5. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1.       The SEALSQ Group

SEALSQ Corp, together with its consolidated subsidiaries (“SEALSQ” or the “Group” or the “SEALSQ Group”), has its headquarters in Tortola, BVI. SEALSQ Corp, the parent of the SEALSQ Group, was incorporated in April 2022 and is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market exchange with the valor symbol “LAES” since May 23, 2023.

On January 1, 2023, SEALSQ Corp acquired SEALSQ France (formerly WISeKey Semiconductors SAS), a private joint stock company (French Simplified Joint Stock Company), and its subsidiaries. Prior to that acquisition, SEALSQ did not have any operations. As further described in the notes below, the acquisition qualified as a reverse recapitalization.

SEALSQ designs, develops and markets secure semiconductors worldwide as a fabless manufacturer. It provides added security and authentication layers on its semiconductors which can be tailored to customers’ needs. As an advanced chip designer, the Group holds the intellectual property (IP) for the semiconductors it sells.

SEALSQ is also accredited as a Product Attestation Authority (PAA) and, as such, can issue MATTER Device Attestation Certificates (DAC).

The Group anticipates being able to generate profits in the near future thanks to the increased focus on the security and authentication of IT components and networks.

Note 2.       Future operations and going concern

The Group recorded a loss from operations in this reporting period and the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Group will continue as a going concern.

The Group incurred a net operating loss of USD 8.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and had positive working capital of USD 18.8 million as at June 30, 2024, calculated as the difference between current assets and current liabilities. Based on the Group’s cash projections up to September 30, 2025, SEALSQ has sufficient liquidity to fund operations.

We note that, historically, the Group has been dependent on financing to augment the operating cash flow to cover its cash requirements.

Based on the foregoing, Management believe it is correct to present these figures on a going concern basis.

Note 3.       Basis of presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) as set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). All amounts are in United States dollars (“USD”) unless otherwise stated.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Group’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, as filed in the 20-F on March 21, 2024.

The Group’s interim period results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. The significant accounting policies applied in the annual consolidated financial statements of the Group as of December 31, 2023, contained in the Group’s Annual Report have been applied consistently in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 4.       Summary of significant accounting policies

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Adoption of new FASB Accounting Standard in the current year – Prior-Year Financial Statements not restated:

As of January 1, 2024, the Group adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-01 Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements which requires all companies to amortize leasehold improvements associated with common control leases over the asset’s useful life to the common control group regardless of the lease term. ASU 2023-01 requires leasehold improvements associated with leases between entities under common control to be amortized over the useful life of the improvements until the lessee ceases to control the use of the underlying asset through a lease, at which time the remaining value of the leasehold improvement would be accounted for as a transfer between entities under common control.

There was no impact on the Group's results upon adoption of the standard.

F-7 

SEALSQ Corp Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as at June 30, 2024

New FASB Accounting Standard to be adopted in the future:

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which enhances current segment disclosures and requires additional disclosures of significant segment expenses.

Summary: The amendments improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. In addition, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contain other disclosure requirements.

Effective Date: ASU 2023-07 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted.

The Group expects to adopt all the aforementioned guidance when effective. Management is assessing the impact of the aforementioned guidance on its consolidated financial statements but does not expect it to have a material impact.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which establishes new income tax disclosure requirements in addition to modifying and eliminating certain existing requirements.

Summary: The intent of this standard is to enhance the decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The standard applies to all entities subject to ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. In addition, entities will be required to disclose the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes. They will also disclose the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds) disaggregated by individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid is equal to or greater than five percent of total income taxes paid. The standard also outlines additional disclosure requirements for all entities and specific updates for public business entities.

Effective Date: ASU 2023-09 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted.

The Group expects to adopt all the aforementioned guidance when effective. Management is assessing the impact of the aforementioned guidance on its consolidated financial statements but does not expect it to have a material impact.

Note 5.       Concentration of credit risks

Financial instruments that are potentially subject to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. Our cash is held with large financial institutions. Management believes that the financial institutions that hold our investments are financially sound and accordingly, are subject to minimal credit risk. Deposits held with banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.

