Edgemode, Inc.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Edgemode, Inc. (“we”, “our”, “Edgemode” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2024, as reported in the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 of the Company, have been omitted.
NOTE 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term.
Principals of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Edgemode, Inc., the accounts of its 100% owned subsidiaries, Edgemode and Edgemode Mine Co UK Limited. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Segments Reporting
The Company manages its operations as a single segment for the purpose of assessing performance and making operating decisions. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is its executive management committee. The CODM allocates resources and evaluates the performance of the Company using information about net income from operations. All significant operating decisions are based upon an analysis of the Company as one operating segment, which is the same as its reporting segment. The Company will continue to evaluate for segments as it expands its operations.
Fair Value Measurements
Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price) and such principles also establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value using the following definitions (from highest to lowest priority):
· | Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. | |
· | Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. | |
· | Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques requiring inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. |
7 |
The following fair value hierarchy tables present information about the Company’s liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
Fair Value Measurements at March 31, 2025 | ||||||||||||
Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | ||||||||||
Liabilities: | ||||||||||||
Derivative liabilities | $ | $ | $ |
Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2024 | ||||||||||||
Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | ||||||||||
Liabilities: | ||||||||||||
Derivative liabilities | $ | $ | $ |
The Company had no assets valued using level 1, level 2, or level 3 inputs as of March 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024.
Derivative Financial Instruments
Derivatives are measured at their fair value on the balance sheet. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses a binomial calculator model. Changes in fair value are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This standard provides a single comprehensive model to be used in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The standard’s stated core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, ASC 606 includes provisions within a five-step model that includes identifying the contract with a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.
Our High Performance Computing (“HPC”) hosting operations will generate revenue by providing colocation, cloud, and connectivity services to customers in exchange for a fee. The HPC hosting operation provides colocation, facilities operations, security, and other services to third-party HPC customers to support workloads for machine learning and artificial intelligence. The Company has not yet generated any revenue as of March 31, 2025.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation (ASC 718) and Equity-Based Payments to Non-employees pursuant to ASC 2018-07 (ASC 2018-07). All transactions in which the consideration provided in exchange for the purchase of goods or services consists of the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty’s performance is complete or the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached because of sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to our prior year’s consolidated financial statements to conform to our current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on our previously reported results of operations or accumulated deficit.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets (“ASU 2023-08”). This ASU is intended to improve the accounting for certain crypto assets by requiring an entity to measure those crypto assets at fair value each reporting period with changes in fair value recognized in net income. The amendments also improve the information provided to investors about an entity’s crypto asset holdings by requiring disclosure about significant holdings, contractual sale restrictions, and changes during the reporting period. ASU 2023-08 requires a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earning as of the beginning of the annual reporting period in which the entity adopts the amendment and is effective for all reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2025. As a result of the de minimis balances of cryptocurrencies held as of December 31, 2024 and the current fair value as of March 31, 2025, the Company recorded all changes in fair value in the current period with no cumulative effect on the opening balance of retained earnings.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which expands the disclosures required for income taxes. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendment should be applied on a prospective basis while retrospective application is permitted. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2025, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Clarifying the Effective Date (“ASU 2025-01”). The amendments are intended to enhance disclosures regarding an entity’s costs and expenses by requiring additional disaggregated information disclosures about certain income statement expense line items. The amendments, as clarified by ASU 2025-01, are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on its disclosures.
NOTE 3 – Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At March 31, 2025, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations and expects to incur further losses as it has suspended its operations until such time, if any, that the Company receives adequate funding, all of which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. See “Note 11. Subsequent Events.” The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern.

The investors may in their option, at any time following the 180-day anniversary from the issuance date, as defined in the Promissory Notes, convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount of the Promissory Notes into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock. If the Promissory Notes are not repaid on or prior to the maturity date, the conversion price will be $0.20 or 50% of the preceding five-day VWAP on the six-month anniversary, whichever is lower, subject to a floor conversion price of $0.01 per share. Furthermore, the Promissory Notes contain a “most favored nation” provision that allows each investor to claim any preferable terms from any future securities, excluding certain exempt issuances.
NOTE 8 – Derivative Liabilities
The fair values of the conversion option of outstanding convertible notes payable and common stock warrants were determined to be derivative liabilities under ASC 815 due to the default on convertible notes payable disclosed above, which resulted in a variable conversion price on the outstanding convertible note payable. The fair value of the derivative liabilities was estimated using a binomial model with the following assumptions:
As of March 31, 2025 | ||||||||
Conversion Option | Warrants | |||||||
Volatility | ||||||||
Dividend Yield | ||||||||
Risk-free rate | ||||||||

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the notes thereto, and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. The following discussion and analysis compares our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 (the “2025 Quarter”) with those for the three months ended March 31, 2024 (the “2024 Quarter”).
