Form Type: NT 10-Q

Filing Date: 2025-05-16

Corporate Action: Merger

Type: Update

Accession Number: 000164117225011264

Filing Summary: Beeline Holdings, Inc. is filing a Notification of Late Filing for its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2025. The filing deadline was May 15, 2025, but the company is unable to submit the report without unreasonable effort or expense. The delay is attributed to limited management and accounting resources required for the auditor review of financial statements following the company's merger with Beeline Financial Holdings, Inc. on October 7, 2024. The company aims to file the report by May 20, 2025. The anticipated financial results indicate a significantly increased net loss from continuing operations, which has risen from approximately $0.7 million in 2024 to about $6.9 million in 2025, largely due to higher operating expenses after the merger. Additionally, there were actions taken under an equity line of credit facility resulting in an increase in common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series G Preferred Stock and exercise of related warrants, expected to record a deemed dividend of approximately $8.0 million. The document also notes that there may be significant changes in the results of operations compared to the previous year, specifically relating to the inclusion of Beeline Financial’s financial performance.

Corporate Action: Acquisition

Type: Update

Accession Number: 000164117225006441

Filing Summary: On April 28, 2025, Beeline Holdings, Inc. filed an amendment to its Annual Report Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, primarily to include additional details originally omitted in Part III of the report due to the company's decision not to file a definitive proxy statement within the required timeframe. This amendment reflects a recent acquisition on October 7, 2024, where Beeline Holdings acquired Beeline Financial Holdings, Inc. through a merger, leading to the issuance of shares of convertible preferred stock to former Beeline Financial shareholders. Shareholder approval was obtained on March 7, 2025, for the conversion of these securities, followed by changes in the Company’s board and an official name change to Beeline Holdings, Inc. The company also executed a one-for-10 reverse stock split on March 12, 2025, impacting the total number of shares issued, while all financial statements from the initial Form 10-K remain unchanged except for the new sections added in this amendment. Notably, it was emphasized that only certifications in compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act were included in this filing, as no new financial statements were presented.
