New in FY2025

  • RISK FACTORS Risks Related to Cryptocurrencies The further development and acceptance of cryptocurrency networks, including the ETH network, which represent a relatively new and rapidly changing industry, are subject to a variety of factors that are difficult to evaluate.
  • The slowing or stopping of the development or acceptance of cryptocurrency networks, including the ETH network, may adversely affect an investment in the Company.
  • Cryptocurrency such as ETH may be used, among other things, to buy and sell goods and services or to transfer and store value by users.
  • The cryptocurrency networks are a new and rapidly evolving industry of which the ETH network is a prominent, but not unique, part.
  • The growth of the cryptocurrency industry in general, and the ETH network in particular, is subject to a high degree of uncertainty.
  • The factors affecting the further development of the cryptocurrency industry, as well as the ETH network, include: ● continued worldwide growth in the adoption and use of ETH and other cryptocurrencies, including those competitive with ETH; ● government and quasi-government regulation of ETH and other cryptocurrencies and their use, or restrictions on or regulation of access to and operation of the ETH network or similar cryptocurrency systems; ● the maintenance and development of the open-source software protocol of the ETH network; ● changes in consumer demographics and public tastes and preferences; ● the availability and popularity of other forms or methods of buying and selling goods and services, including new means of using fiat currencies; and ● general economic conditions and the regulatory environment relating to cryptocurrencies and cryptocurrency service providers.
  • A decline in the popularity or acceptance of the ETH network and other cryptocurrency networks may harm the price of our Common Stock.
  • There is no assurance that the ETH network, or the service providers necessary to accommodate it, will continue in existence or grow.
  • Furthermore, there is no assurance that the availability of and access to cryptocurrency service providers will not be negatively affected by government regulation or supply and demand of ETH.
  • The digital asset trading platforms on which cryptocurrency trades are relatively new and largely unregulated or may not be complying with existing regulations.
  • Cryptocurrency markets, including the spot market for ETH, are growing rapidly.
  • The digital asset trading platforms through which ETH and other cryptocurrencies trade are new and largely unregulated or may not be complying with existing regulations.
  • These markets are local, national and international and include a broadening range of cryptocurrencies and participants.
  • Significant trading may occur on systems and platforms with minimum predictability.
  • Spot markets may impose daily, weekly, monthly or customer-specific transaction or withdrawal limits or suspend withdrawals entirely, rendering the exchange of ETH for fiat currency difficult or impossible.
  • Participation in spot markets requires users to take on credit risk by transferring ETH or another cryptocurrency from a personal account to a third-party’s account.
  • Digital asset trading platforms do not appear to be subject to, or may not comply with, regulation in a manner similar to other regulated trading platforms, such as national securities exchanges or designated contract markets.
  • Many digital asset trading platforms are unlicensed, are unregulated, operate without extensive supervision by governmental authorities, and do not provide the public with significant information regarding their ownership structure, management team, corporate practices, cybersecurity, and regulatory compliance.
  • In particular, those located outside the United States may be subject to significantly less stringent regulatory and compliance requirements in their local jurisdictions.
  • Digital asset trading platforms may be out of compliance with existing regulations.
  • As a result, trading activity on or reported by these digital asset trading platforms is generally significantly less regulated than trading in regulated U.S. securities and commodities markets and may reflect behavior that would be prohibited in regulated U.S. trading venues.
  • Furthermore, many digital asset trading platforms lack certain safeguards put in place by more traditional exchanges to enhance the stability of trading on the platform and prevent flash crashes, such as limit-down circuit breakers.
  • As a result, the prices of cryptocurrencies such as ETH on digital asset trading platforms may be subject to larger and/or more frequent sudden declines than assets traded on more traditional exchanges.
  • Tools to detect and deter fraudulent or manipulative trading activities (such as market manipulation, front-running of trades, and wash-trading) may not be available to or employed by digital asset trading platforms or may not exist at all.
  • As a result, the marketplace may lose confidence in, or may experience problems relating to, these venues.
  • No digital asset trading platform on which cryptocurrency trades is immune from these risks.
  • The closure or temporary shutdown of digital asset trading platforms due to fraud, business failure, hackers or malware, or government-mandated regulation may reduce confidence in cryptocurrency and can slow down the mass adoption of it.
  • Further, digital asset trading platform failures can have an adverse effect on cryptocurrency markets and the price of cryptocurrency and could therefore have a negative impact on the performance of the Common Stock.
  • Negative perception, a lack of stability in the digital asset trading platforms, manipulation of cryptocurrency trading platforms by customers and/or the closure or temporary shutdown of such trading platforms due to fraud, business failure, hackers or malware, or government-mandated regulation may reduce confidence in cryptocurrency generally and result in greater volatility in the market price of ETH and other cryptocurrency and our Common Stock.
  • Furthermore, the closure or temporary shutdown of a cryptocurrency trading platform may impact the Company’s ability to determine the value of its cryptocurrency holdings.
  • A disruption of the Internet may affect the operation of the cryptocurrency networks, which may adversely affect the cryptocurrency industry and an investment in the Company.
  • The cryptocurrency networks rely on the Internet.
  • A significant disruption of Internet connectivity could disrupt the cryptocurrency networks’ functionality until such disruption is resolved.
  • A disruption in the Internet could adversely affect an investment in the Company.
  • In particular, some variants of cryptocurrencies have experienced a number of denial-of-service attacks, which have led to temporary delays in block creation and cryptocurrency transfers.
  • Cryptocurrencies are also susceptible to border gateway protocol hijacking (“BGP hijacking”).
  • Such an attack can be a very effective way for an attacker to intercept traffic en route to a legitimate destination.
