| Description of Business | 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements comprise those of Gold.com, Inc. (also referred to as "we", "us", the "Company", and "Gold.com"), its consolidated subsidiaries, and its joint ventures in which the Company has a controlling interest. Prior to December 2025, Gold.com, Inc. was operating as A-Mark Precious Metals, Inc. Business Segments The Company conducts its operations in three reportable segments: (i) Wholesale Sales & Ancillary Services, (ii) Direct-to-Consumer, and (iii) Secured Lending. See Note 19 for further information regarding our reportable segments. Wholesale Sales & Ancillary Services The Company operates its Wholesale Sales & Ancillary Services segment directly under the "A-Mark" brand and through its consolidated subsidiaries, A-Mark Trading AG (“AMTAG”), Transcontinental Depository Services, LLC ("TDS"), A-M Global Logistics, LLC (“AMGL” or "Logistics"), AM&ST Associates, LLC ("AMST" or the "Silver Towne Mint"), AM/LPM Ventures, LLC, which owns a majority interest in LPM Group Limited ("LPM"), Spectrum Group International, LLC, which was formed in February 2025 to acquire all of the stock of Spectrum Group International, Inc. ("SGI"), Pinehurst Coin Exchange, Inc. ("Pinehurst"), AM Precious Metals Singapore PTE Ltd., and Sunshine Minting, Inc. ("SMI"). The Wholesale Sales & Ancillary Services segment operates as a full-service precious metals company. We offer gold, silver, platinum, and palladium in the form of bars, plates, powder, wafers, grain, ingots, and coins. We sell of coin and bar products in a variety of weights, shapes, and sizes for distribution to dealers and other qualified purchasers. We have a marketing and numismatics showroom in Hong Kong and a trading center in Costa Mesa, California. The trading center for buying and selling precious metals is available to receive orders 24 hours every day, even when many major world commodity markets are closed. We offer our customers a variety of ancillary services, including financing, storage, consignment, logistics, and various customized financial programs. As a U.S. Mint-authorized purchaser of gold, silver, platinum, and palladium coins, we purchase product directly from the U.S. Mint, and also purchase product from other sovereign mints, for sale to our customers. We previously marketed our goods and services to international markets through our AMTAG subsidiary, which operated an overseas office in Vienna, Austria since 2009. We decided to close our office in Vienna effective early fiscal 2027 and have begun the process to dissolve AMTAG. Marketing operations previously conducted in Vienna have been shifted to other company offices. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary TDS, the Company offers a variety of managed storage options for precious metals products to financial institutions, dealers, investors, and collectors around the world. The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary AMGL is based in Las Vegas, Nevada, and provides our customers an array of complementary services, including receiving, handling, inventorying, processing, packing, and shipping of precious metals and custom coins securely. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary AMST, the Company designs and produces minted silver products. Our Silver Towne Mint operations allow us to provide greater product selection to our customers as well as to gain increased access to silver during volatile market environments, which have historically created higher demand for precious metals products. The Company operates LPM, its Asia headquarters, through its subsidiary AM/LPM Ventures, LLC. Based in Hong Kong, LPM offers the Company's full-service precious metals products and services in Asia and internationally. Spectrum Group International, LLC In February 2025, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Spectrum Group International, Inc. ("SGI"), the parent of Stack’s-Bowers Numismatics LLC, d/b/a Stack’s Bowers Galleries ("Stack's Bowers Galleries"). Stack's Bowers Galleries is one of the world's largest rare coin and currency auction houses and a leading dealer specializing in numismatic and bullion products, and is the majority owner of Spectrum Wine, a global auctioneer, retailer, and storage provider of fine and rare wine. SGI's financial results attributable to its wholesale operations are included in our Wholesale Sales & Ancillary Services segment, and the financial results attributable to its auction and retail operations are included in our Direct-to-Consumer segment. Total consideration to acquire SGI was $103.3 million, consisting of $46.0 million in cash and 1,671,654 shares of our common stock paid to the selling shareholders of SGI, repayment of debt obligations held by SGI as of the acquisition date of $11.0 million, $0.4 million related to the settlement of pre-existing payables due to the Company, and $0.4 million of noncontrolling interest in consolidated subsidiaries of SGI. 1,181,548 shares of the share consideration issued at the acquisition date were reissuances of our treasury stock. Of the share consideration, 66,872 shares were subject to a holdback to satisfy potential indemnification obligations, and were issued, net of any claims, equally at the nine and 18 month anniversaries of the acquisition date. Concurrently with the acquisition of SGI, we issued equity awards to key SGI management. We incurred $1.7 million of transaction costs related to the acquisition of SGI, which are shown as a component of selling, general, and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of income. The financial results of SGI were included in our consolidated financial statements as of the acquisition date; these amounts were not material to our consolidated financial statements. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded based on valuations derived from estimated fair value assessment and assumptions. While we believe that our estimates and assumptions underlying the valuations are reasonable, different estimates or assumptions could result in different valuations assigned to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the resulting amount of goodwill. The following table summarizes the purchase price recorded and fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed through our acquisition of SGI as of the acquisition date (in thousands):
