NOTE 14 - Equity Investments

The Company maintains equity investments in companies which are accounted for under the measurement alternative described in ASC 321-10-35-2 for equity securities that lack readily determinable fair values. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $49.6 million of investments accounted for under the measurement alternative. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded a $5.8 million non-cash impairment charge related to the decrease in value of a previously made equity investment.

Unconsolidated VIE

During July 2021, the Company acquired an interest in Atlas, an early stage privately held fabless wafer design company located in the western United States. The Company’s initial investment in July 2021 was $10.0 million of preferred stock and a $5.0 million convertible promissory note. In April 2023, the Company acquired an additional interest in Atlas by purchasing $13.9 million of preferred stock. The primary purpose for providing the additional investment in Atlas was for continued access to developing technology with potential future benefit to the Company. As part of the April 2023 agreement, the Company’s previously held convertible note converted to $5.2 million of preferred stock and at March 31, 2025, the Company owned more than 50% of Atlas. The Company determined that Atlas is a VIE and a related party. While the Company does own more than 50% of Atlas, according to the voting agreement governing the transaction, the Company does not have the power to control the board of directors or direct the activities that most significantly impact Atlas, including:

• The hiring and firing of officers (i.e., CEO, CFO, etc.) – The hiring and firing of personnel responsible for making the key daily decisions and implementing the strategic operating direction will determine the success the Company has in their initiatives, thereby affecting the economic performance;

• Determining the business plan and budget, including incurring additional indebtedness or issuing additional equity interests – As Atlas is thinly capitalized, the decisions around when and how to obtain cash will influence whether AM can continue operating; and

• Determining the strategic operating direction of Atlas – The decisions made around the significant operating direction of Atlas will significantly impact the overall performance of the Company by determining where and how Atlas limited capital is spent without having significant revenues to keep the Company operating.

As the Company is not the primary beneficiary of Atlas, the Company did not consolidate the assets and liabilities of Atlas in our financial statements and instead accounts for the investment under the measurement alternative described in ASC 321-10-35-2 using

the available measurement alternative for equity securities that lack readily determinable fair value. As such, the Company’s investment is measured at cost less impairment, and adjusted to fair value if there are any observable price changes for identical or similar investment of the same issuer.

Atlas is funded through debt and equity. The Company's maximum exposure to loss is limited to its investment in Atlas and notes receivable and accrued interest owed to the Company from Atlas. The following is a summary of the Company’s holdings in Atlas, a VIE, in which we are not the primary beneficiary:
