Background and business

Hapi Metaverse Inc. (the "Company" or "Group"), was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 7, 2012. The Company's initial business plan was to be a financial acquisition intermediary which would serve buyers and sellers for companies that are in highly fragmented industries. Our Board determined it was in the best interest of the Company to expand our business plan.

Since 2018, one of our main developments was a broadening of our scope of planned operations into a digital transformation technology business. As a digital transformation technology business, we are committed to enabling enterprises we work with to engage in a digital transformation by providing consulting, implementation and development services with various technologies, including instant messaging, blockchain, eCommerce, social media and payment solutions. We continue to advise businesses in network marketing and brands in block chain services and mobile collaboration.

We are still planning to expand serving business-to-business (B2B) needs in e-commerce, collaboration and supply chains. We will help enterprises and community users to transform their business models with digital economy in a more effective manner. With our platform, users can discover and build their own communities and create valuable content. Enterprises can in turn enhance the user experience with premium content, which is facilitated by the transactions of every stakeholder via e-commerce. The Company started to generate revenue from this business in July 2024.

Our technology platform consists of instant messaging systems, social media, e-commerce and payment systems, and network marketing platforms. We are focused on business-to-business solutions such as enterprise messaging and workflow. We have successfully implemented several strategic platform developments for clients, including a mobile front-end solution for network marketing, a hotel e-commerce platform for Asia and a real estate agent management platform in China. We have also enhanced our technological capability from mobile application development to include blockchain architectural design, allowing mobile-friendly front-end solutions to integrate with software platforms. Our main digital assets at the present time are our applications. We continue to strengthen our technology architecture and develop Application Development Interfaces (APIs) for collaboration partners such as network marketing back end service providers. In addition, we are continuing our development activities in blockchain in order to prepare for future client opportunities.

The Company has historically relied on AIL, our former majority stockholder, and subsequently Alset Inc., our current majority stockholder and direct corporate parent, as its principal source of funding. Alset Inc. has committed to continue providing financial support as necessary to enable the Company to meet its obligations and has agreed not to demand repayment of amounts due for at least twelve months from the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. While management believes this financial support will provide sufficient liquidity to meet the Company's near-term operating needs, the Company continues to pursue additional sources of capital through equity or debt financings to support its long-term growth strategy and reduce its reliance on related-party financing. There can be no assurance that additional financing, whether from existing stockholders or third parties, will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Any future equity financing may be dilutive to existing stockholders, and debt financing could impose restrictive covenants that may adversely affect the Company's operations. If the Company is unable to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms when needed, it may be required to reduce or delay planned business initiatives and growth opportunities.

Our Plan of Operations

We believe that we have significant opportunities to further enhance the value we deliver to our users. We intend to pursue the following plan of operations:

	●	operation of global e-commerce marketplace bringing quality lifestyle products;
	●	partner with technology providers in AI and robotics to offer robotics solutions and services in the food and beverage sector, retail, and industries like cleaning and security; and
	●	offer digital transformation solutions for the retail sector.

	●	together with VEII, we built software solutions that integrate with retail solutions, including electronics sales label system control services and a sales label management portal; and
	●	continued our developments in artificial intelligence in the area of customer service and call center support.

Over the next twelve months we plan to further enhance our software solutions to fit the needs of direct-to-consumer commerce with AI and develop more strategic partnerships in robotics.

Our Business Model and User Monetization Plan

We plan to generate revenue through the following:

	●	IT services for the retail business sector; and
	●	robotics and artificial intelligence applications.

Our Competitiveness in the Businesses in Which we Operate

With the focus on being a service provider, our competitiveness is strengthened by:

	●	refinement of the methodology for project management and development through continuous improvement through project engagement;
	●	continuous new technological development such as blockchain enabled services, metaverse and artificial intelligence; and
	●	operating within effective overhead to reduce operational risk.

Our Challenges

Our ability to execute our growth strategies is subject to risks and uncertainties, including those relating to our ability to:

	●	raise additional funding for the continuous development of our technology and projects and to pursue our business strategy;
	●	maintain the trusted status of our ecosystem;

Please see "Risk Factors" and other information included in this report for a detailed discussion on the above and other challenges and risks.

Our Key Competitive Strengths

We believe building the following will provide us with some key competitive strengths:

	●	understanding of local market needs - establishing brand presence for local enterprises and communities based on the implementation know how for the early adopters; and
	●	lean organizational structure to effectively adapt to the growth and contraction of our operations based on market and sales pipelines.

