Solana (HSDT) Q4 2025 Earnings Transcript
Image source: The Motley Fool. Friday, May 15, 2026 at 4:30 p.m. ET Executive Chairman — Joseph Chee Director — Cosmo Jiang Chief Financial Officer — Jeff Mathiesen Choon Wee Chee: Thank you. Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to Solana Company's Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Earnings Call. I'm Joseph Chee, the Executive Chairman of Solana Company, and I'm pleased to report on transformative year for Solana and the shareholders. When we closed our $500-plus-million PIPE transaction in September 2025, we described it as a new beginning. Looking back over the full year and particularly over the fourth quarter, I believe we have validated the ambition with tangible results across every dimension of our strategy. Our digital treasury is larger. Our efficacy is broader. Our capital markets tool kit is more sophisticated, and we have expanded the business well beyond a passive holding structure into a multifaceted platform with distinct value-adding legs. I'll speak to the strategic picture and then Cosmo Director at the Solana Company will take you through the operational and financial results. As we closed out 2025, I want to walk through the 3 distinct activities that together define the foundation of the Solana company and how each contributes to our goal of creating long-term shareholder value by growing Solana Company's SOL per share and contributing to the growth of Solana ecosystem. The first is capital markets. from our ATM programs and other offerings to share buybacks to operating businesses that synergize directly with our SOL holdings and the broader Solana ecosystem. The second is asset management. The core accumulation or SOL and this disciplined deployment of capital to grow our holdings in a way that's accretive on a per share basis. This includes taking yield which is the unchanged income we generate by taking substantially all of our SOL. This is not passive. It requires a rigorous validated selection, MEF optimization and continuous rebalancing and it produces a meaningful and growing revenue stream. Cosmo will speak to the specific API we achieved in '25 and year-to-date, 2026 and how that compares to public benchmarks. It also includes intelligent risk-adjusted deployment into other new opportunities on Solana. We'll talk about our on change partnership with Anchorage and Kamino on this front later. The third is marketing and partnersh...

Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to Solana Company's First Quarter 2026 Earnings Call.

In late April, we closed the strategic capital raise as disclosed in our public filings. The incremental offering led by global institution investor, Mirae, we participation by HashKey marks an inflection point demonstrating both deep commitment from leading APAC institutional investors and the market premium for our Solana strategy.

Solana Q1 Earnings Call Highlights
Interested in Solana Company? Here are five stocks we like better. Revenue jumped to $3.6 million in Q1, driven mainly by $3.4 million of staking revenue tied to Solana’s digital asset treasury strategy, up from just $49,000 a year earlier. The company posted a much wider net loss of $99.8 million as SOL’s roughly 33% quarterly price decline triggered about $89.2 million in unrealized digital asset losses, plus additional realized and investment losses. Management emphasized capital allocation and growth initiatives, including share repurchases, an $8 million capital raise, and APAC expansion plans focused on advisory services, validator infrastructure, and an AI-powered compliance platform. Solana (NASDAQ:HSDT) reported sharply higher first-quarter revenue tied to its digital asset treasury strategy, while a steep decline in the price of SOL drove large non-cash losses and a wider net loss for the period. Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Joseph Chee said the company made “significant progress” in building its “multifaceted digital asset treasury platform” and executing its Solana treasury strategy during a volatile period for crypto markets. He said the company continued to focus on increasing SOL per share through capital markets activity, staking rewards and operational discipline. → Micron Investors Face a High-Stakes Moment After the Latest Rally Chee also highlighted management changes, including the appointment of Madelene Gani as Chief Operating Officer and Deputy Chief Financial Officer in early April. The company announced on the call that Gani will serve as Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary. Gani said first-quarter revenue totaled $3.6 million, consisting primarily of $3.4 million in staking revenue and $0.2 million in other revenue. That compared with $49,000 in revenue in the first quarter of 2025, before the company’s staking revenue tied to its treasury strategy contributed to results. → How Bad Could Tesla’s Cybertruck Recall Be for Shares? Cost of revenue was $180,000, producing gross profit of $3.4 million. In the prior-year period, Solana reported a gross loss of $72,000. Gani said the increase in cost of revenue was primarily related to staking revenue-related costs. General and administrative expenses rose to $5.2 million from $3.9 million a year earlier, reflecting the expansion of operations associated wit...

With that, I would now like to turn the call over to Solana Company's Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer, Joseph Chee.
Thank you, Serena. Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to Solana Company's first quarter 2026 earnings call. I'm pleased to report on another quarter of significant progress as we continue to build out our multifaceted digital asset treasury platform and execute our Solana treasury strategy. Before diving into our strategic initiatives, I would like to highlight key additions to the Solana Company. In early April, we welcomed Madelene Gani as our Chief Operating Officer and Deputy Chief Financial Officer, and today announced that she will serve as our Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, and Secretary. Madelene is joining us on this earnings call for the first time, and she will be presenting our financial results later in the call. In late April, we closed a strategic capital raise as disclosed in our public filings.
The institutional offering led by global institutional investor Mirae, with participation by HashKey, marks an inflection point demonstrating both deep commitment from leading APAC institutional investors and a market premium for our Solana strategy. Now turning to the first quarter of 2026. In a quarter of crypto market volatility and headwinds, I'm proud that our first quarter's performance and how we stayed focused on execution. The strategic use of capital markets, on-chain opportunities, and operational discipline enabled the company to maximize our SOL per share during the first quarter. Our first quarter revenue increased exponentially from the prior year.
Notwithstanding the volatility of Solana price, we remain resilient and continued our execution of generating consistent staking reward of 32,500 Solana tokens in the first quarter of 2026 compared to 34,000 Solana tokens in the fourth quarter of 2025. At Solana Company, we are building a diversified revenue engine architect to target institutional demand in what believed to be one of the fastest-growing digital asset region in the world. We support the growth of on-chain ecosystem through three integrated revenue-generating service lines. Advisory services, we provide bespoke advisory to traditional financial institutions and corporates, enabling them to unlock tangible business value through blockchain adoption. Second, validated infrastructure. We offer what we call Pacific Backbone, a compliant high-performance infrastructure necessary for regulated institutions to scale staking and validation activities in Solana. Platform business is the third piece.
We bring an AI-powered end-to-end compliance stack. This serves as the critical foundation for long-term collaborative digital asset operations, seamlessly connecting our global business partners. With these initiatives represent a multi-year trajectory, we expect operational impact to be felt within this fiscal year. We are not simply participating in the APAC growth trend. We aim to be positioned to drive meaningful impact to accelerate Solana adoption through our bespoke advisory services, Pacific Backbone, compliant and high-performance infrastructure, and orchestration through our platform business. To illustrate how this unlock in recurring revenue, we view them as a self-reinforcing flywheel.
First, our bespoke advisory services provide a strategic roadmap and implementation services for major financial institutions and corporates to transition on chain and unlock tangible business outcomes. By focusing on high impact use cases, specifically stablecoin payments and real world asset tokenization, we lower the barrier to entry, moving our partners from concept to execution with speed and regulatory confidence. Next, the Pacific Backbone serves as the foundation of our flywheel. The infrastructure provides the enterprise-grade throughput, security, compliance operation that institutional clients demand. By offering what we believe to be a trusted high-performance environment, we enable our partners to scale their on-chain operation with a reliability unique to our specialized APAC footprint. In early May, we announced a strategic partnership with Jito to advance yield optimization capabilities to our validator operation.
The broader digital asset, the Pacific platform business is our AI-powered orchestration foundation, offering an end-to-end compliance and operation stack. It acts as a connective tissue for collaborative digital asset operations. It continuously brings and connect business partners, serving as the essential layer to foster digital asset operation and business partnerships. Asia Pacific represent the majority of the world's crypto users and a substantial share of global cross-border payments and trading activities, yet it remains significantly underserved by Solana's existing network infrastructure. We believe our integrated approach, advisory, infrastructure, and platform position us to serve this market and potentially capture meaningful recurring revenue streams if and as adoption accelerates.
With that, before I turn it over to Cosmo to elaborate on our treasury management and capital markets results, I would also like to mention that, as you were able to see in our event subsequent section of the Form 10-Q, we have completed the divestiture of our cash burning pons business, the medical device business, and completed a series of rationalization steps in Q2. The positive financial results will be felt in Q2. Let me pass the podium back to Cosmo.
Thanks, Joseph Chee. Hey, everyone, I'm Cosmo Jiang, Director at Solana Company and General Partner at Pantera Capital. Pantera Capital is the asset manager for Solana Company's digital asset treasury since the close of the PIPE transaction in September 2025, and I am pleased to report on another quarter of disciplined execution. As we discussed last quarter, the digital asset treasury market is moved on from its genesis phase and is solidly in its execution and consolidation phase. The first quarter of 2026 continues to validate this. We saw a further differentiation among DATS with operators that have institutional-grade infrastructure, transparent reporting, and disciplined capital management beginning to outperform. The broader digital asset market experienced significant volatility during the quarter, with Solana declining approximately 32% in price from December 31st, 2025, through the end of the first quarter.
Despite this headwind, we remain focused on our core strategy, which is growing our SOL per share through accretive capital allocation, generating consistent staking yields, and building out the revenue-generating business that is designed to drive long-term value creation. Staking remains one of the most important and differentiated aspects of our business. For the first quarter of 2026, our average net staking yield was 6.9%. This compares to the system-wide average of approximately 6.0% over the same period, representing outperformance of 90 basis points. This yield is generated through careful validator selection, active MEV capture, and continuous rebalancing. The same institutional approach that Pantera applies across its broader digital asset portfolio. Staking rewards are also automatically re-staked to compound returns, resulting in consistent daily on-chain revenue. Turning to capital markets.
We remain committed to capital allocation strategies that are accretive on a SOL per share basis, regardless of market conditions. When our stock traded at a discount to net NAV during periods of broader market weakness, we executed approximately three and a half million dollars in share repurchases during the first quarter and $5.0 million in share repurchases year to date under our previously announced repurchase program, as reflected in our treasury stock position. These repurchases were funded through strategic SOL sales at prices that were at a discount to our NAV per share at the time of repurchase, making them accretive to our NAV per share. At the end of April, we successfully completed a strategic capital raise of $8 million through a structured equity offering, a portion of which we deployed into SOL purchases at favorable entry points.
This capital raise was at a price of $2.60 per share, which at the time was roughly 1.1x NAV or multiple of NAV. The result immediately accretive to our SOL per share. This is the highest multiple of NAV capital raise of any Solana digital asset treasury that we know has completed since the beginning of the downturn in 2025. We believe this is our ability to do so is indicative of both industry factors, namely that the digital assets market has shown some signs of bottoming. As well as factors idiosyncratic to capital market participants recognizing and appreciating our relative execution.
We believe the ability to operate opportunistically on both sides of the capital structure, issuing our stock at a premium and buying back when trading at a discount, is a powerful mechanism for creating shareholder value across different market environments. As of March 31st, 2026, Solana Company held approximately $193.8 million of Solana across all categories, including liquid holdings, stake positions, and receivables, and $4.4 million of cash and cash equivalents. The company's diluted share count, including common shares and in-the-money warrants, was 82.5 million shares as of March 31st, 2026. As of May 12th, 2026, Solana Company held 2.37 million SOL tokens. The company's diluted share count, including common shares and in-the-money warrants, was 86.0 million shares. I will now turn the call over to Madelene Gani, our Chief Operating Officer and Deputy CFO, for the detailed financial results.
Thank you, Cosmo, and thank you, Joe, for the introduction. I'm thrilled to be joining Solana Company at such an extraordinary inflection point, and I'm honored to present our financial results for the first quarter of 2026. Our first quarter revenue was $3.6 million, consisting primarily of $3.4 million in staking revenue and $0.2 million in other revenue. This represents significant growth from the $49,000 in revenue recorded in the first quarter of 2025, which did not include contributions from our staking revenue attributable to our treasury strategy. Cost of revenue for the first quarter was $180,000, resulting in a gross profit of $3.4 million, compared to a gross loss of $72,000 in the prior year period. Cost of revenue increased primarily due to the increase in staking revenue-related costs.
General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2026 were $5.2 million, compared to $3.9 million in the first quarter of 2025. The increase reflects the expansion of operations associated with the company's digital asset treasury strategy. During the quarter, we recorded an unrealized loss on digital assets and digital assets receivable of approximately $89.2 million, reflecting the approximately 33% in SOL prices during the quarter. We also recorded a realized loss on capital and digital assets of $7 million related to strategic sales executed as part of our capital allocation program and an unrealized loss on our digital assets fund investment of $1.7 million due to the decline in the value of SOL. Total operating expenses for the first quarter were $103.1 million, compared to $3.9 million in prior year.
Operating expenses included non-cash charges of $89.2 million for unrealized loss on digital assets and digital asset receivable, $7 million for realized loss on digital assets related strategic sales executed as part of the company's capital allocation program, and $1.7 million for unrealized loss on digital assets fund investment due to the decline in value of SOL. The resulting loss from operations was $99.6 million, compared to a loss of $4 million for the prior year period. Non-operating expense for the quarter was $0.2 million, primarily attributable to dividend income earned on investments of excess cash in money market funds, offset by foreign exchange loss due to fluctuations in the Canadian to US dollar exchange rates, as compared to $0.2 million non-operating income for the prior year period.
We reported a net loss for the first quarter of 2026 of $99.8 million, or a loss of $1.3 per basic and diluted common share based on weighted average shares outstanding of 76.6 million. This compared to a net loss of $3.8 million or $382.29 per basic and diluted common share based on weighted average shares outstanding of 10,000 in the prior year period. As of March 31, 2026, we had total assets of $200.7 million, including $4.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, $21 million in current digital assets, and $172.8 million in long-term digital assets across various categories, including stake positions, restricted assets, receivables, and fund investments. During the quarter, we executed approximately $3.5 million in share repurchases during our previous authorized stock repurchase program, which are reflected in treasury stocks on our balance sheet. With that, I now hand it over to Joseph for closing remarks.
Thank you, Maddie. Well, again, thank you all for joining the Solana first quarter 2026 operating results update. We look forward to updating you on our progress again in the coming quarters. Operator, please open the call for questions.
Certainly. As a reminder, ladies and gentlemen, if you do have a question at this time, please press star one one on your telephone. Our first question comes from the line of Matthew Galinko from Maxim Group. Your question please.
Hey, thanks for taking my question. Maybe if we could talk about the flywheel that you discussed in the prepared remarks, maybe particularly around the advisory. Maybe touch on what sort of traction you have there, what level of engagement you have, and is there a revenue model there, or is it primarily just, you know, sort of engaging, you know, counterparties into the Solana ecosystem? Thanks.
Thank you, Matthew. I guess, since I talked about that, I'll address your question here. The answer comes directly, yes, it's supposed to be a revenue-generating business line. This advisory business actually work very closely with the Solana Foundation in targeting some of the major financial institutions and some tech corporates in the region. We are in the process of signing some contracts, which represent relatively significant revenues to us even for this year, and we expect to do that over time. A lot of financial institutions in this, in APAC are sort of coming from behind.
This whole trend of major banks, asset managers, different financial institutions in the U.S. either getting on their asset cash management products on chain and different kind of products as well. And also some of the getting onto stablecoin-based payments with the U.S. leading the way. Now there are a lot of institutions that haven't done much in the past, now have mandates from the top to get this thing done as soon as possible. A lot of them have not spent a lot of time understanding how to get that done, and they have some basic understanding. It comes to execution, project managing the whole thing based on the current timeline coming from the top, they need some help.
I think with us and the Solana Foundation in this part of the world, we are like the first, you know, first stop from the ask questions. I think that's a good time that we could to suggest that we could help them manage this and then charge them for managing the project.
All right. That's very helpful. Maybe just as my follow-up, I think currently you operate with a pretty lean structure, and so I'm wondering how you deliver those advisory services. To the extent that you're generating, you know, material revenue there, how do you think about the allocation of any cash flow you might begin to generate from those sorts of activities? Thanks.
Okay. Good question, Matthew. We are doing this very carefully. We do not want the, we're not gonna let costs, you know, lead the revenue per se, right? We, with the current team of, you know, two and a half people, we have hired the head of business development and advisory from Boston Consulting Group and a couple of juniors to get going. We believe that with the revenue that we're generating from the contracts, we can easily cover the cost that we just incurred on the human resources side. The additional revenue net of cost or cash flow net of cost will be used for to execute our strategy. The core one is still to purchase SOL.
Obviously, some of that will be, will be used to reinvest in some of the infrastructure that we need to build to provide more services to these clients or partners that we bring on board to generate more revenues on a recurring basis to Solana Company.
That's great. Thanks for the color. I'll jump back in the queue.
Thank you. Our next question comes from the line of Fedor Shabalin from B. Riley. Your question please.
Thank you very much, operator, and good afternoon, everyone. I have a first one on a specific backbone infrastructure. Can you tell us where we are with the validator infrastructure today versus where we were at the quarter end? Specifically, how much SOL is currently delegated to your, to the, if any? What's the stake run trajectory you're targeting over the next two, maybe or three quarters? Just how should we think about economic uplift from the Jito integration on MEV capture relative to the standard staking yield you're currently realizing?
Yeah. Fedor, thank you. Thank you for your question. Since we announced this two months ago, we have also mandated the same team which built out the advisory business to build the infrastructure for the validation business. We have put together a detailed execution plan. We are tracking quite well. The nodes that we are building, at the moment we are starting with three nodes, will be operational according to plan in late June. As on your question of how much SOL, especially third-party SOL that we will bring on board, we are still in the process of pitching. We already have some verbal commitments. At this stage, I probably cannot provide you with a projected number. Based on what we could see, it will be a fairly significant number that would add, you know, good revenues to our platform over time.
It is something that we want to build, not only to serve the clients that we would attract on our advisory services platform. For many of the larger players that have SOL at the moment, they're probably staking their SOL with some players, which are not structured the way we are structured. At the moment, we are structuring this as the highest-end, you know, top-quality institutional grade infrastructure, and we would have hired a certification engineer to make sure that all, the whole process front and back, will be properly certified, and will meet the requirements of the most demanding financial institution across APAC.
We believe that we can move some of the SOLs from some of the players which stake their SOL with other less smaller or less institutional grade players. We have high hope, Fedor, but I guess I will probably can only give you a more higher confidence guidance in the next quarter.
Thank you. That's super helpful. Another one is on how should I think about buybacks cadence going forward and overall Solana accumulation? Like, anything Should we expect something beyond staking revenue or in Solana tokens, I mean? Or at least at current MNAV level, you will, like, stick with staking only and will not pursue any external purchases of extra tokens?
Fedor, thank you. That's a good question. It's something we debate all the time. I think the right person to answer this question is Cosmo. Why don't I pass it on to Cosmo?
Hey, Fedor. Thanks for the question. As you can appreciate, we're constantly monitoring, or constantly having dialogues with capital providers to see where we can potentially raise capital in a creative way, which we were really excited to do this past quarter with major strategic investors in Asia. We're also, you know, evaluating when our stock trades below NAV, what we do with what we do in that case. You know, we're pretty proud of the fact that we are trading well above, you know, most of our peers and certainly the average of our peers as in terms of MNAV. That does mean that buybacks are less accretive for us than they are for some of our peers at this point because our, you know, our MNAV multiple has held up.
That does mean in which case it means, like, the capital markets window opens up a little bit more on the accumulation front as opposed to the buyback front. You know, I'm sure there will be volatility in our multiple as well as volatility in Solana, and we'll just try to make the best decision as we go forward. I would expect that at these levels, you know, that we're looking to raise capital accretively as opposed to buying back aggressively.
Thanks. Thanks for the color. I promise, my last one, it will be quick. It's on SG&A run rate going forward. Obviously, you're building infrastructure of the operating business you described in Asia. How should we think about this line item run rate from here? Is the one key reasonable jumping off point or maybe are there step ups we should model in 2Q and 3Q as you scale the business? Maybe, you know, headcount will grow from 2.5 to 3.5 or 4.5.
Fedor, I We don't have a set of, you know, board-approved numbers that we could disclose on this call to guide you on that. We could probably give you the thinking process behind it, so it might be helpful to you for on building out your model. What we're building here, including the validated infrastructure, first of all, we are building this in Asia, the kind of, you know, IT talent that you could hire for your money is, you know, versus the Western world, is night and day. Then, in terms of the third-party consultants that we can hire to, you know, to build out certain part of our infrastructure, that also come at a very low cost.
I don't think you should expect is very large CapEx going into this. It's all at a very, very low level. You're probably not even gonna notice it in the overall financial results. I mentioned at the end of my presentation that we have divested in the second quarter this year the medical device business PoNS. That will slow down after all the one time and everything else, and that's a serious step that we took to rationalize our cost base. That's all happening in the second quarter. For now, you would expect some pretty significant positive impact of that on our operation on a recurring basis going forward.
We can only talk about that in the second Q when the second Q results are available, and we do the next call. I think all in all in a way that I don't think you should be expecting a uptick in your cost. 2.5% to 3.5% to 4.5%, that would rely on the additional revenue, i.e. the contract we sign, rather than we could let the cost front run the revenue. I think that's sort of that's the principle that how we agreed to build out this business because we still want the investors that are investing in us, that getting access to Solana exposure, and they would not be, you know, piled on by additional costs that would skew their calculation.
That is super helpful. Thank you very much for all the color and continue and best of luck.
Thank you. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for your participation in today's question and answer session. This does conclude the question and answer session. I'd like to hand the program back to Joseph Chee for any further remarks.
Well, I guess, thank you for that. Again, thank you for joining us today on the call, and we look forward to updating you on our progress in the coming quarters. For some of you, if there are calls set up separately, happy to provide more colors in what's going on and what's going to happen. Thank you very much.
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for your participation in today's conference. This does conclude the program. You may now disconnect. Good day.

