Note 1: Background

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ALT5 Sigma Corporation, a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “ALT5”). Effective July 15, 2024, the Company changed its corporate name from “JanOne Inc.” to “ALT5 Sigma Corporation,” and also changed its Nasdaq common stock ticker symbol from “JAN” to “ALTS”. The corporate name change was effected through a parent/subsidiary short-form merger of ALT5 Sigma Corporation, the Company’s wholly-owned Nevada subsidiary formed solely for the purpose of effectuating the name change), whereby it merged with and into the Company, with the Company being the surviving entity, albeit with its new name.

The Company had three operating segments – Fintech, Biotechnology, and Corporate and Other.

Fintech

On May 15, 2024, the Company acquired ALT5 Sigma, Inc. (“ALT5 Subsidiary”). ALT5 Subsidiary is a fintech company that provides next generation blockchain-powered technologies to enable a migration to a new global financial paradigm. ALT5 Subsidiary, through its respective subsidiaries, offers two main platforms to its customers: “ALT5 Pay” and “ALT5 Prime.” ALT5 Pay is a crypto-currency payment gateway that enables registered and approved global merchants to accept and make crypto-currency payments or to integrate the ALT5 Pay payment platform into their application or operations using the plugin with WooCommerce and or ALT5 Pay’s checkout widgets and APIs. Merchants have the option to convert to fiat currency (US Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros, and British Pounds Sterling) automatically or to receive their payment in digital assets (see Note 3).

Biotechnology

During September 2019, ALT5 Sigma Corporation, through its biotechnology segment, broadened its business perspectives to become a pharmaceutical company focused on finding treatments for conditions that cause severe pain and bringing to market drugs with non-addictive pain-relieving properties. Effective December 28, 2022, the Company acquired Soin Therapeutics LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“STLLC”), and its product, a patent-pending, novel formulation of low-dose naltrexone, (“JAN123”). The product is being developed for the treatment of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), an indication that causes severe, chronic pain generally affecting the arms or legs. At present, there are no truly effective treatments for CRPS. Because of the relatively small number of patients afflicted with CRPS, the FDA has granted Orphan Drug Designation for any product approved for treatment of CRPS. This designation will provide the Company with tax credits for its clinical trials, exemption of user fees, and the potential of seven years of market exclusivity following approval. In addition, development of orphan drugs currently also involves smaller trials and quicker times to approval, given the limited number of patients available to study. However, there can be no assurance that the product will receive FDA approval or that it will result in material sales. In that regard, we have previously announced our intention to capitalize a subsidiary with certain of our biotechnology assets, acquire an additional biotechnology asset, and then engage in a financing of that subsidiary. The short-term intended result of that series of transactions would be for us to own a controlling interest in that subsidiary, but to decouple it from us so that it would operate on a stand-alone basis.

Corporate and Other

Our Corporate and Other segment consists of certain corporate general and administrative costs.

The Company reports on a 52- or 53-week fiscal year. The Company’s 2024 fiscal year (“2024”) ended on December 28, 2024, and the current fiscal year (“2025”) will end on December 27, 2025.

Going concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. Such assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business, however, the issues described below raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so.

The Company currently faces a challenging competitive environment and is focused on improving its overall profitability and liquidity, which includes managing expenses. The Company reported a net loss of approximately $2.9 million for the 13 weeks ended March 29, 2025. Additionally, as of March 29, 2025, the Company has total current assets of approximately $31.8 million and total current liabilities of approximately $38.2 million resulting in a net negative working capital of approximately $6.4 million. Cash used in operations was approximately $1.5 million.

Table of Contents

The Company intends to raise funds to support future development of JAN 123 and JAN 101 and through a combination of cash flows derived from its acquisition of ALT5 (see Note 3), capital raises, and/or structured arrangements. However, the success of such funding cannot be assured. The Company currently expects that the biotechnology subsidiary transaction discussed above will allow us to finance our Phase III clinical trial for JAN123. No assurance can be given any financing obtained may not further dilute or otherwise impair the ownership interest of our existing stockholders or our ownership interest in the to-be-effectuated biotechnology subsidiary. The short-term intended result of that transaction would be for us to own a controlling interest in that subsidiary, but to decouple it from us so that it would operate on a stand-alone basis.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required for complete financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. In our opinion, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. However, the Company’s results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2024.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumption that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant estimates made in connection with the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the fair value in connection with the Series S convertible preferred stock issued in the Soin merger, valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, and estimated useful lives for intangible assets.

