NOTE 1 — NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

 

Corporate History

 

Brag House Holdings, Inc. (“Brag House” or “BHHI” or the “Company”) was formed as a Delaware corporation on December 3, 2021. The Company’s principal executive offices are located at 45 Park Street, Montclair, NJ 07042.

 

Brag House, Inc. (“BHI”), the Company’s wholly owned indirect subsidiary, was formed as a Delaware corporation in February 2018. Their principal offices are located at 45 Park Street, Montclair, NJ 07042.

 

On June 11, 2021, Brag House, Ltd. (“BHL”) was registered in the United Kingdom. Their principal offices are located at 7 – 9 Swallow Street, London W1B 4DE, United Kingdom.

 

On August 16, 2021, BHL acquired all of the 10,000,000 issued and outstanding BHI shares held by BHI shareholders on a one for 14.07 basis (rounded to the nearest whole number) in exchange for 140,700,000 ordinary shares of £0.0001 in BHL, making BHI a wholly owned subsidiary of BHL (“UK Reorganization”).

 

Following the UK Reorganization, the board of directors of BHL determined that it was in the best interests of BHL and its shareholders that an initial public offering (“IPO”) in the United States and concurrent listing on Nasdaq be pursued. To effect that proposed IPO and listing on Nasdaq, in December 2021, the Company was formed. In connection with this IPO, prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement, on February 8, 2022, the Company approved a reorganization, in which the shareholders of BHL would exchange their ordinary shares and preference shares of BHL for a proportionate number of common and preferred shares in the Company on a 21 to 1 basis (“U.S. Reorganization”). Immediately following the U.S. Reorganization, BHL became the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and BHI became the indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Management anticipates that BHL will be wound down and dissolved as soon as reasonably practicable following the consummation of the IPO.

 

On June 11, 2024, the Company’s board of directors approved, and on June 13, 2024, the Company’s stockholders approved the original reverse stock split (“Original Reverse Stock Split”). On June 14, 2024, the Company filed the Second Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Original Reverse Stock Split, such that every holder of Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock of the Company received 1 share of Common Stock and 1 share of Series A Preferred Stock for every 5.1287 of a share held. On October 11, 2024, the Company canceled the Original Reverse Stock Split and effected a 1 for 2.43615 consolidation of its issued and outstanding Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). On October 11, 2024, the Company filed the Third Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split. The Conversion Price of Series A convertible preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), will reflect the Reverse Stock Split. All fractional shares created by the 1 for 2.43615 exchange will be paid in cash. The resulting payment amount due for the fractional shares is not material. The Reverse Stock Split had no impact on the par value per share of the Company’s Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock, all of which remain at $0.0001. All current and prior period amounts related to shares, share prices and loss per share, presented in the Company’s financial statements and the accompanying Notes have been restated for the Reverse Stock Split.

 

On February 14, 2025, the Company received its notice of effectiveness from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and became a public company. On March 5, 2025, the Company entered into a material definitive agreement in the form of an underwriting agreement with Kingswood Capital Partners, LLC (“Kingswood”) as representative of the underwriters named therein, for the offer and sale of 1,475,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a public offering price of $4.00 per share for gross proceeds of $5.9 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and other related expenses totaling $1.1 million.

 

On March 6, 2025, the Company’s shares began trading on Nasdaq under the symbol “TBH” and on March 7, 2025, the Company filed its prospectus with the SEC and completed its IPO.

Pursuant to the underwriting agreement, as partial compensation for their services, the Company issued to the underwriters on the closing date of the IPO (the “Closing Date”), warrants (the “Underwriter Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 44,250 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing 3% of the shares issued on the Closing Date. The Underwriter Warrants will be exercisable, in whole or in part, commencing on September 3, 2025, and expiring on September 9, 2029, at an initial exercise price per share of common stock of $4.00, which is equal to 100% of the Offering price. The terms of the Underwriter Warrants are substantially the same as the terms set forth in the form of such warrants which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on March 11, 2025.  

 

On March 10, 2025, Kingswood, as representative of the underwriters, exercised in full its option to purchase an additional 221,250 shares of the Company’s common stock to cover over-allotments at a public offering price of $4.00 per share for gross proceeds from the over-allotment exercise of $885,000, before deducting underwriting discounts and other related expenses totaling $95,800. The over-allotment exercise closed on March 11, 2025 and, on that same date, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the over-allotment exercise.   

 

Nature of the Business

 

Brag House is a vertically integrated social network for college esports. The Company’s mission is to create a community which empowers gamers, streamers, and fans to interact with one another. The Company’s platform, which focuses on building a centralized esports experience for non-professional college gamers and their fans, achieves this by allowing college students to compete against one another, support their favorite gamers and teams, and win prizes.

 

Liquidity and Going Concern

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $15,715,375. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company had a net loss of $1,067,673 and negative cash flows from operations of $1,767,013. The Company’s operating activities consume the majority of its cash resources. The Company will continue to promote its services to existing and potential customers, but it anticipates that it will continue to incur operating losses as it executes its development plans through 2025, as well as other potential strategic and business development initiatives. In addition, the Company has had, and expects to have, negative cash flows from operations, at least into the near future. The Company previously funded these losses primarily through the sale of equity and infusions of cash from advances by its Chief Executive Officer, and plans to continue funding operations through the sale of equity or issuance of debt instruments. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company also secured a strategic partnership for tournament and promotional events in 2025 with Learfield Communications, LLC, formerly Learfield IMG College, a billion dollar media company that holds the media rights to hundreds of colleges in the US, including collegiate properties such as the NCAA and its 89 championships and NCAA Football. The partnership’s first activation was held online on May 17, 2025 for students and alumni of the University of Florida, one of Learfield’s media rights properties. The Company believes this partnership positions it to leverage Learfield’s college network to generate sponsorship revenue and brand engagement opportunities, while giving the Company access to extensive datasets from diverse college campuses as the Company evolves into a scalable data insight revenue model, where the Company aims to enable brands to gain data insights to create enhanced, personalized and effective marketing campaigns. The Company further believes this partnership will contribute directly to its model through shared sponsorship earnings, while validating its marketing and data strategy for reaching college-aged Gen Z gamers. Through this, the Company plans to scale across Learfield’s properties, expanding brand partnerships in the gaming and esports spaces.

Management believes this is a strong indicator of continued growth in the coming years for tournament revenue. Until revenue from such tournaments provides sufficient and steady cash flow, management intends to raise funds through equity and debt offerings, and believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan will enable the Company to continue as a going concern. While the Company believes in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and raise additional funds as described.

 

Although no assurances can be given as to the Company’s ability to deliver on its revenue plans or that unforeseen expenses will not arise, management believes that the revenue to be generated from operations, together with equity and debt financing, will provide the necessary funding for the Company to continue as a going concern. However, the Company has earned minimal revenue through the quarter ended March 31, 2025, and management cannot guarantee that any potential debt or equity financing will be available or, if available, will be available on favorable terms. As such, these matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the issuance of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, or at all, the Company will need to curtail operations or cease operations completely.

 

Emerging Growth Company

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non binding advisory vote on executive compensation and approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements with another public company, which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period, difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
