Digital Asset Technologies Inc. Announces Intention to Amend and Refile Financial Statements and MD&A

Digital Asset Technologies Faces Restatement and Business Model Retraction Amid Regulatory Failures

Executive Summary
  • On April 10, 2026, Digital Asset Technologies Inc. announced an intention to amend and refile its audited 2025 annual financial statements and MD&A due to identified disclosure and accounting errors.
  • Errors relate specifically to the valuation of the LiquidLink AI Corp. acquisition, share-based debt settlements, and investments in private companies.
  • A simultaneous clarifying news release retracted previously disclosed information regarding the LiquidLink AI acquisition and product timelines.
  • The company confirmed it did not obtain Money Services Business (MSB) registration with FINTRAC, prohibiting regulated payment activities in Canada.
  • Development of its cross-chain liquidity bridge remains in non-commercial testing; no commercial launch or customer onboarding has occurred.
  • Prior growth projections for investee companies Moo Inc., Goldbloom Inc., and Mylk Brands Inc. are deemed unreliable as entities are no longer active businesses (except Moo Inc.).
  • Previous financial statements and MD&A are deemed unreliable until corrected versions are posted.
Material Impact
  • The retraction of core business claims regarding MSB registration and commercial launch capabilities fundamentally alters the investment thesis.
  • Admission that prior financial statements are unreliable due to valuation errors in acquisitions and investments suggests potential hidden liabilities or asset write-downs not previously recognized.
  • Removal of unsupported promotional disclosures indicates previous marketing may have been misleading, increasing regulatory scrutiny risk.
  • The failure to secure MSB registration by the October 2025 deadline confirms a critical operational bottleneck that was previously implied as resolved or in progress.
  • Settlement agreements with former CEO and Auditor indicate internal governance disputes and potential audit quality issues prior to resignation.
  • The combination of financial restatement, business model retraction, and executive turnover represents a severe erosion of management credibility and asset integrity.