Financial Instruments

Financial instruments consist primarily of cash, trade and other receivables, and obligations under accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable. The carrying amounts of trade and other receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term notes payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Digital Assets and other Receivables

Digital assets and other receivables are the Company’s digital assets and its customer prepayments in the form of digital assets. The Company holds all digital assets in secure non-custodial wallets through the wallet services from Fireblocks. As of March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the outstanding balance of digital assets and other receivables was approximately $14.5 million and $23.8 million, respectively.

Digital Assets and other Payables

Digital assets and other payables are liabilities that represent the Company’s obligation to deliver the settlement of transactions in the form of digital assets and or cash. The Company safeguards these digital assets and cash for customers and is obligated to safeguard them from loss, theft, or other misuse. The Company recognizes digital assets and other payables, on initial recognition and at each reporting date, at fair value of the digital assets. Any loss, theft, or other misuse would impact the measurement of digital assets and other payables. As of March 29, 2025, the outstanding balance of digital assets and other payables was approximately $25.2 million, of which approximately $14.5 was digital assets and $10.6 was cash deposits. As of December 28, 2024, the outstanding balance of digital assets and other payables was approximately $30.9 million, of which approximately $23.8 million was digital assets and $7.1 million was cash deposits.

Table of Contents

Revenue Recognition

Revenue recognition applies to the Company’s Fintech segment only, as the Company’s Biotech segment has not recognized revenue to date. Revenue is recognized under Topic 606 in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of its services and products to customers in return for expected consideration and includes the following elements:

1.Executed contracts with the Company’s customers that it believes are legally enforceable;

2.Identification of performance obligations in the respective contract;

3.Determination of the transaction price for each performance obligation in the respective contract;

4.Allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation; and

5.Recognition of revenue only when the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

These five elements, as applied to each of the Company’s revenue category, is summarized below:

1.Product sales – revenue is recognized at the time of sale of equipment to the customer.

2.Service sales – revenue is recognized based on when the service has been provided to the customer.

The Company’s service is comprised of a single performance obligation to buy and sell or convert digital assets to currencies. That is, the Company is the counter party to all transactions between customers and liquidity providers and presents revenue for the fees earned on a net basis.

The Company is acting as principal in all transactions, and control the digital assets being provided before it is transferred to the buyer, and has risk related to the digital assets, and is responsible for the fulfillment of the digital asset transactions. The Company sets the price for the digital assets by aggregating prices from several liquidity providers and displays them on the Company’s platform. As a result, the Company acts as a price discovery service and acts as a principal facilitating the ability for a customer to purchase or sell digital assets.

The Company considers its performance obligation satisfied, and recognizes revenue, at the point in time the transaction is processed. Contracts with customers are usually open-ended and can be terminated by either party without a termination penalty. Therefore, contracts are defined at the transaction level and do not extend beyond the service already provided.

The Company charges a fee at the transaction level. The transaction price, represented by the trading fee, is calculated based on volume and varies depending on payment type and the value of the transaction. Digital asset purchases or sale transactions executed by a customer on the Company’s platform is based on tiered pricing that is driven primarily by transaction volume processed for a specific historical period. The Company has concluded that this volume-based pricing approach does not constitute a future material right since the discount is within a range typically offered to a class of customers with similar volume. The transaction fee is collected from the customer at the time the transaction is executed. In certain instances, the transaction fee can be collected in digital assets, with revenue measured based on the amount of digital assets received and the fair value of the digital assets at the time of the transaction. The Company also marks up or down the digital asset prices and earns revenue from the spread between the buying and selling price. The Company also earns a fee from transfers of currencies and or digital assets. The transfer fees are nominal and are set to offset the fees associated with banking and or blockchain mining fees.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company from time to time grants stock options to employees, non-employees and Company executives and directors. Such awards are valued based on the grant date fair-value of the instruments. The value of each award is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"). ASU 2023-07 requires, among other updates, enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM, as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and requires retrospective adoption. Early adoption is permitted.

