Non-cash revaluation of Lyken.AI drives $3.6 million in quarterly comprehensive income as total assets increase 82.7% to $9.4 million

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / August 31, 2026 / Alset AI Ventures Inc. (TSXV:GPUS)(OTCQB:GPUSF)(FSE:1R61, WKN:A40M0J) ("Alset AI", "Alset" or the "Company"), an investment issuer focused on the technology industry, including artificial intelligence ("AI"), is pleased to report its unaudited financial results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 ("Fiscal Q3 2026"). All amounts in this release are expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated. The condensed interim financial statements were prepared by management in accordance with IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting and have not been reviewed by the Company's auditor.

Alset reported income and comprehensive income of $3,606,599 for Fiscal Q3 2026, compared with a loss and comprehensive loss of $4,288,289 in the same quarter of the prior year. The result was driven by a $4,109,577 net investment gain, consisting primarily of unrealized fair value increases in the Company's investment portfolio, together with a 59.6% year-over-year reduction in quarterly general expenses.

"Fiscal Q3 reflects the value creation achieved within our investment portfolio, particularly at Lyken.AI," said Adam Ingrao, Chief Executive Officer of Alset AI. "The increase in Lyken.AI's carrying value was derived from pricing established through a third-party transaction with FingerMotion that subsequently closed after quarter-end. Together with lower quarterly general expenses, the portfolio revaluation contributed to $3.6 million of comprehensive income and a 68% increase in shareholders' equity since fiscal year-end. We remain focused on actively managing our portfolio, supporting the growth of our investee companies and pursuing opportunities capable of creating long-term value for Alset shareholders."

Fiscal Q3 2026 Financial Highlights

  • Income and comprehensive income was $3.61 million, or $0.20 per basic share and $0.19 per diluted share, compared with a loss and comprehensive loss of $4.29 million, or $0.29 per basic and diluted share, in Fiscal Q3 2025.

  • Net investment gain was $4.11 million, compared with a net investment loss of $2.91 million in the comparative quarter. This gain is unrealized and non-cash, and generated no cash proceeds to the Company. The net change in unrealized gains on investments was $4.14 million, driven almost entirely by a $4.14 million unrealized, non-cash increase in the carrying value of the Company's investment in Lyken.AI, based on pricing from a third-party transaction that closed after quarter-end. The carrying value is based on unaudited management estimates and has not been reviewed or confirmed by the Company's auditors. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to realize on its investment at the carrying value, or at all, and the amount ultimately realized may be materially less than the carrying value.

  • General expenses decreased 59.6% to $526,405 from $1,301,831, reflecting lower consulting and management fees, investor relations and marketing costs, office costs and professional fees, partly offset by share-based payments.

  • During the quarter, the Company acquired a $1.31 million Chaco Minerals convertible debenture in exchange for $1.30 million of loans receivable from Lyken.AI; no cash was received.

Chaco Debenture Investment

As previously announced on May 6, 2026, the Company entered into an assignment and assumption agreement with Lyken.AI under which it acquired a 3.0% convertible debenture issued by 1000175307 Ontario Ltd., doing business as Chaco Minerals Ltd. ("Chaco"), with a principal amount of $1,248,000. Consideration for the assignment was the extinguishment of $1,301,077 of loans receivable from Lyken.AI. No cash was received by the Company on the assignment.

As at June 30, 2026, the Company evaluated the fair value of the Chaco debenture to be $1,306,888, comprising the assigned value of $1,301,077 together with $5,811 of interest accrued after the assignment. The debenture bears interest at 3.0% per annum, matures on December 9, 2026 and is convertible into units of Chaco at $0.10 per unit, with each unit comprising one Chaco common share and one warrant exercisable at $0.10 per share for 36 months from issuance. Further detail is set out in Note 4 to the financial statements.

Lyken.AI Valuation

The Company evaluated the fair value of its investment in Lyken.AI at June 30, 2026 at $6,936,417 (September 30, 2025 - $2,800,000), recording an unrealized gain of $4,136,417. The valuation was derived from the consideration receivable under a share purchase agreement entered into on August 12, 2026, under which the Company agreed to sell a 9.9% interest in Lyken.AI to FingerMotion, Inc. for $686,705, to be satisfied by the issuance of 1,674,480 common shares of FingerMotion. The valuation applies the Nasdaq official closing price of FingerMotion common shares of US$0.29 on August 11, 2026 and a U.S./Canadian dollar exchange rate of 1.42. As the valuation uses inputs other than a quoted price for Lyken.AI itself, it is classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

These inputs were observed after the June 30, 2026 measurement date. The valuation of the Company's entire interest in Lyken.AI is derived from a transaction involving a 9.9% minority interest. The FingerMotion shares received as consideration are restricted and unregistered and are subject to a six-month hold period, and no cash consideration was paid. The transaction closed on August 17, 2026. Further detail is set out in Notes 4 and 12 to the financial statements.
