The following table sets forth the significant components of the deferred tax assets of the Company as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

      
   As of

Deferred tax assets:          
NOL – US tax regime  $90,640   $897 
NOL – British Virgin Islands regime        
NOL – Hong Kong tax regime       5,524 
    90,640    6,421 
Less: valuation allowance   (90,640)   (6,421)
Deferred tax assets, net  $   $ 

 

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had US net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $90,640, which are available to offset future taxable income. These NOL carryforwards expire in varying amounts beginning in 2026 through 2045. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets, as management has determined that it is more likely than not that the tax benefits associated with these deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had no cumulative net operating losses under Hong Kong tax regime, which can be carried forward to offset future taxable income at no expiry.

 

The following table summarizes the changes in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets:

   
Balance, December 31, 2025  $6,421 
Addition during the period   84,219 
Balance, June 30, 2026  $90,640 

 

Valuation allowances

 

Deferred taxes as of June 30, 2026 were reduced by a valuation allowance relating to net operating losses. In assessing the likelihood of realizing deferred tax assets, management considers factors such as prior earnings history, expected future earnings and the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Deferred taxes are determined by utilizing the asset and liability method based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial accounting and tax bases of assets and liabilities under the applicable tax laws. Valuation allowances are provided if, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In the determination of the appropriate valuation allowances, the Company has considered the most recent projections of future business results and taxable income by jurisdiction. Actual results may vary in comparison to current projections. After consideration of the evidence described above, management believes it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. Interest and penalty charges, if any, related to income taxes would be classified as a component of the provision for income taxes in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company does not expect any significant change in its uncertain tax positions in the next twelve months.
