CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Quarterly Report") contains statements that the Company believes are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements relating to expectations for future financial performance, business strategies or expectations for our business. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of the management of the Company. Although the Company believes that its plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking statements are reasonable, it cannot provide assurance that it will achieve or realize these plans, intentions or expectations. These statements constitute projections, forecasts and forward-looking statements, and are not guarantees of performance. Such statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. When used in this in this Quarterly Report, words such as "anticipate," "believe," "can," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "intend," "may," "might," "plan," "possible," "potential," "should," "target," "will," "would" and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Should one or more of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, the Company's actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. The following important factors, risks, and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report:

●

We may not be able to sustain our growth, effectively manage our anticipated future growth, implement our business strategies or achieve the results we anticipate.

●

The impairments of our intangible assets and equity method investment in our joint ventures, have materially and adversely impacted our business and results of operations and may do so again in the future.

●

Our current liquidity resources raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and holders of our securities could suffer a total loss of their investment.

●

We will require additional capital, which additional financing may result in restrictions on our operations or substantial dilution to our stockholders, to support the growth of our business, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

●

Following the closure of Katmandu Park DR, our FBD business is in transition and the repositioning and rebranding of FBD projects will be subject to timing, budgeting and other risks which could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, the ongoing need for capital expenditures to develop our FBD business could have a material adverse effect on us, including our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.

●

Our growth plans in FCG may take longer than anticipated or may not be successful.

●

Our ability to execute on our strategy and business model is dependent on the quality of our services, and our failure to offer high quality services could have a material adverse effect on its sales and results of operations.

●

Anticipated synergies across our three business lines may not create the diversified revenue streams that we believe they will.

●

A significant portion of FCG's and our revenue is derived from one large client of FCG and any loss of, or decrease in services to, that client could harm FCG's and our results of operations.

●

Following the completion of the Strategic Investment, the Company, Falcon's Opco and FCG LLC are subject to contractual restrictions that may affect our ability to access the public markets and expand our business.

●

The significance of our operations and partnerships outside of the United States makes us susceptible to the risks of doing business internationally, which could lower our revenues, increase our costs, reduce our profits, disrupt our business, or damage our reputation.

●

We are exposed to risks related to operating in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

●

Our indebtedness and liabilities could limit the cash flow available for our operations, which may adversely affect our financial condition and future financial results. The principal, premium, if any, and interest payment obligations of such debt may restrict our future operations and impair our ability to invest in our businesses.

●

We may expand into new lines of business in our FBB division and may face risks associated with such expansion.

●

We have entered and expect to continue to enter into joint venture, strategic collaborations, teaming and other business arrangements, and these activities involve risks and uncertainties. A failure of any such relationship could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

●

In certain jurisdictions into which we are currently contemplating expanding, we will rely on strategic relationships with local partners in order to be able to offer and market our products and services. If we cannot establish and maintain these relationships, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

●

We are dependent on the continued contributions of our senior management and other key employees, and the loss of any of whom could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

●

If we are unable to hire, retain, train and motivate qualified personnel and senior management for our businesses and deploy our personnel and resources to meet customer demand around the world, our business could suffer.

●

Failures in, material damage to, or interruptions in our information technology systems, software or websites, and difficulties in updating our systems or software or implementing new systems or software could adversely affect our businesses or operations.

●

Protection of electronically stored data and other cybersecurity is costly, and if our data or systems are materially compromised in spite of this protection, we may incur additional costs, lost opportunities, damage to our reputation, disruption of services or theft of our assets.

●

Our insurance may not be adequate to cover the potential losses, liabilities and damages of our FBD division, the cost of insurance may continue to increase materially, including as a result of natural disasters, some of which may be related to climate change, and we may not be able to secure insurance to cover all of our risks, all of which could have a material adverse effect on us.

●

Theft of our intellectual property, including unauthorized exhibition of our content, may decrease our licensing, franchising and programming revenue which may adversely affect our business and profitability.

●

We are a holding company, and our only material assets are our interests in Falcon's Opco and our other equity method investments. Accordingly, we will generally be dependent upon distributions from Falcon's Opco and our other equity method investments to pay taxes, make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement and pay dividends.

●

Under the Tax Receivable Agreement, the Company is required to make payments to the Company's initial or current unitholders for certain tax benefits to which the Company may become entitled, and those payments may be substantial.

●

In certain cases, payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement may be accelerated and/or significantly exceed the actual benefits the Company realizes in respect of the tax attributes subject to the Tax Receivable Agreement.

●

If Falcon's Opco were to become a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Company and Falcon's Opco might be subject to potentially significant tax inefficiencies, and the Company would not be able to recover payments previously made by it under the Tax Receivable Agreement even if the corresponding tax benefits were subsequently determined to have been unavailable due to such status.

●

As a public reporting company, we are subject to rules and regulations established from time to time by the SEC and Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding our internal control over financial reporting. If we fail to establish and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or report them in a timely manner.

●

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. If we are unable to remediate these material weaknesses, if management identifies additional material weaknesses in the future or if we otherwise fail to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately or timely report our financial position or results of operations, which may adversely affect our business and stock price or cause our access to the capital markets to be impaired.

●

The Demerau Family is expected to have significant influence over stockholder decisions because of its share ownership.

●

Cecil D. Magpuri, our Chief Executive Officer, controls over twenty percent of our voting power and is able to exert significant influence over the direction of our business.

●

There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq.

In addition, this Quarterly Report includes important information as to risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. See "Note 10 - Commitments and Contingencies" within Item 1 of this Quarterly Report and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" within Item 2 of this Quarterly Report. Additional important information as to these factors is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 ("Annual Report") in the sections titled Item 1, "Business", Item 1A, "Risk Factors," Item 3, "Legal Proceedings," and Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations". The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report or, in the case of any document incorporated by reference, the date of that document. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. Additional information as to factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements is disclosed from time to time in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

FALCON'S BEYOND GLOBAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated)

1.	Description of business and basis of presentation

Merger with FAST II

Falcon's Beyond Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Pubco", "FBG", or the "Company"), entered into a Plan of Merger, dated as of January 31, 2023 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among Pubco, FAST Acquisition Corp. II, a Delaware corporation ("FAST II"), Falcon's Beyond Global, LLC, a Florida limited liability company that has since redomesticated as a Delaware limited liability company ("Falcon's Opco"), and Palm Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco ("Merger Sub").

On October 5, 2023 FAST II merged with and into Pubco (the "SPAC Merger"), with Pubco surviving as the sole owner of Merger Sub, followed by a contribution by Pubco of all of its cash (except for cash required to pay certain transaction expenses) to Merger Sub to effectuate the "UP-C" structure; and on October 6, 2023 Merger Sub merged with and into Falcon's Opco (the "Acquisition Merger," and collectively with the SPAC Merger, the "Business Combination"), with Falcon's Opco as the surviving entity of such merger. Following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the "Closing"), the direct interests in Falcon's Opco were held by Pubco and certain holders of the limited liability company units of Falcon's Opco outstanding as of immediately prior to the Business Combination.

FAST II and Falcon's Opco's transaction costs related to the Business Combination of $6.3 million and $15.7 million, respectively, are not yet settled at September 30, 2024. Negotiations regarding the terms of the costs yet to be settled are still ongoing and may change materially from these amounts accrued. Costs incurred in excess of the gross proceeds are recorded in profit or loss.

Nature of Operations

The Company operates at the intersection of content, technology, and experiences. We aim to engage, inspire and entertain people through our creativity and innovation, and to connect people with brands, with each other, and with themselves through the combination of digital and physical experiences. At the core of our business is brand creation and optimization, facilitated by our multi-disciplinary creative teams. The Company has three business divisions, which are conducted through five operating segments. Our three business lines feed into each other to accelerate our growth strategy: (i) Falcon's Creative Group, LLC ("FCG") creates master plans, designs attractions and experiential entertainment, and produces content, interactives and software; (ii) Falcon's Beyond Destinations develops a diverse range of entertainment experiences using both owned and third-party licensed intellectual property, consisting of Producciones de Parques, S.L. ("PDP"), Sierra Parima, S.A.S. ("Sierra Parima") (Sierra Parima's Katmandu Park in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic ("Katmandu Park DR") was closed to visitors on March 7, 2024), and Destination Operations, which develops a diverse range of entertainment experiences using both Company owned and third-party licensed intellectual property, spanning location-based entertainment, dining, and retail; and (iii) Falcon's Beyond Brands brings brands and intellectual property to life through animation, movies, licensing and merchandising, gaming, as well as ride and technology sales.

Basis of presentation

The Business Combination was accounted for similar to a reverse recapitalization, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). Following the closing of the Business Combination, Falcon's Opco's Executive Chairman, Mr. Scott Demerau, together with other members of the Demerau family, continued to collectively have a controlling interest of Pubco. As the Business Combination represents a common control transaction from an accounting perspective, the Business Combination was treated similar to a reverse recapitalization. As there was no change in control, Falcon's Opco has been determined to be the accounting acquirer and Pubco was treated as the "acquired" company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Falcon's Opco issuing stock for the net assets of Pubco, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Pubco were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Subsequently, results of operations presented for the period prior to the Business Combination are those of Falcon's Opco.

