| SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding consolidated financial reporting. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Linkhome Holdings and Linkhome Realty. All intercompany transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiary have been eliminated upon consolidation. In the opinion of management, such financial information includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, unless otherwise indicated) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position at such date and the operating results and cash flows for such periods.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “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 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 nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder 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 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.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the dates of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates and judgments include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, allowance for credit losses, income taxes, the useful lives of long-lived assets and assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-lived assets. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Although actual amounts may differ from the estimated amounts, such differences are not likely to be material.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers cash, money market funds, investments in interest bearing demand deposit accounts, time deposits and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalent readily convertible to known amounts of cash are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Investments in Trading Securities
The Company classifies investments in trading securities as financial instruments acquired with the intent to sell them in the near term for profit. Trading securities are initially recorded at cost and subsequently measured at fair value, with both realized and unrealized gains or losses recognized in the consolidated statements of income under “Other Income/Expenses.” Unrealized gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of trading securities are recognized in the consolidated statements of income at each reporting period, while realized gains or losses are calculated based on the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the securities sold.
The Company opened an investment account with J.P. Morgan Chase in January 2025. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company purchased and disposed of trading securities totaling approximately $274,718 and $272,067, respectively. The investment account balance was withdrawn in June 2025, and no trading securities were held as of December 31, 2025. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized a realized loss on trading securities of $2,651, which was recorded in the consolidated statements of income under “Other Income/Expenses.”
Credit Losses
On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASC 326”). This standard replaced the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. CECL requires an estimate of credit losses for the remaining estimated life of the financial asset using historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts and generally applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities, and some off-balance sheet credit exposures such as unfunded commitments to extend credit. Financial assets measured at amortized cost will be presented at the net amount expected to be collected by using an allowance for credit losses. In addition, CECL made changes to the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities. One such change is to require credit losses to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down on available-for-sale debt securities if management does not intend to sell and does not believe that it is more likely than not they will be required to sell. The Company adopted ASC 326 and all related subsequent amendments thereto effective January 1, 2023, using the modified retrospective approach for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures. There was no transition adjustment upon the adoption of CECL.
The Company’s accounts receivable and prepaid expense in the consolidated balance sheets are within the scope of ASC Topic 326. As the Company has limited customers and debtors, the Company uses the loss-rate method to evaluate the expected credit losses on an individual basis. When establishing the loss rate, the Company makes the assessment on various factors, including historical experience, creditworthiness of customers and debtors, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect its ability to collect from the customers and debtors. The Company also provides specific provisions for allowance when facts and circumstances indicate that the receivable is unlikely to be collected.
Expected credit losses are recorded as an allowance for credit losses, which is netted against accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets, and are recognized as an expense in the consolidated statements of income. Receivables are written off against the allowance when all collection efforts have been exhausted and recovery is deemed remote. If the Company recovers amounts that were previously written off, the recovered amounts are recognized as a reduction to the provision for credit losses in the consolidated statements of income.
Accounts Receivable, Net
Accounts receivable represent the amounts that the Company has an unconditional right to consideration, which are stated at the historical carrying amount net of allowance for credit losses. The Company maintains allowances for credit losses for estimated losses. The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including historical losses, the age of the receivable balance, the customer’s historical payment patterns and creditworthiness, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. Accounts are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no allowances for credit losses.
Real Estate Held for Sale
Real estate properties acquired on behalf of clients as part of the Company’s Cash Offer program are classified as real estate held for sale in accordance with the criteria outlined in FASB ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment.” Under this classification, properties held for sale are measured at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had real estate held for sale. As of December 31, 2024, the Company recorded one property as real estate held for sale with a carrying value of $907,061. This property was acquired in December 2024 under the Cash Offer program to facilitate a transaction for a client and was subsequently sold in January 2025.
Advance to Contractor
Advance to contractor represents amounts paid to contractors in advance for home renovation projects that are not yet completed, from which the Company expects to receive future economic benefits within its normal operating cycle. Home renovation projects are generally completed within one to three months from the date the advance payment is made. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were no outstanding advances to contractors.
Deferred Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) Costs
The Company accounts for deferred IPO costs in accordance with the requirement of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A — “Expenses of Offering.” Deferred offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, consulting, and other expenses incurred up to the balance sheet date that are directly attributable to the planned IPO. These deferred costs will be charged to shareholders’ equity upon the successful completion of the IPO. If the IPO is unsuccessful, all deferred costs, along with any additional expenses incurred, will be charged to operations.