We accounted for the acquisition of SGI as a business combination and determined that (i) SGI was a business which combines inputs and processes to create outputs, and (ii) substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired was not concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. We measured the identifiable assets and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values separately from goodwill. Through the acquisition of SGI, we acquired intangible assets representing existing customer relationships, developed technology, in-process research and development ("IPR&D") and trade names. The existing customer relationships and developed technology acquired were determined to have weighted-average useful lives of 5.0 years and 4.0 years, respectively. The fair value of the customer relationships was estimated using an attrition methodology which considers the estimated future discounted cash flows to be derived from the existing customers as of the acquisition date. The fair value of the developed technology and IPR&D were estimated using the cost to recreate method. The fair value of the trade names was estimated using a relief-from-royalty approach. Unfavorable lease positions are presented net of the corresponding right of use asset. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. The acquisition of SGI resulted in the recognition of $13.8 million of goodwill, which we believe relates primarily to the resulting synergies of utilizing the Company's established integrated precious metals platform with SGI's underlying customer base and our ability to expand operations into adjacent markets. The goodwill created as a result of the acquisition of SGI is not deductible for tax purposes. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 assumes that the acquisition of SGI occurred as of July 1, 2023 (in thousands):
The above pro forma supplemental information does not purport to be indicative of what the Company's operations would have been had the acquisition occurred on July 1, 2023, and should not be considered indicative of future operating results. The Company believes the assumptions used provide a reasonable basis for reflecting the significant pro forma effects directly attributable to the acquisition of SGI. The unaudited pro forma information accounts for: (i) the elimination of transactions between the Company and SGI, and (ii) adjustments to the amortization expense resulting from the estimated fair value of the acquired finite-lived intangible assets, acquisition costs, compensation expenses, and the resulting impact to the income tax provision. Pinehurst In 2019, the Company acquired its initial 10% ownership interest in Pinehurst Coin Exchange, Inc. ("Pinehurst"). In 2021, the Company made an incremental investment to increase its ownership interest in Pinehurst to 49%. In February 2025, the Company acquired the additional 51% ownership interest in Pinehurst it did not previously own for upfront consideration of $6.5 million, contingent consideration of an additional $5.3 million upon the achievement of certain performance benchmarks, repayment of debt obligations held by Pinehurst as of the acquisition date of $16.9 million, and $4.3 million related to the settlement of pre-existing receivables due from the Company. Founded in 2005, Pinehurst services the wholesale and retail marketplace and is one of the nation's largest e-commerce retailers of modern and numismatic certified coins on eBay. Pinehurst's financial results attributable to its wholesale operations are included in our Wholesale Sales & Ancillary Services segment, and the financial results attributable to its retail operations are included in our Direct-to-Consumer segment. The acquisition of the controlling interest in Pinehurst was accounted for as a business combination achieved in stages. As a result of the change in control, the Company was required to remeasure its pre-existing equity investment in Pinehurst at fair value prior to consolidation. We estimated the fair value of our 49% pre-existing ownership interest in Pinehurst to be $6.9 million. The remeasurement resulted in a net pretax loss of $7.0 million, which is presented in the Company's consolidated statements of income as remeasurement loss on pre-existing equity interests. The value of the pre-existing equity as of the acquisition date was based on a valuation derived from estimated fair value assessments and assumptions. These fair value assessments were determined using a market approach. Concurrently with the acquisition of Pinehurst, we assumed a promissory note for $3.1 million with the former majority owner of Pinehurst, and entered into a consulting agreement with him through 2028. We incurred $0.2 million of transaction costs related to the acquisition of Pinehurst, which are shown as a component of selling, general, and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of income. The financial results of Pinehurst were included in our consolidated financial statements as of the acquisition date; these amounts were not material to our consolidated financial statements. We may be required to pay contingent consideration up to $5.3 million in