Falcon's Opco was formed on April 22, 2021, in the state of Florida, for the purpose of acquiring the outstanding membership units of Katmandu Group, LLC and its subsidiaries ("Katmandu"), Falcon's Treehouse, LLC and its subsidiaries ("Treehouse") and Falcon's Treehouse National, LLC ("National"). On April 30, 2021, The Magpuri Revocable Trust, owner of Treehouse and National, and Katmandu Collections, LLLP, ("Collections") owner of Katmandu, entered into a Consolidation Agreement, whereby The Magpuri Revocable Trust contributed 100% of its ownership interests in Treehouse and National in exchange for 33.33% of the membership interests of Falcon's Opco, and Collections contributed 100% of its ownership in Katmandu in exchange for 66.67% of the membership interests of Falcon's Opco. In June 2022, Katmandu Collections, LLLP was renamed Infinite Acquisitions, LLLP and subsequently renamed Infinite Acquisitions Partners LLC ("Infinite Acquisitions").

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results of operations, cash flows, and financial position have been made. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The year-end consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and do not contain certain information included in the Company's Annual Report. Therefore, these interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries for which it exercises control. Long-term investments in affiliated companies in which the Company exercises significant influence, but which it does not control, are accounted for using the equity method. The Company does not have any significant variable interest entities or special purpose entities whose financial results are not included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The financial statements of the Company's operating foreign subsidiaries are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average monthly exchange rates prevailing during the period. Resulting translation adjustments are included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Principles of Consolidation

The non-controlling interest represents the membership interest in Falcon's Opco held by holders other than the Company.

The results of operations attributable to the non-controlling interests are included in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), and the non-controlling interests are reported as a separate component of equity.

The Company consolidates the assets, liabilities, and operating results of Falcon's Opco and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Liquidity

The Company has been engaged in expanding its physical operations through its equity method investments, developing new product offerings, raising capital and recruiting personnel. As a result, the Company has incurred a loss from operations of $11.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, accumulated deficit attributable to common stockholders of $44.3 million as of September 30, 2024, and negative cash flows from operating activities of $8.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Accordingly, the Company performed an evaluation of its ability to continue as a going concern through at least twelve months from the date of the issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 205-40, Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.

The Company has committed to fund its share of additional investment in its equity investment, Karnival TP-AQ Holdings Limited ("Karnival"), for the purpose of constructing the Vquarium Entertainment Centers in the People's Republic of China. See Note 10 - Commitments and contingencies.

The Company's development plans, and investments have been funded by a combination of debt and committed equity contributions from its stockholders and third-parties, and the Company is reliant upon its stockholders and third-parties for obtaining additional financing through debt or equity raises to fund its working capital needs, contractual commitments, and expansion plans. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has accrued material amounts of expenses in relation to its external advisors, accountants and legal costs in relation to its Form S-4 and other filings. The Company has a working capital deficiency of ($27.0) million which excludes debt that is maturing in the next 12 months as of September 30, 2024. Additionally, the Company has $10.3 million in debt that is maturing in the next 12 months. The Company does not currently have sufficient cash or liquidity to pay liabilities that are owed or are maturing at this time. There can be no assurance that the additional capital or financing raises, if completed, will provide the necessary funding for the next twelve months from the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements will be issued. As a result, there is substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve-month period following the issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Deconsolidation of Falcon's Creative Group, LLC

On July 27, 2023, pursuant to the Subscription Agreement by and between FCG and QIC Delaware, Inc., (the "Subscription Agreement"), QIC Delaware, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an affiliate of QIC, invested $30.0 million in FCG ("Strategic Investment"). Following the closing of the Subscription Agreement, FCG now has two members: QIC, holding 25% of the equity interest in the form of preferred units, and the Company, holding the remaining 75% of the equity interest in the form of common units. In connection with the Strategic Investment, FCG amended and restated its limited liability company agreement ("LLCA") to include QIC as a member and to provide QIC with certain consent, priority and preemptive rights; and the Company and FCG entered into an intercompany service agreement ("Intercompany Services Agreement") and a license agreement. Upon the closing of the Subscription Agreement, FCG received a closing payment of $17.5 million (net of $0.5 million in reimbursements relating to due diligence fees incurred by QIC). QIC released in April 2024 the remaining $12.0 million investment into FCG pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement upon the establishment of an employee retention and attraction incentive program.

QIC is entitled to redeem its preferred units on the earlier of (a) the five-year anniversary of the Strategic Investment or (b) any date on which a majority of key persons cease to be employed by FCG. The LLCA contains contractual provisions regarding the distribution of FCG's income or loss. Pursuant to these provisions, QIC is entitled to a redemption amount of the initial $30.0 million investment plus a 9% annual compounding preferred return. QIC does not absorb losses from FCG that would cause its investment to drop below this redemption amount, and any losses not absorbed by QIC are fully allocated to the Company.

QIC, as the holder of the preferred units of FCG, has priority with respect to any distributions by FCG, to the extent there is cash available. Under the LLCA, such distributions are payable (i) first, to QIC until the holders' preferred return is reduced to zero, (ii) second, to QIC until the investment amount is reduced to zero, (iii) third, to the Company until it has received an amount equal to the amount paid to QIC, and (iv) fourth, to QIC and the Company on a pro-rata basis of 25% and 75%, respectively.

The LLCA grants QIC the right to block or participate in certain significant operating and capital decisions of FCG, including the approval of FCG's budget and business plan, strategic investments, and incurring additional debt, among others. These rights allow QIC to effectively participate in significant financial and operating decisions of FCG that are made in FCG's ordinary course of business. As such, as of July 27, 2023, the Company does not have a controlling financial interest since QIC has the substantive right to participate in FCG's business decisions. Therefore, FCG was deconsolidated and accounted for as an equity method investment in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

After July 27, 2023, the assets and liabilities of FCG are no longer included within the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023.

See Note 4 - Investments and advances to equity method investments for the Company's recognition of its retained investment in FCG. The Company's retained interest in FCG will continue to be presented separately as a reportable segment in Note 11- Segment Information.

2.	Summary of significant accounting policies

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of Cash and cash equivalents and Accounts receivable. The Company places its Cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high credit quality. At times, such amounts exceed federally insured limits. Management believes that no significant concentration of credit risk exists with respect to these cash balances because of its assessment of the creditworthiness and financial viability of the respective financial institutions.

The Company provides credit to its customers located both inside and outside the United States in its normal course of business. Receivables are presented net of an allowance for credit losses based on the Company's assessment of the collectability of customer accounts. The Company maintains an allowance that provides for an adequate reserve to cover estimated losses on receivables as well as contract assets. The Company determines the adequacy of the allowance by estimating the probability of loss based on the Company's historical credit loss experience and taking into consideration current market conditions and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. The Company regularly evaluates receivable and contract asset balances considering factors such as the customer's creditworthiness, historical payment experience and the age of the outstanding balance. Changes to expected credit losses during the period are included in Credit loss expense in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). After concluding that a reserved accounts receivable is no longer collectible, the Company reduces both the gross receivable and the allowance for credit losses.

The Falcon's Creative Group segment has significant revenue concentration associated with a few customers. The Falcon's Creative Group segment is now comprised of the Company's retained equity method investment in FCG. FCG revenue continues to depend on one customer, QIC. FCG had one customer with revenues greater than 10% of total revenue, approximately $12.9 million and $43.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively.

The Company had two customers with revenue greater than 10% of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024, approximately $1.7 million (83% of total revenue) for one customer and $0.3 million (17% of total revenue) for the second customer. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company had two customers with revenue greater than 10% of total revenue, one customer had revenue of approximately $1.2 million (74% of total revenue) and the second customer had revenue of approximately $0.3 million (18% of total revenue).

The Company had one customer with revenues greater than 10% of total revenue, approximately $4.9 million (92% of total revenue) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and two customers with revenue greater than 10% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, approximately $11.1 million (69% of total revenue) for one customer and $3.6 million (22% of total revenue) for the second customer. Accounts receivable, net balances with these two customers totaled $0.2 million (99% of total Accounts receivable, net) as of September 30, 2024. Accounts receivable net balances with the two customers totaled $0.6 million (86% of total Accounts receivable, net) as of December 31, 2023.

Recently issued accounting standards

Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted as of September 30, 2024

On November 27, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, "Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures." This ASU requires additional reportable segment disclosures, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. In addition, the ASU enhances interim disclosure requirements effectively making the current annual requirements a requirement for interim reporting. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating these new disclosure requirements.

On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09 entitled Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which is primarily applicable to public companies and requires a significant expansion of the granularity of the income tax rate reconciliation as well as an expansion of other income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 requires a company to disclose specific income tax categories within the rate reconciliation table and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than 5 percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income (or loss) by the applicable statutory income tax rate. There are also additional disclosures related to income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdictions, and to income taxes paid. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In March 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2024-01, "Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards". This ASU demonstrates how an entity should apply the scope guidance in paragraph 718-10-15-3 to determine whether profits interest and similar awards should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. The amendments in this update related to the scope application issue apply to all reporting entities that account for profits interest awards as compensation to employees or non-employees in return for goods or services. For public business entities, this ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and interim periods within those annual periods. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company evaluated the effect of this update on the Company's financial statements and anticipates no material impact to the consolidated financial statements when adopted in the fiscal year beginning 2025.

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-02, "Codification Improvements-Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements". The amendments in this Update affect a variety of Topics in the Codification. The amendments apply to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected accounting guidance. This update contains amendments to the Codification that remove references to various Concepts Statements. In most instances, the references are extraneous and not required to understand or apply the guidance. In other instances, the references were used in prior statements to provide guidance in certain topical areas. This ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company evaluated the effect of this update on the Company's financial statements and anticipates no material impact to the consolidated financial statements when adopted in the fiscal year beginning 2025.

3.