The Group sells to large, international customers and, as a result, may maintain individually significant trade accounts receivable balances with such customers during the year. We generally do not require collateral on trade accounts receivable. Summarized below are the clients whose revenue were 10% or higher than the respective total consolidated net sales for the 6 months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023, and the clients whose trade accounts receivable balances were 10% or higher than the respective total consolidated trade accounts receivable balance as at June 30, 2024 and, or December 31, 2023. In addition, we note that some of our clients are contract manufacturers for the same companies; should these companies reduce their operations or change contract manufacturers, this would cause a decrease in our customer orders which would adversely affect our operating results.

Note 6.       Fair value measurements

ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy for measuring financial instruments, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:

·  Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

·  Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

·  Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

	As at June 30, 2024 (unaudited)		As at December 31, 2023		Fair value level
USD'000	Carrying amount	Fair value	Carrying amount	Fair value		Note ref.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Accounts receivable	1,565	1,565	5,053	5,053	3	8
Accounts payable	6,904	6,904	6,963	6,963	3	16
Indebtedness to related parties, current	-	-	1,278	1,278	3	19
Bonds, mortgages and other long-term debt	1,734	1,734	1,654	1,654	3	18
Convertible note payable, noncurrent	9,313	10,413	1,519	1,846	3	18
Indebtedness to related parties, noncurrent	7,478	7,478	9,695	9,695	3	19

In addition to the methods and assumptions we use to record the fair value of financial instruments as discussed in the Fair Value Measurements section above, we used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of our financial instruments:

- Accounts receivable – carrying amount approximated fair value due to their short-term nature.

- Accounts payable – carrying amount approximated fair value due to their short-term nature.

- Indebtedness to related parties, current – carrying amount approximated fair value.

- Bonds, mortgages and other long-term debt - carrying amount approximated fair value.

- Convertible note payable, noncurrent – fair value is calculated based on the present value of the future cash flows as of the reporting date.

- Indebtedness to related parties, noncurrent - carrying amount approximated fair value.

Note 7.       Cash and cash equivalents

Cash consists of deposits held at major banks.

Note 8.       Accounts receivable

The breakdown of the accounts receivable balance is detailed below:

	As at June 30,	As at December 31,

SEALSQ France SAS (formerly WISeKey Semiconductors SAS) is eligible for research tax credits provided by the French government. As at June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the receivable balances in respect of these research tax credits owed to the Group were respectively USD 1,825,698 and USD 1,718,248. The credit is deductible from the entity’s income tax charge for the year or payable in cash the following year, whichever event occurs first. The balance as at June 30, 2024 is the aggregate of USD 749,860 (at closing rate) tax credit earned in relation to the six month period ended June 30, 2024 and USD 1,075,838 (at closing rate) in relation to the year 2023.

Production Capacity Investment Loan Agreement

In November 2022, SEALSQ entered into a loan agreement with a third-party client to borrow funds for the purpose of increasing their production capacity.  Under the terms of the Agreement, the client has lent to SEALSQ a total of USD 2 million. The loan will be reimbursed by way of a volume rebate against future sales volumes of certain products from the SEALSQ Group to the client during the period from July 1, 2023, through to December 31, 2025.  The volume rebate is based upon quarterly sales volumes in excess of a base limit on a yearly projected basis. Any amount still outstanding as at December 31, 2025 shall fall due for repayment on that date.  The loan does not bear any interest and there were no fees or costs attributed to the loan.

At inception in November 2022, a debt discount totaling USD 511,128 was booked to additional paid-in capital. 

As at June 30, 2024, SEALSQ has not repaid any amount. The loan balance remains USD 2 million with an unamortized debt discount balance of USD 266,044, thus leaving a carrying value of USD 1,733,956.

