Item 1. Business
Company Overview
Historically, Splash was a portfolio company seeking to manage brands across viable growth segments within the consumer beverage industry. As a result of our lack of capital, we did not generate revenue from February 2025 until March 2026 when we delivered tequila as described below. Our beverage operations have historically not been profitable. Because of our lack of capital to generate revenue, our management reviewed strategic alternatives inside and outside of the beverage industry. As a result, on March 4, 2026 the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent setting forth the principal terms of a potential acquisition of a leading manufacturer and multi-brand operator of federally compliant cannabinoid wellness products. See “Letter of Intent” immediately below for more information. As of the date of this Report, the Company has not entered into a definitive written agreement with respect to such potential transaction. The delay has been caused by a quest to make the acquisition tax-free for the target’s equity holders. Because the process for doing so would delay the closing of the proposed acquisition until late 2026, the Company has agreed to pay additional cash to the target company’s investors to cover their income taxes and reduce the equity component of the acquisition.
Letter of Intent
On March 4, 2026, Splash entered into a letter of intent (the “Letter”) with the target company, Medterra CBD, LLC (“Medterra”), a leading manufacturer and multi-brand operator of federally compliant cannabinoid wellness products. Pursuant to the Letter, the parties agreed in principal on the terms of a potential business combination between Medterra and the Company, which transaction is subject to due diligence and execution of a definitive written agreement and other applicable agreements, receipt of audited financial statements of Medterra and customary closing conditions. In addition, the Company shall be required to raise capital to pay off Medterra’s debt of approximately $10.4 million. The proposed terms for the acquisition reflect an enterprise value of Medterra of $37.6 million or the issuance of approximately 54.4 million shares of Common Stock, which assumes repayment of its outstanding debt and delivery of approximately $10,000,000 in cash to pay off and extinguish the debt of Medterra and to cover the income taxes of the Medterra equity holders. At closing the Company will issue Medterra investors a number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock equal to up to 19.99% of the Company’s Common Stock then outstanding, and the remaining shares will be of two series of convertible preferred stock (“Series X” and “Series X-1”) to be issued to Medterra’s equity holders based on their existing ownership interests in Medterra. The Series X and X-1 shares will convert at $0.50 per share. The Common Stock to be issued at the closing shall have full rights equal to all outstanding Common Stock, except the holders may not vote upon the stockholder approval of the change of control contemplated by the acquisition. The Letter also provides that the Company will issue Series X-1 to Medterra’s lender with the stated value based upon the equity value of Medterra. In exchange the lender shall cancel its warrants to purchase equity of Medterra.
The Company now expects it can close the acquisition of Medterra in May 2026. The closing will be subject to the Company’s planned meetings with investors during the week of April 13 th and its ability to raise the necessary capital as well as reaching a definitive agreement with Medterra and the parties meeting the closing conditions.
Because the Company recently rescinded its June 2025 acquisition of certain water rights in Costa Rica, it derecognized the $20 million of stockholders’ equity which created a stockholders’ deficit of $15,300,828 at December 31, 2025. The NYSE American Rules required us to have at least $6 million in stockholders’ equity. With the expected stockholder’s equity created by the Medterra acquisition, the Company will be in compliance with the NYSE American Rules. The Company is seeking to meet with the NYSE American Staff as soon as possible. There is no assurance that the NYSE American will permit us to maintain the listing of our Common Stock. See Item 1A – “Risk Factors.”
Our Strategy
Our primary focus is to complete the acquisition of Medterra as described above under “Letter of Intent.”
In addition, we are focusing on re-commencing material revenue-generating operations through our beverage business, including through sales of our Chispo Tequila brand subject to obtaining sufficient capital. In the furtherance of this Chispo tequila opportunity, in December 2025 we purchased $50,000 of inventory for the potential Senior Frogs order described under “Chispo Tequila” below.
The Company did not make any sales in the 2025 calendar year after March 2025 due to its lack of capital resources. The Company estimates that it will initially require $3,000,000 for the Chispo brand as well as general and administrative expenses for the next 12 months.
