or retrospective transition methods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740):Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The standard requires entities to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and to provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. It also requires entities to disclose certain information about income taxes paid and other disclosures related to income and income tax expense from continuing operations. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 for public business entities and for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025 for all other entities. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic280):Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures to update reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The adoption of this guidance did not have any impact on the Company’s segment reporting.

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative” (“ASU 2023-06”). This ASU incorporates certain SEC disclosure requirements into the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). The amendments in the ASU are expected to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of ASC Topics, allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the requirements, and align the requirements in the ASC with the SEC’s regulations. The ASU has an unusual effective date and transition requirements since it is contingent on future SEC rule setting. If the SEC fails to enact required changes by June 30, 2027, this ASU is not effective for any entities. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statement
