## Management's discussion and analysis

As filed, 49,298 characters.

### Introductory Note

*Except as otherwise indicated by the context, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) to the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” are references to the combined business Aureus Greenway Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries. The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) summarizes the significant factors affecting our results of operations, liquidity, capital resources and contractual obligations. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere herein.*

### General Overview of Operations

We own and operate two public golf country clubs in Florida that we acquired in 2014. Our golf country clubs include two golf-courses with over 13,000 yards of combined fairways, clubhouses boasting food and beverage options, aquatic golf ranges, and pro shops to assist any level of golfers. Our two golf country clubs are situated on over 289 acres of multi-service recreational property.

Each of our golf country clubs is organized into four revenue streams: (i) golf operations, (ii) sales of food and beverage; (iii) sales of merchandise; and (iv) ancillary income.

### Management’s Plans

Over the next twelve months, we plan to continue to promote, market, manage and operate our golf country clubs with the intent to (i) attract and retain customers across a number of demographic groups to further develop customer loyalty and capture a greater share of customers in the greater Orlando Florida region and (ii) increase revenue from managing and operating our golf country clubs.

We believe attracting and retaining customers while increasing customer engagement and loyalty by providing what we believe to be a high quality golfing experience will drive our revenue. Drivers of our revenue growth will require further steps to maintain and build on quality experiences at our golf country clubs. To achieve the foregoing, we intend to focus on:

- Renovating and modernizing our golf country clubs to promote more enjoyable use of our facilities;
- Retaining new regional customers from the growth of the surrounding greater Orlando Florida region through marketing efforts; and
- Expanding our portfolio through regional country club acquisitions.

### Key Factors Affecting our Results of Operations

a. Seasonality and weather

Our businesses are subject to seasonality and typically the first quarter of each year is our busiest season of the year. Then, even during our busy season, our business activities are affected by weather conditions. In 2025, we believe that we experienced more than average rainy days during the first two months causing our revenue to be under pressure.

b. Cost of maintenance due to inflation

The DTE Agreement was renewed in 2022 and the renewed contractual price has been fully reflected in Q1 2025, the higher contractual price is a reflection of the inflationary environment that subsequently impacted the labor, fertilizer and chemical markets. The maintenance cost and contract with DTE may be subject to further increases in 2025 if the inflationary environment continues to impact our maintenance needs.

### Basis of Presentation

The financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) of the United States. They include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All transactions and balances among these entities have been eliminated upon consolidation.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by the U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with the U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with SEC rules and regulations. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and include all adjustments, in normal recurring nature, as necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2025, and results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by the U.S. GAAP. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or for any future period. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, and related notes included in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.

### Critical Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates

We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our Group’s financial information. Some of our accounting policies involve subjective assumptions and estimates, as well as complex judgements relating to accounting items. In each case, the determination of these items requires management judgements based on information and financial data that may change in future periods. When reviewing our financial statements, you should consider: (i) our selection of accounting policies; and (ii) the results to changes in conditions and assumptions. We set forth below those accounting policies that we believe are of critical importance to us or involve the most significant estimates and judgements used in the preparation of our Group’s financial statements.

### Accounts Receivable, net

Accounts receivable mainly represent amounts due from customers paid by credit cards for provision of golf operations services and sales of merchandise and food and beverages which are recorded net of allowance for expected credit losses. The credit cards payment is to be settled either within few days after the year end date due to the timing difference for the payment transfer from credit card center to the bank accounts of the Company or within one month after the services were utilized by the customers who have authorized the Company to make the payment through their credit cards. The Company reviews accounts receivable periodically for collectability and establishes an allowance for expected credit losses and records provision for allowance for expected credit losses expense when deemed necessary. The Company records an allowance for expected credit losses that is based on historical trends, customer knowledge, any known disputes, future expectation, future economic situation consideration and considers the aging of the accounts receivable balances combined with management’s estimate of future potential recoverability. Accounts receivable are written off against the allowance after all attempts to collect a receivable have failed. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had no allowance for expected credit losses due to no experiences on default from customers or failure of transfer from credit card center after payment authorization was made by customers and all outstanding accounts receivable as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were subsequently settled before this report date.

### Impairment for Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, representing property and equipment with finite lives, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. In evaluating long-lived assets for recoverability, the Company uses its best estimate of future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and eventual disposition in accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-15. To the extent that estimated future, undiscounted cash inflows attributable to the asset, less estimated future, undiscounted cash outflows, are less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the difference between the carrying value of such asset and its fair value. Assets to be disposed of and for which there is a committed plan of disposal, whether through sale or abandonment, are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. If an impairment is identified, The Company would reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flows approach or, when available and appropriate, to comparable market values. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, no impairment of long-lived assets was recognized.