cash in connection with the acquisition of Pinehurst if certain pre-tax earnings targets are met through the third anniversary of the acquisition as well as if certain net tangible asset thresholds were met as of June 30, 2025. As of the acquisition date, the fair value of this contingent consideration was $0.7 million. The material factors that may impact the fair value of the contingent consideration, and therefore, this liability, are the probabilities and timing of achieving the related targets, which are estimated at each reporting date with changes reflected in earnings. As of June 30, 2025, the fair value of the contingent consideration remained at $0.7 million, which was classified as accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded based on valuations derived from estimated fair value assessment and assumptions. While we believe that our estimates and assumptions underlying the valuations are reasonable, different estimates or assumptions could result in different valuations assigned to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the resulting amount of goodwill. The following table summarizes the purchase price recorded and fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed through our acquisition of Pinehurst as of the acquisition date (in thousands):

The fair value of the trade names was estimated using a relief-from-royalty approach. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. The acquisition of Pinehurst resulted in the recognition of $2.8 million of goodwill, which we believe relates primarily to the resulting synergies of utilizing our established integrated precious metals platform with Pinehurst's expanded product offering. The goodwill created as a result of the acquisition of Pinehurst is not deductible for tax purposes. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 assumes that the acquisition of Pinehurst occurred as of July 1, 2023 (in thousands):

Sunshine Minting In December 2020, the Company acquired 31.1% ownership interest in Sunshine Minting, Inc. ("SMI"). In May 2021, the Company made an incremental investment to increase its ownership interest in SMI to 44.9%. In April 2026, the Company acquired the remaining 55.1% ownership interest in SMI for upfront consideration of $22.0 million. Founded in 1979, SMI is a leader in the supply of blanks, coins, medallions, as well as a wide array of custom minted products, and operates minting facilities in Henderson, Nevada, and Shanghai, China. The acquisition of the controlling interest in SMI was accounted for as a business combination achieved in stages. As a result of the change in control, the Company was required to remeasure its pre-existing equity investment in SMI at fair value prior to consolidation. We estimated the fair value of our 44.9% pre-existing ownership interest in SMI to be $17.9 million. The remeasurement resulted in a net pretax gain of $4.1 million, which is presented in the Company's consolidated statements of income as remeasurement gain on pre-existing equity interests. The value of the pre-existing equity as of the acquisition date was based on a valuation derived from estimated fair value assessments and assumptions. These fair value assessments were determined using a market approach. Concurrently with the acquisition of SMI, we entered into a consulting agreement with former majority owner of SMI through March 2029. The transaction costs related to the acquisition of SMI were not significant. The financial results of SMI were included in our consolidated financial statements as of the acquisition date as part of our Wholesale Sales & Ancillary Services segment; these amounts were not material to our consolidated financial statements. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded based on valuations derived from estimated fair value assessment and assumptions. While we believe that our estimates and assumptions underlying the valuations are reasonable, different estimates or assumptions could result in different valuations assigned to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the resulting amount of goodwill. The following table summarizes the purchase price recorded and fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed through our acquisition of SMI as of the acquisition date (in thousands):
We accounted for the acquisition of SMI as a business combination and determined that (i) SMI was a business which combines inputs and processes to create outputs, and (ii) substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired was not concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. Our purchase price allocation for the acquisition of SMI is preliminary and subject to revision as additional information about fair value of assets and liabilities becomes available, primarily related to information pertaining to working capital and tax balances. Additional information that existed as of the acquisition date but at the time was unknown to us may become known to us during the remainder of the remeasurement period, a period not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date. We measured the identifiable assets and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values separately from goodwill. Through the acquisition of SMI, we acquired intangible assets representing existing customer relationships, proprietary knowhow, and trade names. The existing customer relationships and the proprietary knowhow acquired were determined to have a useful life of 15.0 years. The fair value of the customer relationships was estimated using an attrition methodology which considers the estimated future discounted cash flows to be derived from the existing customers as of the acquisition date. The fair value of the proprietary knowhow and trade names were estimated using a relief-from-royalty approach. Favorable lease positions are presented net of the corresponding right of use asset. The Company acquired a building through its acquisition of SMI that was classified as held for sale as of the acquisition date. In June 2026, the Company sold this building at the recorded value upon acquisition resulting in no gain or loss on the sale. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. The acquisition of SMI resulted in the recognition of $6.0 million of goodwill, which we believe relates primarily to the resulting synergies of utilizing our established integrated precious metals platform with SMI's minting and refining operations. The goodwill created as a result of the acquisition of SMI is not deductible for tax purposes. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the year ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 assumes that the acquisition of SMI occurred as of July 1, 2024 (in thousands):
The above pro forma supplemental information does not purport to be indicative of what the Company's operations would have been had the acquisition occurred on July 1, 2024, and should not be considered indicative of future operating results. The Company believes the assumptions used provide a reasonable basis for reflecting the significant pro forma effects directly attributable to the acquisition of SMI. The unaudited pro forma information accounts for: (i) the elimination of transactions between the Company and SMI, and (ii) adjustments to the amortization expense resulting from the estimated fair value of the acquired finite-lived intangible assets, and the resulting impact to the income tax provision. Direct-to-Consumer The Company operates its Direct-to-Consumer segment through its wholly-owned subsidiaries JM Bullion, Inc. (“JMB”), Goldline, Inc. (“Goldline”), SGI, Pinehurst, AMS Holding, LLC ("AMS"), AM LPM Singapore PTE Ltd., Monex Deposit Company ("Monex") and through its investment in Silver Gold Bull, Inc. ("SGB"). As of June 30, 2026, JMB had several wholly-owned subsidiaries, including: Buy Gold and Silver Corp. ("BGASC"), BX Corporation ("BullionMax"), Gold Price Group, Inc. (“GPG”), Silver.com, Inc. (“Silver.com”), Provident Metals Corp. (“PMC”), and CyberMetals Corp. ("CyberMetals"). Goldline, Inc. owns 100% of AM IP Assets, LLC ("AMIP"). SGB and Goldline each have a 50% ownership interest in Precious Metals Purchasing Partners, LLC ("PMPP"). As the context requires, references in these notes to JMB may include BGASC, BullionMax, GPG, Silver.com, PMC, and CyberMetals, and references to Goldline may include AMIP and PMPP. JM Bullion, Inc. JMB is a leading e-commerce retailer providing access to a broad array of gold, silver, copper, platinum, and palladium products through its websites. JMB owns and operates numerous websites targeting specific niches within the precious metals retail market, including JMBullion.com, ProvidentMetals.com, Silver.com, CyberMetals.com, GoldPrice.org, SilverPrice.org, BGASC.com, BullionMax.com, and Gold.com. Typically, JMB offers approximately 8,000 different products during a fiscal year, measured by stock keeping units or SKUs, on its websites. This number can vary over time, particularly when demand is high and certain SKUs may be out of stock. In April 2022, JMB commercially launched the CyberMetals online platform, where customers can purchase and sell fractional shares of digital gold, silver, platinum, and palladium bars in a range of denominations. CyberMetals’ customers have the option to convert their digital holdings to fabricated precious metals products via an integrated redemption flow with JMB. These products may be designated by the customer for storage by the Company or shipped directly to the customer. Goldline, Inc. The Company acquired Goldline in August 2017 through an asset purchase transaction with Goldline, LLC, which had been in operation since 1960. Goldline is a direct retailer of precious metals to the investor community, and markets its precious metal products on television, radio, and the internet, as well as through customer service outreach. Goldline’s subsidiary AMIP manages its intellectual property. PMPP was formed in fiscal 2019 pursuant to terms of a joint venture agreement with SGB, for the purpose of purchasing precious metals from the partners' retail customers, and then reselling the acquired products back to affiliates of the partners. PMPP commenced its operations in fiscal 2020. Silver Gold Bull, Inc. In 2014, the Company acquired its initial ownership interest in SGB, a leading e-commerce precious metals retailer in Canada. Through its website, SilverGoldBull.com, SGB offers a variety of products from gold, silver, platinum, and palladium in the form of bars, coins and rounds, as well as certified coins from mints around the world. In 2018 and 2022, the Company made incremental investments to increase its ownership interest in SGB to 47.4% as of June 2022. Also in June 2022, the Company acquired an option to purchase an additional 27.6% of the outstanding equity of SGB to bring the Company's ownership interest up to 75%. In June 2024, the Company exercised part of its option and acquired an additional 8% ownership interest in SGB for $9.6 million, increasing its ownership interest to 55.4%, at which point SGB became a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. The increased investment in SGB allows the Company to continue its strategy to further expand internationally, particularly in Canada. In June 2024, SGB declared a $15.9 million dividend to existing shareholders based on certain levels of working capital. As of June 30, 2025, the dividend was paid in full, including a dividend paid to the Company from SGB in September 2024 of $7.5 million. Spectrum Group International, LLC