Segments

The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), the Chief Executive Officer and executive committee, manages the Company’s business activities as a single operating and reportable segment at the consolidated level. Accordingly, the CODM uses consolidated net income to measure segment profit or loss, allocate resources and assess performance. Further, the CODM reviews and utilizes functional expenses (cost of revenues, sales and marketing, research and development, and general and administrative expenses) at the consolidated level to manage the Company’s operations. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company did not have a material balance of long-lived assets located outside of the United States.

Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”)

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) provides guidance in ASC 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”) for determining whether an entity is a VIE. VIE’s are defined as entities in which equity investors of the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. A VIE is required to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is the party that (i) has the power to control the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

The Company determined that HITChain is VIE because its equity investment at risk is not sufficient to finance its expected activities without additional subordinated financial support.

The Company also determined that it is the primary beneficiary of HITChain. This conclusion was based on the following:

HITChain did not meet the definition of a business as of April 10, 2026. Upon initial consolidation of HITChain, the Company recognized a loss of $37,341, primarily attributable to formation-related liabilities incurred by HITChain prior to its initial capitalization.

By the end of May 2026, following an internal business review, the Company transferred certain in-development software assets with a carrying amount of $699,164 to HITChain. The transfer was recorded at carrying value, with no gain or loss recognized. HITChain recorded a corresponding intercompany payable to the Company, which was eliminated in consolidation. Subsequent to the transfer and through June 30, 2026, the Company continued to fund HITChain’s development activities. HITChain recorded the related amounts as an intercompany payable, which was eliminated in consolidation.

The following table summarizes the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities of HITChain included in the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2026:

The assets of HITChain can only be used to settle the obligations of HITChain and are not available to satisfy the obligations of the Company. The creditors of HITChain have no recourse to the general credit of the Company. 

The Company consolidated HITChain beginning April 10, 2026. The remaining 14.28% economic interest in HITChain is presented as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, accounts receivable and loans receivable for financial periods ended June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company further manages its credit risk on liquid funds through diversification of investment type and credit exposures. For cash, the Company places cash deposits with large financial institutions. For accounts receivable, the credit risk is managed through the use of mitigating controls, including the use of credit checks and credit limits on customers. For loans receivable, the Company monitors the exposures and counterparty credit risk on a regular basis.

Concentration of Cost of Revenues Service Providers

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company’s three primary service providers represented 28.3%, 17.5% and 14.7% of the Company’s cost of revenues, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, these three primary service providers accounted for 32.3%, 16.3% and 13.3% of the Company’s cost of revenues, respectively. As of June 30, 2026, they accounted for 40.3%, 4.7% and 9.7% of accounts payable balance, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company’s three primary service providers (including one data service provider, disclosed in “Concentration of Data Service Providers from Third Party Artificial Intelligence Providers”) accounted for 80.3%, 6.0% and 5.0% of the Company’s cost of revenues, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, these three primary service providers accounted for 78.8%, 6.4% and 5.2% of the Company’s cost of revenues, respectively. As of June 30, 2025, they accounted for 60.3%, 2.9% and 0.0% of accounts payable balance, respectively. The Company, if necessary, could utilize others as part of its service offerings with a limited impact on the Company’s operations.

Leases

The Company accounts for its leases under the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”).

The Company assesses its contracts at inception to determine whether the contract contains a lease, including evaluation of whether the contract conveys the right to control an explicitly or implicitly identified asset for a period of time. The Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities that represent the net present value of future lease payments utilizing a discount rate corresponding to the Company’s incremental borrowing rate and amortizing over the remaining terms of the leases, which was determined to be 10% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The Company accounts for the leases of less than twelve months as short-term leases and does not recognize right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company entered into a 12-month short-term lease agreement with a monthly fixed rent payable, commencing in December of 2025. The Company had one lease classified as short-term leases as of December 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company terminated the short-term lease agreement. The Company had no leases classified as short-term leases as of June 30, 2026.