### Leases

ASC 842 supersedes the lease requirements in ASC 840 “Leases”, and generally requires lessees to recognize operating and finance lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use (“ROU”) assets on the balance sheet and to provide enhanced disclosures surrounding the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leasing arrangements. All leases in the Group as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 are accounted for as operating leases.

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we generally use our incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.

Any lease with a term of 12 months or less is considered short-term. As permitted by ASC 842, short-term leases are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Consistent with all other operating leases, short-term lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company determines the present value of minimum future lease payments for operating leases by estimating a rate of interest that it would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term, an amount equal to the lease payments and a similar economic environment (the “incremental borrowing rate” or “IBR”).The Company determines the appropriate IBR by identifying a reference rate and making adjustments that take into consideration financing options and certain lease-specific circumstances.

### Revenue Recognition

All revenue recognized in the consolidated statements of operations is considered to be revenue from contracts with customers in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of its services and products to customers in return for expected consideration and includes the following elements:

- executed contracts with the Company’s customers that it believes are legally enforceable;
- identification of performance obligations in the respective contract;
- determination of the transaction price for each performance obligation in the respective contract;
- allocation the transaction price to each performance obligation; and
- recognition of revenue only when the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

The Company recognizes revenue when, or as, performance obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied, which generally occurs when, or as, control of promised goods or services are transferred to customers. Revenue is measured as the amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services (“transaction price”). To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing the most likely amount to which the Company expects to be entitled. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in the Company’s judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. Estimates of variable consideration and the determination of whether to include such estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of the Company’s anticipated performance and all information that is reasonably available. The Company accounts for taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities on a net basis and excludes these amounts from revenues.

In addition, the Company defers certain costs to fulfill the Company’s contracts with customers to the extent such costs relate directly to the contracts, are expected to generate resources that will be used to satisfy the Company’s performance obligations under the contracts, and are expected to be recovered through revenue generated under the contracts. Contract fulfillment costs are incurred as the Company satisfies the related performance obligations.

#### Revenue from golf operations

There are two types of service charges maintained by the Company, the players can either (1) subscribe to the entertainment services for a period of time of one year at a discount (i.e. annual subscription green fees); or (2) purchase the services at the counter by one-time payment (i.e. one-time green fees). The golf courses are open to public and hence our customers include both local and overseas citizens. The charges comprise of both the cart fee and fees for playing in the golf course, which is fixed without variable consideration, and the customers either pay via cash or credit card. The entire service fee from customers is non-refundable and required to be paid in advance.

The Company sells annual green fee subscriptions to local patrons. The performance obligation of the annual subscription is for the Company to provide a patron with access to the golf course and cart, subject to availability of a tee time for a patron to play a single round on the 18-hole course; the round of golf is expected to be completed before sunset of the day of the booking of that tee time. The Company recognizes revenue from these annual subscriptions on a monthly basis over twelve months. The annual subscriptions are non-refundable. Payments for subscriptions in the form of cash or credit card are received in advance, and are recorded as contract liabilities-deferred revenue, and recognized to revenue at the end of each month. Management believes that the services provided each month are substantially similar and result in the transfer of substantially similar services to the customers each month. That is, the benefit consumed by the customers is substantially similar for each month, even though the exact volume of services may vary. The Company concludes that the annual green fees subscription satisfies the requirements of ASC 606-10-25-14(b) to be accounted for as a single performance obligation. The annual subscriptions fees are fixed and there is no variable consideration, significant financing components or noncash consideration. There is no contract asset related to these annual green fee subscriptions. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company recorded contract liabilities - deferred revenue of $225,670 and $162,226, respectively.

One-time green fees require the Company to provide to a patron access to a designated 18-hole golf course and cart to play a single round of golf subject to non-hazardous weather conditions that is expected to be completed before sunset of the day of booking of that tee time. Management believes access to the golf course and the card constitute a single performance obligation as either service is not available to be purchased separately. Payments for tee times are non-refundable and are received via cash or credit card immediately prior to the initiation of the patron playing the round of 18-hole golf; therefore, and one-time green fees are not refundable. Typically, in the event that weather is not expected to permit the patron to play and complete the single round of golf, the Company will not undertake the transaction and take payment from the patron. The one-time green fees are fixed and there is no variable consideration.