Solana Q4 Earnings Call Highlights
Executives said 2025 was “transformative” after closing a $500+ million PIPE and repositioning the company from a passive holder into a multifaceted platform focused on capital markets, digital-asset treasury management, and ecosystem marketing/partnerships to grow SOL per share. The company has staked substantially all of its SOL and reported staking outperformance (6.8% Q4 vs. 6.2% system average; 7.0% YTD 2026 vs. 6.0%), and management expects Anchorage/Kamino collaborations could add roughly 100–200 basis points of additional yield while deploying new strategies cautiously. Financials show Q4 revenue of $5.2 million (mostly staking) and FY2025 revenue of $6.0 million, offset by large non-cash operating losses that produced a $201.1 million Q4 operating loss but a $325.6 million Q4 net income driven by a $526.6 million fair-value gain on PIPE-related warrants, leaving a FY2025 net loss of $40.9 million. Interested in Solana Company? Here are five stocks we like better. Solana (NASDAQ:HSDT) executives on Monday highlighted what Executive Chairman Joseph Chee called a “transformative year” in 2025, underscored by the September closing of a $500+ million PIPE transaction and a shift from what he described as a passive holding structure to a “multifaceted platform” built around capital markets activity, digital asset treasury management, and ecosystem marketing and partnerships. Chee framed the company’s business model around three “distinct activities” intended to grow SOL per share and support the Solana ecosystem: capital markets, asset management, and marketing/partnership. → Down 25%, Chinese Giant PDD Could Be a Strong Long-Term Value On capital markets, Chee pointed to tools that include at-the-market (ATM) offerings, share buybacks, and operating businesses that “synergize directly” with the firm’s SOL holdings. On asset management, he emphasized accumulation of SOL and deploying capital in an accretive way on a per-share basis, including staking rewards and other on-chain yield opportunities. Chee also reviewed the company’s outreach efforts as a designated DAT partner to the Solana Foundation, particularly across Asia-Pacific, including participation in industry events such as Solana Breakpoint Abu Dhabi, Solana Accelerate Consensus Hong Kong, Hong Kong FinTech Week, TOKEN2049, GTC, and Japan Fintech Week.

Solana Company Q4 2025 Earnings Call Summary
Management characterized 2025 as a transformative year, shifting from a passive holding structure to a multifaceted platform with capital markets, asset management, and partnership 'legs'. Performance outperformance in staking was driven by a rigorous, non-passive approach involving validated selection, MEV optimization, and continuous rebalancing. The company achieved a 14% increase in SOL per share over the first six months of the strategy by actively managing both sides of the balance sheet through accretive issuance and buybacks. Strategic positioning is focused on the Asia-Pacific region, which management identifies as the world's largest crypto user base but significantly underserved by existing Solana infrastructure. The 'Pacific Backbone' initiative aims to establish a low-latency cluster across Seoul, Tokyo, Singapore, and Hong Kong to drive validation revenue and support institutional DeFi services. Management attributes their market leadership to institutional sponsorship and transparent reporting, which they believe separates them from weaker operators in the 'execution and consolidation' phase. The company plans to activate Pacific Backbone nodes immediately, with performance optimization scheduled for the second half of 2026 and product launches within 12 to 18 months. Management is evaluating a spectrum of capital formation alternatives including convertible debt, warrant-linked structures, and strategic M&A to optimize the cost of capital. The collaboration with Anchorage Digital and Kamino is expected to potentially drive an additional 100 to 200 basis points of yield across the asset base through on-chain borrowing. Future revenue growth is expected to stem from liquidity-related products, including liquid staking, AMM RPC, and execution services for institutional partners in Asia. Guidance assumes continued use of the ATM program when trading at a premium and share repurchases when trading at a discount to maintain per-share accretion. The fourth quarter included $178.3 million in non-cash unrealized losses on digital assets due to the decline in the value of SOL during the period. A significant $526.3 million non-operating gain was recorded from the change in fair value of derivative liabilities related to the September PIPE transaction warrants. SG&A expenses were elevated at $13 million due to one-time non-cash compensation and legal fe...

Thank you. Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to Solana Company's Q4 and Full Year 2025 Earnings Call. I'm Joseph Chee, the Executive Chairman of Solana Company, and I'm pleased to report on a transformative year for Solana and the shareholders. When we closed our $500+ million PIPE transaction in September 2025, we described it as a new beginning. Looking back over the full year, and particularly over the Q4, I believe we have validated the ambition with tangible results across every dimension of our strategy. Our digital treasury is larger, our advocacy is broader, our capital markets toolkit is more sophisticated, and we have expanded the business well beyond a passive holding structure into a multifaceted platform with distinct value-adding legs.
I'll speak to the strategic picture and then Cosmo Jiang, Director at the Solana Company, will take you through the operational and financial results. As we close out 2025, I want to walk through the three distinct activities that together define the foundation of the Solana Company and how each contributes to our goal of creating long-term shareholder value by growing Solana Company's SOL per share and contributing to the growth of Solana ecosystem. The first is capital markets. From our ATM programs and other offerings to share buybacks, to operating businesses that synergize directly with our SOL holdings and the broader Solana ecosystem. The second is asset management. The core accumulation of SOL and the disciplined deployment of capital to grow our holdings in a way that's accretive on a per share basis.
This includes staking yield, which is the on-chain income we generate by staking substantially all of our SOL. This is not passive. It requires rigorous validator selection, MEV optimization, and continuous rebalancing, and it produces a meaningful and growing revenue stream. Cosmo will speak to the specific APR we achieved in 2025 and year to date, 2026, and how that compares to public benchmarks. It also includes intelligent risk-adjusted deployment into other yield opportunities on Solana. We'll talk about our on-chain partnership with Anchorage and Kamino on this front later. The third is marketing and partnership. Our role as a designated DAT partner to the Solana Foundation, particularly in Asia-Pacific and the broader institutional outreach that has defined our public presence since launch.
This has included publishing educational content on Solana and DATs on our website, participating in prominent podcasts, engaging with local print and online media, and presenting at key ecosystem industry events, including Solana Breakpoint Abu Dhabi, Solana Accelerate Consensus Hong Kong, Hong Kong FinTech Week, TOKEN2049, GTC, Japan Fintech Week, among others. The company has also conducted investor roadshows and partnership meetings with Solana Foundation with a focus on under-penetrated Asian markets, including Mainland China, Japan, Hong Kong, and Singapore. In addition, the company has delivered educational presentations at Web3 and technology executive programs at leading universities and institutions, and made regular appearances on mainstream financial media outlets, including CNBC and Bloomberg.
We are also very active in engaging the bankers and research analysts of investment banks and brokers to promote coverage on Solana and Solana Company. The company also intends to establish a strategic partnership with major financial institutions across key markets, which may adopt Solana as their underlying blockchain to support payment and tokenization initiatives. In February, we announced a landmark collaboration with Anchorage Digital and Kamino, making HSCC the first digital asset treasury to enable borrowing against natively staked SOL held in qualified custody. This is the first of its kind tri-party custody model to access on-chain protocols on Solana. Under the structure, Anchorage Digital acts as a collateral manager for our natively staked SOL, allowing us to earn staking rewards while simultaneously unlocking borrowing power on Kamino, all while our assets remain in a segregated account at Anchorage Digital Bank, never leaving custody.
Anchorage Digital's Atlas collateral management system provides 24/7 automated oversight of loan-to-value ratios, orchestrate margin and collateral movements, and execute rules-based liquidations when required, giving us institutional-grade risk and compliance control alongside direct on-chain participation. Also in February, we announced the Pacific Backbone, a strategic roadmap to invest in a new low-latency cluster across the Asia-Pacific region, beginning with nodes connecting Seoul, Tokyo, Singapore and Hong Kong. This infrastructure buildup is designed to drive staking and validation, support ecosystem development in the region, and diversify our revenue streams. Asia-Pacific represent the majority of the world's crypto users and a substantial share of global cross-border payments and trading activities. Yet it remains significantly underserved by the Solana existing network infrastructure. The Pacific Backbone is our commitment to closing that gap.
We plan to begin activating nodes immediately, optimize performance, and adopt new technologies in the second half of 2026, and launch liquidity-related products and services within the next 12 to 18 months. The buildup is designed to serve market makers, high-frequency traders, exchanges, and traditional finance partners, and is expected to include DeFi, liquid staking, AMM, RPC, and execution services for institutional partners in the region. With that, I'll turn it over to Cosmo to elaborate on our treasury management and capital markets results and some of the key financials. Cosmo.