Share Purchase Agreement with L1 Capital Global Opportunities Master Fund

The Notes shall have a 24-month maturity and bear interest at a rate of 4% per annum, subject to adjustment. The Notes will be convertible into Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ, partially or in full, at an initial conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) a fixed conversion price of USD 30 per Ordinary Share, which, on the six-month anniversary of the tranche closing date, may reset at 130% of the daily volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Ordinary Shares for the trading day immediately prior to the reset date and (ii) 92% of the lowest daily VWAP of the Ordinary Shares during the ten trading days immediately preceding the conversion notice of the Note, with a floor price of USD 2.50. The covenants include the requirement for the Group to maintain a minimum cash balance of USD 4 million and to ensure that indebtedness of the Group does not exceed 15% of the average market capitalization.

SEALSQ Corp Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as at June 30, 2024

Due to L1’s option to convert the loan in part or in full at any time before maturity, the L1 SPA was assessed as a share-settled debt instrument with an embedded put option. In line with ASC 480-10-55-43 and ASC 480-10-55-44, because the value that L1 will predominantly receive at settlement does not vary with the value of the shares, the settlement provision is not considered a conversion option. We assessed the put option under ASC 815 and concluded that it is clearly and closely related to its debt host and therefore did not require bifurcation. Per ASC 480-10-25, the L1 SPA was accounted for as a liability measured at fair value using the discounted cash flow method at inception.

Additionally, per the terms of the L1 SPA, upon each tranche closing under the L1 SPA, SEALSQ will grant L1 the option to acquire Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ at an initial exercise price of USD 30, which may reset at 120% of the closing VWAP on the six-month anniversary of the tranche closing date. The number of warrants granted at each tranche subscription is calculated as 30% of the principal amount of each tranche divided by the VWAP of the Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ on the trading day immediately preceding the tranche closing date. Each warrant agreement has a 5-year exercise period starting on the relevant tranche closing date. In line with ASC 470-20-25-2, for each tranche closing, the proceeds from the convertible notes with a detachable warrant were allocated to the two elements based on the relative fair values of the debt instrument without the warrant and of the warrant at time of issuance. When assessed as an equity instrument, the warrant agreement is fair valued at grant using the Black-Scholes model and the market price of the Ordinary Shares on the tranche closing date. The fair value of the debt is calculated using the discounted cash flow method.

The first tranche of USD 5 million was funded on July 12, 2023, by L1. SEALSQ issued to L1 (i) a Senior Original Issue 4% Discount Convertible Promissory Note of USD 5 million (the “First L1 Note”), convertible into SEALSQ’s Ordinary Shares, and (ii) 122,908 warrants on the Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ with a 5-year maturity (the “First L1 Warrant”). SEALSQ also created a capital reserve of 8,000,000 Ordinary Shares from its duly authorized Ordinary Shares for issuance under the First L1 Note and the First L1 Warrant. Debt issue costs made up of legal expenses totaling USD 114,832 and a commission of USD 250,000 to the placement agent were due upon issuance of the First L1 Note, and a fee of USD 200,000 representing 4% of the principal value of the First L1 Note was paid to L1 at closing.

The First L1 Warrant was assessed as an equity instrument and was fair valued at grant at an amount of USD 632,976 using the Black-Scholes model and the market price of the Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ on the date of grant of USD 11.42. The fair value of the debt was calculated using the discounted cash flow method as USD 4,987,363. Applying the relative fair value method per ASC 470-20-25-2, the recognition of the warrant agreement created a debt discount on the debt host in the amount of USD 563,112, with the credit entry recorded in additional paid-in capital (“APIC”), and the debt issue costs created a debt discount on the debt host in the amount of USD 323,744 and a debit to APIC of USD 41,088. Including the fee paid to L1, a total debt discount of USD 1,086,856 was recorded against the First L1 Note’s principal amount.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, L1 converted a total of USD 4 million of the First L1 Note, resulting in the delivery of a total of 3,940,630 Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ. A debt discount charge of USD 210,290 was amortized to the income statement and unamortized debt discounts totaling USD 705,572 were booked to APIC on conversions in line with ASC 470-02-40-4.