#### Sales of merchandise, food and beverage

Golf course patrons regularly buy golf balls, clothing, paraphernalia, and gloves, or will enjoy food and beverage offered at the clubhouses. Patrons make orders at the counter. The price is fixed without variable consideration. The Company recognizes revenue when the merchandise or food and beverage are delivered, net of discounts, if any and control of the product has been passed to the customer. If the clothing or wearables have product defects, they are subject to exchange, but all sales are final and not subject to return. Product delivery is evidenced by a payment receipt record. Payments are settled via cash or credit card. The respective revenue is recognized at a point in time. There are no warranties, sales returns and refunds after the orders are delivered to the customers at the counter.

#### Ancillary revenue

Ancillary revenue represented the lease of its clubhouse for several hours for events held by associations or individuals such as golf tournaments and lease of golf club to individuals for one day playing golf in the Company’s golf course. The revenue was recognized upon services were rendered (i.e. on daily basis when the venue or golf club was used that day). Deposit was received in advance for booking of clubhouse and recognized as contract liabilities – deferred income upon receipt and recognized as revenue in the statements of income when service was rendered or no show after booking. Deposit received is non-refundable.

### Revenue

Revenues disaggregated by major revenue streams for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 are disclosed in the table below:

| Golf operations | For the three months ended March 31, 2025 | 2024 | Changes $% |  |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| – annual membership dues | $34,166 | $74,223 | $(40,057) | (54)% |
| – one-time green fees | 994,774 | 1,146,658 | (151,884) | (13)% |
| Sales of food and beverage | 225,803 | 245,261 | (19,458) | (8)% |
| Sales of merchandise | 44,504 | 51,092 | (6,588) | (13)% |
| Ancillary revenue | 29,124 | 36,401 | (7,277) | (20)% |
|  | $1,328,371 | $1,553,635 | $(225,264) | (14)% |

Our revenue is primarily comprised of golf operations, sales of food and beverage and sales of merchandise. Overall decrease in revenue period over period by $225,264 or 14% was mainly due to the decrease in all revenue stream.

Revenue from golf operations decreased by $191,941 or 16% from $1,220,881 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $1,028,940 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, which was driven by the decrease in both one-time green fees from golf operations by $151,884 or 13% and annual membership dues from golf operations by $40,057 or 54%.

Revenue from annual membership dues accounted for 3% and 5% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. It decreased by 54% mainly due to more receipts in advance closed to the period ended March 31, 2025 and will be deferred to be recognized as revenue during the fiscal year of 2025.

One-time green fees from golf operations accounted for 75% and 74% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Decrease in one-time green fees by 13% resulted from the decrease in total number of rounds by 4% from approximately 23,000 rounds during the three months ended March 31, 2024 to approximately 22,000 rounds during the three months ended March 31, 2025 as well as the decrease in average price per round by 8% from $49 per round for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $45 per round for the three months ended March 31, 2025 due to lower was offered to the players as a result of less tourists visiting Florida during the current period because of the inflation.

Decrease in revenue from sales of food and beverage by $19,458 or 8% from $245,261 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $225,803 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, which was contributed by the decrease in quantities sold by 8% from approximately 40,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to approximately 37,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and the average unit price remained stable at $2 per unit for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $2 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in quantity sold was in line with decrease in golf operations.

Decrease in revenue from sales of merchandise by $6,588 or 13% from $51,092 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $44,504 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, which was contributed by the decrease in sales of golf balls, men’s and ladies’ wear and gloves by 13% as a result of the decrease in sales to customers playing golf during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Ancillary revenue mainly represented the equipment and facilities rental, including the lease of our clubhouse and lease of golf club to our customers. The decrease by $7,277 or 20% was mainly due to decrease in demand for rental services for activities and events during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

### Operating expenses

Operating expenses consisted of the following:

|  | For the three months ended March 31, 2025 | 2024 | Changes% |  |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Golf operating costs(1) | $323,259 | $391,231 | $(67,972) | (17)% |
| Cost of food and beverage sales(1) | 65,882 | 70,808 | (4,926) | (7)% |
| Cost of merchandise sales(1) | 23,298 | 24,116 | (818) | (3)% |
| Salaries and benefits | 273,987 | 235,848 | 38,139 | 16% |
| Depreciation | 50,784 | 50,007 | 777 | 2% |
| Other general and administrative expenses | 238,124 | 301,515 | (63,391) | (21)% |
|  | $975,334 | $1,073,525 | $(98,191) | (9)% |

(1) Exclusive of depreciation and salaries and benefits shown separately above.

The operating expenses of the Company mainly consist of costs related to golf operations, costs related to sales of food and beverage and merchandise, salaries and benefits, depreciation and other miscellaneous administrative expenses. The overall operating expenses decreased from $1,073,525 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $975,334 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, which was primarily due to the decreases in golf operating costs and other general and administrative expenses and partially offset by the increase in salaries and benefits during the current period with details discussed below.