Thank you, Joe. Hello, everyone. I'm Cosmo Jiang, a director of Solana Company and general partner at Pantera Capital. Pantera has been the asset manager for Solana Company's digital asset treasury since the close of the PIPE transaction in September 2025, and I'm proud to report on a relatively strong first six months of operation. As I noted last quarter, we believe the genesis phase of the digital asset treasury market is over. The white space that we identified earlier in 2025 has been substantially filled. We're now squarely in the execution and consolidation phase, and I believe the Q4 validated that thesis. We've seen meaningful differentiation among DApps with stronger operators or those with institutional sponsorship, transparent reporting, and disciplined capital management starting to separate from the others.
We believe Solana Company is among that leading group, and the results we are reporting today, we believe, reflect that. Let me begin with staking, as it's one of the most important and differentiated aspects of our business. As of December 31, 2025, Solana Company had staked substantially all of its SOL holdings. For the Q4 of 2025, our internal calculations reflect an average net staking yield of 6.8%. This compares to the system-wide average of 6.2% using public benchmarking data from research provider Blockworks over the same time period, representing outperformance of nearly 60 basis points. Year to date in 2026, our internal calculations show our staking yield has been 7.0% APY compared to the system-wide average of 6.0%, continuing that same pattern of disciplined outperformance.
This staking yield is generated through careful validator selection, active MEV capture, and continuous rebalancing, the same institutional approach that Pantera applies across its broader digital asset portfolio. Staking rewards are automatically restaked to compound returns, and the result is consistent daily on-chain revenue that can fund the operations of the business and grow the company's SOL per share. As Joe mentioned, we have recently expanded our yield generation options through an announced collaboration with Anchorage Digital and Kamino, which provides institutional-grade infrastructure for both custody and on-chain borrowing. We're in the early stages of executing against this opportunity and believe it could have the potential to drive an additional 100-200 basis points of yield across our asset base. Turning to capital markets.
Different market environments and valuation paradigms provide different opportunities, and regardless, we plan to always pursue actions that are accretive on a per share basis. Since the launch of our digital asset treasury, we've been able to grow SOL per share through both share issuance as well as share buybacks. Early in the Q4, when our stock traded well above 1.0 times NAV, our ATM program was a useful tool for disciplined issuance. We raised over $29 million through the ATM program, with proceeds deployed primarily into SOL purchases. When the broader digital assets markets pulled back, we also saw our valuation multiple compress to below 1.0 times NAV, at which point share repurchases became an accretive option.
We have now executed over $3 million in share repurchases year to date under our buyback program adopted this past November, funded primarily by the sale of Solana at prices that were accretive to NAV per share. We believe the ability to operate on both sides of the capital structure, which means issuing when trading at a premium and buying back when trading at a discount, is what makes the ATM and buyback program together such a powerful toolkit to create shareholder value in almost any market environment for this business model. Looking ahead to 2026, we continue to evaluate the full spectrum of capital formation alternatives, including convertible debt, warrant-link structures and strategic M&A.
We're often in exploratory conversations with many different investors, ranging from retail brokerages to family offices, to strategic corporates, to institutional hedge funds and long-only funds, and we do welcome any shareholder feedback and referrals. Next, our treasury. As of December 31st, 2025, Solana Company held 2.36 million SOL tokens and $7 million of cash and stablecoins. The company's diluted share count, including common shares and in-the-money warrants, was 84.1 million shares. As of March 27th, 2025, Solana Company held 2.33 million SOL tokens. The company's diluted share count, including common shares and in-the-money warrants, was 82.6 million shares. That means that in the six months since the beginning of embarking on our digital asset treasury strategy on September 18, we've actually increased our SOL per share by 14%.
This is measured using the value of the capital raised divided by the price of SOL and the diluted share count at transaction close compared to the March 27 figures just mentioned. We are proud of that meaningful per share accretion from our active management. I will now turn the call over to Jeff Mathiesen for the financial results.
Thank you, Cosmo Jiang. Our financial results reflect our full Q4 of DAT operations, and the full year ended December 31st, 2025. Our Q4 revenue of $5.2 million included staking revenue of $5.1 million, comprising the majority of the increase from the prior year period. For the full year 2025, total revenue was $6 million, including $5.5 million of staking revenue, compared to $0.5 million for the full year 2024. For the Q4, cost of revenue was $0.2 million, in line with the prior year period.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the Q4 of 2025 were $13 million, compared to $2.2 million reported in the Q4 of 2024, due primarily to increased non-cash compensation costs, salaries and wages, digital asset management and custodian fees, as well as legal and professional fees in conjunction with the addition of the company's DAT strategy. Research and development expenses were $0.9 million, in line with the prior year period. Total operating expenses for the Q4 of 2025 were $206.1 million compared to $3.1 million in the Q4 of 2024.
Operating expenses included non-cash charges of $178.3 million of unrealized loss on digital intangible assets and digital assets receivable, $12.1 million for realized loss on digital intangible assets, and $2.1 million for unrealized loss on digital assets on investment due to the decline in the value of SOL. The resulting loss from operations for the Q4 of 2025 was $201.1 million, compared to a loss of $3.1 million in the prior year period.
Current year non-operating income for the Q4 was $526.6 million and included a $526.3 million gain from the change in fair value of derivative liability related to the stapled warrants from the September PIPE transaction, compared to non-operating loss of $0.8 million in the prior year period, comprised mostly of foreign exchange loss. We reported net income for the Q4 of 2025 of $325.6 million, or earnings of $4.25 per basic and diluted common share, based on weighted average shares outstanding of 76.6 million. We had a net loss of $3.9 million in the prior year period, or a loss of $793.01 per basic and diluted share.
For the full year 2025, we reported a net loss of $40.9 million or a loss of $1.85 per basic and diluted common share based on weighted average shares of 22.0 million, compared to a net loss of $11.7 million.
a loss of $3,282.26 per basic and diluted common share for the full year 2024. At December 31, 2025, we had $7.3 million in cash and approximately $293.7 million of digital assets, comprised of $217.7 million in digital intangible assets, $70.4 million in digital assets receivable, and $5.6 million in digital assets fund investment, for a combined total approximately $301 million. Total assets were $303 million, and total shareholders' equity was $300.9 million at year-end. With that, operator, let's now open the call up for questions.
Certainly. As a reminder, to ask a question, please press star one one on your telephone and wait for your name to be announced. To withdraw your question, please press star one one again. Please stand by while we compile our Q&A roster. Our first question will be coming from Fedor Shabalin of B. Riley. Your line is open, Fedor.
Thank you very much, operator. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for the update. I just have a couple of questions. First one is on ATM and buybacks. Beyond these two tools and the stake in yield compounding organically, what incremental capital rising structures are you actively evaluating? That's maybe specifically SOL collateralized term lending beyond the Kamino facility or maybe structured equity products on the table. And how do you think about the accretion model for each relative to the dilution cost of the ATM at current levels? Thank you.
Cosmo, looks like a question for you.
Yeah. Thanks, Fedor, for the question. You know, we're thinking pretty broadly about what the capital markets opportunities are to us. We're trying to optimize for the lowest cost of capital that we can get. Clearly when our stock is trading below one times NAV, we think share buybacks are a pretty powerful tool to accrete value per share for our shareholders. We have an outstanding share buyback program that we'll continue to pursue. At the same time, there are interesting ways where we can raise additional capital in a prudent way as long as it is, you know, accretive to our shareholders.
You know, some of the options that are out there that we've seen some of our competitors do include things like convertible debt with high strike warrants, or high strike warrants, you know, structured equity notes with where the common is being sold above NAV, potentially with additional kickers above NAV, as well as the preferred equity options. You know, we're evaluating all these. It really comes down to where we think we can get the best terms and where the market is. It does seem like that there is appetite to do things, but you guys will know when we actually do execute.