In July 2025, the Company successfully completed its initial public offering, and the deferred offering costs were reclassified to additional paid-in capital as a reduction of the IPO proceeds. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, deferred IPO costs amounted to $0 and $699,499, respectively. Property and Equipment, Net
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred, while additions, renewals and improvements that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation is removed from the respective accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of income. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, depreciation expense amounted to $38,881 and $18,762, respectively. The estimated useful lives by asset classification are generally as follows:
Intangible Assets, Net
Intangible assets consist primarily of internally developed software and trademarks. Internally developed software is capitalized in accordance with ASC 350-40, “Internal-Use Software.” Costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software once the asset is placed in service. Trademarks are considered indefinite-lived intangible assets and are not amortized but are evaluated for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset may be impaired.
In December 2025, the Company placed into service internally developed software related to its AI-driven real estate platform, including the Linkhome website and the Linkhome AI mobile application. The Company capitalized $570,000 of development costs associated with the platform and began amortization when the software was placed into service on December 5, 2025. The internally developed software is amortized using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life of five years. For the year ended December 31, 2025, amortization expense related to the internally developed software was $8,121.
Investment under Cost Method
The Company accounts for investments with less than 20% of the voting shares and does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee using the cost method. The Company elects the measurement alternative and records investments in equity securities at historical cost in its consolidated financial statements. Such investments are subject to evaluation for impairment. Dividends received from the net accumulated earnings of the investee are recognized as income, while dividends received in excess of such earnings are considered a return of investment and recorded as a reduction of the cost of the investment.
In October 2025, the Company invested $50,000 in the common stock of a privately held company, representing an approximate 2.5% ownership interest. As of December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the investment was $50,000. No impairment was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2025. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets, which include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable.
The Company evaluates events and changes in circumstances that could indicate the carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances occur, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company records an impairment charge in the period in which such a determination is made. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Based on the above analysis, no impairment loss was recognized related to these assets for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current period and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets also include the prior years’ net operating losses carried forward. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of the available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 740, which prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FASB ASC Topic 740 also provides guidance on recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods, and income tax disclosures.
Under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 740, when tax returns are filed, it is likely some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits is classified as interest expense and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of income. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not take any uncertain positions that would necessitate recording a tax related liability.
Prior to January 1, 2024, Linkhome Realty filed its income tax return under Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) as an S-corporation, and elected to be taxed as a pass-through entity, for which the income, losses, deductions, and credits flow through to the shareholders of the company for federal income tax purposes. Effective January 1, 2024, Linkhome Realty’s tax status became C-corporation, and is subject to a federal income tax rate of 21% and California state income tax rate of 8.84%. As a parent holding company of Linkhome Realty, Linkhome Holdings was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 6, 2023, and is only subject to a federal income tax rate of 21%. Effective for the tax year beginning January 1, 2024, and continuing thereafter unless revoked, Linkhome Holdings and Linkhome Realty have elected to file a consolidated federal income tax return. Revenue Recognition
In accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The Company recognizes revenues following the five-step model prescribed under ASU No. 2014-09: (i) identifies contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identifies the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determines the transaction price; (iv) allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognizes revenues when (or as) it satisfies the performance obligation.
The Company derives its revenues primarily from real estate services and real estate purchases and sales through Cash Offer.
Real Estate Service Revenue
The Company’s real estate service revenue consists primarily of real estate agency commission for buying and selling properties for clients, and revenue generated from property management, home renovation, and mortgage referral services.
The Company earns agency commission revenue, usually at a fixed percentage of the property’s selling price, through facilitating the buy or sale of various types of properties, including residential, commercial, and land parcels. The Company is considered an agent for these services provided, and reports service revenue earned through these transactions on a net basis. Revenue is recognized when the agency service is provided, usually at the closing of escrow.
Prior to November 17, 2023, the Company conducted real estate transactions through a licensed third-party brokerage firm. On November 17, 2023, Linkhome Realty obtained its own real estate broker license, allowing the Company to conduct brokerage transactions independently.