Table of Contents

The Company does not anticipate this guidance will have a material impact upon its financial position and results of operations.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 requires enhanced annual disclosures regarding the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and may be adopted on a prospective or retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 3: Mergers and Acquisitions

Qoden

On November 8, 2024, the Company acquired the Qodex Cryptocurrency Exchange Software platform and other related assets from Qoden Technologies, LLC, a provider of technology solutions for the blockchain industry. The purchase price was $2.2 million, consisting of $2.0 million, or 771,010 shares, of the Company’s Series Q Convertible Preferred Stock and $0.2 million in cash. The Series Q Convertible Stock was valued at $2.594 per share on the date issued, and is subject to a mandatory eight-calendar-quarter leak-out, such that no more than twelve-and-one-half percent of the shares may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock on a trailing quarterly basis over a period of two years, and are subject to vesting provisions. The $0.2 million in cash is payable in increments of $10,000 per month for 24 months, commencing on the first day of the month following closing. The acquisition was determined to be an asset acquisition for accounting purposes.

ALT5

On May 14, 2024, the Company acquired its ALT5 Subsidiary, which is a fintech company that provides next generation blockchain-powered technologies to enable a migration to a new global financial paradigm. ALT5 Subsidiary, through its respective subsidiaries, offers two main platforms to its customers: “ALT5 Pay” and “ALT5 Prime.” ALT5 Pay is a crypto-currency payment gateway that enables registered and approved global merchants to accept and make crypto-currency payments or to integrate the ALT5 Pay payment platform into their application or operations using the plugin with WooCommerce and or ALT5 Pay’s checkout widgets and APIs. Merchants have the option to convert to fiat currency (US Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros, and British Pounds Sterling) automatically or to receive their payment in digital assets.

As consideration under the acquisition, the Company issued 1,799,100 shares of its common stock to the legacy equity holders of the capital stock of ALT5 Subsidiary. Those shares represented approximately 19.9% of the Company's then-issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Each of the shares of the Company's newly-issued common stock was valued at $4.14, which was the Nasdaq Historical NOCP on Thursday, May 9, 2024, the day immediately prior to the date on which the agreement was executed. The Company also issued 34,207 shares of its newly-designated Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Stock”) to the legacy equity holders of the capital stock of ALT5. In connection with the closing of the acquisition of ALT5 Subsidiary, the Company also issued 3,200 shares of its newly-designated Series M Preferred Stock (the “Series M Stock”) to two entities that acted as finders for the transaction.

The fair value of the purchase price components outlined above was $16.0 million due to fair value adjustments for the shares of Series B Stock and Series M Stock, as detailed below (in $000’s):


Common stock	$	7,448
Series B preferred stock	8,552
Total purchase price	$	16,000

Under the preliminary purchase price allocation, the Company recognized goodwill of approximately $11.7 million, which is calculated as the excess of both the consideration exchanged and liabilities assumed as compared to the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired. The values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on their estimates of fair value available as of May 10, 2024, as calculated by an independent third-party firm. Because the transaction was considered a stock purchase for tax purposes, none of the goodwill arising from the acquisition will be deductible for tax purposes. During the year ended December 28, 2024, the Company recorded a noncash fair value adjustment related to deferred tax liabilities and other liabilities acquired in the aggregate amount of approximately $7.9 million, which was

Note 7: Leases

In connection with its acquisition of ALT5 Subsidiary (see Note 3), the Company leases commercial office space. These assets and properties are leased under noncancelable agreements that expire at various future dates. The agreements, which have been classified as operating leases, provide for minimum rent and require the Company to pay all insurance, taxes, and other maintenance costs. As a result, the Company recognizes assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms greater than 12 months. The amounts recognized reflect the present value of remaining lease payments for all leases. The discount rate used is an estimate of the Company’s blended incremental borrowing rate based on information available associated with each subsidiary’s debt outstanding at lease commencement. In considering the lease asset value, the Company considers fixed and variable payment terms, prepayments and options to extend, terminate or purchase. Renewal, termination, or purchase options affect the lease term used for determining lease asset value only if the option is reasonably certain to be exercised.

The following table details the Company’s right of use assets and lease liabilities as of March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024 (in $000’s):


	March 29, 2025		December 28, 2024
Right of use asset - operating leases	$	116	$	121
Lease liabilities:
Current - operating	18		10
Long term - operating	107		113

As of March 29, 2025, the weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases is 4.67 years. The Company’s weighted average discount rate for operating leases is 12.8%. Total cash payments for operating leases for the 13 weeks ended March 29, 2025 was approximately $2,700. No cash payments for operating leases were made during the 13 weeks ended March 30, 2024. Additionally, the Company recognized approximately no right of use assets or lease liabilities during the 13 weeks ended March 29, 2025.

