Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in GAAP financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, and these statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Annual Report”). The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 was derived from those audited financial statements.

 

In management’s opinion, these statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts; actual results could differ from those estimates. Results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year ending December 31, 2026.

 

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. There were no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies from those disclosed in the Annual Report, other than as described below.

 

Basis of Consolidation

Basis of Consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Streamex Corp. and its consolidated subsidiaries, including variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Changes in the Company’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. See Note 12 — Streamex Ltd. (VIE).

 

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Changes in circumstances could cause actual results to differ materially from these estimates.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currency of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary, ExchangeCo, is the Canadian dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in Canadian dollars are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, while revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. Resulting translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

 

 

Gold Lease Income

Gold Lease Income

 

The Company earns an in-kind gold return on gold made available to a third-party leasing program. Because the arrangement is the deployment of the Company’s own gold for a stated return rather than a contract with a customer, it is outside the scope of ASC 606; income is recognized over the lease term using an effective-yield method, with a gold-denominated receivable recorded until settled in kind. See Note 4 — Gold Lease Income.

 

Marketable Securities

Marketable Securities

 

The Company’s marketable securities consist of equity securities and short-term exchange-traded fund investments measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings, in accordance with ASC 321, Investments — Equity Securities. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices in active markets (Level 1) (see Note 8 — Marketable Securities).

 

Investment Measured at Net Asset Value (“NAV”)

Investment Measured at Net Asset Value (“NAV”)

 

The Company’s investments in entities that are investment companies and calculate net asset value per share are measured at fair value using NAV as a practical expedient and are excluded from the fair value hierarchy. See Note 9 — Investment Measured at NAV for more information.

 

Other Assets — Gold

Other Assets — Gold

 

Gold is recorded at cost, including directly attributable transaction costs, and is classified as a non-current asset. Gold received as in-kind lease yield is added to the gold asset at the fair value of the ounces received on the receipt date. Because the gold backs the Company’s tokenized gold program and is not held for sale in the ordinary course, it is accounted for as a long-lived asset under ASC 360 and tested for impairment when events indicate its carrying amount may not be recoverable; it is not carried at fair value or net realizable value. See Note 10 — Other Assets — Gold.

 

Digital Assets

Digital Assets

 

The Company’s digital assets consist of USDC, a U.S. dollar–backed stablecoin issued by Circle Internet Financial, LLC that is redeemable one-for-one for U.S. dollars from the issuer’s segregated reserves. Because that redemption right is an enforceable claim on the issuer’s underlying assets, USDC is outside the scope of the crypto-asset fair-value model in ASC 350-60, and because it is a financial asset it is not an indefinite-lived intangible asset. The Company therefore accounts for USDC as a receivable under ASC 310, carried at the amount expected to be realized on redemption or conversion — which approximates both cost and fair value given the one-for-one peg — net of any expected credit loss allowance, which has been de minimis.

 

The Company does not treat USDC as cash or a cash equivalent, because it is not legal tender, is not issued or insured by a government or bank, and has no fixed maturity; it is presented separately from cash. USDC is classified as a current asset when the Company expects to realize or use it within its normal operating cycle. Stablecoin accounting continues to evolve, including an active FASB project on whether certain stablecoins may qualify as cash equivalents; the Company monitors this project, which is not yet effective, and will reassess its accounting if new guidance is issued. See Note 11 — Digital Assets.

 

 

Leases

Leases

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. The Company’s leases consist of a single operating lease for its corporate office located in Winter Park, Florida. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and current and non-current operating lease liabilities are presented as separate line items in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term. Operating lease ROU assets also include any lease payments made before commencement and exclude lease incentives. As the Company’s lease does not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at commencement to determine the present value of future payments. Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease only when it is reasonably certain that such option will be exercised.

 

Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has made the accounting policy election to account for short-term leases, including its month-to-month and short-duration office arrangements with terms of 12 months or less, by recognizing the associated lease payments in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term, without recognizing a right-of-use asset or lease liability for those arrangements. The Company’s real estate lease agreement contains lease and non-lease components, for which the Company has made the accounting policy election to account for such components as a single lease component.

 

Noncontrolling interests

Noncontrolling interests

 

Noncontrolling interests represent the equity in consolidated subsidiaries and the consolidated variable interest entity not attributable to the Company, measured under the accumulation method. Results are attributed to the noncontrolling interests based on their ownership during the period, using time-weighted percentages when ownership changes during the period.

 

Concentration of Assets

Concentration of Assets

 

As of June 30, 2026, the Company’s consolidated assets totaled $159,584, of which approximately 19.6% ($31,218) were held by entities domiciled in the United States, approximately 70.7% ($112,881) by entities domiciled in Canada, and approximately 9.7% ($15,485) by entities domiciled in the Cayman Islands. The Canadian assets are held through ExchangeCo, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and relate to the Company’s Streamex Exchange business. These assets consist primarily of goodwill and intangible assets totaled $108,522 and cash of $4,307. The Company’s assets held in the Cayman Islands through Streamex Ltd. consisted primarily of physical gold bullion held at cost of $15,464 as of June 30, 2026.