We are going to be focused on, to the extent that we are, you know, selling our volatility via warrants, that we are selling volatility at a price that makes sense. We do think there's a, you know, a reasonable world where we can continue to sell our volatility and do so via either convertible debt or equity structured equity.
Thank you very much for the color. That's helpful. My second one, Cosmo, probably for you again. In your press release, your quote references pursuing highly selective strategic capital markets transactions to advance the company's objectives. Can you help me understand what highly selective actually means in practice? The company has already launched the Kamino Finance borrowing structure and the new, recently announced Pacific Backbone structure initiative. Does strategic capital markets transactions refer to new instruments like tokenized equity through Superstate's Opening Bell, Solana-denominated convertible structures, or potentially mergers with complementary DOT vehicles?
Given that Solana Company's fully diluted share count moved a little bit by late March through warrant exercises and buyback, what is the internal hurdle rate or Solana per share accretion test the transaction must clear before you would proceed in current environment? Thank you very much.
Fedor, it's Joseph Chee here. Maybe I'll start with one point, and then I think you have kind of, like, multiple questions buried in one question. I guess when we talk about highly selective strategic, it is like Cosmo said, it's important that we raise capital at the right level so that it's accretive to for our shareholders. But at the same time, one important consideration that we bear in mind is also to bring in like high-quality strategic investors. Not only they would, you know, their name on our share register, which means, you know, something to the market, would actually promote the credibility and reputation of the firm.
Also, I think some of the strategic investors may work with us on some of the strategic business build-out or opportunities. They might be someone that is very close to the Solana ecosystem. I think part of this.
Statement here. When they say highly selective strategic capital market transaction, it also means optimizing the shareholder register and bringing some of the good investors onto register to help us grow and also to get them onto the Solana ecosystem. We're going to build out their businesses on the blockchain, right? Then I guess for the rest of the question that talks about hurdle rates and things like that, I'll leave that to Cosmo.
Thanks, Joe. Fedor, again, great question. I would say, I apologize, pre-apologize for this. It is dependent on what the market will give us. You know, there's our controllables that we can control, and then there's the uncontrollables that are out of our hands. From a controllable perspective, I hope you can trust me when I say that we are aggressively looking at anything under the sun that is reasonable. Now all the options are out there. We're talking to existing investors that have been with us for a long time.
We're talking to new investors who are looking at DATS, who have been looking at DATS for a long time or even new investors that have not looked at DATS, but are looking for Solana exposure in a alpha generative way. We're talking to all these folks about what kinds of things make the most sense for them. There is a little bit of a when you talk about accretion, different structures can be accretive on different time horizons as well, right? There are some transaction structures where it maybe looks a little less accretive near term, but it's actually very accretive long term, especially when you think about the strategic benefits it might bring to us, some of which Joseph Chee just mentioned.
I think the other, you know, color I would give you is that, you know, we are active repurchasers of our stock, and I'd say that is, you know, that continues to be an interesting avenue. You know, if someone were to do the math, they would be able to get to, probably something like, you know, double-digit type accretion that we're targeting. That said, there's always opportunity to do things for less than that, with less accretion than that. You know, I am very proud to say that we are managing both the asset side of the balance sheet as well as the liability side of the balance sheet.
You know, the asset side, which means buying things well, finding opportunities to acquire Solana in interesting ways beyond just buying spot Solana. The liability side, all the capital markets transactions we've been talking about. In aggregate, in the six months since we've started doing this, you know, I would say it's pretty compelling that we've been able to grow Solana per share by 14%, all right, over six months. Now, I'm definitely not saying that that is what we will do going forward or necessarily that the market will present opportunities for us to do that. You know, at least since inception to date of this strategy, we're pretty happy about those results.
Okay. That's clear. Thank you very much. Thank you very much for your color, and continued best of luck.
Our next question will be coming from the line of Matthew Galinko of Maxim Group. Your line is open, Matthew.
Hey. Appreciate you taking my questions. You touched on the, I guess the DATS space entering consolidation phase. Just hoping maybe you could go a little bit deeper into how you see that playing out and, you know, over what timeframe we might see consolidation, particularly in the SOL DATS. Thanks.
Thank you, Matthew. Looks like you have. Yeah, I guess your question is actually for Cosmo as well. Cosmo?
Yeah. It's a great question. Look, I wear a few hats. One is certainly as director of HSDT and the other is, you know, as an investor at Pantera Capital, where we've invested in many of these DATS. I think you'll realize that a lot of these DATS were formed, you know, not so long ago, right? I'm realizing that now it's almost exactly the one-year anniversary of when I decided to kick off investing in these digital asset treasuries, and which really kicked off the boom in the DATS space, almost exactly a year ago, today.
You know, a lot of these companies and management teams have only been at it for at most a year, which was an early one, or more likely, you know, three to six months. As you would expect, many of these people who came in with the right intentions still believe they have the right to win. It's going to take some time for some management teams to realize they either are not going to make it or they need to throw in the towel. That takes some time for people to come to that realization. That's one thing to think about. The other is, you know, strategically, it has to be a good fit, and culturally, it has to be a good fit.
It takes two to tango ultimately with consolidation. You know, to date, we've only seen one instance of DATS consolidation in the Bitcoin space. We haven't seen anything else. I think it's the easiest way to consolidate is certainly Solana DATS to Solana DATS. It is possible that we see, you know, acquisition opportunities of other assets and certainly of other asset DATS that could be accretive, even if they're acquired by a Solana DATS. We're looking, we're considering things pretty widely, but it does take two to tango. It does take a management team that's willing to realize that the right path forward is consolidation.
Then just as importantly, there is the concept of, you know, whether it's accretive enough. You know, while the math is kind of tricky, while everyone trades below 1x NAV, there are ways to structure it, and we don't want to give away all the capital markets special sauce that we're working on. There are interesting things that we can do. We're working through that and hopefully there's something to do eventually, but unfortunately nothing to report today. Great. That's super helpful. Appreciate it and look forward to seeing where that goes. My follow-up question just on, I guess, a cleanup on a model. Your SG&A was about $13 million in the Q4.
I'm just curious if that's a good number to use as the run rate, you know, on a GAAP basis in 2026, or is that a little bit inflated for kind of the early stages of, you know, operating through the DAT launch? Thanks.
Again, thank you for the questions. I think it's probably a question that our CFO, Jeff, should answer. Jeff?
Are you able to hear me?
Now I can, yes.
Okay. All right. What we talked about was the, you know, non-cash compensation expense that came in during the quarter. Also, you know, we had higher run rate for legal and professional fees as we were setting up this new business for us. As we get moving forward, some of that should come out of our future costs. Obviously, it's going to somewhat fluctuate as, you know, we do, you know, some of the business, but I would say for the most part, Q4 was higher than what you'd expect to see.
Thank you.
Our next question will be coming from the line of Bill Papanastasiou of Chardan Capital Markets. Your line is open.
Yeah. Good evening, gentlemen. Thank you for taking my questions. For the first one, apologize if I missed this, but just clarification. Is the Anchorage collaboration active today? Are you able to share how that's going in the early days and what kind of institutions you're seeing the most demand from using this product, or which ones you plan on targeting first? Thanks.
No worries, Bill. You didn't miss anything. Cosmo?
Bill, thanks for dialing in. The Anchorage partnership is still. We're still working out the kinks. You know, we're pretty excited to deploy, but we want to do so in a risk managed way and in a way that makes sense. We anticipate that being relatively soon, but it has not yet taken off. I would say that, you know, some of the most interesting opportunities that exist on Kamino today relate to some of their private credit yields, or rather, relate to their more housing-backed financing opportunities such as SolanaPrime, which yields in the 7%+ range, or some of the other stablecoin yields, which are in the 6%+ range.
