Aurelion Inc.
AUREBusiness Summary
Aurelion Inc. (formerly Prestige Wealth Inc.) is a wealth management services provider based in Hong Kong, targeting high net worth and ultra-high net worth individuals in Asia, and also provides AI solutions services to enterprise clients 1. The company has recently implemented an XAUt treasury strategy, where Tether Gold (XAUt), a digital asset backed by physical gold, serves as its primary treasury reserve asset 2. The company's operations are conducted through wholly-owned subsidiaries including PPWM, PWM, SPW, InnoSphere Tech, and Tokyo Bay 3.
The company's core business model involves generating revenue from wealth management services through referral fees from licensed product brokers, primarily insurance brokers, based on the value of wealth management products purchased by clients 4. Additionally, Aurelion Inc. generates revenue from AI Solutions services provided to wealth management-related enterprise clients 5. The company's revenue streams are primarily transactional, with referral fees recognized at the point of policy origination 6.
Aurelion Inc.'s product and service lines include Wealth Management Services and AI Solutions Services. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, wealth management services generated $569 7 in revenue, accounting for approximately 0.03% 8 of total net revenue. This revenue is derived from referral fees on insurance products, predominantly savings plans and critical illness policies 9. The referral fees ranged from 2.85% to 14.25% 10 with an average of approximately 8.55% 11 of total policy premiums purchased upon policy origination for fiscal year 2025 12.
AI Solutions services, introduced in fiscal year 2025, generated $1,785,000 13 in revenue, representing approximately 99.97% 14 of the total net revenue for the period 15. This segment, operated through InnoSphere Tech, focuses on providing AI solution technology services to wealth management-related enterprise clients, including privatized language model research and deployment, enterprise knowledge base construction, and intelligent customer service system integration 16. The "WealthAI 360 System" processes vast amounts of data and supports the training of a specialized large model for the wealth management sector 17. The subsidiary Wealth AI also operates the "MyWealthAI.com" website, offering AI-driven wealth management solutions to high net worth and ultra-high net worth clients, though it had not generated revenue as of September 30, 2025 18.
For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, Aurelion Inc. reported total net revenue of $1,785,569 19. The company experienced a gross margin of $(2,323,148) 20 and a loss from operations of $(22,790,912) 21. The net loss from continuing operations was $(22,541,476) 22, with a basic and diluted EPS from continuing operations of $(0.439) 23. Cash and cash equivalents stood at $5,024 24 as of September 30, 2025. Total liabilities were $323,275 25, and total shareholders' equity (deficit) was $(291,659) 26. Net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations was $2,314,102 27.
Comparing fiscal year 2025 to 2024, total net revenue increased significantly from $263,697 28 to $1,785,569 29, primarily driven by the new AI Solutions services. Wealth management services revenue decreased by approximately 95.79% 30 from $13,505 31 in 2024 to $569 32 in 2025. Asset management services revenue decreased by 100% 33 from $250,192 34 in 2024 to nil in 2025, due to discontinuation of these services 35. Operating costs and expenses increased substantially, with selling, general and administrative expenses rising from $7,190,705 36 in 2024 to $20,467,764 37 in 2025, largely due to impairment losses on goodwill of $9,686,164 38 and intangible assets of $418,509 39, and increased share-based compensation of $2,899,450 40.
During fiscal year 2025, Aurelion Inc. introduced AI Solutions services and completed the acquisitions of Wealth AI PTE LTD, InnoSphere Tech Inc., and Tokyo Bay Management Inc. in November and December 2024, respectively 41. The company also disposed of Prestige Assets International Inc. (PAII) and its subsidiaries, ceasing asset management business from August 8, 2024 42. In October 2025, Aurelion Inc. completed a $100 million 43 private placement of equity securities and entered into a $50 million 44 three-year term loan, with proceeds primarily used to acquire $134 million 45 in Tether Gold (XAUt) at an average price of $4,021.81 46 per XAUt 47.
Business Outlook
Aurelion Inc. intends to increase XAUt held per share through reinvestment of cash flows and disciplined capital markets activity 48. The company also plans to generate a leveraged return from its $50 million 49 term loan and technology-related fees on unencumbered gold holdings 50. The unencumbered gold holdings will be provided to Antalpha, the controlling shareholder, as collateral to generate technology-related fees, with Antalpha assuming all default risk on funding derived from this collateral 51.
A major growth vector for Aurelion Inc. is its XAUt Treasury Strategy, which involves focusing on the accumulation of XAUt for long-term investment 52. The company sees a strong need for tokenized gold as a buffer against inflation, currency devaluation, and crypto volatility, noting that digital gold in exchange-traded funds has a market capitalization of over $200 billion 53, with only about 1% 54 currently on the blockchain 55. The company intends to use a majority of its cash and cash flows to effect on-XAUt blockchain purchases to build and maintain its XAUt position 56. On October 14, 2025, the company purchased $134 million 57 in XAUt at an average price of $4,021.81 58 per XAUt, using proceeds from the PIPE Financing 59.