On January 9, 2024, SEALSQ and L1 entered into an Amendment to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “First L1 Amendment”), to amend some of the original terms and conditions of the L1 SPA. As per the First L1 Amendment, L1 may enter into a private placement of up to a maximum amount of USD 10 million, divided into two equal tranches, in the form of Senior Unsecured Original Issue 4% Discount Convertible Promissory Notes. The Notes shall have a 24-month maturity and bear interest at a rate of 4% per annum, subject to adjustment. The Notes will be convertible into Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ, partially or in full, at an initial conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) a fixed conversion price of USD 4 per Ordinary Share, which, on the six-month anniversary of the tranche closing date, may reset at 130% of the daily VWAP of the Ordinary Shares for the trading day immediately prior to the reset date and (ii) 92% of the lowest daily volume VWAP of the Ordinary Shares during the ten trading days immediately preceding the conversion notice of the Note, with a floor price of USD 0.55.

Additionally, per the terms of the L1 Amendment, upon each tranche closing under the L1 SPA, SEALSQ will grant L1 the option to acquire Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ at an initial exercise price of USD 4, with no option to reset. The number of warrants granted at each tranche subscription is calculated as 30% of the principal amount of each tranche divided by the VWAP of the Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ on the trading day immediately preceding the tranche closing date.

The second tranche of USD 5 million was funded on January 11, 2024, by L1. SEALSQ issued to L1 (i) a Senior Original Issue 4% Discount Convertible Promissory Note of USD 5 million (the “Second L1 Note”), convertible into SEALSQ’s Ordinary Shares, and (ii) 1,144,339 warrants on the Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ with a 5-year maturity (the “Second L1 Warrant”). SEALSQ also created a capital reserve of 45,000,000 Ordinary Shares from its duly authorized Ordinary Shares for issuance under the Second L1 Note and the Second L1 Warrant. Debt issue costs made up of legal expenses totaling USD 70,279 and a commission of USD 250,000 to the placement agent were due upon issuance of the Second L1 Note, and a fee of USD 200,000 representing 4% of the principal value of the Second L1 Note was paid to L1 at closing.

The Second L1 Warrant was assessed as an equity instrument and was fair valued at grant at an amount of USD 709,490 using the Black-Scholes model and the market price of the Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ on the date of grant of USD 1.60. The fair value of the debt was calculated using the discounted cash flow method as USD 4,594,061. Applying the relative fair value method per ASC 470-20-25-2, the recognition of the warrant agreement created a debt discount on the debt host in the amount of USD 668,882, with the credit entry recorded in APIC, and the debt issue costs created a debt discount on the debt host in the amount of USD 277,433 and a debit to APIC of USD 42,846. Including the fee paid to L1, a total debt discount of USD 1,146,315 was recorded against the Second L1 Note’s principal amount.

On March 1 ,2024, SEALSQ and L1 entered into the Second Amendment to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Second L1 Amendment”), to amend some of the terms and conditions of the L1 SPA. As per the Second L1 Amendment, L1 may enter into a private placement of up to a maximum amount of USD 10 million, divided into two equal tranches, in the form of Senior Unsecured Original Issue 2.5% Discount Convertible Promissory Notes. The Notes shall have a 24-month maturity and bear interest at a rate of 4% per annum, subject to adjustment. The Notes will be convertible into Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ, partially or in full, at an initial conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) a fixed conversion price of USD 5.5 per Ordinary Share, which, on the six-month anniversary of the tranche closing date, may reset at 130% of the daily VWAP of the Ordinary Shares for the trading day immediately prior to the reset date and (ii) 93% of the lowest daily volume VWAP of the Ordinary Shares during the ten trading days immediately preceding the conversion notice of the Note, with a floor price of USD 0.55.

Additionally, per the terms of the L1 Second Amendment, upon each tranche closing under the L1 SPA, SEALSQ will grant L1 the option to acquire Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ at an initial exercise price of USD 5.5, with no option to reset. The number of warrants granted at each tranche subscription is calculated as 30% of the principal amount of each tranche divided by the VWAP of the Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ on the trading day immediately preceding the tranche closing date.

The third tranche of USD 5 million was funded on March 1, 2024, by L1. SEALSQ issued to L1 (i) a Senior Original Issue 2.5% Discount Convertible Promissory Note of USD 5 million (the “Third L1 Note”), convertible into SEALSQ’s Ordinary Shares, and (ii) 768,679 warrants on the Ordinary Shares of SEALSQ with a 5-year maturity (the “Third L1 Warrant”).

