The information that exists within the IT network and infrastructure (the “Cyberspace”) constitutes a valuable asset for Webull, warranting its protection and preservation. The Webull board believes that a robust information security management system is essential for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats. The Cybersecurity Policy is to be implemented as an integrated component of Webull’s overall risk management system and aligned with Webull’s overall business and development strategy.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">As of the date of this Report, we have not experienced any material cybersecurity incidents or identified any material cybersecurity threats that have affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition.</p> We have also integrated cybersecurity risk management into our overall risk management system. true <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">As of the date of this Report, we have not experienced any material cybersecurity incidents or identified any material cybersecurity threats that have affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition.</p> false <p style="font: bold 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Governance</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Our board of directors is responsible for overseeing risks related to cybersecurity.

Certain tasks may be delegated to Webull’s IT staff or external service providers (“IT Resources”), but are reviewed by the Policy Admin.

The Response Team is responsible for coordinating with internal and external IT personnel and advisors, and internal and external counsel, as appropriate, to minimize the damage resulting from a cybersecurity incident. The Response Team, in consultation with its advisors (as applicable), will work promptly to determine the scope and impact of the incident (including the extent of systems and data affected), notify any persons potentially affected by such breach, contain the incident, identify the cause of the incident, mitigate potentially harmful effects of the incident, and recover from the incident. The Response Team will develop a plan promptly for identifying and implementing appropriate steps to preserve evidence related to the incident, consistent with the need to restore availability and Webull’s legal obligations. The response team shall also determine whether any disciplinary measures are appropriate in connection with the incident.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Our board of directors is responsible for overseeing risks related to cybersecurity.

A contract contains a lease if the contract conveys to us the right to control the use of an underlying asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. If we determine that a contract contains a lease, we recognize in our consolidated statement of financial position a lease liability and a corresponding right-of-use asset on the commencement date of the lease. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. The interest rate used to determine the present value of the future lease payments is our incremental borrowing rate because the interest rate implicit in our leases is not readily determinable. Our incremental borrowing rate is estimated to approximate the interest rate that we would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis with similar terms and payments as the lease. An operating lease right-of-use asset (“ROU”) is initially measured at the value of the lease liability plus initial direct costs incurred and any prepayments of rent less any lease incentives.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Our leases are primarily for the lease of corporate office space around the world.

If we determine that an entity for which we hold a contractual or ownership interest in is a variable interest entity and that we are the primary beneficiary, we consolidate such entity in our consolidated financial statements. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is the party that meets both of the following criteria: (1) has the power to make decisions that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE; and (2) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that in either case could potentially be significant to the VIE.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the future due to one or more future confirming events.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Such estimates reflected in our consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the fair value of share-based compensation expense, redemption value of our redeemable preferred shares, depreciable lives of property and equipment, useful lives of intangible assets, purchase price allocation for business combinations, allowances for expected credit losses, loss contingency accruals, present value of lease liabilities, and provision for income tax, including unrecognized tax benefits and deferred tax asset valuation allowances.

Our other comprehensive (loss) income is comprised of gains and losses resulting from translating our subsidiaries’ foreign currency financial statements during consolidation. Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar and our foreign subsidiaries use functional currencies other than the US dollar. A foreign subsidiary’s assets and liabilities are translated into US dollars at period-end exchange rates and its revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the period.

The value of our receivables from customers, net represents the amount of margin loaned. Margin loans are collateralized by our customers’ securities balances and are reported at their outstanding principal balance, net of an allowance for credit losses.

We record an allowance for the unsecured portion of margin loans, which represents the amount by which the margin loan exceeds the fair value of its collateral. We based our decision to use the practical expedient on the following: (i) utilization of a collateral maintenance program, (ii) collateral is comprised of liquid securities with readily determinable fair values, and (iii) credit losses on fully secured margin loans are expected to be minimal. We have established an allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 in the amount of $1,114,751 and $225,572, respectively.

A contract contains a lease if the contract conveys to us the right to control the use of an underlying asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. If we determine that a contract contains a lease, we recognize in our consolidated statement of financial position a lease liability and a corresponding right-of-use asset on the commencement date of the lease. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. The interest rate used to determine the present value of the future lease payments is our incremental borrowing rate because the interest rate implicit in our leases is not readily determinable. Our incremental borrowing rate is estimated to approximate the interest rate that we would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis with similar terms and payments as the lease. An operating lease right-of-use asset (“ROU”) is initially measured at the value of the lease liability plus initial direct costs incurred and any prepayments of rent less any lease incentives.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Our leases are primarily for the lease of corporate office space around the world.

Non-lease components are distinct elements of a contract that are not related to securing the use of the underlying assets, such as common area maintenance and other management costs. We have elected to measure the lease liability by combining the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Fixed payments and variable payments that depend on a rate or index that relate to the lease and non-lease components are included within the measurement of the lease liability and right-of-use asset. Certain of the non-lease components are variable in nature and not based on an index or rate and, accordingly, are not included in the measurement of the lease liability and right-of-use asset, rather they are recognized in the period in which they become determinable.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expense in our consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive (loss) income.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">We have leased portions of office space we own to two third parties.

Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied over time is recognized by measuring our progress in satisfying the performance obligation in a manner that depicts the transfer of the services to the customer.

The lease dated November 16, 2022 is for a 10-year non-cancellable term, and the lease dated April 19, 2023 is for a 2-year non-cancellable term. Both leases provide the tenants with two options to extend for five years each under prevailing market terms and conditions upon option exercise. The weighted average remaining non-cancellable lease term is 7.9 years as of December 31, 2024. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, we recognized operating lease income of $1,135,608, $1,102,459 and $127,768, respectively.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 24pt"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Office Lease contains additional rent which consists of after-hours HVAC fees, reimbursement of operating expenses and taxes that exceed a predefined threshold.