Revenue

As of July 27, 2023, FCG was deconsolidated and accounted for as an equity method investment in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) therefore does not include activity related to FCG after deconsolidation during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and includes approximately seven months of activity related to FCG prior to deconsolidation during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Prior to deconsolidation, FCG's operations generated a majority of the Company's consolidated revenue and contract asset and liability balances. See total revenues of Falcon's Creative Group, LLC under Note 4 - Investments and advances to equity method investments.

Disaggregated components of revenue for the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively, are as follows:

		For the three months ended September 30			For the nine months ended September 30
		2024			2023			2024			2023

Total revenue		$	2,069			$	1,581			$	5,383			$	16,097

In March 2023, the Company licensed the right to use Ride Media Content to Sierra Parima. See Note 7 - Related party transactions for further discussion. After the deconsolidation of FCG, the Company recognizes related party revenue for corporate shared service support provided to FCG. Total related party revenues from services provided to our equity method investments were $2.0 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively and $5.3 million and $4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively. Of the total related party revenues from services provided to our equity method investments, the Company recognized $1.7 million and $4.9 million revenue related to services provided to FCG for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively.

The following table presents the components of Accounts receivable, net:

		As of
		September 30, 2024			December 31, 2023
Related party		$	219			$	632
Other			-				64
Total		$	219			$	696

Revenue recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, that was included in the contract liability balance as of December 31, 2022, was $1.2 million. This revenue was related to FCG, and therefore there was no revenue recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, that was included in the contract liability balance as of December 31, 2023, after FCG's deconsolidation.

Sierra Parima

Sierra Parima is an equity method investment with Meliá Group focused on the development and operation of hotel resorts and theme parks. The Company has 50% voting rights and shares 50% of profits and losses in this joint venture. Sierra Parima had one theme park in Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic, the Katmandu Park DR. The Company has concluded that Sierra Parima is a variable interest entity ("VIE"), that the Company does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of Sierra Parima, as such decisions are taken by the unanimous consent of the representatives of the joint venture partners. The Company, therefore, does not consolidate Sierra Parima and accounts for the investment as an equity method investment.

Full Impairment of Investment in Sierra Parima

Katmandu Park DR completed construction and opened to visitors in early 2023. Although various operational challenges encountered upon opening were resolved, Katmandu Park DR visitor levels were below management's expectations. Melia and the Company jointly decided to wind down operations and are evaluating avenues for potential liquidation or sale of the property. On March 7, 2024, Katmandu Park DR was closed to visitors.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company's equity investment in Sierra Parima was deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. The Company estimated the fair value of its investment in Sierra Parima utilizing a discounted cash flow analysis and supported by a market multiples approach. The impairment is the result of management's estimates and assumptions regarding the likelihood of certain outcomes related to various liquidation and sale scenarios and pending legal matters, the timing of which remains uncertain. These estimates were determined primarily using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). The estimates that the Company makes with respect to its equity method investment are based upon assumptions that management believes are reasonable, and the impact of variations in these estimates or the underlying assumptions could be material.

Based on the estimated sale or liquidation proceeds from Sierra Parima, and Sierra Parima's outstanding debts remaining to be settled, the fair value of the Company's investment in Sierra Parima was determined to be zero. There are no other liquidity arrangements, guarantees or other financial commitments between the Company and Sierra Parima. The Company is not committed to provide any additional funding as of September 30, 2024. Any future capital fundings will be discretionary.

iv)

Karnival

On November 2, 2021, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement to acquire a 50% interest in Karnival, a joint venture established with Raging Power Limited, a subsidiary of New World Development Company Limited ("Raging Power"). The purpose of the joint venture is to hold ownership interests in entities developing and operating amusement centers located in the People's Republic of China. The first location is currently under development in Hong Kong. The Company has concluded that Karnival is a VIE, that the Company does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of Karnival, as such decisions are taken by the unanimous consent of the representatives of the joint venture partners. The Company, therefore, does not consolidate Karnival and accounts for the investment as an equity method investment. The Company and its joint venture partners are committed to funding non-interest-bearing advances of $9 million (HKD 69.7 million) each, over a three-year period. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had funded $6.6 million (HKD 51 million). These advances are repayable to the joint venture partners based on a percentage of gross revenues from operations commencing from the first year of operations. The advances provided to Karnival are accounted for as investments and classified within Investments and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures equity method investments. There are no other liquidity arrangements, guarantees or other financial commitments between the Company and Karnival. Therefore, the Company's maximum risk of financial loss is the investment balance and remaining unfunded capital commitment of $2.4 million (HKD 18.7 million) as of September 30, 2024.

Investments and advances to equity method investments as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, consisted of the following:

Falcon's Creative Group provides master planning, media, interactive and audio production, project management, experiential technology and attraction hardware development services and attraction hardware sales on a work-for-hire model. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, Falcon's Creative Group is now deconsolidated effective July 27, 2023, and accounted for as an equity method investment in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The operating segment still remains a reportable segment for the Company.

The Company's equity method investments, PDP and Sierra Parima (before Katmandu Park DR was closed to visitors on March 7, 2024), develop, own and operate hotels, theme parks and retail, dining and entertainment venues. Destinations Operations provides development and management services for themed entertainment to PDP, Sierra Parima and new development opportunities, including our investment in Karnival. The Company collectively refers to the Destination Operations, PDP and Sierra Parima as Falcon's Beyond Destinations.

Reportable segments' measure of profit and loss is earnings before interest, taxes, foreign exchange gain (loss), gain on deconsolidation of FCG, impairments, depreciation and amortization and change in fair values in warrant and earnout liabilities. See Note 7 - Related party transactions for transactions between the Company's wholly-owned businesses and equity method investments.

Earnouts

At the closing of the Business Combination, the Company issued 1,937,500 Earnout Shares in the form of Class A Common Stock and 75,562,500 Earnout Shares in the form of Class B Common Stock. The Earnout Shares were placed into an escrow account for the benefit of certain holders pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

Earnout Shares were deposited into escrow at Closing to be earned, released, and delivered upon satisfaction of certain milestones related to the earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and the gross revenue of the Company during periods between July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2024, and the volume weighted average closing sale price of the Company's shares of Class A Common Stock during the five-year period beginning on the one-year anniversary of the Acquisition Merger and ending on the six-year anniversary of the Acquisition Merger. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, 187,500 Class A shares were earned and released. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, 7,312,500 Class B shares were earned and released. 312,500 Earnout Shares in the form of Class A Common Stock were forfeited and 12,187,500 Earnout Shares in the form of Class B Common Stock were forfeited.

Prior to September 30, 2024, the Earnout Shares were classified as a liability and measured at fair value, with changes in fair value included in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). On September 30, 2024, earnout participants agreed to forfeit all remaining earnout shares held in escrow, which were to be released and earned based on meeting EBITDA and revenue targets. An aggregate of 437,500 shares of Class A common stock and 17,062,500 shares of Class B common stock and an equal number of Falcon's Opco units were forfeited in connection with the earnout shares forfeiture.

The forfeiture is treated as a modification of the original earnout agreement. The remaining earnout shares which are to be released and earned based on the Company's stock price meet the requirements for equity classification after the modification. The Company adjusted the fair value of the earnout shares a final time on September 30, 2024, immediately prior to the modification. The total adjusted liability balance, including the amount associated with the forfeited earnout shares, was reclassified into equity as of September 30, 2024.

Prior to reclassification into equity, the fair value of the earnout liability was $250.1 million and $488.6 million as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized $(40.6) million and $(172.3) million of gain related to the change in fair value of earnout liabilities included in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). After the reclassification to equity, the earnout shares will not require subsequent fair value measurement. See Note 16 - Fair value measurement for the activity related to the earnout liability during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

13.	Stock warrants

As of September 30, 2024, there are 5,198,420 warrants outstanding. The warrants outstanding are exercisable, at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, for 1.034999 shares of Class A common stock. 7,349 warrants were exercised for 7,605 shares of Class A Common Stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment under ASC 815. As such, the warrants are classified as liabilities and are adjusted to fair value at the end of each reporting period.

The Company remeasures the fair value of the warrants based on their quoted market price. The Company recognized a gain of $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and a loss of $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30,2024 related to the change in fair value of warrant liabilities, which is recognized in Change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

The following table summarizes the Company's outstanding common stock warrants as of September 30, 2024:

14.	Share-Based Compensation

The Company adopted a share-based compensation plan (the "Plan") under which 959,179 RSUs are outstanding. Each vested Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive one Class A Common Share. Under the Plan, RSUs with service-based conditions may be granted to directors, officers, employees, and non-employees. RSUs were granted to employees of both the Company and FCG. However, FCG fully reimburses FBG for the compensation cost associated with these grants. As such, expenses related to the RSUs granted to employees of FCG do not represent a purchase of services or contribution to FCG.