Other Receivables

Certain business customers elect to receive a discount on premiums payable to carriers. In return, carriers can collect and retain these customers’ positive claim fund balance amounts. The positive claim fund is maintained in a designated account specifically earmarked for claims, held by the employer, known as “Deferred Administrative Surplus.” As the platform company, the Company tracks and processes claims for carriers. With necessary information for collection available on our platform, the Company signed an agreement on December 28, 2023 with the third-party Roscommon Captive Management and Roscommon Insurance Company (collectively the “Carrier”), to purchase the rights, title, interest, and collection rights to fees totaling $3,100,000 in Deferred Administrative Surplus for $1,650,000, which is 53% of the total collection rights (the “2023 Purchase”). Additionally, the Company entered into a separate agreement with the Carrier on March 18, 2025, to purchase the final batch of Deferred Administrative Surplus totaling $17,408,421 for $3,481,684, which is 20% of the total collection rights (the “2025 Purchase”). Subsequent to the purchase, following the final review and net of inactive insurance policies, the face value of the 2025 Purchase was approximately $13.8 million. This final batch includes stop-loss insurance policies unexpired as of the date of the 2025 Purchase (“active policies”), which were not present in the 2023 Purchase.

When entering into a stop-loss insurance policy, a business employer can elect to purchase discounted stop-loss insurance policies premiums from the Carrier by agreeing to return any positive balance in claim fund. These claim funds are held in the name of the business employer, and the Carrier has no claim to these funds until the policy and the policy run-out period ends, which is 18 months following commencement of the policy term (the “Policy End Date”). The “run-out period” refers to six-month period after the policy or plan has expired during which claims can still be submitted and processed. After the Policy End Date, any funds remaining in the claim fund belong to the Carrier. The Carrier will provide the business employers with a reconciliation of what amounts are specifically owed. This is based on the amount of funds in the business employers’ claim fund account, and the value of claims incurred during the policy and run-out period (the “Deferred Administrative Surplus”). The Deferred Administrative Surplus is owned by the Carrier and not subject any contingencies other than the ability to collect from the business employer.

As part of the Company’s services to the Carrier, ICE contracted with the Carrier to collect premium and process claims expense. Therefore, in its internal system, the Company can calculate the approximate amount of positive balance in the claims fund. The exact amount will be determined after full reconciliation of the claims fund after completion of the run-out period.

In the case of the 2023 Purchase, the Company purchased the policies with related run-out periods that had lapsed and had positive claim fund balances according to the Company’s internal system. As such, the Company knows the value of the Deferred Administrative Surplus purchased. The 2025 Purchase includes all the remaining policies with deferred administrative surplus as a product feature from the Carrier. Collectively, the Carrier and HIT platform stopped offering this feature in August 2024. Thus, 2025 purchased policies are in different periods and stages, including in the policy coverage period, in the run-out period and the out of run-out periods. For policies in the coverage period and in the run-out periods, the final Deferred Administrative Surplus cannot be determined until the policy completes the run-out period and finalizes the reconciliation. Following the purchase, the Deferred Administrative Surplus was transferred to the Company for collection. After the transfer, the Company performs the relevant reconciliations to demonstrate to the business employers the amount of the Deferred Administrative Surplus now owed to the Company from the claim fund balance. The Company asks the business owners to pay back the Deferred Administrative Surplus within 30 days of the collection requests sent.

