Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual audited financial statements and accompanying notes have been condensed or omitted in this accompanying interim consolidated financial statements and footnotes. Accordingly, the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 10, 2023 (the “2022 Annual Report”).
In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments and accruals, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of the results of all interim periods reported herein. The results of the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or any other interim period or any future year or period.
Reverse Stock Split
On September 6, 2023, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to effect a
RYVYL INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations or cash flows.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash represents the following:
● Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, cash on deposit with banks, and highly liquid debt investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
● Restricted cash – The Company’s technology enables transactional blockchain ledger to instantly reflect all transaction details. The final cash settlement of each transaction is subject to the gateway policies. This final disposition takes days to weeks to complete in accordance with these policies. Each policy is an integral part of the transactional contracts between the Company, its Independent Sales Organizations (“ISOs”), its agents, and the merchant clients. While the ledger reflects a held balance for the merchant, in reserve or payment in arrears, the Company holds funds in a trust account as cash deemed restricted. The Company’s records reflect such restricted cash as restricted cash and trust accounts, and the balances due to merchants and ISOs as settlement liabilities.
Cash Due from Gateways and Payment Processing Liabilities
The Company’s primary source of revenue consists of payment processing services for its merchant clients. When a merchant makes a sale, the process of receiving the payment card information, engaging the banks for transferring the proceeds to the merchant’s account via digital gateways, and recording the transaction on a blockchain ledger are the activities for which the Company collects fees.
The Company utilized several gateways during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022. These gateways have strict guidelines pertaining to scheduling of the release of funds to merchants which are based on several criteria, such as, and among other things, return and chargeback history, associated risks for specific business verticals, and average transaction size. To mitigate processing risks, these policies determine reserve requirements and payment-in-arrears strategies. While reserve and payment-in-arrears restrictions are in effect for a merchant payout, the Company records receivables from the gateways against these amounts until released.
Cash due from gateways balances presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets represent the amount due to the Company for transactions processed wherein the funds have not been distributed.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. They consist primarily of salaries and benefits for research and development personnel and outsourced contracted services, as well as associated supplies and materials.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised goods or services to the Company’s customers or when the Company satisfies any performance obligations under contract. The amount of revenue represents consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the respective goods or services provided. Under the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), contract assets or contract liabilities that arise from past performance but require a further performance before the obligation can be fully satisfied must be identified and recorded on the balance sheet until respective settlements have been met.
RYVYL INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company’s primary revenue source is generated from payment processing services. Payment processing services revenue is based on a percentage of each transaction’s value and/or upon fixed amounts specified per each transaction or service and is recognized as such transactions or services are performed, at a point in time.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses for estimated losses from the inability of gateways to make required payments. The allowance for credit losses is evaluated periodically based on the aging of accounts receivable, the operational relationship with gateways and their payment histories, historical charge-off experiences and other assumptions, such as current assessments of economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amounts.
Prepaid Expenses
Prepaid expenses primarily consist of deposits made with credit card companies under Transact Europe Holdings OOD (“Transact Europe Holdings”) and the prepayment associated with other acquisitions.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company assesses the fair value of financial instruments based on the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company accounts for acquisitions of businesses in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting which requires assets and liabilities to be recognized at their fair values on the acquisition date. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquired businesses over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Acquisition costs are expensed as incurred.
Under the guidance of FASB ASC Topic 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other, goodwill is not amortized, rather it is tested for impairment annually, and will be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. An impairment loss generally would be recognized when the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s net assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the reporting unit and would be measured as the excess carrying value of goodwill over the derived fair value of goodwill. The Company’s policy is to perform an annual impairment testing for its reporting units on December 31 of each fiscal year.
Goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination determined to have an indefinite useful life are generally not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment at least annually and more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s fair value.
Other intangible assets with estimable useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, in accounting for finite-lived intangible assets, which requires impairment losses to be recorded when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. As of September 30, 2023, the Company determined there were no indicators of impairment of its intangible assets.
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever management believes that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. To the extent that the carrying value is determined to be unrecoverable, an impairment loss is recognized through a charge to expense. As of September 30, 2023, other than a charge-off of the entire consideration paid in connection with the contracted acquisition of the Sky Financial and Intelligence, LLC (“Sky Financial”) portfolio, the Company performed an impairment analysis on the other acquired goodwill and other long-lived assets and concluded that their values are supportable and recoverable.
Classification of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
The Company has Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements, net of operating loss carry forwards and credits, by applying 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 not more likely than not that some portion of or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Judgment is required in determining and evaluating income tax provisions and valuation allowances for deferred income tax assets. We recognize an income tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position.
Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we have valuation allowances which serve to reduce net deferred tax assets.