Golf operating expenses consisted of course upkeep expenses including the regular repair and maintenance of the golf courses and landscaping. Decrease in golf operating expenses by $67,972 or 17% from $391,231 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $323,259 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 which was attributable to the decrease in golf course maintenance related expenses as a result of decrease in number of rounds by golf players and resulted in reduction in one-off course maintenance and improvements projects carried out by Down-to-Earth.

The decrease in cost of food and beverage by $4,926 or 7% from $70,808 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $65,882 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was in line with the decrease in sales of food and beverage.

Our cost of merchandise sales consisted of mainly the purchase cost of golf balls, men’s and ladies’ wears and gloves. Decrease in cost of merchandise sales was in line with the decrease in revenue from sales of merchandise.

Our salaries and benefits mainly consisted of the director’s remuneration, the staff costs and welfare of management, operating team, cashier and administrative personnel. The increase in salaries and benefits by $38,139 or 16% was primarily due to the increase in salaries paid to the Chief Financial Officer by approximately $41,000 and the directors fee paid to the independent Directors by approximately $32,000 and partially offset by the decrease in director’s remuneration paid to Mr. Chi Ping Cheung by approximately $42,000.

Our depreciation is mainly derived from the recreational building, golf carts, pump stations and other operating equipment. The depreciation remained stable at $50,784 and $50,007 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 respectively since no significant purchase or disposal of property and equipment.

Other general and administrative expenses mainly consisted of professional fees, repair and maintenance of restaurant machineries and equipment, utilities, liability insurance, personal property tax and real estate tax, credit card charges and other miscellaneous administrative expenses. Decrease in other general and administrative expenses by $63,391 or 21% from $301,515 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $238,124 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was mainly attributable to the decrease in audit and quarterly review fee for listing purposes.

### Other income (expense)

Other income (expense) mainly includes interest expenses regarding the bank and other borrowings incurred, bank interest income and additional service charges from customers who paid by credit cards. The increase in other income was mainly due to the interest income generated from the cash deposit in banks upon successful listing of common stocks in Nasdaq.

### Income tax expenses

The Company provides for income tax under ASC 740, “Income Taxes” under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations.

The components of the Company’s deferred tax asset and reconciliation of income taxes computed at the new federal statutory rate of 21% to the income tax amount recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

The Group evaluated the recoverable amounts of deferred tax assets to the extent that future taxable profits will be available against which the NOLs and temporary difference can be utilized.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $352,053 of net operating losses (“NOLs”) which can be carried forward indefinitely.

The NOLs carry forwards are subject to certain limitations due to the change in control of the Company pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 382.

The Company recorded income tax expenses of $144,329 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and income tax expenses of $159,982 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The effective tax rate increased from 32.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to 35.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, which was mainly due to the increase in operating costs by the Company which is not subject to income tax.

### Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

### Credit Risk

The Company’s principal financial assets are cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivables. The Company’s credit risk is primarily concentrated in its cash which is held with institutions with a high credit worthiness. The Company has not experienced losses on their accounts and management believes, based upon the quality of the financial institutions, that the credit risk with regard to these deposits is not significant.

Management believes that the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash.

The Company mitigates its credit risk on receivables by actively managing and monitoring its receivables. The Company mitigates credit risk by evaluating the creditworthiness of customers prior to conducting business with them and monitoring its exposure for credit losses with existing customers. Since all accounts receivable as at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 are aged within one year and collected all receivables subsequent to year end, minimum credit risk was noted for accounts receivable.

### Vendor concentration risk

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company owed 80% and 84% of accounts payable to a key supplier, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, one vendor accounted for 26% and 28% of our total operating costs, respectively. No other vendor accounts for more than 10% of our total operating costs for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

### Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is not exposed to interest rate risk as its financial liabilities carry interest at fixed rates.

### Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.

Typically, the Company ensures that it has sufficient cash on demand to meet expected operational expenses for a period of twelve months, including through operations and financial support from our stockholders and financial institutions. We are continuing to focus on improving operational efficiency and cost reductions and enhancing efficiency, as well as servicing of financial obligations: this excludes the potential impact of extreme circumstances that cannot reasonably be predicted, such as natural disasters. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the necessary financing or negotiating the terms of the existing short-term liabilities to meet our current and future liquidity needs.

### Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. Our market risk exposure is generally limited to those risks that arise in the normal course of business, as we do not engage in speculative, non-operating transactions, nor do we utilize financial instruments or derivative instruments for trading purposes.