Our Technology

Based on our core technology infrastructure, we are building up additional functions on top of this stable and scalable infrastructure. The system architecture is designed in modular form so that we continue to add new applications modules while we are growing our customer base. In addition, we should also be able to incorporate third party application modules to effectively continue building new services to facilitate digital transformation for various industries such as retail, distribution and financial services.

Key aspects or strengths of our technology include:

	●	scalable infrastructure;
	●	quick adaptation to latest technology in the area of robotics, A.I., block chain and metaverse; and
	●	dedication to continuous improvement of user experience in local context.

The Company expects continued improvement in its Food and Beverage business. Nevertheless, current conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that this substantial doubt is alleviated by the ongoing financial support from Alset Inc., which is expected to provide sufficient liquidity for the Company to meet its obligations for at least the next twelve months from the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company has obtained a written letter of financial support from Alset Inc., the Company's direct corporate parent, under which Alset Inc. has committed to provide any additional funding required by the Company during that period.

These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in the accounting policies described below have the greatest potential impact on our consolidated financial statements, so we consider these to be our critical accounting policies. Because of the uncertainty inherent in these matters, actual results could differ from the estimates we use in applying the critical accounting policies. Certain of these critical accounting policies affect working capital account balances, including the policies for revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, and income taxes. These policies require that we make estimates in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements as of a given date.

Within the context of these critical accounting policies, we are not currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances that would result in materially different amounts being reported.

Revenue recognition

Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity's contracts to provide goods or services or catering service to customers.

Revenue is recognized when (or as) the Company transfers promised goods or services or catering service to its customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services, which occurs when (or as) the Company satisfies its contractual obligations and transfers over control of the promised goods or services or catering service to its customers. To determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized for arrangements determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identification of the promised goods or services or catering service in the contract by analyzing customer perspective, immateriality, implicit promises, setup activities, and marketing incentives; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services or catering service are performance obligations including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract by analyze the contract from the perspective of the customer; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration by the expected value method and the most likely amount method; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations based on a relative stand-alone selling price basis, or the price at which the Company would sell the good or service separately to similar customers in similar circumstances; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation. This should only be done once the transaction is complete and your obligation is fulfilled. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services or catering service it transfers to the customer.

Costs to obtain or fulfill a contract are capitalized and expensed over the life of the contract.

The Company began generating revenue from the F&B business by providing quality catering services in the People's Republic of China ("PRC") since January 2023, and in Taiwan since April 2024. On September 1, 2026, the Company ceased operations of the café in Taiwan.

Transfers of Cash to and from Our Subsidiaries

Our equity structure is a direct holding company structure. Within our direct holding company structure, the cross-border transfer of funds between our corporate entities is legal and compliant with the laws and regulations of the PRC. After the foreign investors' funds enter Hapi Metaverse Inc., the funds can only be transferred to the PRC operating companies through Hapi Cafe Limited ("HCHK"), the immediate holding company of the PRC operating companies. Hapi Metaverse Inc. is permitted under Delaware law to provide funding to all the subsidiaries, except for the PRC operating companies, through loans or capital contributions without restrictions on the amount of the funds, subject to satisfaction of applicable government registration, approval and filing requirements. All the subsidiaries except for the PRC operating companies are also permitted to provide funding between subsidiaries or to Hapi Metaverse Inc. through loans or dividend distribution without restrictions on the amount of the funds. HCHK is permitted by the laws of the PRC to provide funding in the form of loans or capital injection to Guangdong LeFu Wealth Investment Consulting Co., Ltd. ("HCCN") and its subsidiaries for their daily operations.

HCCN is permitted by the laws of the PRC to distribute profit in the form of dividends only to its immediate holding company, HCHK.

As of September 30, 2026, the Company received $649,502 from Alset Inc. and its' subsidiaries, which was included in the amount $719,800 referred to "Advance from related parties" under Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows of Consolidated Financial Statements, of which a total of $384,760 was transferred to its Hong Kong subsidiaries for their daily operations $257,149 to Hotapp International Limited and $127,611 to Hapi Café Limited. In the first nine months of 2026, $214,920 from HCHK were transferred to HCCN. The funds transferred to HCCN, the PRC subsidiary of the Company, were mainly for capital injection to HCCN and for the daily operations of HCCN and HCDG. A total of $2,562 in foreign exchange gain was generated during the period of 2026. For details, please refer to "Item. 8 Financial Statements - Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 and 2025" set forth in this Quarterly Report.