Chispo Tequila
Chispo is a tequila brand which we recently began distributing to one customer. See“Senor Frogs Selection” below. Chispo is an authentic blue agave blanco tequila, with fresh, sweet citrus, herbal floral notes ideal for cocktail mixing. We have entered into an arrangement with the Chispo producer under which we agreed to distribute the brand in certain states in the U.S., as well as in Guatemala and Europe. We expect that we will need approximately $500,000 in new financing to implement this business.
Senior Frogs Selection
In January 2026 the Company announced that Senor Frog’s, an internationally recognized restaurant and entertainment brand known for its vibrant atmosphere and authentic cuisine, selected Chispo Tequila as its house tequila across an initial group of locations in Florida, the Bahamas, and Mexico. Senor Frog’s belongs to Grupo Anderson’s Mexico who owns more than 50 business units and 15 distinct restaurant brands across 4 countries. In March 2026, we shipped initial inventory to a distributor which we expect will permit us to recognize revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
The rollout marks Chispo’s first high-profile national hospitality partner, providing early validation of the brand’s positioning and quality as it begins to scale in the on-premise channel. Senor Frog’s selected Chispo following an extensive evaluation of authentic tequila brands, with a focus on taste profile, consistency, and resonance with its broad and diverse customer base. Chispo’s smooth character and approachable style distinguished it in a competitive field of premium and value-positioned tequilas. Chispo Tequila is produced in Jalisco, Mexico in partnership with ZB Distillery, a respected distilling operation known for its commitment to quality and traditional tequila craftsmanship.
Costa Rica Water
On June 25, 2025, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with a third party (the “Seller”) under which the Seller sold certain water assets located in Costa Rica to the Company in exchange for $20 million of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C”). The Company issued the Series C to the Seller. Section 1.04 of the Asset Purchase Agreement required the Seller to deliver the water assets by December 31, 2025 or pay the Company $20 million in cash. Section 1.04 of the Asset Purchase Agreement further stated that failure to deliver either the water assets or the $20 million by December 31, 2025 rendered the Series C to be “null, void, and of no further force or effect.” The Seller failed to comply with either requirement. As a result, on April 14, 2026, the Board of Directors of the Company terminated the Asset Purchase Agreement and cancelled the Series C effective December 31, 2025.
Competition
We compete with a large variety of other companies in the marketplace for the sale of alcoholic products. The beverage sector is highly competitive, and include international, national, regional and local producers and distributors. Competitive factors in the beverage industry include price and promotional activity, advertising and marketing programs, point-of-sale merchandising, retail space management, customer service, product differentiation, packaging innovations and distribution methods.
Manufacturing and Co-packing
Although we are responsible for manufacturing tequila products, we do not directly manufacture these products, but instead outsource such manufacturing to third party bottlers and contract packers and distillers.
Chispo products are manufactured in Mexico, under contract manufacturing arrangements. These co-packaging arrangements are terminable upon request and do not obligate us to produce any minimum quantities of products within specified periods.
Historically our business strategy has entailed purchasing concentrates, flavors, dietary ingredients, cans, bottles, caps, labels, and other components and ingredients for our beverage products from our suppliers, which are delivered to our manufacturing operations and various third-party bottlers and co-packers. In some cases, certain common supplies may be purchased by our various third-party bottlers and co-packers. Depending on the product, the third-party bottlers or packers add other ingredients for the manufacture and packaging of the finished products into our approved containers in accordance with our formulas.
Distribution
For our beverage-alcohol products, we operated within what is referred to as a “Three Tier Distribution System” where manufacturers are not permitted to sell directly to retailers, but instead contract for local and regional distribution with independent distributors. These distributors typically have geographic rights to distribute major beverage brands and call on every store in a given area such as major cities or regions. Our President and CMO has extensive experience working within this channel and believes that we may be successful in building a strong network of these distributors.
In addition to working with these independent distributors, we also previously established distribution arrangements with national retail accounts.
Employees
We have one full-time employee our President who has extensive experience in the beverage business, one part-time employee, our Chief Financial Officer and a part-time accounting consultant. All of our employees and our consultant work remotely.
