Heritage Distilling Holding Company, Inc. (the “Registrant”) is filing this Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 with respect to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025 (the “Form 10-Q”). The compilation, dissemination, and review of the information required to be presented in the Form 10-Q for the relevant period, including, without limitation, the financial statements to be included therein, has imposed time constraints that have rendered timely filing of the Form 10-Q impracticable without undue hardship and expense to the Registrant. The Registrant undertakes the responsibility to file, and anticipates that it will file, the Form 10-Q no later than five days after its original prescribed due date.


(2)			Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed ? If answer is no, identify report(s).

			The Registrant expects to report net revenues of approximately $3.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 compared $1.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, an increase of approximately $1.2 million, or 69.7%, period over period. The increase in net revenues resulted primarily from approximately $1.9 million in new revenue for the quarter tied to the Registrant’s $IP token validator service that was launched on September 18, 2025.



			The Registrant expects to report net income (after tax) of approximately $196.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 compared to a net loss of approximately $3.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. Of the third quarter 2025 net income, approximately $245.8 million is expected to be attributable to the change in fair value of the Registrant’s intangible digital assets based on the $IP token’s closing price as of September 30, 2025, which amount is expected to be offset by a liability of approximately $49.4 million attributable to estimated deferred federal income taxes attributable to such change in fair value of intangible digital assets, which has not yet been offset by any of the Registrant’s 2024 net operating loss carryforwards of $61.2 million.