The Debentures are unsecured and subordinated to any existing or future debt. The Debentures bear interest at a rate of (i) 1% per month from and after August 20, 2024 (“Original Issue Date”) through and including October 31, 2024, (ii) 3% per month from and after November 1, 2024 through and including January 29, 2025, and (iii) 4% per month from and after January 30, 2025 through and including the date of repayment.

The Big Debenture was issued with an original issue discount (an “OID”) initially of $171,000, which OID can be expanded with up to two potential additions, the first in the amount of $171,000 and, thereafter, in the amount of $342,000, which OIDs will increase the principal amount owing on the Big Debenture. With the original OID, the initial principal amount owing under the Big Debenture is approximately $1.3 million; if, expanded, the principal amount would increase to approximately $1.4 million and, thereafter, potentially to approximately $1.8 million. The first potential increase in the Big Debenture OID would occur if the initial principal amount and interest accrued thereon is not paid in full on or before October 31, 2024. The second potential increase in the OID would occur if the initial principal amount (including the first potential increase in the OID) and interest accrued thereon is not paid in full on or before January 29, 2025.

The Small Debentures were issued with an OID initially of $38,863, which OID can be expanded with up to two potential additions, the first in the amount of $38,863 and, thereafter, in the amount of $77,728, which OIDs will increase the principal amount owing on the Small Debentures. With the original OID, the initial principal amount owing under a Small Debenture is $288,864; if, expanded, the principal amount would increase to $327,726 and, thereafter, potentially to $404,454. The first potential increase in the Small Debenture OID would occur if the initial principal amount and interest accrued thereon is not paid in full on or before October 31, 2024. The second potential increase in the OID would occur if the initial principal amount (including the first potential increase in the OID) and interest accrued thereon is not paid in full on or before January 29, 2025.

As of November 1, 2024, the first of the two additional OIDs was effective. The final maturity date for each of the Debentures is April 28, 2025.

The Big Warrant is exercisable, at an exercise price of $1.71 per share, as follows: (i) 100,000 shares of Common Stock as of Original Issue Date, (ii) contingently for an additional 100,000 shares of Common Stock as of October 31, 2024, if, as of such date, the Company has not repaid in full its obligations under the Big Debenture, and (iii) contingently for an additional 200,000 shares of Common Stock as of January 29, 2025, if, as of such date, the Company has not repaid in full its obligations under the Big Debenture.

As of November 1, 2024, the contingent second tranche of the Warrants vested.

Each Investor is required to exercise the initial tranche of each Warrant within 15 days of the Original Issue Date. Upon the vesting of each contingent tranche of a Warrant vest, each Investor shall exercise such vested, contingent tranche within 15 days of the vesting of such contingent tranche. If the Company consummates any equity or debt financing before satisfying in full its obligations under the Debentures, then 50% of every net dollar received by the Company from any such financing transaction shall be paid by the Company to the holders of the Debentures, on a pro rata basis, as a mandatory pre-payment thereof. In the event the Company has repaid all sums owing under a Debenture to the Investor, except for an amount equal to any non-conditional OID, the Company has the right, not the obligation, to exercise the vested portion of the Warrant held by the Debenture holder through a set-off of any or all such unpaid OID, on a dollar-for-dollar basis. The Warrants also feature a “cashless” exercise provision. In lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon exercise of a Warrant in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to a formula set forth in the Warrant.

During the quarter ended March 29, 2025, one of the two non-affiliated Investors exercised the remainder of the Small Warrant for a total of 45,455 shares (see Note 14).

Sieggreen

In a matter pending in the United States District Court for the District Of Nevada, Case No. 2:21-cv-01517-CDS-EJY, styled as Sieggreen, Individually and On Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated, Plaintiff, v. Live Ventures Incorporated, Jon Isaac, and Virland A. Johnson, Defendants, the Company was added as a defendant on March 6, 2023, and was served on March 23, 2023. Plaintiff has alleged causes of action against the Company for (i) violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder and (ii) violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rules 10b-5(a) and 10b-5(c) promulgated thereunder. In June 2023 the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss, regarding which, as of the date of these financial statements, the Court has not ruled. The Company strongly disputes and denies all of the allegations contained therein and will continue to defend itself vigorously against the claims.

