Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount 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 these estimates. The Company’s significant estimates used in these condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, fair value of warrants, revenue recognition and the determination of the economic useful life of depreciable property and equipment. Certain of the Company’s estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company and general economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that these external factors could have an effect on the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates.

 

Business Combinations

Business Combinations. For business combinations that meet the accounting definition of a business, the Company determines and allocates the purchase price of an acquired company to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and noncontrolling interest, if applicable, as of the date of acquisition at fair value. Fair value may be estimated using comparable market data, a discounted cash flow method, or a combination of the two. In the discounted cash flow method, estimated future cash flows are based on management’s expectations for the future. Revenues and costs of the acquired companies are included in the Company’s operating results from the date of acquisition. The Company uses its best estimates and assumptions as part of the purchase price allocation process to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, and these estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement during the measurement period not to exceed one year from the acquisition date. As a result, any adjustment identified subsequent to the measurement period is included in operating results in the period in which the amount is determined.

 

Discontinued Operations

Discontinued Operations. A component of an entity that is disposed of by sale or abandonment is reported as discontinued operations if the transaction represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. The results of discontinued operations are aggregated and presented separately in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Assets and liabilities of the discontinued operations are aggregated and reported separately as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, including the comparative prior year period. Cash flows are reflected as cash flows from discontinued operations within the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for each period presented.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all highly liquid, short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

 

Digital Assets

Digital Assets. Digital assets primarily consist of cryptocurrencies and other crypto-tokens held for treasury, investment, or operational purposes. Effective January 1, 2025, the Company adopted ASU 2023-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60). Under this guidance, eligible crypto assets are measured at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in net income in the period in which they occur. Upon adoption, historical impairment-only accounting ceased. Digital assets are presented on the face of the condensed consolidated balance sheets as “Digital assets, at fair value.” Assets expected to be converted into cash or otherwise used to fund operations within twelve months are classified as current assets; all other digital assets are classified as noncurrent assets. The Company determines fair value using quoted prices in its principal market at the measurement time. Digital assets with quoted prices in active markets are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. When observable market inputs other than quoted prices are used (such as certain wrapped tokens, restricted tokens, or stablecoins whose value is not derived solely from exchange-traded prices), such assets are classified as Level 2. The Company did not classify any digital assets as Level 3 during the periods presented. Realized and unrealized gains and losses from changes in the fair value of digital assets are recorded within “(Loss) income from change in fair value of digital assets” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Realized gains and losses on disposals are determined using the specific identification method. Digital assets are held with third-party custodians and institutional trading counterparties. These arrangements expose the Company to counterparty, concentration, and safeguarding risks, including technological, operational, and cyber-security risks. The Company does not hold digital assets on behalf of third parties and therefore does not apply the guidance in SAB 121. As of the periods presented, the Company does not stake, lend, or pledge its digital assets, and there are no digital-asset collateral or borrowing arrangements outstanding.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable are carried at their contractual amounts, less an estimated allowance for credit losses. Management estimates the allowance for credit losses using a loss-rate approach based on historical loss information, adjusted for management’s expectations about current and future economic conditions, as the basis to determine expected credit losses. Management exercises significant judgment in determining expected credit losses. Key inputs include macroeconomic factors, industry trends, the creditworthiness of counterparties, historical experience, the financial conditions of the customers, and the amount and age of past due accounts. Management believes that the composition of receivables at year-end is consistent with historical conditions as credit terms and practices and the client base has not changed significantly. Receivables are considered past due if full payment is not received by the contractual due date. Past due accounts are generally written off against the allowance for credit losses only after all collection attempts have been exhausted. The allowance for credit losses was $833,458 and $700,000 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The increase in the allowance for expected credit losses to $833,458 at March 31, 2026 reflects updated loss-rate assumptions and customer risk ratings based on current macroeconomic conditions. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 the Company had no write-downs of accounts receivable.