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains “forward-looking statements.” These statements include, among other things, statements regarding expanding our business and our liquidity as well as other statements regarding our future operations, financial condition and prospects, and business strategies. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “predicts,” “projects,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, our ability to raise capital to buy crypto mining machines we have commitments to purchase, regulatory issues which affect our business model, and those discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and those discussed in other documents we file with the SEC. We undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.
Business Overview
Edgemode was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada in 2011. Our subsidiary, Edgemode Wyoming, was incorporated in the State of Wyoming in March 2020. Between 2021 and 2023, we attempted to become a key figure in Bitcoin mining but lacked the necessary funding to finance the purchase of Bitcoin mining hardware and hosting contracts. As a result, since late 2023 and throughout 2024, our business activities primarily consisted of identifying and evaluating suitable acquisition transaction candidates, which led to transition from cryptocurrency mining to digital infrastructure colocation services and HPC hosting.
Effective April 7, 2025, Edgemode, SAPL, and ACL closed on the Share Exchange dated April 7, 2025. In accordance with the Share Exchange, SAPL agreed to transfer 100% of SAPL’s outstanding capital stock to Edgemode in exchange for 1,260,246,354 shares of Edgemode common stock, par value $0.001 per share, which represented approximately 55% of the Company’s outstanding common stock at the Effective Time. The Company accounted for the acquisition as an asset acquisition under ASC 805 as SAPL did not meet the definition of a business as it did not contain a full set of integrated inputs and outputs at the time of closing.
Following the closing of the Share Exchange, Edgemode, through SAPL, its wholly owned subsidiary, is now designing, building, and operating digital infrastructure for HPC with the goal of becoming a leading provider of digital colocation services. SAPL is an entity organized in 2022 under the laws of England and Wales. SAPL will change its name to EdgeMode Europe Limited.
The acquisition of SAPL has positioned us to enter the rapidly evolving HPC hosting market in an efficient and effective manner. The acquisition has enabled us to plan to leverage SAPL’s existing infrastructure and expertise to meet the growing demand for data center facilities for third-party customers focused on cloud computing as well as machine learning and artificial intelligence.
The acquisition of SAPL will enable us to become a premier provider and operator of dedicated, purpose-built data center facilities for our third-party customers. We believe that opportunities for growth exist in various applications of our data centers, which is another factor as to why we decided to begin offering digital infrastructure colocation services to third parties engaged in HPC.
Our goal is to utilize the assets we have acquired via the purchase of SAPL for HPC hosting operations, which will provide consistent dollar-based revenue and which represent substantially less risk than our historical digital asset self-mining operations. Our intent is to focus our business on development and marketing efforts to build data centers and expand our foundational HPC hosting customer base.
17 |
Business Strategy
Our business strategy is to generate revenue and achieve profitability by building large-scale data center infrastructure configured for specialized computers performing specific, high-value applications such as cloud computing, machine learning, and artificial intelligence and maximizing the use of assets acquired in the SAPL acquisition. We intend to strategically develop and to work to make operational the infrastructure necessary to support our contractual commitments to our HPC customers and to support expected customer growth and additional demand by leveraging our data center expertise and capabilities. We intend to seek additional opportunities and to engage additional customers in the HPC hosting market to expand our business using our knowledge, expertise, and existing and future infrastructure where favorable market opportunities exist.
Our strategy is focused on hyperscale cloud-based providers and enterprises, including potential customers that we believe have significant data center infrastructure needs that have not yet been outsourced or will require additional data center space and power to support their growth and their increasing reliance on technology infrastructure in their operations. We believe our capabilities for serving the needs of large hyperscale providers and enterprises will continue to enable us to capitalize on the growing demand for outsourced data center facilities in our markets and in new markets where our customers are located or plan to be located in the future. Our business strategy requires immediate funding of approximately $2,000,000 to enable us to commence our new operations and repay debt, as well as additional significant financing to develop and expand our new operations. There are no assurances that we will raise sufficient capital to execute our business plan or satisfy our liabilities. See the “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and Form 8-K Current Report dated April 8, 2025.
