MDB Capital Holdings concluded fiscal year 2025 with a focus on strategic investments totaling $4 million in MDB Direct and PatentVest, despite a $5.7 million cash burn. The company anticipates a reduction in operating expenses to $6 million annually following the spinout of these business units. Management emphasized the potential for these investments to drive future financial performance, forecasting revenue of $2.09 million for FY2025 and FY2026.
