Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Stock Purchase Agreement

On November 24, 2025, Exodus Movement, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with W3C Corp. (the “Target”) and Garth Howat (“Seller”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire from Seller all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Target (the “Transaction”). The Target and its subsidiaries include Monavate Holdings Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Monavate”) and Baanx.com Ltd. and Baanx US Corp (collectively, “Baanx”). Monavate is a global leader in payment solutions for fintech, Web3 and global enterprises, and Baanx is a leading provider of non-custodial cards and B2B2C digital asset services.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company will acquire the Target for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $175 million, subject to customary adjustments for indebtedness, cash, working capital and transaction expenses. The purchase price payable at closing will be reduced by the outstanding amounts of the Pre-Closing Seller Loan as more fully described below. In addition, Seller has agreed that a portion of the purchase price consideration otherwise payable to Seller will be used to fund transaction-related bonus payments to certain key recipients in an aggregate amount of approximately $32.9 million, which amount will reduce the purchase price dollar-for-dollar, with approximately $16.0 million of such amount structured as retention bonuses that will vest and become payable subject to the applicable recipients’ continued employment with the Target or its affiliates through the 12-month anniversary of the Transaction’s closing, subject to customary exceptions set forth in the applicable award documentation. Any portion of the retention bonus that is forfeited in accordance with its terms will be reallocated among the other recipients, including by increasing the amounts payable to such recipients, by the Target after reasonable consultation with the Company if occurring prior to closing, and by the Company in its sole discretion after reasonable consultation with the Target if occurring following closing.

The purchase price is expected to be funded with a combination of cash on hand and financing from the Company’s credit facility with Galaxy Digital, which is secured by the Company's Bitcoin holdings. The Transaction is expected to close in 2026, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including (i) the accuracy, as of the closing date, of each party’s representations and warranties (subject to agreed materiality standards); (ii) the performance in all material respects of the parties’ respective covenants; (iii) receipt of specified regulatory change-in-control and licensing approvals, including approvals from the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority and the Bank of Latvia (collectively, the “Regulatory Approvals”); and (iv) delivery of customary officer’s certificates.

The Purchase Agreement includes customary termination rights for each party, including the right to terminate, (i) by mutual written consent of the Company and Seller, (ii) if the Transaction has not been consummated by August 18, 2026 (the “Outside Date”) (which may be extended unilaterally by either party for an additional 90-day period in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement), (iii) by either party if there is a material inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made, or material breach of any covenant, by the other party, which would prevent the satisfaction of the closing conditions, (iv) by the Company if the Regulatory Approvals are refused or granted subject to conditions that are materially detrimental to the Company and would be reasonably likely to materially and adversely impact the Target and its subsidiaries, and (v) by either party if the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority refuses to approve the transaction or any governmental agency has enjoined the consummation of the Transaction. The Purchase Agreement contains certain representations and warranties and covenants as specified therein, including such provisions as are customary for a transaction of this nature.

The foregoing summary of the Purchase Agreement and the Transaction does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Purchase Agreement is filed to provide investors with information regarding its terms. The representations, warranties and covenants contained therein were made only for purposes of that agreement and as of specific dates, were made solely for the benefit of the parties thereto, may be subject to qualifications and limitations agreed by the contracting parties, and may be subject to standards of materiality different from those applicable to investors. Accordingly, investors should not rely on those provisions as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the parties.

Pre-Closing Seller Loan

On November 18, 2025, concurrently with execution of the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a secured promissory note (the “Pre-Closing Seller Loan”) with Garth Howat, pursuant to which the Company extended a loan in the principal amount of $10 million to Mr. Howat. The Pre-Closing Seller Loan bears interest at a rate of 6.00% per annum, calculated on a 365-day year, compounded quarterly and capitalized and added to principal, and is secured by a pledge of Mr. Howat’s equity interests in the Target. All principal and accrued interest are due and payable on the earlier of (i) the closing of the Transaction and (ii) specified termination events described in the Pre-Closing Seller Loan. Upon consummation of the Transaction, the principal amount and accrued interest will be offset against the purchase-price payment otherwise payable to Mr. Howat under the Purchase Agreement. The Pre-Closing Seller Loan contains customary representations, covenants, events of default and acceleration provisions. The foregoing summary of the

Pre-Closing Seller Loan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the secured promissory note, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Term and Delayed-Draw Term Facility

On November 18, 2025, in connection with the Transaction, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Target, as borrower and guarantor, pursuant to which the Company agreed to make available to Target (i) a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $60 million (the “Term Facility”) and (ii) a delayed-draw term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $10 million (the “Delayed Draw Facility,” and together with the Term Facility, the “Facilities”).

Loans under the Term Facility bear interest at a rate of 12.00% per annum, calculated on a 360-day year and compounded monthly. Loans under the Delayed Draw Facility bear interest at a rate of 6.00% per annum, compounded quarterly. All accrued interest is capitalized and added to principal. The Facilities mature on the earlier of (i) completion of the Transaction and (ii) the date falling 12 months after the first borrowing under the Term Facility, subject to extension as provided in the Loan Agreement if specified regulatory approvals remain pending or within a certain period as specified in the Loan Agreement if the Purchase Agreement is terminated; provided, however, that the Delayed Draw Facility will only become payable in the event of a breach by W3C as more fully described in the Delayed Draw Facility. The borrower may prepay outstanding amounts in whole or in part, subject to the payment of the Fees (as defined below) and customary notice requirements.

The Loan Agreement provides for (i) a one-time upfront fee of 2% of the Term Facility commitments, payable at initial funding, and (ii) an exit fee of up to $7.2 million, less the aggregate of the upfront fee and any capitalized interest at the time of repayment (the “Fees”). All obligations under the Facilities are secured by assets of the Target and its subsidiaries, subject to customary exceptions. The Facility Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including restrictions on additional indebtedness, liens, asset sales, acquisitions and distributions; a minimum-liquidity covenant; and customary events of default (including non-payment, covenant breach and insolvency).

The foregoing summary of the Loan Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Loan Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