You know, we believe we're able to borrow closer to 3% to 4% to be able to pursue those opportunities, and so that is a really interesting spread. Now we want to do so, again, in a risk managed and controlled way, but we do think that that is available to us, and we feel pretty good about about the capacity of those opportunities. You know, as the first ones to really do this, we anticipate that other people will want to follow and will likely follow in our footsteps. We certainly welcome that for the growth of the Solana ecosystem.
We're doing this as much for, you know, growing our actual yield that we can generate at Solana, as well as to make sure that the underlying Solana token, which we believe in and are invested in, also increases in value as we participate in the ecosystem and encourage others to participate. Right now we haven't seen a lot of other institutions start to deploy yet in Solana DeFi. I think a big piece of that is the regulatory clarity. People are looking for market structure legislation to pass in order to come into DeFi in a much bigger way. When we do, we believe the on-chain yield available to us on Solana could actually increase in addition to capacity increasing.
We're excited about that opportunity in the medium term horizon.
Great. Appreciate that color. And then one last question, if I may. Kind of just a high-level one on the Solana ecosystem. You know, taking a step back and looking at the landscape, obviously there's a lot of excitement with tokenization of real-world assets and bringing TradFi markets on-chain. Perhaps you can just provide your view on where Solana sits in all of this and, you know, how you see it competing with the other networks that are going after similar markets.
Cosmo, do you want to go first? I'll supplement.
Yeah, happy to.
Yep.
Look, Bill, thank you so much for asking that. I mean, as much as an investment in Solana Company is about, you know, investing in our management team's ability to execute against this plan and grow Solana for sure in an effective way. You know, the most important piece of that function is certainly Solana itself, the SOL itself and its value growth. You know, this really comes back to why we are so excited about pursuing a Solana-based digital asset treasury. Because one of the areas that we're seeing really finding product-market fit right now across blockchain technology is this concept of real-world assets, tokenization, and everything that you can do with that when you put it into DeFi.
Solana is very well positioned because Solana's speed, low fees, broad retail and institutional distribution make it one of the most compelling networks for RWA tokenization. Solana is the number three blockchain for RWAs, with $1.7 billion on chain, and the number two network for tokenized stocks with over $260 million of value locked. According to Blockworks Research, Solana has facilitated almost 98% of tokenized equity spot volume by blockchain, showing that Solana is actually, you know, while it may be the second or third place for a number of assets, is actually the chain where assets actually move and are traded. The top three contributors to Solana's RWA TVL are BlackRock products, their tokenized treasuries, Prime, which is issued by Figure Markets and asset-backed credit, and Ondo's US Treasuries.
There's a growing roster of institutional partnerships already live on the network from Apollo Global Management and their tokenized private credit fund to Janus Henderson Investors and their two tokenized funds on Solana or VanEck's Treasury Fund or Franklin Templeton's money market fund. We really look forward to seeing the continued traction from these asset issuers as well as new issuers and new products as the RWA tokenization market matures.
Thanks, Cosmo. Bill, I guess, just to add on to that, right? I think I've been asked that question many times, whether it's we get various functions and dinners and seminars, right? Like, all of the RWA that you get onto the chain, where's the liquidity coming from? That's probably the biggest question mark for most people around the world. Let's say you have another 10 trillion of assets coming on chain. Who's buying it? We think that a lot of this liquidity that we're buying this on-chain asset is sort of an accumulation of stablecoins and crypto-based payments mainly from cross-border payments. A lot of that probably has to do with trade over time. I mean, in various functions we did talk about this.
I think as you could see that last year, the broad numbers, the stablecoin payments are ready to hit something like over $30 trillion, right? A lot of this, I think over time, they will stay in the form of crypto instead of turning back to fiat. If you think about, you know, Solana, especially if you think about the export and cross-border trade, a big part of it has to do with Asia, China being one of them, the markets that's very export led. As you know, for all these cross-border trading companies, manufacturing companies, speed and certainty, you know, lowering the FX risk is important, but cost is also very important. Then you can see all that sort of point towards Solana.
That's why we're also spending quite a bit of work in different parts of Asia especially. There are a lot of import-export trade and a lot of cross-border payments. We believe that Solana probably will be one of the main blockchain, if not the blockchain to use, for a lot of these cross-border payments.
Great. Thank you for all the color.
I would now like to turn the call back to Joseph Chee for closing remarks.
Thank you. Thank you all for joining Solana Company's Q4 FY 2025 operating results update, and thanks for all the good questions.

With that, I would now like to turn the call over to Solana Company's Executive Chairman, Joseph Chi. Thank you.
Good morning, everyone, and welcome to our first earnings call since we successfully raised over $500 million to fund our digital asset treasury strategy in September. I'm Joseph Chi, the Executive Chairman of Solana Company. I'm honored and pleased to be able to work with the capable board of directors and team closely since my appointment. Additionally, since 2017, I have served as the founder and chairman of Summit Capital, one of the earliest licensed funds in Asia that invest in the crypto blockchain sector. One of the co-sponsors for the PIPE transaction and now one of two strategic advisers to Solana Company. The Solana digital edge rate digital treasury strategy and the PIPE transaction mark a new beginning for Solana Company as its shareholders. Pantera Summer is committed to providing strategic support to accelerate the growth of the company going forward. The US dollar's $120 million investment by Pantera is the single largest cash investment in Pantera history. Pantera, together with Summer Capital and its ecosystem partners, accounted for roughly half of the total capital raised, underscoring their conviction in Solana Company's strategy and long-term potential, and the company's commitment to deliver results. I believe the background experience that Pantera and Summer give HSCT both global reach and institutional credibility. Since the closing of the PIPE transaction, we are now squarely focused on executing our digital asset treasury strategy. We aim to incorporate all of the learnings from our strategic investors about what has worked well, and what hasn't worked to really hone the plan. As we look forward, there are three pillars of execution we are focused on: advocacy, capital markets, and treasury management. First, let's talk about advocacy. Our goal is to maximize shareholder value and we believe we can do so through maximizing Solana per share accumulation. One key underlying assumption here is that Solana itself is worthy of investment. Therefore, our number one job is advocating for Solana or telling the Solana story to help investors understand why Solana is a compelling asset. Solana has become the most widely adopted and financially productive blockchain in the world. It now processes close to 80 million transactions per day with a median fee below one-tenth of a cent and provides a native staking yield of more than 7%. That combination of throughput, affordability, and productivity is why we believe Solana is the only blockchain that's both economically sustainable and institutionally relevant. We see that in the numbers, Solana is the number one chain in decentralized exchange volumes, the leading platform for stablecoin payments through integration with PayPal and Stripe, and one of the fastest-growing ecosystems for real-world asset tokenization with activities from firms like BlackRock, Franklin Templeton, and Apollo. It is definitely one of the most secure and decentralized blockchains built for institutional adoption. Our focus at HSDG has been on advocating for Solana matters not only to the crypto-native community but also to mainstream and traditional financial institutions globally. We believe this broader audience will ultimately determine which assets are relevant. As part of the effort, we have been productive in reaching outside of the crypto echo chamber and bringing Solana's story to the institutional world. Since our launch, HSDD has already appeared more than 10 times on main media such as CNBC and Bloomberg, helping bridge the conversation between traditional equity investors and the Solana ecosystem. Our adviser, Dan Moorhead, my partner, Cosmo Zhang, and I have been actively participating in media interviews, podcasts, relevant conferences, and events to promote Solana Company and its underlying assets not only in the US and UK but also in Asia and the Middle East. We and the Solana Company were featured in many local print and digital press in the regions mentioned. Each of these opportunities reinforces our central message: Solana's speed, cost efficiency, and real-world adoption make it one of the most credible and investable assets in our industry worldwide. Since we are the designated DAT to support Solana Foundation APAC region, we have traveled with the Solana Foundation senior management to Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, Hong Kong, and Singapore in the last two months. By organizing and attending multiple conferences, panels, and gatherings intensively over a few weeks, we have managed to reach out to thousands of people, including developers, investors, universities, research institutions, regulators, and industry partners, including major tech companies, to advocate for the Solana blockchain ecosystem. The enthusiastic participation on location and the conversations we had with the local communities made us realize that Asia is probably the single largest underpenetrated market with the highest potential for Solana. We believe it also has the largest population of keen users, developers, tech companies, and entrepreneurs ready to embrace the high-performance Solana blockchain. This outreach is translating into results. Trading volume in HSCT has meaningfully outperformed the average of peer DATs, including other Solana DATs, reflecting a growing awareness of Solana's fundamental confidence in a DAT model. We view this as an early indicator that our advocacy strategy is working, and investors are starting to view HSTT as the public gateway to Solana. As we committed to the investors during the fundraising process for the PIPE transaction, we have been focused on running the business with best market practices and the highest level of governance, diligence, and care. Cosmo will go through the outstanding results we achieved with the instantaneous activation of the ATM for fundraising, the tactical approach to Solana accumulation, and the rigor and discipline we apply through staking. We believe Pantera as the asset manager has delivered stellar results all around since we started with a new strategy. Just to reiterate, we are attempting to build a Berkshire Hathaway of the Solana ecosystem that compounds shareholder value and trades at a premium with a strong balance sheet, a clear strategy, and the expertise of a team that's experienced with DATs and is shareholder aligned with meaningful ownership. With that, I will turn it over to Cosmo to elaborate more on our strategy in Capital Markets and treasury management, and let's take a closer look at our third-quarter financials.