The RSUs do not provide the grantee with an option to choose settlement in cash or stock. The holder of the RSU shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, a shareholder of the Company, including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to dividends, in respect to the RSUs and any shares underlying the RSUs and deliverable under the Plan unless and until such shares shall have been issued by the Company and held of record by such holder. A summary of the Plan's RSUs award activity is as follows:

		Restricted Stock Units
Nonvested at January 1, 2024			939,330
Granted			50,874
Forfeited			31,025
Vested			-
Nonvested at September 30, 2024			959,179
Vested at September 30, 2024			-

The RSUs under the Plan will vest over a five-year period following the one-year anniversary of the date of grant. The grant dates of RSUs associated with the Plan is December 21, 2023, May 21, 2024, and June 25, 2024. The fair value of these RSUs is estimated based on the fair value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant using the closing price on the day of grant. A summary of the Plan's RSUs vesting schedule is as follows:

Vesting Date for RSUs granted on December 21, 2023		RSU Vested (% of total)
December 21, 2024			15.0	%
December 21, 2025			17.5	%
December 21, 2026			20.0	%
December 21, 2027			22.5	%
December 21, 2028			25.0	%

Vesting Date for RSUs granted on May 21, 2024		RSU Vested (% of total)
May 21, 2025			15.0	%
May 21, 2026			17.5	%
May 21, 2027			20.0	%
May 21, 2028			22.5	%
May 21, 2029			25.0	%

Vesting Date for RSUs granted on June 25, 2024		RSU Vested (% of total)
June 25, 2025			15.0	%
June 25, 2026			17.5	%
June 25, 2027			20.0	%
June 25, 2028			22.5	%
June 25, 2029			25.0	%

The Company elected the straight-line attribution method to account for the compensation cost over the five-year requisite service period for the entire award, as long as the participant continues to provide service to the Company. Forfeitures are accounted for at the time the forfeiture occurs.

The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $0.4 million and $1.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, which is included within selling, general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The $0.6 million and $0.2 million compensation cost for RSU's granted to FCG employees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, are recognized as a receivable from FCG and do not impact the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

15.	Equity and net loss per share

Authorized Capitalization

The total amount of the Company's authorized capital stock consists of (a) 650,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share consisting of (i) 500,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, and (ii) 150,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, and (b) 30,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

Common Stock

The rights of the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock have various terms, as follows:

Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held of record by such holder on all matters on which stockholders generally are entitled to vote. Shares of Class B Common Stock carry the same voting rights as shares of Class A Common Stock but have no economic terms. Class B Common Stock is exchangeable, along with common units of Falcon's Opco, into Class A Common Stock.

Preferred Stock

There are no outstanding shares of preferred stock as of September 30, 2024, or December 31, 2023.

The weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, used to determine the Company's Net income per share reflects the following:

	For three months ended			For nine months ended
(amounts in thousands, except number of shares and amount per share)		September 30, 2024			September 30, 2024

The Company applies the treasury stock method to the Warrants and restricted stock units ("RSUs"), the contingently issuable shares method to the Earnout shares, and the if-converted method for the Exchangeable noncontrolling interests, if dilutive. The following securities were not included in the computation because the effect would be anti-dilutive or issuance of such shares is contingent upon the satisfaction of certain conditions which were not satisfied by the end of the period:

		For the three months ended			For the nine months ended
		September 30, 2024			September 30, 2024
Class A earnout shares			1,000,000				1,000,000
Class B earnout shares			39,000,000				39,000,000
Warrants to purchase common stock			5,198,420				5,198,420
RSUs			915,568				915,568

On September 30, 2024, the Company's board of directors declared a stock dividend of 0.2 shares of Class A common stock per share of Class A common stock outstanding, payable on December 17, 2024, to stockholders of record as of December 10, 2024 (the "Stock Dividend"). Additionally, as a result of the Stock Dividend, holders of the Company's Class B common stock will receive a stock dividend of 0.2 shares of Class B common stock per share of Class B common stock outstanding, and the Falcon's Beyond Global, LLC common units that are issued and outstanding will be adjusted to reflect the same economic equivalent of the Stock Dividend. Outstanding warrants, restricted stock units and other equity awards will be similarly adjusted in accordance with their terms. Pro forma earnings per share amounts are disclosed below to show the effect of the Stock Dividend.

16.	Fair value measurement

The following table provides information related to the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023:

		September 30, 2024
		Level 1			Level 2			Level 3			Total
Liabilities:
Warrant liabilities		$	5,614			$	-			$	-			$	5,614
Earnout liabilities							-				-
		$	5,614			$	-			$	-			$	5,614

		December 31, 2023
		Level 1			Level 2			Level 3			Total
Liabilities:
Warrant liabilities		$	3,904			$	-			$	-			$	3,904
Earnout liabilities			-				-				488,641				488,641
		$	3,904			$	-			$	488,641			$	492,545

The warrant liability fair value is based on quoted market prices in active markets, and therefore is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The earnouts based on revenue and EBITDA as well as the earnouts based on the Company's stock price have been classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy as the fair value is derived using a Monte Carlo simulation analysis in a risk neutral framework, which uses a combination of observable (Level 2) and unobservable (Level 3) inputs. Key estimates and assumptions impacting the fair value measurement include the Company's revenue and EBITDA forecasts as well as the assumptions listed in the tables below.

The Company estimated the fair value per share of the underlying common stock based, in part, on the results of third-party valuations and additional factors deemed relevant. The risk-free interest rate was determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve for time periods approximately equal to the remaining contractual term of the earnouts. The Company has not paid cash dividends and does not intend to do so in the foreseeable future The payment of any dividends is within the discretion of the Company's board of directors and will be dependent upon the Company's revenue and earnings, if any, capital requirements, and general financial condition. Further, the Company's ability to declare dividends may be limited by the terms of financing or other agreements entered into by us or our subsidiaries from time to time, including certain consent rights in connection with the Strategic Investment. Prior to the Business Combination, the Company was a private company and lacked company-specific historical and implied volatility information of its stock, and as such, the expected stock volatility was based on the historical volatility of publicly traded peer companies for a term equal to the remaining expected term of the warrants.

On September 30, 2024, following the earnout forfeiture, the Company adjusted the fair value of all earnout shares a final time, immediately before the modification and ignoring the effect of the modification. The total adjusted liability balance, including the amount associated with the forfeited earnout shares, was reclassified into equity as of September 30, 2024. After reclassification into equity, the earnout shares will not require subsequent fair value measurement. See Note 12 - Earnouts.

The following table presents the unobservable inputs of the earnout liability for earnout shares based on revenue and EBITDA targets:

		September 30, 2024			December 31, 2023
Current stock price			9.91				12.30
Earnout period - beginning			7/1/2023				7/1/2023

Since July 27, 2023, FCG has been deconsolidated and accounted for as an equity method investment in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. FCG generated a majority of the Company's consolidated revenue and contract asset and liability balances. Any discussions related to results, operations, and accounting policies associated with FCG are referring to the periods prior to deconsolidation. After deconsolidation, as of July 27, 2023, FCG's results of operations are included in the Company's consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) as a component of Share of gain (loss) from equity method investments.

On July 27, 2023, pursuant to the Subscription Agreement (the "Subscription Agreement") by and between FCG and QIC Delaware, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an affiliate of Qiddiya Investment Company ("QIC"), QIC agreed to invest $30.0 million in FCG (the "Strategic Investment"). On July 27, 2023, in connection with the Strategic Investment, FCG received a net closing payment from QIC of $17.5 million (net of $0.5 million in reimbursements). In addition, in March 2024, the Company established the Falcon's Beyond Global, LLC Long-Term Incentive Plan, effective as of January 1, 2024 (the "Opco Incentive Plan") to allow Falcon's Opco to reward certain eligible employees of Falcon's Opco and its subsidiaries, including FCG. As a result of establishing the Opco Incentive Plan, in April 2024, QIC released the remaining $12.0 million investment into FCG pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement. These funds are to be used exclusively by FCG to fund its operations and growth and cannot be used to satisfy the commitments of other segments.

Liquidity and Going Concern

The Company has been engaged in expanding its operations through its equity method investments, developing new product offerings, raising capital and recruiting personnel. The Company has incurred a loss from operations, an accumulated deficit, and negative cash flows from operating activities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. Accordingly, as of August 13, 2024, the Company performed an evaluation of its ability to continue as a going concern through at least twelve months from the date of the issuance of the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company's development plans, and investments have been funded by a combination of debt and committed equity contributions from its stockholders, and the Company is reliant upon distributions from equity method investments, its stockholders, and third parties for obtaining additional financing through debt or equity raises to fund its working capital needs, contractual commitments, and expansion plans. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has accrued material amounts of expenses in relation to its external advisors, accountants and legal costs in relation to the Business Combination. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $(27.0) million which excludes debt maturing in the next 12 months. Additionally, the Company has $10.3 million in debt that is maturing in the next 12 months. The Company does not currently have sufficient cash or liquidity to pay liabilities that are owed or are maturing at this time. There can be no assurance that additional capital or financing raises, if completed, will provide the necessary funding for the next twelve months from the date of this Quarterly Report. This Quarterly Report does not reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

In April 2024, Falcon's Opco entered into a term loan agreement with Katmandu Ventures, LLC ("Katmandu Ventures"), a greater than 10% shareholder of the Company, pursuant to which Katmandu Ventures made a loan to Falcon's Opco in the principal amount of approximately $7.2 million, and a term loan agreement with Universal Kat Holdings, LLC ("Universal Kat") pursuant to which Universal Kat has made a loan to Falcon's Opco in the principal amount of approximately $1.3 million. Such term loans bear interest at a rate of 8.88% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears, and will mature on March 31, 2025. Approximately $5.4 million of the proceeds of the term loans was used to repay a portion of the outstanding loans under the Infinite Acquisitions revolving credit arrangement.

On June 14, 2024, Falcon's Opco entered into a loan amendment with Katmandu Ventures and Universal Kat to defer the first interest and principal payment from June 30, 2024 to the earlier of 1) September 30, 2024; 2) within five business days after the date upon which Falcon's Opco receives a distribution of funds from Producciones De Parques, S.L. as result of an asset transaction; or 3) within five business days after the date upon which Falcon's Opco receives cash proceeds as the result of a debt or equity fundraising transaction with a third party resulting in net proceeds of $20 million or more.