The covenants include the requirement for the Group to maintain a minimum cash balance of USD 4 million and to ensure that indebtedness of the Group does not exceed 15% of the average market capitalization.

Due to Anson’s option to convert the loan in part or in full at any time before maturity, the Anson SPA was assessed as a share-settled debt instrument with an embedded put option. In line with ASC 480-10-55-43 and ASC 480-10-55-44, because the value that Anson will predominantly receive at settlement does not vary with the value of the shares, the settlement provision is not considered a conversion option.

Per the terms of the Debt Remission, WISeKey will have the right to reinstate the debt and ask for repayment in fiscal years when SEALSQ France (formerly WISeKey Semiconductors SAS) achieves a positive income before income tax expense, in an amount calculated based on the income before income tax expense and as agreed by the parties. As such, because of the repayment clause, the loan amount covered by the Debt Remission continues to be shown as noncurrent liabilities included in the line Indebtedness to related parties, noncurrent. The outstanding amount under the Debt Remission is revalued at each period end at the applicable closing rate. On December 20, 2023, the Group and WISeKey entered into an agreement to write off EUR 2 million (USD 2,191,282 at historical rate) of the outstanding Debt Remission amount. Therefore, as at June 30, 2024, an amount of EUR 3 million (USD 3,211,668) remained outstanding under the Debt Remission.

On June 28, 2021, the Group entered into a Debt Transfer Agreement with its parent, WISeKey, and an affiliate of WISeKey, WISeKey SA, pursuant to which WISeKey extended a loan of USD 1,463,664 to the Group to repay an overdue creditor balance in that same amount owed to WISeKey SA. The loan bore interest at the rate of 3% per annum and was repayable by December 31, 2022.

On December 31, 2021, the Group entered into a Debt Transfer Agreement with WISeKey pursuant to which WISeKey extended a loan of USD 1,910,754 to the Group with an interest rate of 3% per annum, repayable on December 31, 2023.

On June 30, 2022, the Group entered into a Debt Transfer Agreement with WISeKey pursuant to which WISeKey extended a loan of USD 444,542 to the Group with an interest rate of 3% per annum, repayable on December 31, 2024.

On August 31, 2022, the Group entered into a Debt Transfer Agreement with WISeKey and WISeKey SA pursuant to which WISeKey extended a loan of USD 381,879 to the Group with an interest rate of 3% per annum, repayable on December 31, 2024.

On December 15, 2022, and in view of the negative equity position of the Group, WISeKey as then sole shareholder of the SEALSQ Group resolved to recapitalize the Group by forfeiting EUR 7 million (USD 7,348,397 at historical rate) out of the loans outstanding in exchange for the issuance of 175,000 new shares in SEALSQ France, par value EUR 1. Under French law, such a recapitalization is only possible if the loans to be forfeited are immediately repayable. Therefore, respectively on November 1, 2022 and November 3, 2022, the Group entered into a First Amendment to the Debt Transfer Agreements and into the Fourth Amendment to the Revolving Credit Agreement pursuant to which the loans owed under the Debt Transfer Agreements dated June 28, 2021, December 31, 2021, June 30, 2022 and August 31, 2022 as well as all amounts due under the Revolving Credit became due and payable on November 30, 2022.

Because of the requirement under French law, we analyzed the amendment of the maturity of the loans and Revolving Credit as being part of the substance of the recapitalization transaction. We assessed the recapitalization as a capital transaction between related parties in line with ASC 470-50 and, therefore, in the year ended December 31, 2022, recorded a credit entry of USD 183,710 in share capital corresponding to the new issue of 175,000 shares and a credit of USD 7,164,687 to additional paid-in capital, with a total debit entry of USD 7,348,397 to Indebtedness to related parties, noncurrent.

SEALSQ Corp Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as at June 30, 2024

On December 31, 2022, the Group entered into a Debt Transfer Agreement with WISeKey pursuant to which WISeKey extended a loan of USD 283,754 to the Group with an interest rate of 3% per annum, repayable on December 31, 2024.

As at December 31, 2022, the Group owed WISeKey USD 1,198,746 in loans under the various agreements and the unamortized debt discount balance was USD 35,340, hence a carrying value of USD 1,163,406 as at December 31, 2022.

On January 1, 2023, the SEALSQ Group entered into a loan agreement with WISeKey (the “New Loan”) which replaced all outstanding loan agreements. Per the terms of the New Loan, WISeKey extended a loan to the SEALSQ Group of up to USD 5 million, with an interest rate of 2.5% per annum, repayable on or around December 31, 2024. A first tranche loan of USD 1,407,497 was drawn on January 1, 2023, which was made up of the balance of USD 1,198,746 outstanding from previous loan agreements as at December 31, 2022 and an additional loan amount of USD 208,751. We determined the New Loan to be a troubled debt restructuring under ASC 470-60, where the future undiscounted cash flows of the New Loan were more than the net carrying value of USD 1,163,406 of the original debt with WISeKey. Therefore, in line with ASC 470-60, we recorded the New Loan with a new effective interest rate of 12.3% established based on the carrying value of the original debt and the revised cash flows. A total interest rate accrual of USD 244,091 was recorded as a debit to Indebtedness to related parties, current at inception and the unamortized debt discount balance on the previously outstanding loans of USD 35,340 was extinguished, hence a net credit to APIC of USD 208,751. In line with ASC 470-60, no gain was recorded in the income statement.

All entities in the SEALSQ Group are subject to management fees from WISeKey and WISeKey’s affiliates. Where the payment terms have been defined, the classification between current and noncurrent follows the payment terms, however, where there is no set payment date for these fees, they have been classified as noncurrent.

As at December 31, 2023, the Group owed WISeKey and WISeKey’s affiliates noncurrent debts in an aggregate amount of USD 9,695,576, made up of loans and unpaid management fees, and a current debt in an amount of USD 1,407,497. The unamortized effective interest balance of the current debt was USD 129,691, hence a carrying value of the current debt of USD 1,277,806 as at December 31, 2023. In the year 2023, an aggregate effective interest expense of USD 114,400 was recorded in the income statement.

As at December 31, 2023, the Group also held an accounts payable balance of USD 1,377,871 with WISeKey in relation to interest on outstanding loans and the recharge of management services, classified as accounts payable to shareholders.

In 2024, the group repaid the current debt owed to WISeKey in full for a total amount of USD 1,449,911, made up of a loan of USD 1,407,497, and related interests. The unamortized effective interest balance of the current debt of USD 129,691 was recognized in the income statement as interest and amortization of debt discount in an amount of USD 29,406 and as loss on debt extinguishment in an amount of USD 100,285.

The group also repaid some of the noncurrent debts owed to WISeKey.

As at June 30, 2024, the Group owed WISeKey and WISeKey’s affiliates noncurrent debts in an aggregate amount of USD 7,477,594, made up of loans and unpaid management fees. In the six months ended June 30, 2024, an aggregate effective interest expense of USD 44,943 was recorded in the income statement.

As at June 30, 2024, the Group also held an accounts payable balance of USD 1,981,933 with WISeKey in relation to interest on outstanding loans and the recharge of management services, classified as accounts payable to shareholders.

Note 20.       Employee benefit plans

Defined benefit post-retirement plan

As at June 30, 2024, the Group maintained one defined benefit post retirement plan for the employees of SEALSQ France SAS (formerly WISeKey Semiconductors SAS).

The plan is and was considered a defined benefit plan and accounted for in accordance with ASC 715 Compensation – Retirement Benefits. This model allocates pension costs over the service period of employees in the plan. The underlying principle is that employees render services ratably over this period, and therefore, the income statement effects of pensions should follow a similar pattern. ASC 715 requires recognition of the funded status or difference between the fair value of plan assets and the projected benefit obligations of the pension plan on the balance sheet, with a corresponding adjustment recorded in the net loss. If the projected benefit obligation exceeds the fair value of the plan assets, then that difference or unfunded status represents the pension liability.

The Group records net service cost as an operating expense and other components of defined benefit plans as a non-operating expense in the statement of comprehensive loss.

The liabilities and annual income or expense of the pension plan are determined using methodologies that involve several actuarial assumptions, the most significant of which are the discount rate and the long-term rate of asset return (based on the market-related value of assets). The fair value of plan assets is determined based on prevailing market prices.

The defined benefit pension plan maintained by SEALSQ France SAS, and its obligations to employees in terms of retirement benefits, is limited to a lump sum payment based on remuneration and length of service, determined for each employee. The plan is not funded, which means that there are no plan assets.

The pension liability calculated as at June 30, 2024 is based on annual personnel costs and assumptions as of December 31, 2023.

Guarantees

Our software and hardware product sales agreements generally include certain provisions for indemnifying customers against liabilities if our products infringe a third party’s intellectual property rights. Certain of our product sales agreements also include provisions indemnifying customers against liabilities in the event we breach confidentiality or service level requirements. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to our lack of history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. To date, we have not incurred any costs as a result of such indemnifications and have not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 23.       Revenue

Nature of goods and services

The Group generates revenues from the sale of semiconductors secure chips and from Digital Certificates, Software as a Service, Software license and Post-Contract Customer Support (PCS) for cybersecurity applications. Products and services are sold principally separately but may also be sold in bundled packages.

For bundled packages, the Group accounts for individual products and services separately if they are distinct – i.e. if a product or service is separately identified from other items in the bundled package and if a customer can benefit from it. The consideration is allocated between separate products and services in a bundle based on their stand-alone selling prices. The stand-alone selling prices are determined based on the list prices when available or estimated based on the Adjusted Market Assessment approach (e.g. licenses), or the Expected Cost-Plus Margin approach (e.g., PCS).

The following is a description of the principal activities from which the Group generates its revenue across all reportable segments.

Product and services	Nature, timing of satisfaction of performance obligations and significant payment terms
Semiconductors secure chips	Although they may be sold in connection with other services of the Group, they always represent distinct performance obligations. The Group recognizes revenue when a customer takes possession of the chips, which usually occurs when the goods are delivered. Customers typically pay once goods are delivered.
SaaS	The Group’s SaaS arrangements cover the provision of cloud-based certificates for authentication purposes such as Device Attestation Certificates (DACs) for MATTER Protocol, IoT Device to Cloud Authentication, or Device-to-Device Authentication. The Group recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis over the service period which is usually yearly renewable. Where lifelong certificates are issued, the Group recognizes revenue when the certificate is delivered and usable by the customer. Customers usually pay ahead of the service period; the paid amounts which have not yet been recognized as revenue are shown as deferred revenue on the balance sheet.
Software and INeS Certificate Management Platform	The Group provides software for certificates life-cycle management and signing and authentication solutions through its INeS Certificate Management Platform. The Group recognizes revenue when the software has been delivered or the platform has been set up, and PCS revenue over the service period which is usually one-year renewable. Customers pay upon delivery of the software or over the PCS.
Implementation, integration and other services	The Group provides services to implement and integrate multi-element cybersecurity solutions. Most of the time the solution elements are off-the-shelve non-customized components which represent distinct performance obligations. Implementation and integration services are payable when rendered, while other revenue elements are payable and recognized as per their specific description in this section.

Disaggregation of revenue

The following table shows the Group’s revenues disaggregated by product or service type:

Disaggregation of revenue	Revenue recognized	At one point in time		Total

There was no grant of options on F Shares under the FSOP in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Stock option charge to the income statement

The Group calculates the fair value of options granted by applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Expected volatility is based on the other companies (in the same industry and of a similar size) share price volatility.

In the six months ended June 30, 2024, a total charge of USD 42,095 for options granted to Board members was recognized in the consolidated income statement calculated by applying the Black-Scholes model at grant, in relation to options.