  • BGP hijacking impacts the way different nodes and miners are connected to one another to isolate portions of them from the remainder of the network, which could lead to a risk of the network allowing double-spending and other security issues.
  • If BGP hijacking occurs on any cryptocurrency network, participants may lose faith in the security of cryptocurrency, which could affect cryptocurrency’s value and consequently the value of our Common Stock.
  • Any Internet failures or Internet connectivity-related attacks that impact the ability to transfer cryptocurrency could have a material adverse effect on the price of cryptocurrency and the value of an investment in the Company.

  • RISK FACTORS The Company is engaged in mergers and acquisition activity and may incur significant costs or risks related to execution and integration.
  • The Company has completed several transactions, including the merger of FGF and FGH and the merger of FGF and Strong Global Entertainment, and is continuing to implement initiatives to streamline and simplify its holding company operations, which may include additional acquisitions or divestitures.
  • We also recently announced an agreement for the sale of a signification portion of our reinsurance business.
  • We may incur significant legal, financial advisory, accounting, consulting and other advisory fees, insurance, internal overhead, public company filing fees, and other regulatory fees, printing costs and other related costs.
  • We may also incur expenses in connection with the integration of operations.
  • There are many factors that could affect the total amount or the timing of the integration costs.
  • Moreover, many of the costs that will be incurred are, by their nature, difficult to estimate accurately.
  • These costs may result in the Company taking charges against earnings in future periods.
  • We are integrating multiple mergers, which may be more difficult, costly or time-consuming than expected and the Company may fail to realize the anticipated benefits.
  • The success of the Company will depend, in part, on the Company’s ability to successfully combine and integrate the businesses of FGF and FGH and Strong Global Entertainment in a manner that does not materially disrupt existing operations or result in decreased revenue or reputational harm.
  • It is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of either company’s ongoing businesses, difficulties in integrating operations and systems, including communications systems, administrative and information technology infrastructure and financial reporting and internal control systems, or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect the companies’ ability to maintain relationships with clients, customers and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits and cost savings of the Merger.
  • Integration efforts may also divert management attention and resources.
  • These integration matters could have an adverse effect on the Company.
  • The Company’s future results may suffer if the Company does not effectively manage the combined operations from the mergers.
  • The Company’s future success will depend, in part, upon its ability to manage the combined businesses, which may pose challenges for management, including challenges related to the management and monitoring of new operations and associated increased costs and complexity.
  • There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful or that it will realize the expected operating efficiencies, cost savings, revenue enhancements or other benefits currently anticipated from the Merger.
  • The Company may be unable to retain current personnel.
  • Our capital allocation strategy may not be successful, which could adversely impact our financial condition.
  • We intend to continue allocating part of our cash balances to companies and may engage in mergers, acquisitions and divestitures.
  • If a SPAC fails to complete its initial business transaction within the required time period, it will never generate any operating revenues and our SPAC holding may receive only a fixed dollar amount per share upon redemption, or less than such fixed amount in certain circumstances which could significantly affect our operating results and shareholders’ equity.
  • Such potential loss could have a material effect on our financial results and shareholders’ equity.
  • Our results of operations will fluctuate from period to period and may not be indicative of our long-term prospects.
  • We anticipate that the performance of our merchant banking and managed services will fluctuate from period to period.
  • In addition, because we plan to underwrite products and make investments to achieve favorable return on equity over the long-term, our short-term results of operations may not be indicative of our long-term prospects.
  • Our results of operations may also be adversely impacted by general economic conditions and the conditions and outlook of the markets for merchant banking and managed services.
  • Changes in the value of our equity holdings could have a significant impact on our reported financial results.
  • Our equity holdings comprise a significant portion of our total assets, and we use several methods to determine the appropriate value for each of our holdings.
  • The valuation of our holdings under generally accepted accounting principles involves the use of specialists and relies on inputs, assumptions, and methodologies that can be considered highly subjective and judgmental.
  • For holdings in private companies, there may be limited publicly available information to use as a basis for our estimates.
  • For holdings in companies that are publicly traded, valuations are based on current trading prices, some of which are thinly traded and subject to significant price volatility from quarter to quarter.
  • Any changes to our assumptions and methodologies, or changes in the price of the underlying securities, could have a significant impact on our reported financial results in any given quarterly or annual period.
  • Changes in the value of the holdings we directly own, or indirectly own through our ownership of equity method holdings, could materially affect our income and increase the volatility of our earnings.
  • As of December 31, 2024, our consolidated balance sheet includes approximately $60.1 million related to equity and other holdings held directly by us or indirectly through equity method holdings.
  • Included in the $60.1 million are holdings in FG New America Acquisition Corp, FG Merger Corp, and FGAC, all of which were originally launched as special purpose acquisition companies.
  • FG New America Acquisition Corp. completed its business combination in July 2021 and now operates as OppFi, Inc.
  • Our holdings consists of approximately 358,000 warrants to purchase common shares of OPFI at a price of $11.50 per share.
  • FG Merger Corp completed its business combination in August 2023 and now operates as iCoreConnect, Inc.
  • Our holdings consists of approximately 45,000 common shares of ICCT as well as approximately 1,240,000 warrants to purchase preferred shares of ICCT at a price of $11.50 per share, and approximately 190,000 warrants to purchase preferred shares of ICCT at a price of $15.00 per share.
  • FGAC completed its business combination in September 2024 and now operates as Saltire Capital Ltd.
  • Our holdings consists of approximately 2,600,000 common shares of Saltire and 750,000 preferred shares of Saltire as well as approximately 3,000,000 warrants to purchase common shares of Saltire at a price of $11.50 per share, and approximately 440,000 warrants to purchase common shares of Saltire at a price of $15.00 per share As of December 31, 2024, Aldel Financial II Inc.
