OpenWorld Q3 2026 Earnings Call and Webcast - OPENWORLD INC

Explicit Guidance:

• Liquidity: Current cash, anticipated receivable collections, and proceeds from a subsequent registered direct offering ($3.5M) are projected to provide sufficient liquidity to meet operating obligations for at least the next 12 months from the issuance of the Q3 2026 financial statements.
• Contracted Revenue Visibility: As of September 30, 2026, approximately $21.2 million of transaction price remains allocated to unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations under RWA arrangements, providing visibility into future revenue recognition.
• Financial Trajectory: Management expects margins (gross and EBITDA) to be sustainable with potential for further upside as the business scales, driven by the model combining specialized structuring, implementation, and recurring platform/servicing fees with limited incremental delivery costs.

Business-Segment Outlook:

• Real-World Asset (RWA) Platform: Strategic shift from project-based token launches to higher-value, recurring long-term platform-oriented infrastructure and tokenization services; expected to be the primary growth engine.
• Meridian (Tesla Powerwalls) Deal: Definitive agreements underway for a tokenized infrastructure deal using existing homes/commercial buildings for inference AI generation; initial target up to $1 billion with scope for significant expansion; expected to feature multiple tranches.
• Beyond AI (Industrial IP) Deal: Definitive agreements underway for tokenizing industrial intellectual property with global use cases; on-chain structure expected to facilitate additional agreements and recurring revenue generation.
• Revenue Mix: RWA revenue constituted ~86% ($6.4M) of Q3 2026 total revenue ($7.4M), up from $0 in Q3 2025; digital assets/capital markets revenue is expected to remain minimal relative to the RWA focus.

Market and Competitive Outlook:

• Capital Formation: Planning a launch on the Solana blockchain to facilitate capital formation, with announcements expected throughout November and December focusing on definitive agreements, scale, and capital deployment.
• Asset Tokenization Growth: RWA assets on Solana have grown six-fold since the start of 2026, exceeding $5 billion; management anticipates accelerating uptake in RWA tokenization from major global companies formalizing into definitive agreements.
• Trading Infrastructure: Tokenization of the company's own stock on the Solana ecosystem (via Backpack) is expected to provide 24/7 trading, access to deep DeFi liquidity, and seamless two-way flow between tokens and underlying QSIP stock.

Macro / Industry Outlook:

• Geographic Expansion: Strongest near-term opportunities identified in the United States and Middle East, with imminent expansion into Southeast Asia where specific asset structures and capital formation capabilities are most viable.
• Demand Trends: Observes accelerating global demand for inference AI infrastructure, driven by the unique capability to generate inference without grid power or water cooling, utilizing existing off-take arrangements.
• Regulatory/Structural Environment: Management views the tokenized stock structure and RWA frameworks as crucial for attracting a "Web3 native, highly educated community" and expects the current regulatory environment to support the transition from term sheets to capital formation.

Strategic Initiatives:

• RTO Completion: Reverse takeover transaction closed September 30, 2026; strategic focus now on scaling the RWA platform.
• Financing: Completed a registered direct offering subsequent to Q3 2026 end, generating ~$3.5M gross proceeds.
• Product Launches: Upcoming launches on the Solana blockchain scheduled for November and December 2026 to drive capital formation for RWA deals.
• Platform Scaling: Intention to scale from initial term sheets (e.g., Meridian, Beyond AI) to full capital formation and platform deployment across targeted geographies.

Risks and Headwinds to Outlook:

• Transaction Costs: Q3 2026 results were materially impacted by non-recurring costs, including $6M in professional fees for the RTO/public listing and $6.4M in non-cash stock-based compensation.
• Execution Risk: Progress depends on converting non-binding agreements and term sheets into definitive agreements and closing capital formation tranches.
• Market Volatility: Reliance on Solana ecosystem liquidity and adoption for both internal stock tokenization and external RWA capital formation.

Management Tone on the Future:

• Confidence: Highly optimistic, describing the future as "very bright" and the current performance as "just the starting point" for the new business model.
• Strategic Clarity: Clear pivot from one-time token generation events to recurring platform economics; confidence in the sustainability of high gross margins (84%) as scale is achieved.
• Hedges: Guidance is framed as "potential" and "expectations," contingent on the successful completion of definitive agreements and capital formation tranches.

Miscellaneous:

• Stock Tokenization: The company is proceeding with tokenizing its own shares on Solana, enabling holders to request delivery of underlying QSIP stock to brokerage accounts.
• Operational Structure: Business model emphasizes "specialized structuring, implementation, and tokenized services" combined with "ongoing platform and servicing fees" to create operating leverage.