The key risks associated with the collection of the Deferred Administrative Surplus relate to the Company’s limited collections experience related to the Deferred Administrative Surplus at the time of purchase from the Carrier. To reduce the Company’s collection risk, the Company negotiated with the Carrier to purchase the Deferred Administrative Surplus at 53% the estimated face value of the 2023 Purchase and 20% of estimated face value of 2025 Purchase. This was due to the Carrier does not have the sufficient resources and procedures to collect the Deferred Administrative Surplus. Moreover, the 2025 Purchase was the final batch of policies with the Deferred Administrative Surplus. The Company would have to collect less than 53% of the Deferred Administrative Surplus balance for the 2023 Purchase to incur a loss, and less than 20% for the 2025 Purchase to incur a loss. As of June 30, 2026, the Company collected $1,272,413 for the 2023 Purchase and $290,283 for the 2025 Purchase. The lower collection amount related to the 2025 Purchase is a result of a substantial majority of the underlying policies remaining in the reconciliation process of the Deferred Administrative Surplus, for which the Company initiates collection requests to business employers only upon the completion of such reconciliations.

The purchase of the Deferred Administrative Surplus does not represent a purchase of a financial asset with credit deterioration as defined in accordance with ASC 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses. Furthermore, the Company only has approximately three months of historical collection success rates at the time of entering into the 2023 Purchase contract. These collection success rates are based upon limited experience given the Company has only collected on these types of assets for a short period of time. Moreover, the historical collection success rates for the 2023 Purchase were not applicable for the 2025 Purchase at contract inception, due to the differing components of the two purchases, such as active policies in the 2025 Purchase. As such, the Company has accounted for these assets under a nonaccrual approach. The Company will continue to assess this policy as additional collection information is received and collection trends are identified. The Company recorded the consideration as other receivables both as of June 30, 2026 and as of December 31, 2025. The Company collected $12,224 under the Deferred Administrative Surplus during the six months ended June 30, 2026. The Company collected $165,802 under the Deferred Administrative Surplus during the six months ended June 30, 2025. Payments made for purchases and collections from the Deferred Administrative Surplus are included in the “other receivables” line of operating activities in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. 

Set forth below is an illustrative roll-forward based on actual figures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.

The Company separately assessed if an allowance for credit losses was necessary for this Other Receivables. In estimating the allowance, the Company considers factors including the aging and collection history of the receivables, the length of time amounts have remained outstanding, information obtained through the collection process, and other relevant facts and circumstances affecting expected collectability. Other Receivables are written off after all collection attempts have been exhausted. Credit loss expense recognized on Deferred Administrative Surplus, which is presented in General and administrative expenses in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations, was $739,773 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and $0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. The credit loss expense of $739,773 relates to the 2025 Purchase and no credit loss expense was recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 associated with the 2023 Purchase. No income was recognized on the Deferred Administrative Surplus in any of the periods presented, as collections received did not exceed the carrying value of the receivable. Under the Company’s nonaccrual approach, income is recognized only upon actual cash receipt to the extent that amounts received exceed the carrying value of the receivable at the time of collection.

Software Capitalization

The Company incurs certain costs associated with the development of its Hi-Card, eDIYBS systems and other systems. In accordance with ASC 350-40, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other: Internal-Use Software, the Company capitalizes certain costs associated with the development of its internal-use software after the preliminary project stage is complete and until the design, coding, installation, and testing of the software have been completed. Upgrades and enhancements are capitalized if they will result in added functionality. Capitalized costs are amortized over an expected three-year period. In May of 2023, the Company determined that its eDIYBS system was ready for its intended use. In September 2025, an expansion of the eDIYBS system was also completed and placed into service. As such, the Company has entered the eDIYBS system in the post-implementation phase. The Company has amortized $320,320 and $723,787 of the capitalized costs associated with eDIYBS and other systems for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and $135,983 and $271,966 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, which is included in the cost of revenues line item of the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company capitalized $809,478 and $1,390,611, respectively, of software development costs, and $919,000 and $1,828,615 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

The objective of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with customers (“ASC 606”) is to establish the principles that an entity shall apply to report useful information to users of the financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a contract with a customer. An entity shall 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, as defined in ASC 606-10-10-1 and ASC 606-10-10-2.

This evaluation under ASC 606 follows a five-step model, including:

In general, ASC 606’s core principle is to recognize revenue in a manner that depicts 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. Required disclosures under ASC 606 include qualitative and quantitative information about contracts with customers and significant judgments and estimates as to the application of the 5-step revenue recognition analysis, among others. 

The Company accounts for its revenue under the accounting guidance of ASC 606. The Company’s contracts that are within the scope of ASC 606 specifically relate to the services that are associated with customers who purchase self-funded benefits plans. These plans are facilitated through a network of brokers, TPAs, MGUs, carriers, and other third-party agents.

Identification of the Performance Obligations

The Company analyzes each of the deliverables pursuant to its contracts with customers. For each of the deliverables, the Company performs a detailed analysis to determine whether the deliverables are separately identifiable. The Company notes that although the deliverables can vary from day to day, all specifically relate to one kind of service, representing one performance obligation that is provided by each of its subsidiaries (SMR and ICE), as further described below.

SMR Specific Considerations

Program and Platform Management Services (Legacy)

Under SMR’s Program and platform management services, the Company’s insurance marketplace allows brokers to customize an employer’s self-funded benefits plan and stop loss insurance policies. When licensed brokers log in to the Company’s platform, they upload an employee census representing the employee base of the business employer, select which network they wish to use, what plan designs they want to offer to the business employer and then quickly obtain a bindable self-funded medically underwritten stop loss quote they can provide to their business customers. The chosen vendors provide benefit services as outlined on the platform. The fees that the Company and others charge for the service offerings within the quote are outlined and expressly agreed to by the employer. The employer customizes their health insurance plan and executes an annual agreement. This agreement includes a sold case breakdown (SCB) that outlines the individual stop loss insurance and benefits service offerings selected by the employer and the cost of each, including any optional services offered by the Company or other vendors. Through this, the Company is aware of the services that the broker is offering to the employer for the health insurance plan period, which is normally twelve (12) months. This includes each of the performance obligations provided by its subsidiaries as further outlined below. Subsequent to the execution of the initial bindable SCB with its customers, the Company may modify the health insurance plan during the plan period when a non qualified event occurs based on the definition provided by the carriers. For example, if there is a significant fluctuation or changes of enrolled employees (EEs) from the first month. 

The Company has business relationships with licensed brokers, as licensed brokers register on the Company’s platform to select and sell benefits plans and stop loss policies to employers as discussed above. However, there is no contractual relationship between the Company or any of its subsidiaries and the brokers. The Company’s platform provides credentialing for licensed brokers, allowing them to access its marketplace to select and sell self-funded benefits plans for the business employer at no cost. Brokers are paid by the businesses, with no contractual relationship between the Company and the brokers, only a credentialing process, and free access is provided.

TPAs are contracted and authorized by the business employers to enter into service contracts with SMR on behalf of the business employers. ASC 606 defines a customer as a party that has contracted with an entity to obtain goods or services that are an output of the ordinary activities of the company in exchange for consideration. SMR is not providing services to the TPAs, but instead, has contracts to collaborate with the TPAs to facilitate the administration of health benefit plans and stop-loss insurance policies to its customers, which are the business employers. The TPA will administer the purchased health benefits plan and manage the multiple service providers associated with the health benefits plan and stop-loss insurance policy. Such service providers are listed on the bindable quotes via the bindable sold case breakdown, which outlines the individual stop loss insurance and benefits service offerings selected by the business and the cost of each. Only the business employer can start or terminate the relationship with SMR. The TPA cannot start or terminate the relationship with SMR. As such, the Company has concluded that the TPAs are not customers and that the business employers are the customers of SMR pursuant to ASC 606.

Effective January 1, 2026, the Company has pivoted its services to offer pre-designed self-funded plans to employers, leveraging years of experience in selecting and managing the vendors that are essential to the plan.

Self-funded Plan Administration Services (Effective January 1, 2026)

SMR develops pre-configured, self-funded health benefit plans that integrate full administrative services and then are bundled with stop-loss insurance for employer clients. SMR delivers a comprehensive, end-to-end self-funded health plan solution spanning plan design and ongoing administration.

SMR curates and onboards a network of specialized administrative vendors, contracting directly and tailoring service configurations based on deep operational experience and sector expertise. This enables consistent execution while maintaining flexibility to meet the specific needs of employers and distribution partners.

As of June 30, 2026, SMR includes more than 100 pre-designed plans that can be efficiently configured and bundled with stop-loss coverage, significantly streamlining implementation.

This model simplifies the complexity of self-funded plan administration, materially improves operational efficiency, and provides a differentiated, flexible solution for both employers and sales agents.

ICE Specific Considerations

ICE has contractual relationships with carriers. ICE underwrites a stop-loss insurance policy and processes claims per the respective carrier’s underwriting guideline and claims processing guideline. In these instances, the carrier is the Company’s customer.

The Company’s performance obligations related to its revenue can be summarized as follows:

Underwriting modeling and risk services: As a part of the Company’s overall insurance marketplace, ICE provides underwriting modelling, machine learning-driven underwriting services, and risk services to its customers. Through its web-based SaaS quoting platform, eDIYBS (Enhance Do It Yourself Benefit System), brokers log in to eDIYBS, upload census, select plans and generate bindable quotes. eDIYBS medically underwrites each employer. ICE continues to assess risks and may re-underwrite based on underwriting risk guidelines provided by carriers. Any enrollment changes in a business can have large fluctuations during a policy period that may trigger a re-underwrite. ICE not only monitors and manages these activities but also facilitates insurance reporting. Revenue related to these services are included in the “Revenues from underwriting modeling” within the Consolidated Statements of Operations. These services are provided by ICE for carriers. Unlike the Company’s other performance obligations, the Company’s agreements for its underwriting modeling and risk performance obligations are with stop loss carriers. Under these agreements, the Company develops and maintains all underwriting models, defines risk criteria based on risk guidelines provided by carriers, manages underwriting of risk, manages claims activity, ensures reinsurance reporting, and handles monthly reinsurance filings. The purpose of these services is to ensure that the stop loss carrier is assuming an appropriate amount of risk when taking on a new insurance policy, and further that the premiums being charged are appropriate based upon the population of the new insurance policy (age, demographic, etc.).

Program and platform management services: As a part of the Company’s overall insurance marketplace, SMR is a program manager specializing in customized self-funded benefits programs for businesses. SMR’s expertise in health benefits enables the Company to analyze, review and select vendors that have sufficient experience, which is an essential component of a health plan that is constantly evolving with its business employers based on factors such as employee headcount and a specific employee’s geographic location. SMR will then design health plans, select networks, and sets up the benefits plan for the business employers. Licensed brokers log in to the marketplace to select and sell self-funded benefits plans to businesses. The Company throughout the contract period is actively working with the TPA to assist administration of the plan specifically due to headcount changes. The Company’s service offerings encompass reference-based pricing, group insurance captives, community health plans, and association health programs. This service is performed for employers to ensure that they have access to a customized health benefits program. For these Program and Platform Management Services, the Company acts as a facilitator and does not control the underlying services prior to transfer to customers. The Company accounts for these services under ASC 606-10-25-14(b) as a series of distinct services that are substantially the same per enrolled employee and have the same pattern of transfer as the delivery of the specified services is satisfied over time, and each service is substantially the same and has the same measure of progress. Revenue related to these services are included in the “Revenues from fees” within the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Self-funded plan administration services: SMR delivers a comprehensive, end-to-end self-funded health plan solution to business employers, spanning plan design and ongoing administration. SMR establishes independent pricing for services, and acts as the primary party responsible for service fulfillment. The Company acts as the principal under ASC 606 for these Plan administration services, as it controls the services prior to transfer to employers and is primarily responsible for fulfillment. These services are accounted for under ASC 606-10-25-14(b) as a series of distinct services that are substantially the same per enrolled employee and have the same pattern of transfer. Revenue related to these services are included in the “Revenues from fees” within the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Each of the services above allows for the customers to simultaneously receive and consume the benefits of the Company’s performance as it performs. Services provided by SMR (either program and platform management or self-funded plan administration) and underwriting modeling and risk services provided by ICE (including eDIYBS) are interdependent, as they cannot function effectively without being combined.