 

As of June 30, 2026, cash was $5,605, consisting of $1,291 held in the United States, $4,307 held in Canada, and $7 held by Streamex Ltd. in the Cayman Islands.

 

The Company evaluates geographic concentrations in accordance with ASC 275, Risks and Uncertainties, and considers potential exposure to economic, regulatory, and currency-related risks. While the Canadian-based assets and the Cayman Islands-based gold holdings represent a significant portion of consolidated assets, they are not currently subject to material operational, legal, or foreign exchange restrictions. Management believes that the Company is not exposed to heightened risk from geographic concentration, given the nature of the assets, the stability of the jurisdictions involved, and the strategic alignment of the Streamex Exchange business and Streamex Ltd. with the Company’s broader operations.

 

Concentration of Income and Credit Risk

Concentration of Income and Credit Risk

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, all of the Company’s gold lease income of $146 was earned under two gold-denominated arrangements with a single third-party precious-metals counterparty. The Company’s gold-denominated receivable of $54 as of June 30, 2026 was due entirely from the same counterparty. The loss of, or a deterioration in the financial condition of, this counterparty could have a severe near-term effect on the Company’s gold lease income and the realizability of its gold-denominated receivable. The Company recognized no gold lease income during the three or six months ended June 30, 2025.

 

 

Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets

Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets

 

Prepaid expenses and other assets consisted of the following as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

 

   June 30,   December 31, 
   2026   2025 
Common stock issued for services1  $7,123   $14,985 
Advisory and capital markets consulting services2   773    - 
Insurance   64    1,282 
Marketing   51    841 
Other prepaid expenses and other current assets   191    293 
Totals  $8,202   $17,401 

 

(1) In December 2025, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,538,762 shares of its common stock to two third-party consultants in exchange for services to be provided over a one-year contractual term. The aggregate grant-date fair value of the common stock issued was $15,854. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $3,953 and $7,862 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively.
   
(2) See Note 19 — Commitments and Contingencies for information regarding the Company’s GLDY token consulting agreement, the unamortized portion of which is included in advisory and capital markets consulting services above.

 

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

 

The Company computes earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Streamex Corp.’s common stockholders, after deduction of dividends on the Company’s cumulative convertible preferred stock, whether or not declared, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

 

Exchangeable Shares issued by a consolidated subsidiary in connection with the acquisition of Streamex Exchange are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis for shares of the Company’s common stock and participate in earnings and dividends on an equivalent basis with the Company’s common stock. Before November 4, 2025, the Exchangeable Shares were subject to stockholder approval and applicable exchange limitations under Nasdaq listing rules and therefore were not included as common shares outstanding in basic earnings (loss) per common share. Upon stockholder approval on November 4, 2025, the exchange limitations were removed, the Exchangeable Shares were reclassified to permanent equity, and the Exchangeable Shares became eligible for inclusion in basic earnings (loss) per common share on a weighted-average basis beginning on that date. Accordingly, the Exchangeable Shares were not included in basic earnings (loss) per common share for the three or six months ended June 30, 2025. See Note 5 — Business Acquisition and Note 16 — Stockholders’ Equity.

 

Diluted earnings (loss) per common share gives effect to potentially dilutive securities using the treasury stock method or if-converted method, as applicable. Contingently issuable shares are included only when the applicable conditions have been satisfied as of the end of the reporting period. In periods of net loss, basic and diluted loss per common share are the same because the effect of potential common shares would be antidilutive.

 

 

Potential common shares excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share because their effect would have been antidilutive or because the applicable issuance conditions had not been satisfied were as follows:

  

   June 30,   June 30, 
   2026   2025 
Series C convertible preferred stock   501,725    344,763 
Options to purchase common stock   2,921,000    2,736,000 
Performance-based restricted stock units   4,400,000    - 
Warrants to purchase common stock   1,647,885    3,564,982 
Restricted stock units to acquire common stock   5,889,270    1,004,163 
Exchangeable Shares subject to stockholder approval   -    109,070,079 
Totals   15,359,880    116,719,987 

 

The Exchangeable Shares outstanding as of June 30, 2025 were excluded because the issuance of the Company’s common stock upon exchange remained subject to stockholder approval and applicable exchange limitations. Stockholder approval was obtained on November 4, 2025, after which the Exchangeable Shares became eligible for inclusion in basic earnings (loss) per common share on a weighted-average basis. See Note 5 — Business Acquisition.

 

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

 

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. This standard provides all entities with a practical expedient to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the current accounts receivable and current contract assets. ASU 2025-05 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2025-05 in 2026 and the adoption had no material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement in response to longstanding requests from investors for more information about an entity’s expenses. The new standard requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement and disclosures about selling expenses. As amended by ASU 2025-01, ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company has not early adopted ASU 2024-03 and is currently evaluating its effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements

 

In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-03, Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810): Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity), which provides clarifying guidance on determining the accounting acquirer in certain transactions involving VIEs. The update aims to improve consistency and comparability in financial reporting. The guidance will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance will be applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of the amendments and the impact on its future financial statements.

 

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, to modernize the accounting guidance for internal-use software costs. The standard removes all references to software development project stages and instead requires capitalization when (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. ASU 2025-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2025-06.