Main/270

The Company is a defendant in an action filed on April 11, 2022, in the U.S. District Court Southern District of Ohio, Eastern Division, styled, Trustees Main/270, LLC, Plaintiff, vs ApplianceSmart, Inc. and JANONE, Inc., Defendant, Case no.: 2:22-cv-01938-ALM-EPD. The Company was a guarantor of the lease between the Plaintiff and ApplianceSmart, Inc. Plaintiff alleged a cause of action against the Company in respect of the guaranty and seeks approximately $90,000 therefor. Plaintiff also seeks approximately $1,420,000 against ApplianceSmart and the Company on a joint and several basis. The Company does not believe that it is obligated to Plaintiff in that amount and the parties continue to negotiate a potential settlement.

Other Commitments

On December 30, 2017, the Company disposed of its retail appliance segment and sold ApplianceSmart to Live Ventures, a related party. In connection with that sale, as of January 1, 2022, the Company accrued an aggregate amount of future real property lease payments of approximately $767,000 which represented amounts guaranteed or which may have been owed under certain lease agreements to three third party landlords in which the Company either remained the counterparty, was a guarantor, or had agreed to remain contractually liable under the lease (“ApplianceSmart Leases”). A final decree was issued by the court on February 28, 2022, upon the full satisfaction of the Plan, at which time ApplianceSmart emerged from Chapter 11. During the year ended December 28, 2024, the Company reversed approximately $637,000 of the accrual, as the Company is no longer liable for two of these guarantees upon ApplianceSmart's emergence from bankruptcy. As of December 28, 2024, a balance of approximately $130,000 remains as an accrued liability due to an

ongoing dispute concerning one of the leases. The Company and Live Ventures have agreed to divide in half between them any ultimate balance owing thereunder and any attorneys’ fees expended in relation thereto.

The Company is party from time to time to other ordinary course disputes that we do not believe to be material to our financial condition as of March 29, 2025.

Note 16: Earnings Per Share

Net income (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Basic weighted average common shares outstanding do not include shares of restricted stock that have not yet vested, although such shares are included as outstanding shares in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the additional common shares issuable in respect of restricted share awards, stock options and convertible preferred stock.

The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share (in $000’s, except share and per–share data):


	For the Thirteen Weeks Ended
	March 29, 2025		March 30, 2024



















Basic and diluted
Net loss	$	(2,861)	$	(2,144)
Weighted average common shares outstanding	15,550,706		6,308,331
Basic and diluted loss per share	$	(0.18)	$	(0.34)

Potentially dilutive securities totaling approximately 8.9 million and 3.8 million were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the 13 weeks ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, respectively, because the effects were anti-dilutive.

Note 17: Income Taxes

The Company recorded an income tax provision of approximately $285,000 for the 13 weeks ended March 29, 2025, and an income tax benefit of $75,000 for the 13 weeks ended March 30, 2024.

Note 20: Subsequent event

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing of this Form 10-Q, and determined that there have been no events that have occurred that would require adjustments to disclosures in its condensed consolidated financial statements other than as discussed below:

Mswipe Transaction

Effective on May 9, 2025, we and our indirect, wholly-owned second tier Canadian subsidiary entered into an agreement to purchase all of the outstanding capital stock of an entity that, through its subsidiaries, offers multi-currency, fiat- and crypto-enabled payment card services. The business trades under the name Mswipe. Through a suite of physical and virtual cards that are available on both the Visa® and Mastercard® networks, the acquired operations enable users seamlessly to spend traditional and digital currencies across the globe. The acquired platform is built with robust compliance frameworks, advanced security protocols, and real-time exchange capabilities, which allow for fast, secure, and borderless transactions. This is a B2B solution, which, when combined with our current solutions, bridges the gap between the crypto economy and traditional financial systems—while ensuring regulatory alignment, interoperability with existing payment networks, and a seamless user experience for institutional partners and their end-users.