The Company provides property management services, which include two primary activities: tenant placement and ongoing property management. Tenant placement services involve marketing the property, identifying suitable tenants, and facilitating the rental agreement. For these services, the Company acts as an agent and charges a rental commission, either as a percentage of the first year’s rent or a fixed fee. Revenue from tenant placement is recognized at a point in time when a tenant is secured, and the lease contract is executed. Additionally, the Company provides ongoing property management services, which may include collecting rent on behalf of the landlord, coordinating maintenance and repairs, and addressing tenant inquiries during the lease term. For these services, the Company also acts as an agent and charges a service fee. Revenue from ongoing property management is recognized over time as the services are rendered, as the landlord simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the Company’s efforts.
The Company also offers a full range of home renovation services, from bathroom and kitchen renovations to customized home renovations and extensions, helping clients prepare their homes for sale or personalize newly purchased properties. The Company considers itself as a principal for this service as it has control of the specified service at any time before it is transferred to the customer, which is evidenced by (i) the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promises to provide home renovation services meeting customer specifications, and assumes fulfilment risk (i.e., risk that the performance obligation will not be satisfied); and (ii) the Company has discretion in selecting third-party renovation contractors and establishing the price, and bears the risk for services that are not fully paid for by customers. The renovation period is usually within one to three months; the Company recognizes revenue when the renovation service is completed, on a gross basis with corresponding costs incurred.
In addition, the Company collaborates with lending institutions and mortgage brokers to assist clients in seeking and securing mortgage services, and aiding clients in the process of obtaining loans or financing for property purchases. Revenue is recognized when the related loan transaction is completed and the Company becomes entitled to the referral fee. Revenue from Property Purchases and Sales through Cash Offer
The Company’s revenue from purchases and sales through its Cash Offer program primarily consists of purchasing residential properties and subsequently reselling those properties to customers within a short period of time. Under the Cash Offer program, the Company may purchase residential properties using its own capital, with title transferred to Linkhome Realty, and subsequently resell the properties to customers. Both purchase and sales transactions go through an escrow company. The Company is the principal of these transactions and recognizes revenue and cost when the property purchased is sold and escrow is closed. This type of revenue does not contain a financing component due to there being no difference between the amount of promised consideration and the cash selling price of the promised goods or services, and the length of time between when the Company transfers the promised goods or services to the customer and when the customer pays for those goods is very short, usually within a few weeks or a few months.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The following table provides information about disaggregated revenue by revenue stream.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues consists primarily of (i) costs related to property purchases made under Linkhome Realty’s name, which are subsequently sold to customers, and (ii) costs associated with real estate services, including commission expenses for real estate agents working for the Company and renovation costs incurred for home renovation services.
Segment Information
On October 1, 2024, the Company adopted ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” The Company applies the “management approach” to identify operating segments, as required by ASC 280-10-50. Under this approach, operating segments are components of the business whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to assess performance and allocate resources. The Company’s CODM is the senior executive committee, which includes the and the Chief Financial Officer.
The CODM manages the Company’s operations as a operating and reportable segment, referred to as the Real Estate Solutions segment, which includes all activities related to the Company’s integrated real estate platform. The Company manages its business activities on a consolidated basis, including two principal business lines: (1) Cash Offer transactions, in which the Company purchases and resells properties for customers; and (2) real estate services, including real estate agency services, property management services, home renovation services, and mortgage referral services. See “Revenue Recognition” for a breakdown of revenues by stream. The accounting policies of the Real Estate Solutions segment are the same as those described elsewhere in the summary of significant accounting policies. The CODM assesses segment performance and allocates resources primarily based on consolidated net income, which is also reported in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. The CODM does not review segment assets or liabilities separately and receives financial reporting on a consolidated basis.
Net income is used by the CODM to evaluate the return on segment assets and determine whether to reinvest profits in the business, fund acquisitions, or return capital to shareholders. Net income is also used to compare actual performance against budget and to benchmark the Company’s performance against industry peers. These evaluations form the basis for internal performance assessments and management compensation decisions.
The following table presents the segment revenues, segment profit or loss, and significant segment expenses included in the measure of segment performance for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:
The following table presents segment assets and expenditures for segment assets. Segment assets are reviewed on a consolidated basis and reflect total consolidated assets as reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Expenditures for segment assets include additions to long-lived assets.