SGI, which we acquired in February 2025, is the parent company of Stack's Bowers Galleries, which is one of the world's largest rare coin and currency auction houses and a leading wholesale and retail dealer specializing in numismatic and bullion products. Its auction services unit conducts in-person, internet and specialized auctions of consigned and owned items and has sold a wide range of the most important rarities and numismatic collections over its distinguished history. SGI's financial results attributable to its wholesale operations are included in our Wholesale Sales & Ancillary Services segment, and the financial results attributable to its auction and retail operations are included in our Direct-to-Consumer segment. Pinehurst Coin Exchange, Inc. In February 2025, the Company acquired the remaining outstanding equity interests in Pinehurst it did not previously own. Pinehurst is a leading precious metals broker that services the wholesale and retail marketplace and is one of the nation’s largest e-commerce retailers of modern and numismatic coins on eBay. Pinehurst operates the www.PinehurstCoins.com and www.ModernCoinMart.com websites. Pinehurst's financial results attributable to its wholesale operations are included in our Wholesale Sales & Ancillary Services segment, and the financial results attributable to its retail operations are included in our Direct-to-Consumer segment. AMS Holding, LLC On April 1, 2025, the Company acquired the 90% of AMS it did not previously own, for upfront consideration of $51.0 million in cash, contingent consideration with a fair value of $5.9 million, and $13.9 million related to the settlement of pre-existing liabilities due to the Company. The foundation of AMS is a sales and marketing engine that brings together four decades of collector relationships with modern technology and compelling coin offerings that are sold through the GOVMINT brand. The acquisition of the controlling interest in AMS was accounted for as a business combination achieved in stages. As a result of the change in control, the Company was required to remeasure its pre-existing equity investment in AMS at fair value prior to consolidation. We estimated the fair value of our 10% pre-existing ownership interest in AMS to be $6.3 million. The remeasurement resulted in a net pretax gain of $1.9 million, which is presented in the Company's consolidated statements of income as remeasurement gain (loss) on pre-existing equity interests. The value of the pre-existing equity as of the acquisition date was based on a valuation derived from estimated fair value assessments and assumptions. These fair value assessments were determined using a market approach. Concurrent with the acquisition of AMS, we issued equity awards to key AMS management. We incurred $2.4 million of transaction costs related to the acquisition of AMS, which are shown as a component of selling, general, and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of income. The financial results of AMS were included in our consolidated financial statements as of the acquisition date; these amounts were not material to our consolidated financial statements. We may be required to pay contingent consideration of up to an additional $9.0 million in cash based upon the achievement of certain performance benchmarks. Selling shareholders may also receive up to an additional $3.0 million in cash based upon the achievement of financial targets when certain inventory is sold. As of the acquisition date, the fair value of this contingent consideration was $5.9 million. The material factors that may impact the fair value of the contingent consideration, and therefore, this liability, are the probabilities and timing of achieving the related targets, which are estimated at each reporting date with changes reflected in earnings. As of June 30, 2025, the fair value of the contingent consideration remained at $5.9 million, of which $3.2 million was classified as accrued liabilities, with the remainder classified as other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded based on valuations derived from estimated fair value assessment and assumptions. While we believe that our estimates and assumptions underlying the valuations are reasonable, different estimates or assumptions could result in different valuations assigned to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the resulting amount of goodwill. The following table summarizes the purchase price recorded and fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed through our acquisition of AMS as of the acquisition date (in thousands):
We accounted for the acquisition of AMS as a business combination and determined that (i) AMS was a business which combines inputs and processes to create outputs, and (ii) substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired was not concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. We measured the identifiable assets and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values separately from goodwill. Through the acquisition of AMS, we acquired intangible assets representing existing customer relationships and trade names. The existing customer relationships acquired were determined to have a useful life of 5 years. The fair value of the customer relationships was estimated using an attrition methodology which considers the estimated future discounted cash flows to be derived from the existing customers as of the acquisition date. The fair value of the trade names was estimated using a relief-from-royalty approach. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. The acquisition of AMS resulted in the recognition of $12.1 million of goodwill, which we believe relates primarily to the resulting synergies of utilizing the Company's established integrated precious metals platform with AMS's expanded product offering. Of the goodwill created as a result of the acquisition of AMS, $4.3 million is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 assumes that the acquisition of AMS occurred as of July 1, 2023 (in thousands):