The purchase price for this transaction consisted of our (i) issuing one million restricted shares of our common stock to the three sellers, valued at the Historical NOCP on May 9, 2025 of $6.10, (ii) granting five hundred thousand four-year common stock warrants to the three sellers, with a per-share exercise price of $5.50 (which was the approximate market price at the time that we reached an agreement in principal for this transaction), (iii) issuing shares to two of the sellers in “Alyea Therapeutics Corporation,” our biotech business that we are in process of separating from our core business, which shares we valued at $4.8 million, and (iv) issuing two 14-month straight promissory notes in the aggregate initial principal balance of approximately one million dollars with an interest rate at the AFR for quarterly compounded notes of 3.99% per annum and all principal and interest due at the maturity date. We also are acknowledging an equivalent 14-month term straight promissory note at the acquired company level that pre-dated our acquisition. The principal balance as of May 9, 2025 was approximately $5.1 million and the interest was reset to match that of the two notes that we issued. We also granted the sellers the right to one earn-out payment in the amount of $20 million (payable in cash or unregistered shares of our common stock) right if the Operating Subsidiaries generate a minimum of $15 million in annualized or actual total revenue from the assets owned by the Operating subsidiaries at May 9, 2025. Please see Exhibit 10.120 for the specific calculation modalities of the earn-out payments. None of the shares of our common stock, the shares underlying the common stock purchase warrants, and the shares of common stock of Alyea has any registration or equivalent rights.

The foregoing brief summary description of certain terms and provisions of (i) the purchase of the business that trades under the name Mswipe and the related covenant against competition do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Share Purchase Agreement by and among ALT5 Sigma Corporation, ALT 5 Sigma, Inc., and the selling parties and related interest holders signatory thereto, in respect of the “Mswipe transaction”, dated May 9, 2025, and the form of Covenant Against Competition Agreement, a copy of each of which is filed as an exhibit to this Quarterly Report as Exhibit 10.120 and Exhibit 10.121, respectively, (ii) the form of Common Stock Purchase Agreement, granted May 9, 2025 in connection with the Mwsipe transaction, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this Quarterly Report as Exhibit 10.122; and (iii) the form of the 14-month Straight Promissory Note issued in connection with the “Mswipe transaction”, dated May 9, 2025, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of our management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and certain other factors that may affect our future results. Dollars stated in thousands, except per–share amounts.

Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which involve risks and uncertainties. You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as ‘‘believes,’’ ‘‘expects,’’ ‘‘may,’’ ‘‘will,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘seeks,’’ ‘‘approximately,’’ ‘‘intends,’’ ‘‘plans,’’ ‘‘estimates’’ or ‘‘anticipates’’ or similar expressions that concern our strategy, plans or intentions. Any statements we make relating to our future operations, performance and results, and anticipated liquidity are forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, and, therefore, our actual results may differ materially from those we expected. We derive most of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, including, without limitation, in conjunction with the forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q, are disclosed in “Item 1-Business, Item 1A – Risk Factors” of our Form 10-K and Part II, Item 1A of this Form 10-Q.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law. Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with our Form 10-K (including the information presented therein under the caption Risk Factors), together with our Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q and other publicly available information. All amounts herein are unaudited.

Our Company

Through our Fintech segment, we provide next generation blockchain-powered technologies to enable a migration to a new global financial paradigm, and, through our Biotechnology segment, we are focused on finding treatments for conditions that cause chronic pain and bringing to market drugs with non-addictive and non-sedative pain-relieving properties.

During the periods disclosed in this Quarterly Report, we operated three reportable segments:

•Fintech: Our Fintech segment provides next generation blockchain-powered technologies for tokenization, trading, clearing, settlement, payment, and safe-keeping of digital assets

•Biotechnology: Our Biotechnology segment is focused on finding treatments for conditions that cause severe pain and bringing to market drugs with non-addictive pain-relieving properties. We have previously announced our intention to capitalize a subsidiary with certain of our biotechnology assets, acquire an additional biotechnology asset, and then engage in a financing of that subsidiary. The short-term intended result of that series of transactions would be for to decouple it from us so that it would operate on a stand-alone basis.

•Corporate and Other: Our Corporate and Other segment consists of certain corporate general and administrative costs.

