Assumed Diluted Shares Outstanding represents the sum of (i) SharpLink’s actual shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of the end of each reporting period, inclusive of disclosed ATM sales, plus (ii) the additional shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise or settlement of all outstanding warrants, pre-funded warrants, stock option awards, and restricted stock units. Notably, Assumed Diluted Shares Outstanding is not calculated using the treasury stock method. It does not account for equity award vesting conditions, stock option exercise prices, or contractual restrictions limiting the convertibility of debt instruments. Additionally, it excludes any assumed share repurchases that would ordinarily be considered under the treasury stock method.

Commentary on the Genius Act
SharpLink applauds the recent signing of the Genius Act into law by President Donald J. Trump, which marks a watershed moment for the digital asset and blockchain industries. The bipartisan legislation establishes a clear regulatory framework for digital assets and smart contract protocols in the United States, providing long-awaited clarity for companies like SharpLink that are actively integrating blockchain technologies into their platforms. This historic legislation is expected to unlock new opportunities for innovation, investment and institutional adoption, and helps to affirm SharpLink’s short- and long-term digital asset growth strategies.
Lubin continued, “With the Genius Act now law, the regulatory uncertainty that has surrounded crypto innovation is finally easing. We believe this ushers in a more supportive environment for companies like SharpLink to not only operate and grow, but also to harness the full potential of Ethereum — including its security, scalability and smart contract utility — to drive profound, transformative change across the global digital economy.”