Following the amendment above, Universal Kat assigned its entire loan, and Katmandu Ventures assigned $6.3 million of its loan to FAST Sponsor II, LLC ("FAST II Sponsor"), in exchange for the sale of Class A shares of Falcon's Opco held by FAST II Sponsor. Falcon's Opco provided written consent of the assignment. This transfer was between FAST II Sponsor and Katmandu Ventures and Universal Kat, respectively. There were no additional changes to the loan agreement terms due to this reassignment. The repayment schedules of these two loans were modified again on October 18, 2024. See Note 17 - Subsequent Events in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Prior to September 30, 2024, the Earnout Shares were classified as a liability and measured at fair value, with changes in fair value included in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). On September 30, 2024, earnout participants agreed to forfeit all remaining earnout shares held in escrow, which were to be to be released and earned based on meeting EBITDA and revenue targets. An aggregate of 437,500 shares of Class A common stock and 17,062,500 shares of Class B common stock and an equal number of Falcon's Opco units were forfeited in connection with the earnout shares forfeiture.

The forfeiture is treated as a modification of the original earnout agreement. The remaining earnout shares which are to be released and earned based on the Company's stock price meet the requirements for equity classification after the modification. The Company adjusted the fair value of the earnout shares a final time on September 30, 2024, immediately prior to the modification. The total adjusted liability balance, including the amount associated with the forfeited earnout shares, was reclassified into equity as of September 30, 2024.

Prior to reclassification into equity, the fair value of the earnout liability was $250.1 million and $488.6 million as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized $(40.6) million and $(172.3) million of gain related to the change in fair value of earnout liabilities included in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). After the reclassification to equity, the earnout shares will not require subsequent fair value measurement. See Note 16 - Fair value measurement in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the activity related to the earnout liability during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Services transferred over time:
Design and project management services		$	3			$	1,070
Media production services			-				196
Attraction hardware and turnkey sales			-				39
Other			2,066				276
Total revenue		$	2,069			$	1,581

Revenue increased by $0.5 million to $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to a $1.8 million increase in revenue from services provided to the Company's equity method investments during the three-month period ended September 30, 2024. This was partially offset by a decrease of $1.3 million during the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, as a result of the FCG deconsolidation.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expense increased by $0.2 million to $4.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $4.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily related to a $0.4 million increase in audit fees and professional services fees and a $0.6 million increase in payroll, payroll taxes and benefits to support the expansion of the business and for public company related costs. This was partially offset by a $0.5 million decrease in sales and marketing expenses, and a $0.3 million decrease in office and administrative expenses due to the deconsolidation of FCG.

Transaction expense

The Company incurred zero and $8.9 million in transaction expenses related to the Business Combination in the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Credit loss expense

The Company recognized zero and a $5.2 million credit loss expense related to receivables from Sierra Parima in the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Research and Development

Research and development expense decreased by $0.3 million to less than $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, due to completion of several major FBB division projects in 2023.

Depreciation and amortization expense

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as a result of the FCG deconsolidation.

Share of gain or (loss) from equity method investments

		Three months ended September 30, 2024			Three months ended September 30, 2023
PDP		$	1,619			$	1,527
Sierra Parima			-				(1,616	)
Karnival			77				132
FCG			(1,658	)			(1,598	)
Total share of gain or (loss) from equity method investments		$	38			$	(1,555	)

Share of gain from equity method investments increased by $1.6 million to less than $0.1 million gain for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a ($1.6) million loss for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The change in gain or loss from equity method investments was driven by:

●

PDP: Share of net income from PDP increased by $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the corresponding period in 2023. PDP's net income increased by $0.2 million driven by a $2.0 million increase in revenue driven by rate increases at the hotel properties. This was partially offset by unfavorable changes of ($0.2) million in hotel expenses, ($0.7) million in general and administrative expenses, ($0.6) million in derivative income and ($0.3) million in income taxes. The Company recognized its 50% share of PDP's earnings.

●

Sierra Parima: As of December 31, 2023, equity investment in Sierra Parima was deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired and the fair value of the Company's investment in Sierra Parima was determined to be zero. Therefore, there was no gain or loss recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a $1.6 million share of net loss during the three months ended September 30, 2023. See Note 4 - Investments and advances to equity method investments in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

●

Karnival: A less than $0.1 million decrease in share of net income from Karnival for three months ended September 30, 2024.

●

FCG: Share of net loss from FCG was ($1.7) million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to ($1.6) million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, following the deconsolidation of FCG on July 27, 2023. Operating income of $0.1 million, and net loss of ($0.1) million were earned during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to an operating loss of ($5.2) million and net loss of ($5.1) million for the corresponding period of 2023. The Company recognizes 100% of net income from FCG, less the 9% preferred return to QIC and the amortization of the basis difference on deconsolidation of FCG. FCG net loss of ($0.1) million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, was reduced by adjustments of ($1.6) million comprised of ($0.7) million in accretion of preference dividend and fees, and ($0.8) million in amortization of basis difference. FCG recorded revenues of $13.2 million in the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, representing an increase of $8.6 million or 190% over the three-month period ended September 30, 2023. As previously announced on January 18, 2024, FCG entered into a consultancy agreement with QIC to provide a Dragon Ball theme park over the course of approximately two years. FCG recognized $7.9 million in revenue relating to this Dragon Ball consultancy agreement during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Gain on deconsolidation of FCG

The Company recognized a gain on deconsolidation of FCG of $27.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023. The gain recognized on deconsolidation is the difference between the estimated fair value of the Company's retained investment in FCG LLC and the carrying value of FCG LLC's net assets. See Deconsolidation of Falcon's Creative Group LLC under Note 1 - Description of business and basis of presentation and Note 5 - Investments and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Change in fair value of warrant liability

Gain due to change in fair value of warrant liabilities was $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The warrant liability relates to the Business Combination which occurred after September 30, 2023, therefore there was no such loss during the three months ended September 30, 2023. Changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities are related primarily to changes in share market price.

Change in fair value of earnout liability

Gain due to change in fair value of earnout liability was $40.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The change was driven by a decrease in the market price of the Company's stock between June 30, 2024, and September 30, 2024. The earnout liability relates to the Business Combination which occurred after September 30, 2023, therefore, there was no such loss during the three months ended September 30, 2023. As of September 30, 2024, all EBITDA and revenue based earnout shares have been earned or forfeited. The remaining earnout shares based on Company stock price targets have been reclassified to equity and will not require subsequent fair value measurement. See Note 12 - Earnouts in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Foreign exchange transaction gain (loss)

Foreign exchange transaction gain was $0.8 million and ($0.9) million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively. Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses are primarily due to fluctuations between the Euro and dollar currency exchange rates in relation to US dollar advances to our European subsidiary.

Income tax

Income tax benefit was less than $0.1 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2024, and September 30, 2023.

Segment Reporting

The following table presents selected information about our segment's results for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023. Subsequent to FCG's deconsolidation on July 27, 2023, FCG segment income or loss is comprised of only the Company's equity method share of FCG's income or loss:

Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024, increased by $0.5 million to $2.1 million compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Revenue related to services provided to equity method investees increased by $1.8 million, partially offset by $1.3 million decrease as a result of the FCG deconsolidation. See Deconsolidation of Falcon's Creative Group LLC under Note 1 - Description of business and basis of presentation in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Total segment loss from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2024, decreased by $7.5 million to ($0.8) million loss compared to ($8.3) million loss for the three months ended September 30, 2023, due to the following:

●

FCG segment loss for the three months ended September 30, 2024, decreased by $3.2 million to ($1.7) million loss as compared to loss of ($4.9) million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily as a result of an increase in revenues and improved margins on new long-term contracts, offset by an increase in amortization of basis difference, intangible assets and deferred fees from three months compared with two months in the corresponding period.

●

Destinations Operations segment loss from operations decreased $0.4 million to ($0.1) million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to loss of ($0.5) million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, due to $0.3 million of research and development expense incurred for the three months ended September 30, 2023, that was not incurred in the three months ended September 30, 2024.

●

PDP segment income for the three months ended September 30, 2024, increased by $0.1 million to $1.6 million from $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. PDP's net income increased to $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The $0.2 million increase in PDP's net income was driven by a $2.0 million increase in revenue, which resulted from increases in rates at the hotel properties. This was partially offset by unfavorable changes of ($0.2) million in hotel expenses, ($0.7) million in general and administrative expenses, ($0.6) million in derivative income and ($0.3) million in income taxes. The Company recognized its 50% share of net income within the PDP segment.

●

The Sierra Parima Katmandu Park closed in March of 2024 following financial, operational, and infrastructure challenges, closing the segment going forward. The investment has been fully impaired as of December 31, 2023, and the Company has no further obligation to participate in losses of Sierra Parima. As a result, there were no segment operations to report for the Sierra Parima segment for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

●

FBB segment loss from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2024, decreased by $1.7 million to ($0.7) million compared to loss of ($2.4) million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, FBB recorded revenue of less than $0.1 million but incurred selling, general and administrative expenses of $0.7, resulting in segment loss of ($0.7) million. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, FBB recorded revenue of less than $0.1 million and recognized $2.1 million of selling, general and administrative expenses and $0.2 million of research and development expense, resulting in a loss of ($2.4) million for FBB for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

●

Loss from intersegment eliminations decreased by $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, due to the deconsolidation of FCG. There are no other intersegment eliminations.