All of the Company’s revenues and long-lived assets were attributable to operations in the United States for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. All customers resided in the United States, and all properties purchased and sold by the Company were located in the United States. Therefore, no geographical disaggregation is presented.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, revenues from two customers accounted for approximately 12.02% and 10.89% of the Company’s total revenues, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2024, revenues from two related-party customers accounted for approximately 40.13% and 23.10% of the Company’s total revenues, respectively.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and accounts receivable. The Company has concentrated its credit risk for cash by maintaining deposits in the financial institutions in the United States. Deposits in these financial institutions may, from time to time, exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)’s federally insured limits. The standard insurance amount is $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank, for each account ownership category. The bank deposits exceeding the standard insurance amount will not be covered. The Company did not incur any losses on its cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company applies the fair value measurement accounting standard in accordance with ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” whenever other accounting pronouncements require or permit fair value measurements. Fair value is defined in ASC 820-10 as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect a reporting entity’s pricing based upon their own market assumptions. The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels (Level 1 is the highest priority and Level 3 is the lowest priority):
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not have any assets or liabilities that were required to be remeasured at fair value on a recurring basis. The carrying values of financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair values because of their short maturities. Leases
Under ASC 842, “Leases,” a contract is or contains a lease when the Company has the right to control the use of an identified asset. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the contract, which is the date on which the terms of the contract are agreed to, and the agreement creates enforceable rights and obligations. The commencement date of the lease is the date that the lessor makes an underlying asset available for use by the Company.
The Company determines if the lease is an operating or finance lease at the lease commencement date based upon the terms of the lease and the nature of the asset. The lease term used to calculate the lease liability includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. Linkhome Realty’s office lease is classified as an operating lease, reflected in the operating lease right-of-use assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities and non-current portion of operating lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
The lease liability is measured at the present value of future lease payments, discounted using the discount rate for the lease at the commencement date. As the Company is typically unable to determine the implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the lease term and economic environment at commencement date. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate based on its understanding of what its credit rating would be. The ROU assets include adjustments for prepayments and accrued lease payments. The right-of-use (“ROU”) asset is initially measured as the amount of lease liability, adjusted for any initial lease costs, prepaid lease payments, and reduced by any lease incentives.
ROU assets are reviewed for impairment when indicators of impairment are present. ROU assets from operating and finance leases are subject to the impairment guidance in ASC 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment,” as ROU assets are long-lived nonfinancial assets.
ROU assets are tested for impairment individually or as part of an asset group if the cash flows related to the ROU assets are not independent from the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. An asset group is the unit of accounting for long-lived assets to be held and used, which represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized no impairment of ROU assets.
Related Parties and Transactions
The Company identifies related parties, and accounts for, discloses related party transactions in accordance with ASC 850, “Related Party Disclosures” and other relevant ASC standards.
Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence. Transactions between related parties commonly occurring in the normal course of business are related party transactions. Transactions between related parties are also considered to be related party transactions even though they may not be given accounting recognition. While ASC does not provide accounting or measurement guidance for such transactions, it nonetheless requires their disclosure.
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase earnings per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no dilutive securities. Commitments and Contingencies
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management and legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no such contingencies.
In December 2025, the Company received $1,500,085 from a third party in connection with a proposed real estate investment. The transaction was cancelled on December 31, 2025, and the Company recorded a liability for the full amount as of December 31, 2025. The amount was repaid in full on January 2, 2026. See Note 7 – Other Current Liabilities for additional information.
New Accounting Pronouncements
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs and periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued. Under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (the “JOBS Act”), the Company meets the definition of an emerging growth company and has elected the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards, which delays the adoption of these accounting standards until they would apply to private companies.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” The amendments in the ASU are intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. In addition, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contain other disclosure requirements. The purpose of the amendments is to enable “investors to better understand an entity’s overall performance” and assess “potential future cash flows.” The amendments in ASU 2023-07 are effective for all public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 for the year ended December 31, 2024, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which requires enhanced income tax disclosures, including additional information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Pending Adoption
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40),” which is intended to improve disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and provide more detailed information about the nature of expenses included in commonly presented expense captions, such as cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses. The amendments require entities to disclose, in the notes to the financial statements, specified information about certain expense categories, including employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, within relevant income statement captions. The amendments also require tabular disclosures of such disaggregated expense information, as well as qualitative descriptions of the remaining amounts not separately disaggregated.
In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, which clarifies the effective date of ASU 2024-03. As clarified, the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2024-03 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
The Company does not believe that any other recently issued but not yet effective authoritative guidance, if adopted currently, would have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or related disclosures. Reclassification
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Specifically, offering costs of $699,499 previously presented within operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2024 have been reclassified to financing activities to conform to the current year presentation. This reclassification had no impact on net income or total cash flows. |