Another significant growth area is the AI Solutions services, which were introduced in fiscal year 2025 60. Through its subsidiary InnoSphere Tech, the company maintains the "WealthAI 360 System" to process vast amounts of data and enhance the training of a specialized large model for the wealth management sector 61. In April 2025, InnoSphere Tech secured a commercial contract with an Asian wealth management financial service provider to create a secure and controllable privatized large-scale model system 62. The scope of services includes privatized language model research and deployment, enterprise knowledge base construction, semantic indexing system development, intelligent customer service system, and department-level AI Agent system integration and training and operation support 63.
The company expects its operating costs and expenses to continue to increase as its subsidiaries' business expands and as it operates as a public company 64. This includes plans to recruit additional client relationship managers for wealth management and asset management professionals, and to incur additional expenses in brand marketing and client experience optimization 65. The company also anticipates additional legal, accounting, and other professional service fees associated with being a publicly traded company in the United States 66.
Aurelion Inc. plans to finance its operations through cash flow from operating activities and funds raised from equity and/or debt after the filing of this Annual Report 67. The company has a 2025 Share Incentive Plan with a maximum aggregate of 76,187,375 68 ordinary shares initially issuable, subject to an automatic annual increase of 1.5% 69 of total outstanding shares, shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding rights, warrants or options, and shares reserved under the plan as of December 31 of the immediately preceding calendar year, not to exceed 10% 70 of such total shares at any time 71. As of the date of the Annual Report, 913,333 72 restricted share units have been granted and remain outstanding 73. The company currently intends to retain any future earnings to finance the operation and expansion of its business and does not expect to declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future 74.
Risk Factors
Aurelion Inc. faces several material risks. The wealth management business may not sustain its historical revenue growth rate, and the company cannot assure that it will not incur net losses in the future due to economic factors, industry competition, and its decision to implement an XAUt treasury strategy 75. The company is subject to concentration risk, having generated approximately 99.97% 76 of its total revenue for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, from wealth management based artificial intelligence solution services to a single customer 77. The company's financial results and the market price of its ordinary shares are closely linked to the volatile market prices of gold and XAUt, exposing investors to inherent volatility in gold and digital asset markets 78. The XAUt treasury strategy introduces complex liquidity risks across both traditional and digital asset markets, which may limit the company's ability to execute its strategy effectively 79. Redemption risk, pricing risk, and regulatory risk associated with XAUt as a stablecoin, including past regulatory actions against Tether's operators, may adversely affect XAUt's price 80. The company operates in a highly competitive market for gold and digital assets, facing established financial institutions, bullion banks, ETF sponsors, precious metals dealers, and emerging blockchain-native platforms 81. Investing in XAUt exposes the company to risks such as price volatility, limited liquidity, potential market abuse and manipulation, theft, and compliance failures at exchanges 82. The concentration of XAUt holdings enhances these risks, as significant declines in XAUt price would have a more pronounced impact on financial condition 83. XAUt holdings are less liquid than cash and cash equivalents and may not serve as a source of liquidity to the same extent 84. The use of XAUt as collateral in financing arrangements, including leveraged purchasing, exposes the company to significant counterparty risk, as it will not have direct control over rehypothecated XAUt 85. Regulatory actions to classify XAUt as a security could lead to the company's classification as an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, potentially requiring actions inconsistent with business interests and preventing public sale of securities in the United States 86. The company's prior lack of effective internal controls over financial reporting, including limited accounting staff and resources with appropriate U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting knowledge, and insufficient documented financial closing policies, may affect its ability to accurately report financial results or prevent fraud 87.
Management Priorities
Management's message to shareholders emphasizes a strategic shift towards an XAUt treasury strategy and AI Solutions services, while acknowledging the discontinuation of asset management services. The company has applied proceeds from a $100 million 88 private placement and a $50 million 89 three-year term loan to acquire $134 million 90 in Tether Gold (XAUt) at an average price of $4,021.81 91 per XAUt, signaling a strong commitment to this new treasury strategy. Key strategic priorities include the accumulation of XAUt for long-term investment, increasing XAUt held per share through reinvestment of cash flows and disciplined capital markets activity, and generating leveraged returns and technology-related fees on unencumbered gold holdings by providing them as collateral to Antalpha 92. Management also highlights the introduction and development of AI Solutions services, such as the "WealthAI 360 System," as a significant new revenue stream and a means to improve customer service quality and efficiency in the wealth management sector 93.