Reportable segment measures of profit and loss are earnings before interest, foreign exchange gains and losses, unallocated corporate expenses, impairments and depreciation and amortization expense. Results of operating segments include costs directly attributable to the segment including project costs, payroll and payroll-related expenses and overhead directly related to the business segment operations. Unallocated corporate overhead costs include costs related to accounting, audit, and corporate legal expenses. Unallocated corporate overhead costs are presented as a reconciling item between total income (losses) from reportable segments and the Company's consolidated financial results.

Revenue decreased by $10.7 million to $5.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $16.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $14.4 million decrease due to the deconsolidation of FCG. This was partially offset by a $5.0 million increase in revenue for shares services provided by FBG to FCG during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expense decreased by $6.6 million to $16.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $23.2 million for nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily related to a $5.1 million decrease in audit fees and professional services fees, a $1.5 million decrease in office and administrative expenses, and a $1.6 million decrease in sales and marketing expenses due to the deconsolidation of FCG. These decreases were partially offset by incremental shared-services headcount to support the expansion of the business and for public company related costs, representing a $1.6 million increase in payroll, payroll taxes, and benefits.

Transaction expense

The Company incurred less than $0.1 million and $8.9 million in transaction expenses related to the Business Combination in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Credit loss expense

The Company recognized less than $0.1 million and $5.5 million in credit loss expense related to receivables from Sierra Parima in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Research and Development

Research and development expense decreased $1.2 million to less than $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, due to completion of several major FBB division projects.

Depreciation and amortization expense

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $1.6 million to less than $0.1 million for nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $1.6 million for nine months ended September 30, 2023, due to the deconsolidation of FCG.

FCG			(137	)			(1,598	)
Total share of gain or (loss) from equity method investments		$	2,912			$	(3,690	)

Share of gain or loss from equity method investments increased by $6.6 million to a $2.9 million gain for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a ($3.7) million loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The change in gain or loss from equity method investments was driven by:

●

PDP: Share of net income from PDP increased by $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the corresponding period in 2023, primarily driven by a $1.7 million increase in PDP's net income. PDP's increase in net income was driven by a $4.0 million increase in revenue partially offset by unfavorable changes of ($0.6) million in hotel expenses, ($0.8) million in general and administrative expenses and ($0.9) million in income taxes. The Company recognized its 50% share of PDP's net income.

Sierra Parima: As of December 31, 2023, equity investment in Sierra Parima was deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired and the fair value of the Company's investment in Sierra Parima was determined to be zero. Therefore, there was no gain or loss recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a $4.3 million share of net loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. See Note 4 - Investments and advances to equity method investments in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

●

Karnival: A less than $0.1 million increase in share of net income from Karnival for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily driven by interest income.

●

FCG: Share of net loss from FCG was $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, which was consolidated by the Company until July 27, 2023, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company recognizes 100% of net income, 9% preferred return to QIC and amortization of the basis difference on deconsolidation of FCG. FCG net income of $4.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was reduced by adjustments of ($4.3) million comprised of ($1.8) million in accretion of preference dividend and fees, and ($2.5) million in amortization of basis difference. See Note 4 - Investments and advances to equity method investments in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

FCG recorded revenues of $43.8 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, representing an increase of $26.0 million or 146% over the corresponding period of 2023. As previously announced on January 18, 2024, FCG entered into a consultancy agreement with QIC to provide a Dragon Ball theme park over the course of approximately two years. FCG recognized $29.2 million in revenue relating to this Dragon Ball consultancy agreement during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Operating income of $3.9 million, and net income of $4.2 million were earned during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to an operating loss of ($7.5) million and net loss of ($7.5) million for the corresponding period of 2023.

Gain on deconsolidation of FCG

The Company recognized a gain on deconsolidation of FCG of $27.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The gain recognized on deconsolidation is the difference between the estimated fair value of the Company's retained investment in FCG LLC and the carrying value of FCG LLC's net assets. See Deconsolidation of Falcon's Creative Group LLC under Note 1 - Description of business and basis of presentation and Note 5 - Investments and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Interest expense

Interest expense increased by $0.2 million to $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Change in fair value of warrant liability

Loss due to change in fair value of warrant liabilities was ($1.7) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The warrant liability relates to the Business Combination which occurred after September 30, 2023, therefore there was no loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities are related primarily to changes in share market price.

Change in fair value of earnout liability

Gain due to change in fair value of earnout liability was $172.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, driven by a $20.6 million decrease in the market price of the Company's stock between December 31, 2023 and April 29, 2024 when the 2023 performance based awards were remeasured prior to release of shares from escrow, a $9.4 million change in assumptions regarded performance expectations in Q4, 2024 due to timing of contracts, and a $142.3 million decrease in the remaining earnout liabilities due to a decrease in the market price of the Company's stock between December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2024. The earnout liability relates to the Business Combination which occurred after September 30, 2023, therefore, there was no such loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. As of September 30, 2024, all EBITDA and revenue based earnout shares have been earned or forfeited. The remaining earnout shares based on Company stock price targets have been reclassified to equity and will not require subsequent fair value measurement. See Note 12 - Earnouts in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Foreign exchange transaction gain (loss)

Foreign exchange transaction gain increased $0.7 million to $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to ($0.4) million loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to the unrealized foreign exchange loss on U.S. denominated related party debt with a Spanish subsidiary as the U.S. dollar strengthened against the Euro during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and weakened against the Euro during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Income tax

Income tax benefit was less than $0.1 million for both the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and September 30, 2023.

Segment Reporting

The following table presents selected information about our segments' results for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023. Subsequent to FCG's deconsolidation on July 27, 2023, FCG segment income or loss is comprised of only the Company's equity method share of FCG's income or loss:

Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 decreased $10.7 million to $5.4 million compared to $16.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily driven by a decrease of $14.5 million due to the deconsolidation of FCG. This decrease is partially offset by an increase of $4.9 million for services provided to equity method investees. See Deconsolidation of Falcon's Creative Group LLC under Note 1 - Description of business and basis of presentation in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Total segment loss from operations decreased $13.1 million to a ($0.3) million loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to ($13.4) million loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, due to the following:

●

FCG segment loss decreased $5.5 million from ($5.6) million segment loss in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, to ($0.1) million segment loss in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily as a result of an increase in revenues and improved margins on new long-term contracts. These positive results were partially offset by adjustments of ($4.3) million comprised of ($1.8) million in accretion of preference dividend and fees, and ($2.5) million in incremental amortization on the intangible assets on the difference between the Company's share of net assets measured at fair value and FCG's carrying value.

FCG recorded operating income of $3.9 million, and net income of $4.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to an operating loss of ($7.5) million and net loss of ($7.5) million for the corresponding period of 2023.

●

Destination Operations segment loss from operations decreased $0.5 million to (0.8) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to loss of ($1.3) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 due to a reduction in marketing and research and development spend for projects that were completed in 2023.

●

PDP segment income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, increased by $0.9 million to $2.8 million from $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. PDP's net income increased to $5.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $3.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The $1.7 million increase in PDP's net income was driven by a $4.0 million increase in revenue partially offset by unfavorable changes of ($0.6) million in hotel expenses, ($0.8) million in general and administrative expenses and ($0.9) million in income taxes. The Company recognized its 50% share of net income within the PDP segment.

●

The Sierra Parima Katmandu Park closed in March of 2024 following financial, operational, and infrastructure challenges, closing the segment going forward. The investment has been fully impaired as of December 31, 2023, and the Company has no further obligation to participate in losses of Sierra Parima. As a result, there were no segment operations to report for Sierra Parima segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

●

FBB segment loss from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, decreased by $1.3 million to ($2.2) million compared to ($3.4) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, FBB recorded revenue of less than $0.1 million but incurred $2.1 million in selling, general and administrative expenses, and additional expenses of $0.1 million, resulting in segment loss of ($2.2) million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, FBB recorded revenue of $1.5 million, incurred $3.9 million of selling, general and administrative expenses, and incurred $1.0 million of research and development expenses, resulting in segment loss of ($3.4) million.

●	Loss from intersegment eliminations for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, decreased by $0.9 million due to the deconsolidation of FCG. There are no other intersegment eliminations.

Reportable segment measures of profit and loss are earnings before interest, foreign exchange gains and losses, unallocated corporate expenses, impairments and depreciation and amortization expense. Results of operating segments include costs directly attributable to the segment including project costs, payroll and payroll-related expenses and overhead directly related to the business segment operations. Unallocated corporate overhead costs include costs related to accounting, audit, and corporate legal expenses. Unallocated corporate overhead costs are presented as a reconciling item between total income (losses) from reportable segments and the Company's consolidated financial results. For more information about our Segment Reporting, see Note 11 - Segment information in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We prepare our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with US GAAP, we disclose information regarding Adjusted EBITDA which is a non-GAAP measure. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), determined in accordance with US GAAP, for the period presented, before net interest and expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, transaction expenses related to the business combination, credit loss expense, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, and change in fair value of earnout liabilities, intangible asset impairment loss, and gain on deconsolidation of FCG.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as it eliminates the non-cash depreciation and amortization expense that results from our capital investments and intangible assets recognized in any business combination and improves comparability by eliminating the interest expense associated with our debt facilities and eliminating the change in fair value of warrant and earnout liabilities, which may not be comparable with other companies based on our structure.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under US GAAP. Some of these limitations are (i) it does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments, (ii) it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs, (iii) it does not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt, (iv) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements, (v) it does not adjust for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows, and (vi) other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

The following table sets forth reconciliations of net loss under US GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA for the following periods:

		Three months ended September 30, 2024			Three months ended September 30, 2023

Net income increased by $35.0 million to $39.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $4.3 million net income for the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily driven by a $40.6 million gain from change in fair value of earnout liabilities in 2024, a $17.9 million decrease in operating losses due to $8.9 million of transaction expenses, $5.2 million of credit reserves, non-recurring $2.4 million of impairment charges that occurred in 2023, and $1.4 million of operating losses from FCG, a $1.5 million increase in share of equity in earnings and a $1.6 million favorable movement in foreign exchange gain compared with the prior period; partially offset by a $27.4 million gain on deconsolidation of FCG in 2023. Net income increased by $175.7 million to $161.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to ($14.3) million losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily driven by a $25.6 million increase in operating profit, due to $8.9 million of transaction expenses, $5.5 million of credit reserves, $2.4 million of impairment charges and $8.8 million of other operating loss of FBG and FCG; offset by a $27.4 million gain on deconsolidation of FCG in 2023, a $172.3 million gain from change in fair value of earnout liabilities in 2024, a $6.6 million increase in share of equity in earnings and a $1.7 million loss from change in fair value of warrant liability.