Products and Services
High-Performance Computing Hosting
HPC is a technology that uses clusters of powerful processors that work in parallel to process massive data sets and solve complex problems at extremely high speeds. The proliferation of data, as well as data-intensive and AI enabled applications and use cases, is driving demand for the computing power of HPC. Traditionally, HPC has involved an on-premises infrastructure, investing in supercomputers or computer clusters.
Our HPC hosting revenue will be generated by licensing colocation data center space and related services to a licensee at our Marviken data center. These licensing agreements and orders include lease components, non-lease components (such as power delivery, physical security, maintenance and other billable expenses), as well as non-component elements such as taxes. Under these contracts, customers pay fixed payments (based on electric capacity) and variable payments on a recurring basis. HPC colocation leases may include all or portions of a data center, where customers may also lease office space to support their colocation operations where revenue is primarily based on power usage as well as square footage.
On January 21, 2025, the Company entered into the Master Services Agreement with Cudo, a cloud computing company. Under this agreement, the Company will provide Tier 3 data center hosting infrastructure and colocation services to Cudo. The Master Services Agreement supports a 1 MW capacity during a 5 year term at our Marviken data center and is accompanied by a strict service level agreement to ensure 99% up time which can be terminated early by either party if certain conditions are met. The colocation space is designated for SingularityNet’s 1st modular datacenter container from Ecoblox. The Company will also provide optional smart hands engineering support at an hourly rate of $130 per hour, with a 50% premium for evening and weekend services. In consideration of the services, the Company shall receive electricity fees passed through at a variable base cost multiplied be estimated usage plus an admin charge capped at 5%. The minimum fee increase of 3% is waived for the first 3 years and the annual CPI increase is capped at 2% for the first three years and 5% for the final two years. The monthly rental payable is $75,887. On February 18, 2025, an initial payment of $303,549 was made to the Company consisting of a $227,661 deposit, which is refundable at the end of the term of the Master Services Agreement, and the first month’s rental payment of $75,887. The initial payment was primarily used to buildout the data center, including installing electrical and other infrastructure in order to support Cudo’s hardware through the advance of $183,000 to SAPL. The Master Services Agreement term commenced on April 8, 2025 when Cudo’s hardware was delivered to our data center.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We discuss the material accounting policies that are critical in making the estimates and judgments in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.” There has been no material change in critical accounting policies or estimates during the period covered by this report.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For information on recent accounting pronouncements and impacts, see Note 1 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
Results of operations
Our operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 (the “2025 Quarter”) was $22,115,041 compared to $336,599, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 (the “2024 Quarter”), an increase of 6,470%. In the 2025 Quarter, the Company incurred stock-based compensation expense of $21,679,711 compared to $0 for the 2024 Quarter. The stock-based compensation for the 2025 Quarter was related to the amendment of options to the officers of the Company.
Our other income for the 2025 Quarter was $1,243,060 compared to other expense of $114,605 for the 2024 Quarter. Other income in the 2025 quarter was comprised of $11,187 in interest expense and $1,254,247 for the gain on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities. Other expense for the 2024 quarter was comprised of $24,420 in interest expense and $90,185 for the loss on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of May 15, 2025, the Company had approximately $35,000 of cash on hand. Historically, our liquidity was primarily derived from debt and equity investments from accredited investors. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we received an initial payment of approximately $303,000 for colocation services to be provided by the Company. In addition, in April 2025 we sold 38,510,911 shares of restricted common stock to an accredited investor in consideration of $300,000. On April 7, 2025, we executed the Share Exchange with SAPL and, now, we are seeking to raise at least $2,000,000 to commence our HPC hosting operations and generate revenue. We require significant funding to develop our HPC operations. Subject to receiving funding, we expect that our operating expenses will increase as we attempt to develop our new HPC operations and we will devote additional resources toward new business opportunities. However, as set forth elsewhere in this report, our ability to develop our business and achieve our operational goals is dependent upon our ability to raise significant additional working capital. As the availability of this capital is unlikely, at this time, we are unable to quantify the expected increases in operating expenses in future periods.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We are required to maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that the information relating to our company and required to be disclosed in our SEC reports is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures as a result of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting resulting from limited segregation of duties and limited multiple levels of review in the financial close process, along with a lack of well-established policies and procedures to identify, approve, and report related party transactions.
We will continue to monitor our internal control over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow. We do not, however, expect that the material weaknesses in our disclosure controls will be remediated until such time as we have added additional personnel, including additional accounting and administrative staff, allowing improved internal control over financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