Adjusted EBITDA

We evaluate the performance of our operations based on financial measures such as “Adjusted EBITDA”, which is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and other non-cash or nonrecurring charges. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of the business, including the business’ ability to fund acquisitions and other capital expenditures, and to service its debt. Additionally, this measure is used by management to evaluate operating results and perform analytical comparisons and identify strategies to improve performance. Adjusted EBITDA is also a measure that is customarily used by financial analysts to evaluate a company's financial performance, subject to certain adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA does not represent cash flows from operations, as defined by U.S. GAAP, and should not be construed as an alternative to net income or loss and is indicative

Table of Contents

neither of our results of operations, nor of cash flows available to fund all our cash needs. It is, however, a measurement that the Company believes is useful to investors in analyzing its operating performance. Accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, net income, cash flow provided by operating activities, and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. As companies often define non-U.S. GAAP financial measures differently, Adjusted EBITDA, as calculated by the Company, should not be compared to any similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

As of March 29, 2025, our cash on hand was $10.8 million. We intend to raise funds to support future development of JAN 123 either through capital raises or structured arrangements, which would include effectuating our previously announced intention to capitalize a subsidiary with certain of our biotechnology assets, acquire an additional biotechnology asset, and then engage in a financing of that subsidiary. The short-term intended result of that series of transactions would be for us to own a controlling interest in that subsidiary, but to decouple it from us so that it would operate on a stand-alone basis, although its financial statements would continue to be consolidated with ours for as long as we have a controlling interest.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the success of future capital raises or structured settlements and cash flows from the acquisition of ALT5 Subsidiary to fund the required testing to obtain FDA approval of JAN 123, as well as to fund our day-to-day operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. While we will actively pursue these additional sources of financing, management cannot make any assurances that such financing will be secured.

Cash Flows

During the 13 weeks ended March 29, 2025, cash used in operations was approximately $1.5 million, compared to cash provided by operations of approximately $544,000 during the 13 weeks ended March 30, 2024. The decrease in cash was primarily due to results of operations as discussed above.

Cash used in investing activities was $0 for the 13 weeks ended March 29, 2025 and the 13 weeks ended March 30, 2024.

Cash provided by financing activities was $1.5 million for the 13 weeks ended March 29, 2025, and relates to proceeds received from the issuance of notes payable, as well as warrants converted to our common stock, partially offset by cash paid for notes payable. Cash used in financing activities was approximately $600,000 for the 13 weeks ended March 30, 2024, and relates to proceeds received from warrants converted to our common stock.

Sources of Liquidity

We acknowledge that we continue to face a challenging competitive environment as we continue to focus on our overall profitability, including managing expenses. We reported a net loss of approximately $2.1 million for the 13 weeks ended March 29, 2025, and a net loss of approximately $2.9 million for the 13 weeks ended March 30, 2024, primarily due to increased costs associated with the acquisition ALT5 Subsidiary. Additionally, the Company has total current assets of approximately $31.8 million and total current liabilities of approximately $38.2 million resulting in a net negative working capital of approximately $6.4 million. Cash used in operations was approximately $1.5 million.

Future Sources of Cash; Phase 2b Trials, New Acquisitions, Products, and Services

We may require additional debt financing and/or capital to finance new acquisitions, conduct our Phase IIb clinical trials, or consummate other strategic investments in our business. No assurance can be given any financing obtained may not further dilute or otherwise impair the ownership interest of our existing stockholders.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market Risk and Impact of Inflation

Interest Rate Risk. We do not believe there is any significant risk related to interest rate fluctuations on our short and long-term fixed rate debt.

We do not hold any derivative financial instruments, nor do we hold any securities for trading or speculative purposes.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure control and Procedures. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded,

Table of Contents

processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure..

Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of March 29, 2025, the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the material weaknesses discussed below.

In light of the conclusion that our internal disclosure controls are ineffective as of March 29, 2025, we have applied procedures and processes as necessary to ensure the reliability of our financial reporting in regard to this Quarterly Report. Accordingly, the Company believes, based on its knowledge, that: (i) this Quarterly Report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit a material fact; and (ii) the financial statements, and other financial information included in this Quarterly Report, fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in this Quarterly Report.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)). Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 29, 2025. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in 2013 regarding Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment using those criteria, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 29, 2025.

Management noted material weaknesses in internal control when conducting their evaluation of internal control as of March 29, 2025. (1) Insufficient written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; and (2) Insufficient resources to maintain adequate segregation of duties and maintain its internal control environment.

These material weaknesses remained outstanding as of the filing date of this Form 10-Q and management is currently working to remedy these outstanding material weaknesses.

The Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures or the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, regardless of how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be met. These inherent limitations include the following: judgements in decision-making can be faulty, and control and process breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes, controls can be circumvented by individuals, acting alone or in collusion with each other, or by management override, the design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal year ended March 29, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