Adjusted EBITDA increased by $4.6 million from ($6.2) million loss to ($1.6) million loss for three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to an increase of $1.6 million in gain from equity method investments, an increase of $1.7 million in foreign exchange transaction gains, a decrease in project design and build expenses due to FCG's deconsolidation of $0.7 million, a decrease in research and development expenses due to FCG's deconsolidation of $0.3 million, and an increase in net sales of $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. These increases were partially offset by increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Adjusted EBITDA increased by $14.5 million from ($22.6) million loss to ($8.1) million loss for nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily driven by a decrease of $6.5 million selling, general, and administrative expenses due to reduction in third party accounting, audit, and legal fees relating to public company readiness, an increase of $6.6 million in the share of gain from equity method investments, a decrease in project design and build expenses due to FCG's deconsolidation of $10.2 million, a decrease in research and development expenses due to FCG's deconsolidation of $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. These increases were partially offset by a $10.7 million decrease in net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Liquidity

Liquidity describes the ability of a company to generate sufficient cash flows to meet the cash requirements of its business operations. Our primary short-term cash requirements are to fund working capital, short-term debt, acquisitions, contractual obligations and other commitments. Our medium-term to long-term cash requirements are to service and repay debt and to invest in facilities, equipment, technologies, location-based entertainment, media production, and research and development for growth initiatives. Our principal sources of liquidity are funds from borrowings, equity contributions from our existing investors, distributions from equity method investees and cash on hand.

As of September 30, 2024, our total indebtedness was approximately $35.9 million. We had approximately $0.8 million of unrestricted cash and $6.9 million available for borrowing under our lines of credit.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, Infinite Acquisitions loaned an additional $1.0 million to the Company pursuant to the revolving credit arrangement. The revolving credit arrangement is subject to an annual fixed interest rate of 2.75% and matures in September 2034. Further, in April 2024, Falcon's Opco entered into a one-year term loan agreement with Katmandu Ventures for $7.221 million and a one-year term loan agreement with Universal Kat for $1.25 million. The term loan with Katmandu Ventures and the term loan with Universal Kat both bear interest at a rate of 8.88% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears, and will mature on March 31, 2025. Approximately $5.4 million of the combined proceeds of the term loans from Katmandu Ventures and Universal Kat were used to repay a portion of the Infinite Acquisitions revolving credit arrangement.

Falcon's Opco entered into a loan amendment with Katmandu Ventures and Universal Kat, respectively, on June 14, 2024, to defer the first interest and principal payment from June 30, 2024 to the earlier of 1) September 30, 2024; 2) within five business days after the date upon which Falcon's Opco receives a distribution of funds from Producciones De Parques, S.L. as result of asset sale transaction; or 3) within five business days after the date upon which Falcon's Opco receives cash proceeds as the result of a debt or equity fundraising transaction with a third party resulting in net proceeds of $20 million or more.

Following the amendments to the loans above, Katmandu Ventures and Universal Kat assigned the loans (in part for Kat Ventures of $6.3 million and in full for Universal Kat) to FAST II Sponsor in exchange for the sale of Class A shares of the Company held by FAST II Sponsor. This transfer is solely between Universal Kat, Katmandu Ventures and FAST II Sponsor. Falcon's Opco provided written consent on the assignment. There were no additional changes to the loan agreement terms due to this reassignment. For more detail, see Note 6 - Long-term debt and borrowing arrangements in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The repayment schedules of these two loans were modified again on October 18, 2024, see Note 17 - Subsequent Events in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further details.

We anticipate managing our operations to ensure that our existing cash on hand and unused capacity on our existing lines of credit, along with distributions from equity method investees, additional debt and equity capital raises, and reviewing our portfolio of assets to provide additional liquidity over the next twelve months to meet our short-term needs. Currently, we do not have sufficient cash from operations and unused capacity to meet the next twelve months of our operations.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we have operational losses, accumulated deficits, and negative cash flows from operating activities that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As of September 30, 2024, we have $24.3 million of accrued expenses and other current liabilities, which include $18.2 million of transaction related professional fees, $2.2 million of excise tax payable on FAST II stock redemptions, $1.2 million of accrued payroll and related expenses, and approximately $2.7 million of other accrued expenses and current liabilities. The transaction expenses are actively being negotiated, and actual settlement may vary from the amounts recorded. Additionally, as of September 30, 2024, we have unfunded commitments to Karnival of $2.4 million (HKD 18.7 million), to be used for the purpose of constructing the Vquarium Entertainment Centers in Hong Kong which need to be paid in 2024. On July 27, 2023, FCG received a closing payment from QIC of $17.5 million (net of $0.5 million in reimbursements). On April 16, 2024, QIC released the remaining $12.0 million of the $30.0 million investment to Falcon's Creative Group, LLC, a deconsolidated subsidiary which is 75% owned by Falcon's Opco and 25% owned by QIC ("FCG LLC") upon the establishment of the employee retention and attraction incentive program. These funds are to be used exclusively by the FCG segment to fund its operations and growth and cannot be used to satisfy the commitments of other segments. Until we can generate sufficient revenue from our five reportable segments to cover operating expenses, working capital and capital expenditures, we expect funds raised from additional debt and/or capital to fund our cash needs.

Our capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the timing and extent of spending to support our research and development efforts, investments in technology, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, and market adoption of new and enhanced products and features. In addition, we expect to incur additional costs as a result of operating as a public company. We expect our capital expenditures and working capital requirements to increase materially in the near future. Our ability to generate cash in the future depends on our financial results which are subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory factors that may be outside of our control. Our future access to, and the availability of credit on acceptable terms and conditions, is impacted by many factors, including capital market liquidity and overall economic conditions. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we cannot be sure that any additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms if at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected. See the section of our Annual Report titled "Risk Factors - We will require additional capital, which additional financing may result in restrictions on our operations or substantial dilution to our stockholders, to support the growth of our business, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, if at all."

Contractual and Other Obligations

Tax Receivable Agreement

In connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, the Company entered into the Tax Receivable Agreement with Falcon's Opco, the TRA holder representative, certain members of Falcon's Opco (the "TRA Holders") and other persons from time-to-time party thereto. Pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, among other things, the Company is required to pay to each TRA Holder 85% of certain tax benefits, if any, that it realizes (or in certain cases is deemed to realize) as a result of the increases in tax basis resulting from any exchange of new Falcon's Opco units for Class A Common Stock or cash in the future and certain other tax benefits arising from payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. In certain cases, the Company's obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement may accelerate and become due and payable, based on certain assumptions, upon a change in control and certain other termination events, as defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement. This agreement was amended on October 24, 2024. See Note 17 - Subsequent Events in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Commitments

Partnership with Raging Power Limited

Pursuant to the terms of our joint venture agreement with Raging Power, Falcon's and Raging Power are each required to provide funding to Karnival in the form of non-interest-bearing advances, which will be repaid based on a percentage of gross revenues from the operation of the themed virtual ocean adventure attraction we are developing at the new 11 SKIES complex adjacent to the Hong Kong Airport. Accordingly, the joint venture agreement provides that we receive 16.6% to 20.6% of gross revenue of such location. As of September 30, 2024, we have unfunded commitments to Karnival of $2.4 million (HKD 18.7 million).

Transaction costs

Pursuant to the Business Combination during the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company received net cash proceeds from the Business Combination totaling $0.9 million, net of $1.3 million of FAST II transaction costs and $1.6 million of Falcon's Opco transaction costs paid at Closing. FAST II and Falcon's Opco transaction costs related to the Business Combination of $6.3 million and $15.7 million, respectively, are not yet settled as of September 30, 2024, and the Company is actively negotiating to settle them over the next 24 months. These transaction costs are recorded in accrued expenses and long-term payables. Negotiations regarding the terms of the costs yet to be settled are still ongoing and may change materially from these amounts accrued.