Assumption	June 30, 2024	June 30, 2023
Dividend yield	None	None
Risk-free interest rate used (average)	1.00%	1.00%
Expected market price volatility	65.31%	73.19%

The Group assesses the recoverability of its deferred tax assets and, to the extent recoverability does not satisfy the “more likely than not” recognition criterion under ASC 740, records a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. The Group considered its recent operating results and anticipated future taxable income in assessing the need for its valuation allowance.

F-24 

SEALSQ Corp Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as at June 30, 2024

In the years up until and including 2021, the Group recorded a valuation allowance for the full amount of its deferred tax assets. However, in view of the Group’s income before income tax in the year ended December 31, 2022, and of the anticipated future taxable income per management’s forecast, the Group assessed that the recoverability of its deferred tax assets partially satisfied the “more likely than not” recognition criterion under ASC 740 as at December 31, 2022 and, therefore, partially reversed the valuation allowance previously recorded.

As at June 30, 2024, the Group assessed that the recoverability of its deferred tax assets still partially satisfied the “more likely than not” recognition criteria under ASC 740, but that it would spread over more years than initially calculated. The Group considered its recent operating results and anticipated future taxable income in assessing the need for its valuation allowance and assessed that the valuation allowance should be increased to reflect the expected delay in the recoverability of its deferred tax assets, as reflected in the tables below.

The Group’s deferred tax assets and liabilities consist of the following:

Note 28.       Segment reporting

The Group has one operating segment that meets the criteria set in ASC 280-10-50: Secure Microcontrollers. The Group’s chief operating decision maker, who is its Chief Executive Officer, reviews financial performance of this operating segment for purposes of allocating resources and assessing budgets and performance.

The remaining non-reportable operating segments and other business activities that are not identified as operating segments are combined and disclosed in an “all other” standalone category.

The Secure Microcontrollers segment encompasses the design, manufacturing, sales and distribution of high-end, Common Criteria EAL5+ & FIPS 140-3-certified secure microprocessors.

SEALSQ Corp Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as at June 30, 2024

Note 30.       Legal proceedings

We are currently not party to any legal proceedings and claims that are not provided for in our financial statements.

Starting in 2023 until April 2024, the French customs authorities carried out an audit of our exportation documents and found some administrative errors. In June 2024, we submitted observations to the French customs authorities contesting the legal qualification of the infringement notified. As at June 30, 2024, the French customs authorities have not yet disclosed their conclusion or a course of action in relation to their findings. We note that the administrative errors identified in our exportation documents had no financial impact on our current or historical financial statements and did not result in any error or misstatement in our historical financial statements. However, management believes that there is a reasonable possibility that a penalty may be incurred in relation to this matter, but a reasonable estimate of such loss cannot be made as at June 30, 2024.

Note 33.       Impacts of ongoing conflicts

Impacts of the war in Ukraine

Following the outbreak of the war in Ukraine in late February 2022, several countries imposed sanctions on Russia, Belarus and certain regions in Ukraine. There has been an abrupt change in the geopolitical situation, with significant uncertainty about the duration of the conflict, changing scope of sanctions and retaliation actions including new laws.

The SEALSQ Group does not have any operation or customer in Russia, Belarus or Ukraine, and, as such, does not foresee any direct impact of the war on its operations. However, the war has also contributed to an increase in volatility in currency markets, energy prices, raw material and other input costs, which may impact the Group’s supply chain in the future.

As at June 30, 2024, SEALSQ has assessed the consequences of the war for its financial disclosures and considered the impacts on key judgments and significant estimates, and has concluded that no changes were required. SEALSQ will continue to monitor these areas of increased risk for material changes.

Impacts of the Israel–Hamas conflict

Israel’s declaration of war on Hamas in October 2023 has degraded the geopolitical environment in the region and created uncertainty.

The SEALSQ Group does not have any operation or customer in that region, and, as such, does not foresee any direct impact of the war on its operations. However, depending on its duration and intensity, the war may adversely affect the global economy, financial markets and the Group’s supply chain in the future.

As at June 30, 2024, SEALSQ has assessed the consequences of the war for its financial disclosures and considered the impacts on key judgments and significant estimates, and has concluded that no changes were required. SEALSQ will continue to monitor these areas of increased risk for material changes.