 

Inventories

Inventories. Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company reduces the carrying value of inventories for those items that are potentially excess, obsolete, or slow moving based on changes in customer demand, technology developments, or other economic factors. The reserve for obsolescence was $2,682,906 and $2,700,000 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 the Company had no write-downs of inventories.

 

Other Investments

Other Investments. Other investments are recorded at cost. Each reporting period, the Company performs a qualitative impairment assessment for each investment accounted for under the measurement alternative. Indicators of impairment include, but are not limited to, a significant deterioration in the earnings performance, credit rating, asset quality, or business prospects of the investee; a significant adverse change in the regulatory, economic, or technological environment of the investee; a significant adverse change in the general market condition of either the geographical area or the industry in which the investee operates; a bona fide offer to purchase, an offer by the investee to sell, or a completed auction process for the same or similar investment for an amount less than the carrying amount of the investment; and factors that raise significant concerns about the investee’s ability to continue as a going concern. If a qualitative assessment indicates that the investment is impaired, the Company estimates the fair value of the investment in accordance with ASC 820 and, if the fair value is less than the carrying amount, recognizes an impairment loss in earnings equal to the difference between the carrying amount and fair value. No impairment charges were recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

 

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment. Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, which is recorded commencing at the in-service date using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows: 3 to 5 years for office equipment, 5 to 7 years for furniture and fixtures, 6 to 10 years for machinery and equipment, 10 to 15 years for building improvements, 5 years for software, 5 years for molds, 5 to 7 years for vehicles and 40 years for buildings. When fixed assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the statements of comprehensive loss for the respective period. Minor additions and repairs are expensed in the period incurred. Major additions and repairs which extend the useful life of existing assets are capitalized and depreciated using the straight-line method over their remaining estimated useful lives.

 

Contingent Liabilities

Contingent Liabilities. The Company, from time to time, may be involved in certain legal proceedings. Based upon consultation with outside counsel handling its defense in these matters and the Company’s analysis of potential outcomes, if the Company determines that a loss arising from such matters is probable and can be reasonably estimated, an estimate of the contingent liability is recorded in its condensed consolidated financial statements. If only a range of estimated loss can be determined, an amount within the range that, based on estimates, assumptions and judgments, reflects the most likely outcome, is recorded as a contingent liability in the condensed consolidated financial statements. In situations where none of the estimates within the estimated range is a better estimate of probable loss than any other amount, the Company records the low end of the range. Any such accrual would be charged to expense in the appropriate period. Litigation expenses for these types of contingencies are recognized in the period in which the litigation services were provided.

 

Warrants

Warrants. The Company evaluates warrants and other freestanding instruments to determine whether they should be classified as equity or as assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Warrants that are freestanding financial instruments and are indexed to the Company’s own stock and meet the criteria for equity classification are recorded in equity at issuance and are not subsequently remeasured. Warrants that do not meet the criteria for equity classification are recorded as assets or liabilities at fair value upon issuance and remeasured to fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies performance obligations, by transferring promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for fulfilling those performance obligations. Revenue for product sales is recognized upon receipt by the customer. There are no contract assets or contract liabilities and therefore no unsatisfied performance obligations. One customer represented 99% and 86% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

 

Disaggregation of Revenue

Disaggregation of Revenue. The Company’s primary revenue stream includes the sale of consumer goods through its inventory management solutions business. The revenue stream for discontinued operations primarily includes the sale of corrugated packaging materials. There are no other material operations that were separately disaggregated for segment purposes.

 

Cost of Revenues

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues includes freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, depreciation and inspection costs.

 

Comprehensive income

Comprehensive income. The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 220 in reporting comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized other comprehensive gain (loss) for foreign currency translation of $(115,542) and $185,170, respectively.