Earnings Per Share
Basic income or (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted earnings per share includes the effect of any potentially dilutive debt or equity under the treasury stock method, if including such instruments is dilutive. The Company’s diluted loss per share is the same as the basic loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2022, and three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, since there are no common stock equivalents outstanding that would have a dilutive effect.
Leases
On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 842”), to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing transactions. ASC 842 requires that lessees recognize right of use assets and lease liabilities calculated based on the net present value of lease payments for all lease agreements with terms that are greater than twelve months.
ASU 842 distinguishes leases as either a finance lease or an operating lease that affects how the leases are measured and presented in the statements of operations and statements of changes in cash flows. ASU 842 supersedes nearly all existing lease accounting guidance under GAAP issued by the FASB including ASC Topic 840, Leases.
For operating leases, we calculated right-of-use assets and lease liabilities based on the net present value of the remaining lease payments as of the adoption date using our incremental borrowing rate as of that date.
Segment Reporting
The Company has organized its operations into two segments: North America and International. These segments reflect the way management evaluates its business performance and manages its operations.
The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is its Chief Executive Officer. Management has determined that the operational data used by the Company’s CODM is that of the two reportable segments. Management bases strategic goals and decisions on these segments.
Management evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources based on operating income or loss as compared to prior periods and current performance levels.
Recent Accounting Standard Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”). The standard, including subsequently issued amendments (ASU No. 2018-19, ASU No. 2019-04, ASU No. 2019-05, ASU No. 2019-10 and No. ASU 2019-11), requires a financial asset measured at amortized cost basis, such as accounts receivable and certain other financial assets, to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10 to postpone the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for public business entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies defined by the SEC to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has adopted this accounting standard, effective January 1, 2023. Management assessed the adoption of this standard on the effective date and concluded that the adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023.
Recent Accounting Standards and Guidance Not Adopted
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08), which requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 606, as if the acquirer had originated the contracts. ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company has not acquired any businesses during the effective period and, accordingly, is currently evaluating the effect, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and disclosures.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating large sections of the existing guidance in this area. It also eliminates several triggers for derivative accounting, including a requirement to settle certain contracts by delivering registered shares. These changes are intended to make GAAP easier to apply and, therefore, reduce the frequency of errors in this part of the literature. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. For SEC filers, excluding smaller reporting companies, ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, this ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods therein. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

Restatements of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements |
During the preparation of its 2022 Annual Report, the Company determined that it had not appropriately accounted for certain historical transactions under GAAP. In accordance with the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 99, Materiality, and SAB 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, the Company evaluated the materiality of the errors from qualitative and quantitative perspectives, individually and in aggregate, and concluded that the errors were material to the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the quarters ending March 31, 2021, June 30, 2021, September 30, 2021, March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022, and September 30, 2022, and for the annual period ending December 31, 2021. Based on this evaluation, on January 13, 2023, the Company’s Audit Committee, with the concurrence of management, concluded that the Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements for the aforementioned periods would need to be restated and could no longer be relied upon. The Company has restated the impacted financial statements for each of these periods and presented the effects of the restatement adjustments in its 2022 Annual Report.

Settlement Processing |
The Company’s proprietary blockchain-based technology serves as the settlement engine for all transactions within the Company’s ecosystem. The blockchain ledger provides a robust and secure platform to log large volumes of immutable transactional records in real time. In summary, blockchain is a distributed ledger that uses digitally encrypted keys to verify, secure and record details of each transaction conducted within an ecosystem. Unlike general blockchain-based systems, the Company uses proprietary, private ledger technology to verify every transaction conducted within the Company ecosystem. The verification of transaction data comes from trusted partners, all of whom have been extensively vetted by the Company. The Company facilitates all financial elements of its closed-loop ecosystem, and it acts as the administrator for all related accounts. Using the Company’s TrustGateway technology, the Company seeks authorization and settlement for each transaction from Gateways to the issuing bank responsible for the credit/debit card used in the transaction. When a gateway settles the transaction, the Company’s TrustGateway technology composes a chain of blockchain instructions to the Company’s ledger manager system.
When consumers use credit or debit cards to pay for transactions with merchants who use our ecosystem, the transaction starts with the consumer purchasing tokens from the Company. The issuance of tokens is accomplished when the Company loads a virtual wallet with a token, which then transfers credits to the merchant’s wallet on a dollar-for-dollar basis, after which the merchant releases its goods or services to the consumer. These transfers take place instantaneously and seamlessly, allowing the transaction experience to seem like any other ordinary credit or debit card transaction to the consumer and merchant. While the Company’s blockchain ledger records transaction details instantaneously, the final cash settlement of each transaction can take days to weeks, depending upon contract terms between the Company and the gateways the Company uses, between the Company and its ISOs, and between the Company and/or its ISOs and merchants who use the Company’s services. In the case where the Company has received transaction funds, but not yet paid a merchant or an ISO, the Company holds funds in either a trust account or as cash deemed restricted within the Company’s operating accounts. The Company records the total of such funds as cash due from gateways, net – a current asset. Of these funds, the Company records the balance due to merchants and ISOs as payment processing liabilities, net – a current liability.