We currently intend to retain all available funds and future earnings, if any, for the operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate declaring or paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination related to our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors after considering our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, contractual requirements, business prospects and other factors the Board of Directors deems relevant, and subject to the restrictions contained in any future financing instruments.

Subject to the Delaware General Corporation Law and our bylaws, our Board of Directors may authorize and declare a dividend to shareholders at such time and in such amount as it deems appropriate, provided that the Board reasonably believes that, immediately following the dividend, our assets will exceed our liabilities and we will be able to pay our debts as they become due.

To address persistent capital outflows and the RMB's depreciation against the U.S. dollar in the fourth quarter of 2016, the People's Bank of China and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, have implemented a series of capital control measures in the subsequent months, including stricter vetting procedures for China-based companies to remit foreign currency for overseas acquisitions, dividend payments and shareholder loan repayments. The PRC government may continue to strengthen its capital controls and our PRC subsidiaries' dividends and other distributions may be subject to tightened scrutiny in the future. The PRC government also imposes controls on the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of the PRC. Therefore, we may experience difficulties in completing the administrative procedures necessary to obtain and remit foreign currency for the payment of dividends from our profits, if any. Furthermore, if our subsidiaries in the PRC incur debt on their own in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends or make other payments. If we or our subsidiaries are unable to receive all of the revenues from our operations, we may be unable to pay dividends on our common stock.

Cash dividends, if any, on our common stock will be paid in U.S. dollars. If we are considered a PRC tax resident enterprise for tax purposes, any dividends we pay to our overseas shareholders may be regarded as China-sourced income and as a result may be subject to PRC withholding tax at up to 10%.

As of the date hereof, our PRC subsidiaries have not made any transfers or distributions. As of the date hereof, no cash or asset transfers have occurred between the Company and its subsidiaries. We do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Furthermore, as of the date hereof, no cash generated from one subsidiary is used to fund another subsidiary's operations and we do not anticipate any difficulties or limitations on our ability to transfer cash between subsidiaries. We have also not installed any cash management policies that dictate the amount of such funds and how such funds are transferred.

PRC Regulations

In accordance with PRC regulations on Enterprises with Foreign Investment and their articles of association, a foreign-invested enterprise ("FIE") established in the PRC is required to provide statutory reserves, which are appropriated from net profit, as reported in the FIE's PRC statutory accounts. A FIE is required to allocate at least 10% of its annual after-tax profit to the surplus reserve until such reserve has reached 50% of its respective registered capital (based on the FIE's PRC statutory accounts). The aforementioned reserves may only be used for specific purposes and may not be distributed as cash dividends. Until such contribution of capital is satisfied, the FIE is not allowed to repatriate profits to its stockholders, unless approved by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange. After satisfaction of this requirement, the remaining funds may be appropriated at the discretion of the FIE's board of directors. Our subsidiary, HCCN is the PRC holding company of the other PRC subsidiaries, qualifies as an FIE and is therefore subject to the above-mandated regulations on distributable profits.

Additionally, in accordance with PRC corporate law, a domestic enterprise is required to maintain a surplus reserve of at least 10% of its annual after-tax profit until such reserve has reached 50% of its respective registered capital based on the enterprise's PRC statutory accounts. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and may not be distributed as cash dividends. HCDG is the subsidiary of HCCN that conducts operations in the PRC. These companies were established as domestic enterprises; therefore, each is subject to the above-mentioned restrictions on distributable profits.

As a result of PRC laws and regulations that require annual appropriations of 10% of after-tax income to be set aside, prior to payment of dividends, in a general reserve fund, the Company's PRC subsidiaries are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets to the Company as a dividend or otherwise.

Income taxes

Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. Deferred income taxes are recognized when temporary differences exist between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Net operating loss carry forwards and credits are applied using enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more-likely-than-not that a portion of or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as non-current in accordance with ASC 740.

The impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return is recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant tax authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Interest and penalties on income taxes will be classified as a component of the provisions for income taxes. The Group did not recognize any income tax due to uncertain tax position or incur any interest and penalties related to potential underpaid income tax expenses for the period ended September 30, 2026 or 2025, respectively.