 

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translation. Eightco’s functional currency is the United States Dollar (“USD”) and the Forever 8 subsidiaries have functional currencies in Euro (“EUR”), British Pound Sterling (“GBP”), and USD.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translation. Eightco’s functional currency is the United States Dollar (“USD”) and the Forever 8 subsidiaries have functional currencies in Euro (“EUR”), British Pound Sterling (“GBP”), and USD.

 

For the purpose of presenting these condensed consolidated financial statements, the reporting currency is USD. Forever 8 assets and liabilities are expressed in USDs at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date, equity accounts are translated at historical rates, and income and expense items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate during the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under accumulated other comprehensive income in the stockholders’ equity section of the balance sheets.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the date of the transaction. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at the end of the reporting periods. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items and on translation of monetary items at period-end are included in statement of comprehensive loss.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, approximately 99% of consolidated revenues were derived from customers located in Europe and denominated primarily in Euros. As a result, the Company is exposed to a concentration of foreign currency risk, and significant fluctuations in the EUR or GBP relative to the USD could materially impact reported revenues and results of operations.

 

Exchange rates used for the translations are as follows:

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share. The Company follows ASC 260 when reporting Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) resulting in the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic net (loss) income per common share is computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number vested of common shares, plus the net impact of common shares (computed using the treasury stock method), if dilutive, resulting from the exercise of dilutive securities. In periods when losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

 

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company excluded the common stock equivalents summarized below, which entitle the holders thereof to ultimately acquire shares of common stock, from its calculation of earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred Financing Costs. Deferred financing costs include debt discounts and debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability and are presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the debt liability. Amortization of deferred financing costs is included as a component of interest expense. Deferred financing costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the recognized debt liability which approximates the effective interest method.

 

Income Taxes

Income Taxes. The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of the FASB ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes” (“ASC Topic 740”). The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of items that have been included or excluded in the condensed consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their respective financial reporting amounts (“temporary differences”) at enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The Company utilizes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Management has evaluated and concluded that there were no material uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2026. The Company does not expect any significant changes in its unrecognized tax benefits within twelve months of the reporting date. The Company’s policy is to classify assessments, if any, for tax related interest as interest expense and penalties as general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The Company is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.

 

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements. The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

 

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 in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value 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 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable (for example, cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

 

Effective January 1, 2025, the Company adopted ASU 2023-08, which requires eligible digital assets to be measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings each reporting period. Digital assets that trade in active markets and have readily determinable fair values, including Worldcoin (WLD), Ethereum (ETH), and U.S. dollar-denominated stablecoins, are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Digital assets are valued based on quoted market prices obtained from principal market exchanges where the assets are actively traded.

 

The Company’s financial instruments that are not measured at fair value, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and short-term borrowings, approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities.

 

No transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 occurred during the periods presented.

 

Concentration of Credit Risks

Concentration of Credit Risks. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash equivalents, digital assets, and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash balances and digital asset custodial accounts with multiple institutional-grade financial institutions and digital asset custodians, including Kraken, FalconX, and Coinbase. Balances held with digital asset custodians are not federally insured. Balances held with institutional-grade financial institutions may exceed federally insured limits or similar protections. The Company manages custodial risk through the use of multiple counterparties, ongoing evaluation of each custodian’s financial stability, and review of their security and safekeeping practices. The Company has not experienced any losses on deposits or digital asset holdings. With respect to trade receivables, the Company performs ongoing evaluations of customer credit worthiness and does not require collateral. As of March 31, 2026, two customers represented approximately 66% and 34% of total accounts receivable, respectively. The Company maintains an allowance for expected credit losses based on historical experience and forward-looking information.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,” which requires the disaggregated disclosure of specific expense categories, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization included in each relevant expense caption presented on the statement of operations. The standard also requires disclosure of qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, as well as the total amount of selling expenses and an entity’s definition of selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company currently believes there are no other issued and not yet effective accounting standards that are materially relevant to its consolidated financial statements.

 

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting. The Company uses “the management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of the Company, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. As of March 31, 2026, the Company operates as one reportable segment.
