On June 4, 2025, the Company and certain of its affiliates formed Phosagmex as the joint venture contemplated by the JV Agreement. Refer to Note 6 – Joint Venture for further information, including summarized financial information.

 

CIC Limited

 

CIC Limited (“CIC”) is pursuing deep water exploration pursuant to permits in foreign waters. The Company held an ownership interest in CIC of approximately 13.1% and 13.4% as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Due to the structure of CIC, the Company determined this venture to be a variable interest entity (“VIE”) consistent with ASC 810. The Company has determined it is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE and, therefore, has not consolidated this entity. The Company records its investment under the cost method as CIC is incorporated and we have determined we do not exercise significant influence over the entity. The Company assesses its investment for impairment annually and, if a loss in value is deemed other than temporary, an impairment charge will be recorded.

 

The Company also provided services to CIC during 2025, as detailed in Note 4 – Related Party Transactions. We assess our investment for impairment annually and, if a loss in value is deemed other than temporary, an impairment charge will be recorded.

 

Ocean Minerals, LLC

 

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company owned approximately 5.3% and 7.0%, respectively, of the issued and outstanding membership interest units of OML; such reduction due to additional units issued by OML to AOM in March 2026 in connection with the Merger. The Company determined that OML is a VIE as it does not have sufficient equity at risk to permit OML to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. However, Odyssey lacks the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact OML’s economic performance, it is not the primary beneficiary of OML and therefore is not required to consolidate OML. We record our investment under the equity method. As a result, OML is considered a related party.

 

Equity Method of Accounting

 

At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s investment in OML was $4.3 million and $4.5 million, respectively, which was classified as an investment in unconsolidated entities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, based on estimated financial information for OML, we recognized losses on equity method investment of $0.3 million and $68,864, respectively, in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for our proportionate share of the net loss of OML. Our proportionate share of the net loss of our equity method investee can have a significant impact on the amount of Loss on Equity Method Investment in our condensed consolidated statement of operations and our carrying value of those investments. We eliminated from our financial results all significant intercompany transactions to the extent of our ownership interest.

 

The following tables provide summarized financial information for OML, the Company’s equity method accounted investee, not adjusted for the percentage ownership of the Company, compiled from OML’s financial statements.
