AI Financial Corp. has swapped ALT5 Sigma Canada for a secured note and restricted shares. As a result, only $1 million of note principal is due in the near term, while a separate, conditional $WLFI transferability window approaches.
On Aug. 3, the company sold its indirect, wholly owned subsidiary to Prime Delta. Under the terms disclosed Aug. 7, AI Financial received a $12 million secured promissory note and 11,551,750 restricted Prime Delta shares. Prime Delta must pay the first $1 million of note principal on Aug. 11.
Prime Delta must pay the remaining $11 million from 20% of its post-closing equity financings. If those payments do not retire the balance, four annual installments of $2.75 million will begin Aug. 3, 2027. In addition, the note carries 4% annual interest. All of Prime Delta’s assets secure it, and three third parties guarantee it.
Overall, the deal exchanges an operating subsidiary for mostly deferred consideration rather than cash at closing. ALT5 Sigma Canada generated $23.5 million of revenue and a $3.3 million net loss in 2025, after recording $15.5 million of revenue and a $600,000 profit in 2024.
Meanwhile, in its May 18 report for the quarter ended March 28, AI Financial disclosed $10.5 million of cash and $12.3 million of operating cash use for the period. Moreover, the company also reported a $271.3 million loss from continuing operations, a working-capital deficit and substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Against that baseline, the sale creates a near-term claim on $1 million but leaves most of the note dependent on future financing proceeds or later installments.
The $WLFI date remains conditional
On June 10, management said its financial position had improved, pointing to its World Liberty Financial token holdings. In that update, AI Financial expected 3,583,585,650 $WLFI to become transferable Aug. 12, subject to the effectiveness of a resale registration statement covering shares issued to World Liberty Financial and shares underlying the warrants granted to it.
However, AI Financial also said token availability should not be read as an intention to sell. Transferability would create an option, not cash by itself.
The company’s May 18 quarterly report said it had not yet filed the required resale registration statement. At the same time, the SEC submissions available through Aug. 8 contained no public filing showing that the condition had become effective.
Finally, the transaction does not remove AI Financial’s near-term liquidity pressure. The first test is whether Prime Delta makes the $1 million payment due Aug. 11; meanwhile, the next day’s larger $WLFI liquidity window remains conditional.