Investment in Securities - related party

The Company entered into Securities Purchase Agreements pursuant to which the Company purchased 6,500,000 and 7,276,163 shares of Value Exchange International, Inc. ("VEII"), a Nevada corporation on April 8, 2021 and October 17, 2022 respectively.

On January 27, 2023, the Company and HIPH World Inc. (f.k.a. American Premium Water Corporation and New Electric CV Corporation) (together with the Company, the "Lenders") entered into a Convertible Credit Agreement ("CN #1") with VEII. CN #1 provides VEII with a maximum credit line of $1,500,000 ("Maximum Credit Line") with simple interest accrued on any advances of the money under CN #1 at 8%. The principal amount of any advance of money under CN #1 (each being referred to as an "Advance") is due in a lump sum, balloon payment on the third annual anniversary of the date of the Advance ("Advance Maturity Date"). Accrued and unpaid interest on any Advance is due and payable on a semi-annual basis with interest payments due on the last business day of June and last business day of December of each year. A Lender may demand that any portion or all of the unpaid principal amount of any Advance as well as accrued and unpaid interest thereon may be paid by shares of VEII common stock in lieu of cash payment.

VEII must request Advances from the Lenders. Either Lender may elect to separately, fully fund the Advance, or both Lenders may jointly elect to fund the Advance based on Lenders' agreement on the portion of the Advance to be funded by each Lender. Lenders may severally or jointly reject any request for an Advance and neither Lender has an obligation to fund any Advance under CN #1. Accordingly, the Company will determine how much to loan to VEII pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

CN #1 grants conversion rights to each Lender. Each Advance shall be convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of VEII common stock at the option of the Lender who made that Advance (being referred to as a "Conversion"), at any time and from time to time, at a price per share equal the "Conversion Price" (as defined below). The Conversion Price for a Conversion shall be the average closing price of the VEII common stock for the three (3) consecutive trading days prior to date of the Notice of Conversion. The Lenders shall also have certain conversion rights upon a change of control of VEII, or a breach of the Credit Agreement by VEII.

In the event that a Lender elects to convert any portion of an Advance into shares of VEII common stock in lieu of cash payment in satisfaction of that Advance, then VEII would issue to the Lender five (5) detachable warrants for each share of VEII common stock issued in a Conversion ("Warrants"). Each Warrant will entitle the Lender to purchase one (1) share of common stock at a per-share exercise price equal to the Conversion Price. The exercise period of each Warrant will be five (5) years from date of issuance of the Warrant.

On February 23, 2023, Hapi Metaverse loaned VEII $1,400,000 (the "Loan Amount"). The Loan Amount can be converted into shares of VEII pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Credit Agreement for a period of three years. There is no fixed price for the derivative security until Hapi Metaverse converts the Loan Amount into shares of VEII common stock. The maturity date was extended to February 23, 2028 in March 2026.

On September 6, 2023, the Company converted $1,300,000 of the principal amount loaned to VEII into 7,344,632 shares of VEII's common stock. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company received common stock warrants to purchase a maximum of 36,723,160 shares of VEII common stock at an exercise price of $0.1770 per share. Such warrants expire five (5) years from date of their issuance.

On December 14, 2023, the Company entered into a Convertible Credit Agreement ("CN #2") with VEII. On December 15, 2023, the Company loaned VEII $1,000,000. CN #2 was amended pursuant to an agreement dated December 19, 2023. Under CN #2, as amended, this amount can be converted into shares of VEII pursuant to the terms of CN #2 for a period of three years. In the event that the Company converts this loan into shares of VEII common stock, the conversion price shall be $0.045 per share. In the event that the Company elects to convert any portion of the loan into shares of VEII common stock in lieu of cash payment in satisfaction of that loan, then VEII will issue to the Company five (5) detachable warrants for each share of VEII common stock issued in a conversion ("Warrants"). Each Warrant will entitle the Company to purchase one (1) share of common stock at a per-share exercise price equal to the Conversion Price. The exercise period of each Warrant will be five (5) years from date of issuance of the Warrant. At the time of this filing, the Company has not converted the Loan Amount. The Company has subsequently confirmed with VEII the intent to extend the loan, with final terms to be formalized prior to the original maturity.

On July 15, 2024, the Company entered into a Convertible Credit Agreement ("CN #3") with VEII for an unsecured credit line in the maximum amount of $110,000. Advances of the principal under CN #3 accrue simple interest at 8% per annum.