The above pro forma supplemental information does not purport to be indicative of what the Company's operations would have been had the transaction occurred on July 1, 2023, and should not be considered indicative of future operating results. The Company believes the assumptions used provide a reasonable basis for reflecting the significant pro forma effects directly attributable to the acquisition of AMS. The unaudited pro forma information accounts for: (i) the elimination of transactions between the Company and AMS and (ii) adjustments to the amortization expense resulting from the estimated fair value of the acquired finite-lived intangible assets, acquisition costs, cash and share-based compensation expense, remeasurement gains, and the resulting impact to the income tax provision. Monex In November 2025, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, all of the equity interests of Monex Deposit Company, a California limited liability company, and certain related entities ("Monex"). Monex was founded in 1987 and is a leading precious metals dealer providing investors with access to gold, silver, platinum and palladium through a full-service platform along with secure vault storage. The Company's acquisition of Monex was consummated in January 2026. The purchase price paid by the Company was $49.9 million, consisting of $19.0 million in cash, 560,000 shares of the Company's common stock, contingent consideration of an additional $5.2 million upon the achievement of specified levels of cumulative pre-tax income, and $6.5 million related to the settlement of pre-existing payables due to the Company. Of the common stock, 400,000 shares were issued and delivered on the closing date and 160,000 shares are withheld by the Company for a period of 24 months following the closing date for purposes of securing the indemnification obligations of the sellers. The transaction costs related to the acquisition of Monex were not significant. The financial results of Monex were included in our consolidated financial statements as of the acquisition date as part of our Direct-to-Consumer segment; these amounts were not material to our consolidated financial statements. We may be required to pay contingent consideration up to $20.0 million in cash in connection with the acquisition of Monex if certain pre-tax net income targets are met through December 31, 2027. As of the acquisition date, the fair value of this contingent consideration was $5.2 million. The material factors that may impact the fair value of the contingent consideration, and therefore, this liability, are the probabilities and timing of achieving the related targets, which are estimated at each reporting date with changes reflected in earnings. As of June 30, 2026, the fair value of the contingent consideration was $0.4 million, which was classified as accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded based on valuations derived from estimated fair value assessment and assumptions. While we believe that our estimates and assumptions underlying the valuations are reasonable, different estimates or assumptions could result in different valuations assigned to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the resulting amount of goodwill. The following table summarizes the purchase price recorded and fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed through our acquisition of Monex as of the acquisition date (in thousands):
We accounted for the acquisition of Monex as a business combination and determined that (i) Monex was a business which combines inputs and processes to create outputs, and (ii) substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired was not concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. Our purchase price allocation for the acquisition of Monex is preliminary and subject to revision as additional information about fair value of assets and liabilities becomes available, primarily related to information pertaining to working capital and tax balances. Additional information that existed as of the acquisition date but at the time was unknown to us may become known to us during the remainder of the remeasurement period, a period not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date. We measured the identifiable assets and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values separately from goodwill. Through the acquisition of Monex, we acquired intangible assets representing existing customer relationships, developed technology, and trade names. The existing customer relationships and developed technology acquired were determined to have useful lives of 5.0 years and 4.0 years, respectively. The fair value of the customer relationships was estimated using an attrition methodology which considers the estimated future discounted cash flows to be derived from the existing customers as of the acquisition date. The fair value of the developed technology was estimated using the cost to recreate method. The fair value of the trade names was estimated using a relief-from-royalty approach. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. The acquisition of Monex resulted in the recognition of $16.2 million of goodwill, which we believe relates primarily to the resulting synergies of utilizing Gold.com's established integrated precious metals platform with Monex's underlying customer base and operations. The goodwill created as a result of the acquisition of Monex is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