The Company is named from time to time as a party to lawsuits and other types of legal proceedings and claims in the normal course of business. As previously disclosed in the Company's Annual Report and its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 6, 2024, and further disclosed in Form 10-Q filed on May 16, 2024 and in Form 10-Q filed on August 13, 2024, a lawsuit was filed against the Company by Guggenheim Securities, LLC ("Guggenheim") on March 27, 2024 in which Guggenheim alleges that the Company owes certain fees and expenses of $11.1 million for services allegedly performed by Guggenheim in connection with the Business Combination consummated on October 6, 2023 (the "Guggenheim Complaint"). The Company has denied all liability in response to the Guggenheim Complaint. In addition, the Company has filed counterclaims against Guggenheim for fraudulent inducement, breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence, fraudulent misrepresentation and negligent misrepresentation. Guggenheim has moved to dismiss the counterclaims. The case is in its early stages, discovery has commenced, and the Court has set a certificate of readiness for trial/note of issue date for June 28, 2025. As part of the Company's accounting approach to transaction expenses related to the Business Combination, prior to the Company's receipt of the Guggenheim Complaint, the Company accrued $11.1 million as of December 31, 2023, with respect to the alleged amended engagement agreement with Guggenheim. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against the claims alleged in the Guggenheim Complaint and contest the amounts Guggenheim asserts are owed.

Related Party Loans

The Company has entered into various financing agreements with Infinite Acquisitions. As of September 30, 2024, we have aggregate outstanding balances of $22.8 million under these financing agreements.

On June 14, 2024, Falcon's Opco entered into a loan amendment with Katmandu Ventures to defer the first interest and principal payment from June 30, 2024 to the earlier of 1) September 30, 2024; 2) within five business days after the date upon which Falcon's Opco receives a distribution of funds from Producciones De Parques, S.L. as result of asset transaction; or 3) within five business days after the date upon which Falcon's Opco receives cash proceeds as the result of a debt or equity fundraising transaction with a third party resulting in net proceeds of $20 million or more.

Following the amendment above, Katmandu Ventures assigned $6.3 million of the loan to FAST II Sponsor, in exchange for the sale of Class A shares of Falcon's Opco held by FAST II Sponsor. This transfer is solely between Katmandu Ventures and FAST II Sponsor. Falcon's Opco provided written consent on the assignment. There were no additional changes to the loan agreement terms due to this reassignment. The repayment schedule of this loan was modified again on October 18, 2024. See Note 17 - Subsequent Events in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

For more information regarding our related party transactions, see Note 6 - Long-term debt and borrowing arrangements and Note 7 - Related party transactions in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Our cash flows used in operating activities are primarily driven by transaction, legal and professional fees associated with public company compliance costs and corporate overhead activities.

Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was ($8.8) million compared to ($16.4) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, representing a $7.6 million decrease in cash used in operating activities due to a reduction in legal and professional fees, and the deconsolidation of FCG.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Our primary investing activities consisted of the purchase of property, plant and equipment and changes in advances to unconsolidated joint ventures. Net cash used in investing activities was less than ($0.1) million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $0.8 million net cash provided by investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily related to outflows of $0.3 million for purchases of computer equipment and $1.5 million in advances made to unconsolidated joint ventures, partially offset by cash inflows relating to deconsolidation of FCG of $2.6 million.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities increased to $8.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $7.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, consisted primarily of $2.3 million in advances from affiliates, $1.2 million in proceeds from third party term loans and $0.6 million in proceeds from RSUs issued by affiliates; partially offset by ($1.2) million net repayments from third party loans and ($1.8) million decrease in equity contributions. See Note 6 - Long-term debt and borrowing arrangements in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

This item is not applicable as we are a smaller reporting company.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the identification of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

Material Weaknesses

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

In connection with the preparation and audit of the 2023 consolidated financial statements, we identified the following material weaknesses in the Company's internal control over financial reporting:

Risk Assessment - We did not design and implement an effective risk assessment based on the criteria established in the COSO framework. Specifically, these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses, either individually or in the aggregate, relating to: (i) identifying, assessing, and communicating appropriate objectives, (ii) identifying and analyzing risks to achieve these objectives, (iii) contemplating fraud risks, and (iv) identifying and assessing changes in the business that could impact our system of internal controls.

Control Activities - We did not design and implement effective control activities based on the criteria established in the COSO framework. We have identified deficiencies in the principles associated with the control activities component of the COSO framework. Specifically, these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses, either individually or in the aggregate, relating to: (i) selecting and developing control activities and information technology that contribute to the mitigation of risks and support achievement of objectives; and (ii) deploying control activities through policies that establish what is expected and procedures that put policies into action.

The following deficiencies, individually and in the aggregate, contributed to material weaknesses in control activities, including:

·	We did not have an adequate segregation of duties or appropriate level of review that is needed to comply with financial reporting requirements.

·	We did not design or maintain controls over period end close procedures.

·

We did not design or maintain effective controls over the period end financial reporting process and preparation of financial statements. Specifically, we did not design and implement a sufficient level of formal accounting policies and procedures that define how transactions across the business cycles should be initiated, recorded, processed and reported and appropriately authorized and approved.

·	We did not design or maintain controls or document segregation of duties over information technology systems used to create or maintain financial reporting records.

Monitoring - We did not design and implement effective monitoring activities based on the criteria established in the COSO framework. We have identified deficiencies in the principles associated with the monitoring component of the COSO framework. Specifically, these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses, either individually or in the aggregate, relating to: (i) selecting, developing, and performing ongoing evaluation to ascertain whether the components of internal controls are present and functioning; and (ii) evaluating and communicating internal control deficiencies in a timely manner to those parties responsible for taking corrective action.

Control Environment - We did not maintain an effective control environment based on the criteria established in the COSO framework. We have identified deficiencies in the principles associated with the control environment of the COSO framework. Specifically, these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses, either individually or in the aggregate, relating to: (i) appropriate organizational structure, reporting lines, and authority and responsibilities in pursuit of objectives; (ii) our commitment to attract, develop, train, and retain an appropriate complement of accounting employees; and (iii) establishing a control environment and holding individuals accountable for their internal control related responsibilities.

We did not design or maintain an effective control environment to enable the identification and mitigation of risks of accounting errors based on the contributing factors to material weaknesses in the control environment, including:

·

The Company did not create the proper environment for effective internal control over financial reporting and to ensure that: (i) there were adequate processes for oversight; (ii) there was accountability for the performance of internal control over financial reporting responsibilities; (iii) personnel with key positions had the appropriate training and capacity to carry out their responsibilities.

·

The Company did not maintain a sufficient complement of management, accounting, financial reporting personnel who had appropriate levels of knowledge, experience, and training in accounting and internal control matters commensurate with the nature, growth and complexity of our business. The lack of sufficient appropriately skilled and trained personnel contributed to our failure to: (i) adequately identify potential risks; (ii) include in the scope of our internal controls framework certain systems relevant to financial reporting and the preparation of our consolidated financial statements; and (iii) design and implement certain risk-mitigating internal controls.

Information and Communication - We did not generate or provide adequate quality supporting information and communication based on the criteria established in the COSO framework. We have identified deficiencies in the principles associated with the information and communication component of the COSO framework. Specifically, these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses, either individually or in the aggregate, relating to: (i) obtaining, generating, and using relevant quality information to support the function of internal control; and (ii) communicating accurate information internally and externally, including providing information pursuant to objectives, responsibilities, and functions of internal control.

Remediation Efforts

We are in the process of designing and implementing a plan to remediate the material weaknesses discussed above. Our remediation plans include strengthening our control environment with an immediate focus on hiring experienced personnel, designing and implementing risk assessment processes, implementing and enhancing our business processes and control activities, consistently generating and providing quality information and communication and re-designing and implementing monitoring controls.

Our detailed remediation plans, which are currently in process, include actions such as implementing systems and controls to enhance our review of significant accounting transactions and other new technical accounting and financial reporting issues and preparing and reviewing accounting memoranda addressing these issues, hiring experienced personnel, implementing controls to enable an effective and timely review period end close procedures, and implementing controls to enable an accurate and timely review of accounting records that support our accounting processes and maintain documents for internal accounting reviews.

We have also engaged a third-party consulting firm to assist us with our formal internal control plan and to provide accounting services related to complex accounting transactions. In addition, as we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, management may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify our remediation plan.

In light of the material weaknesses discussed above, we performed additional procedures to ensure that our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Following such additional procedures, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in this Quarterly Report, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except as otherwise described herein, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The Company is named from time to time as a party to lawsuits and other types of legal proceedings and claims in the normal course of business. As previously disclosed in the Company's Annual Report and its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 6, 2024, and further disclosed in Form 10-Q filed on May 16, 2024 and in Form 10-Q filed on August 13, 2024, a lawsuit was filed against the Company by Guggenheim Securities, LLC ("Guggenheim") on March 27, 2024 in which Guggenheim alleges that the Company owes certain fees and expenses of $11.1 million for services allegedly performed by Guggenheim in connection with the Business Combination consummated on October 6, 2023 (the "Guggenheim Complaint"). The Company has denied all liability in response to the Guggenheim Complaint. In addition, the Company has filed counterclaims against Guggenheim for fraudulent inducement, breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence, fraudulent misrepresentation and negligent misrepresentation. Guggenheim has moved to dismiss the counterclaims. The case is in its early stages, discovery has commenced, and the Court has set a certificate of readiness for trial/note of issue date for June 28, 2025. As part of the Company's accounting approach to transaction expenses related to the Business Combination, prior to the Company's receipt of the Guggenheim Complaint, the Company accrued $11.1 million as of December 31, 2023 with respect to the alleged amended engagement agreement with Guggenheim. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against the claims alleged in the Guggenheim Complaint and contest the amounts Guggenheim asserts are owed.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Quarterly Report are any of the risks described in our Annual Report. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the Annual Report. We may disclose changes to such risk factors or disclose additional risk factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.