As such, the Company has determined that it is appropriate to recognize revenue over a period of the defined contractual term. The Company has determined that the pattern of transfer of control to the customers is commensurate with its right to invoice given the fact that at the end of each reporting period, all performance obligations of the Company have been satisfied and provided to the Company’s customers, and as such, the Company records its revenue based on the sold policy enrollment.

Payments required throughout the duration of the policy start once a policy has become effective, and are subsequently due on policy effective date of the month through the duration of the policy. Given the Company’s policy terms, there are no performance obligations that remain unperformed at the end of each reporting period.

Disaggregation of Revenue

A summary of the Company’s disaggregated revenues is as follows:

Variable Consideration

With the exception of its business relationship with one stop-loss insurance carrier, the Company does not have variable consideration that would require constraint from the transaction price of its contracts with customers as the Company receives monthly payments either based on a fixed percentage of the monthly premiums paid by the carrier, or a fixed dollar amount based on the end users serviced during a given month paid by employers. The Company has reviewed all contracts with its customers and determined that, other than the contract described below, none include terms that could result in the Company refunding amounts to a carrier or receiving variable cash flows.

For this stop-loss insurance carrier, with which the Company’s new policy underwriting otherwise ended in 2024, ICE entered into a Program Manager Agreement (the “Agreement”), effective August 1, 2023. Under the Agreement, ICE provides underwriting modeling and risk program services in connection with self-funded stop-loss policies issued by the carrier and charges the carrier a Manager Fee of up to 12% of gross written premiums. Pursuant to Addendum 3 to the Agreement, the Manager Fee is subject to a Manager Fee Adjustment (the “Adjustment”) that may reduce the fee retained by ICE, ranging from $nil to the full Manager Fee of 12% of gross written premiums. The Manager Fee constitutes variable consideration in its entirety, as the amount ICE is ultimately entitled to retain depends on the Adjustment. The carrier pays ICE the Manager Fee monthly based on gross written premiums collected in the preceding month, with any Adjustment determined and settled separately.

The Agreement covers 11 consecutive policy batches from August 2023 through June 2024 (each group of policies sharing the same effective date month, a “policy batch”). Each policy batch passes through three stages: (i) a 12-month in-effect stage; (ii) a six-month run-out stage, during which claims are submitted — upon completion, claims data for that batch is substantially complete; and (iii) a six-month reconciliation stage, during which submitted claims are reviewed and finalized.

At agreement inception and through December 31, 2024, none of the policy batches had completed their run-out period. Based on the Company’s industry experience and ongoing monitoring of each policy batch’s performance, the performance of the underlying policies was favorable at each reporting date. Accordingly, the Company assessed the probability of any meaningful Adjustment as remote, and the estimated transaction price for each policy batch equaled the full Manager Fee of 12% of gross written premiums. No revenue reduction was recorded in 2023 or 2024.

