New venture: Universal DeFi LLC (formed July 2025)

Purpose: Diversify the company's business through two lines of activity.

  1. Tokenization platform
  • Intended to onboard issuers and tokenize assets; platform not yet operational
  • Planned services may include onboarding due diligence (KYC/AML) for issuers; issuer generally retains control of tokens after issuance
  • Platform design includes multi-party computation for security and third-party disaster recovery
  • Universal DeFi does not currently intend to act as broker, custodian, market maker, or asset issuer; regulatory exposure will depend on jurisdiction and asset type
  • Holder-level KYC/AML is not currently planned to be performed by Universal DeFi
  1. Ault Node operations on the Ault Blockchain (node/validator operations)
  • Universal DeFi acquired and operates licensed nodes and a validator on the Ault Blockchain
  • Network framework: Ault Blockchain is a Layer 1 network; validators stake AULT Tokens; Licensed Mining Nodes perform off-chain work (verifiable randomness) and earn emissions
  • Universal DeFi began limited operations and has earned tokens, but has not recorded material revenue from token emissions
  • Ault DAO LLC (an affiliate of Hyperscale Data) is the legal/organizational entity behind the Ault Blockchain
  • Governance: Each Node License confers one governance vote; total licenses capped at 1,000,000; node licenses non-transferable for two years
  • Universal DeFi ownership/participation: owned approximately 425 million AULT tokens as of July 1, 2026
  • Revenue sharing: As of June 30, 2026, Universal DeFi entered a Revenue Sharing Agreement with Ault Capital Group (authorized agent for Ault DAO LLC)
    • Universal DeFi will pay a 25% share of net proceeds to Ault Capital Group; Universal DeFi retains 75%
    • Net proceeds are defined as net cash, cryptocurrency, stablecoins, and other proceeds actually received from token sales and rewards after transaction fees
    • Cumulative cap on Ault Capital Group’s receipts: $93,750,000
    • Node operation and validator maintenance currently handled by an affiliate; costs borne by the affiliate; a managed services agreement is under negotiation

Revenue model and current status of Universal DeFi

  • Tokenization platform: expected revenue sources include onboarding fees, token-related fees, ongoing platform charges, and ancillary services (e.g., identity verification tools)
  • Node/validator operations: expected to generate emissions-based token rewards and a share of network transaction fees and staking rewards; tokens currently have no stated market value and have not generated material revenue to date
  • Universal DeFi operations and token activities are subject to evolving regulatory and market risk

Operational and workforce details

  • Employees (as of March 31, 2026): 7 full-time employees in the U.S.
    • 5 in sales and marketing; 2 in general administration and finance
    • Demographics: approximately 43% female, 57% male
    • Average tenure: 21 years (up from 19 years as of March 31, 2025)

Import, manufacturing and supply chain

  • All products are imported; import tariffs can be substantial (example: 25% on certain items)
  • Primary supplier: Eyston (PRC), historically the dominant supplier

Backlog and order status

  • Backlog decreased from $2,142,000 (2025) to $0 (2026), driven largely by the Feit asset sale

Market position and competition

  • Competes in the smoke/CO alarm market with First Alert and Walter Kidde Portable Equipment, Inc.
  • Competes in the broader electrical devices market with other manufacturers

Tariffs and geopolitical considerations

  • Tariffs and currency fluctuations affect input costs and supply-chain stability; dependence on imports from China remains high

Key operational note

  • Following the Feit asset sale, the company is focused on importing and marketing non-alarm product lines and developing its Universal DeFi initiatives. The DeFi venture has incurred losses to date and will require additional capital to reach profitability.
