In cases where a joint and several liability arises because the Company has received cash proceeds for use in its own operations the offsetting entry is generally a debit to cash. In cases where the Company has recognized a liability and funds were borrowed for the benefit of IDC, the Company generally recognizes a deemed distribution within its consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit).

In cases where a joint and several liability arises because the Company has received cash proceeds for use in its own operations the offsetting entry is generally a debit to cash. In cases where the Company has recognized a liability and funds were borrowed for the benefit of IDC, the Company generally recognizes a deemed distribution within its consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit).

Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury stock and if-converted methods. For all periods presented, there is no difference in the number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding as inclusion of the potentially dilutive securities would be antidilutive.</span></div> <div style="margin-bottom:12pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Liquidity and Going Concern</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:8pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Significant assumptions underlie this belief, including, among other things, that there will be no material adverse developments in our business, liquidity, capital requirements and that our credit facilities with lenders will remain available to us.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:8pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">In accordance with ASC Topic 205-40 — </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Going Concern</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">, Management evaluates whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. This evaluation includes considerations related to financial and other covenants contained in the Company’s credit facilities, as well as forecasted liquidity for the new combined company including Circle8. Atlantic has concluded that there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the date of issuance of its consolidated financial statements. This conclusion was reached primarily because the consolidated financial information as of the acquisition date is still being prepared and compiled, including an analysis of liabilities extinguished pursuant to the terms of the Acquisition Agreement. The Company will continue to evaluate the provisions in Topic 205-40 in future filings upon completion of all acquisition accounting activities and filing of Circle8’s audited consolidated financial statements and combined pro forma financial statements. The Company expects that the combination with Circle8 will enhance scale, liquidity, and access to capital, positioning the combined entity for potential premium valuation multiples and expanded international reach with established global clients. Management further anticipates that the transaction will drive operating efficiencies, improve profitability, and strengthen revenue stability through a diversified customer base and balanced geographic exposure across the United States and Europe.</span></div> <div style="margin-bottom:12pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Recent Accounting Pronouncements</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:12pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Standards Recently Adopted</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:12pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 — </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Income Taxes</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> (“ASU 2023-09”) to enhance income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information.

The Company does not have any material leases, individually or in the aggregate, classified as finance leases. For each lease agreement, the Company determines its lease term as the non-cancellable period of the lease and includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise that option. We use these options in determining our capitalized financing and right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. </span></div><div style="margin-bottom:8pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

As part of a refinancing transaction in April 2025, SPP obtained, and was supposed to ultimately sell, over $77 million worth of publicly traded shares in Atlantic acquired from non-party IDC. SPP was required to apply the proceeds to satisfy the outstanding debt owed under the term loan that originated in 2021. The value of the Nasdaq publicly traded shares significantly exceeded any outstanding indebtedness arguably remaining owing to SPP (less than $50 million) and, as such, upon SPP’s receipt of the collateral, the indebtedness was satisfied and extinguished. SPP acknowledged and understood it took stock worth more than its debt, and agreed to remit the surplus back to IDC. It should be noted that SPP’s default notices did not demand repayment of the loans, nor include payoff amounts. Instead, they only reflected a hostile takeover. Furthermore, as a subordinate mezzanine lender, SPP has no contractual right to receive capital raise proceeds ahead of the senior lenders in line before it.</span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline">Lawsuit against Atlantic, et al</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:115%">Later on April 2, 2026, Rick Arrowsmith, on behalf of SPP, and in response to the above-described lawsuit brought by the Company, commenced a lawsuit in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware against the Company and its officers.