During 2025, as each policy batch completed its run-out period, the claims data for that batch became substantially complete, providing the Company with updated information to reflect in its transaction price estimates. For policy batches where the updated information indicated adverse performance, the Company concluded that the probability of a meaningful Adjustment was no longer remote and reduced the estimated transaction price accordingly. The Company updates its transaction price estimates at each reporting date to reflect the information then available.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company estimated contra revenue of $0 and $108,402, respectively, and $175,698 and $955,743 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, related to the Adjustment. These amounts reduced revenue from underwriting modeling services provided to the carrier. The cumulative reduction in revenue recorded through June 30, 2026 was $4.0 million, comprising approximately $3.9 million in 2025 and approximately $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2026. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, refund liabilities of $0 and $891,598 related to the Adjustment were recorded in other current liabilities, respectively. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has made interim payments of $4,000,000 to the carrier in connection with the Adjustment, subject to final reconciliation. The Company retains the right to recover any overpaid amounts. Subsequent to the completion of the interim payment schedule, the carrier asserted an additional claim of up to approximately $400,000 in connection with the Adjustment during the second quarter of 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the merits of the additional claim and the parties are engaged in ongoing negotiations. Given the early stage of negotiations, the amount of any additional obligation, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, and no additional provision has been recorded as of June 30, 2026. The Company will continue to update its estimates at each reporting date to reflect the information then available.

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

Contract assets represent the Company’s right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the entity has transferred to a customer when that right is conditioned on something other than the passage of time. Contract liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the entity has received consideration. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company did not have contract assets or liabilities.

Costs to Obtain a Contract

Under ASC 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs — Contracts with Customers (“ASC 340”) incremental costs of obtaining a contract, such as sales commissions and bonus programs afforded to brokers, are capitalized if they are expected to be recovered. The Company elected the practical expedient under ASC 340 to expense the costs to obtain a contract as incurred when the expected amortization period is one year or less. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no such capitalized costs. All eligible contract acquisition costs expensed by the Company have been included in sales and marketing expenses on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Significant Financing Components

The Company elected the practical expedient that allows the Company to not assess a contract for a significant financing component if the period between the customer’s payment and the transfer of the goods or services is one year or less. There were no significant financing components during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation Expense

In accordance with ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, the Company’s share-based compensation program provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) and unrestricted stock awards to officers, employees, directors and non-employees. The fair value of stock options granted in July 2023 and August 2024 was determined using the binomial option-pricing model. The fair value of RSAs granted before the Company’s initial public offering (the “initial public offering” or the “IPO”) was based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant, using the discounted cash flow method and back-solve method, respectively. The fair value of unrestricted and restricted stock granted after the IPO is based on the closing market price on the date of the grant.

Effective April 10, 2026, following the consolidation of HITChain, the Company’s stock-based compensation expense also includes equity awards granted under HITChain’s equity incentive plan. HITChain’s share-based compensation program grant awards include stock options and RSAs to officers, directors and non-employees. The fair value of stock options granted was determined using the binomial option-pricing model. The fair value of RSAs granted was based on the fair value of HITChain’s common stock on the date of the grant. See Note 7 for further details.

The Company grants stock options and RSAs that are subject to either service or service and performance-based vesting conditions. Compensation expense for awards to officers, employees and directors with service-based vesting conditions is recognized using the straight-line method over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company uses historical data to estimate awards’ forfeitures and records stock-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest. Compensation expense for awards to non-employees with service-based vesting conditions is recognized in the same manner as if the Company had paid cash in exchange for services, which is generally over the vesting period of the award. Should the Company terminate any of its consulting agreements, the unvested options and RSAs underlying the agreements would be cancelled. Compensation expense for awards to officers, employees, directors and non-employees with service and performance-based vesting conditions is recognized based on the grant-date fair value over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis to the extent achievement of the performance condition is probable. The Company reassesses the probability of achieving the performance condition at each reporting date and begins recognizing expense only when it is probable that the condition will be met.

The Company’s expected stock price volatility assumption is based on the volatility of comparable public companies. The expected term of a stock option granted to employees and directors (including non-employee directors) is based on the average of the contractual term (generally 5 years) and the vesting period. For non-employee options, the expected term is the contractual term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of U.S. Treasury securities consistent with the life of the option. The expected dividend yield was set to zero as the Company does not pay dividends on its common stock and there was no expectation of doing so as of the respective grant dates.