Thank you, Joseph. I'm Cosmo Jiang, a Director for Solana Company and General Partner at Pantera Capital. Pantera brings deep experience as a digital asset specialist investment firm. Pantera was the first blockchain-dedicated institutional investment firm starting in 2013. Pantera anchored the first deals that catalyzed the digital asset treasury boom earlier this year, including coining the term DAT or debt. And as such, have unmatched experience in digital asset treasuries as well as the U.S. Capital markets broadly. I will now discuss the market environment and our launch progress. Now let me take a step back. It is important to acknowledge the broader market backdrop. Over the past several months, the digital asset treasury market has cooled after a period of rapid expansion earlier in the year. That is not unexpected. From an investor's lens, when I think back to what I mapped out as the white space roughly six months ago, now in our view, much of that white space has been taken. We just witnessed the creation of a whole new category of businesses over the last seven months, and the creation of a new category can only happen once. I believe this initial genesis phase of new dApps being launched is now largely over. Now that we see the white space as largely taken, we believe the industry is entering the execution and consolidation phase. The barriers to entry are a lot higher now for new entrants. Most DATs will be outcompeted and have uninteresting outcomes, ultimately resulting in healthy industry consolidation. We at Solana Company anticipate that this will be where the strongest DATs will prove themselves out and win out through operational excellence and capital discipline. We believe the best DATs can be amazing long-term outcomes for both shareholders and token holders. Those with credible management teams, transparent reporting, and durable token per share growth. We believe we have the ingredients to do so here at Solana Company. Our balance sheet strength, institutional sponsorship, and operational focus give us the foundation to continue building even in a more selective environment. As part of the company's continued commitment to maximize SOL per share through disciplined execution of its digital asset treasury strategy, including capital deployment, active on-chain management, and transparent reporting, Solana Company has increased its holdings of SOL by $100,000 or $100,000 in the first month of operation to a total of over 2,300,000 tokens. The company also still holds $9,800,000 of cash and stablecoins, which it intends to use to further the digital asset treasury. For the month of October, the company's average gross staking yield was 7.3% APY. This performance was approximately 36 basis points better than the 6.67% APY stake-weighted average of the top 10 largest validators over the same period. Solana Company's SOL holdings are primarily through institutional-grade validator infrastructure with rewards automatically restaked to compound returns. This staking yield translates to consistent daily on-chain revenue generation while preserving full liquidity and custody of underlying assets. Let me elaborate on the next two of our execution pillars, capital markets and treasury management. Capital market strategy is one of our pillars for execution, a driver of Solana per share growth. The objective is straightforward: to maximize tokens per share, disciplined capital formation, and balance sheet management. We are focused on ensuring that every financing decision, whether equity or equity-linked, is structured to be accretive, meaning it increases the number of SOL per share for our existing shareholders. As mentioned earlier, we have launched our ATM program and recently also announced a share buyback. The ATM is an important tool for a DAT. It allows us to access liquidity continuously and on efficient spreads rather than relying on episodic and uncertain capital raises. The buyback is an important complement. Whether we are trading at a premium or a discount to MNAV, we now have the flexibility to act in ways that maximize Solana per share growth. When we trade above our NAV, the ATM allows us to issue accretively. When we trade below NAV, we can use other tools such as share buybacks. Beyond that, we are evaluating structured equity transactions including convertible debt and warrant-linked financings that could provide flexible, non-dilutive growth capital while monetizing Solana's inherent volatility. Finally, we are open to participating in M&A within the DAT ecosystem. As we move from the launch phase of the market into the execution phase, we believe consolidation will naturally occur. HSCT is well-positioned to be an acquirer where it makes strategic sense, particularly in cases where smaller DATs trade below 1x MNAS and can be integrated accretively. Now to treasury management. As the asset manager, Pantera's expertise is really helpful here. That experience is already reflected in our execution. On our Solana purchases, we have been deliberate and data-driven. Our average cost basis is approximately $220 per SOL, to about $240 at launch, representing roughly a 10% improvement versus a passive approach. On the validator side, we've also been disciplined in how we stake. In October, as mentioned above, we outperformed our peers, and that comes from careful validator selection, MED capture, and continuous rebalancing. We believe that is a meaningful amount of outperformance versus what any individual investor may be able to achieve, and even many other publicly traded Solana DATs. Looking ahead, DeFi yield opportunities are on our roadmap, but only where we can identify risk-adjusted returns that make sense. We are carefully evaluating counterparty, smart contract, and regulatory risks before deployment. The goal is not to chase yield, it is to grow tokens per share in a sustainable, risk-controlled way. We believe through this approach of disciplined accumulation, active validator management, and selective yield enhancement, we are building a treasury that compounds value per share, not just one that holds tokens passively. I would now like to turn the call over to Dane Andreeff for updates on the company's legacy business, its orally applied technology platform.
Thank you, Cosmo. At its core, the company was founded as a neurotechnology company dedicated to addressing neurologic deficits through its innovative orally applied technology platform. This proprietary platform enhances the brain's ability to activate physiologic compensatory mechanisms, promoting neuroplasticity and improving the lives of individuals with neurological conditions. The company's first commercial product, the portable neuromodulation stimulator, or PoNS, exemplifies its mission to advance neurorehab through science and technology. The company has made some exciting progress over the past quarter, both clinically and strategically. The PoNS stroke registration program study was successfully executed, resulting in positive clinical outcomes. The successful results of the stroke registrational program supported our PoNS device submission for FDA 510(k) designation filed under its current FDA breakthrough device designation. Statistical analysis for the functional gait assessment primary endpoints demonstrated PoNS' superior effectiveness in improving gait deficit by achieving a clinically meaningful mean improvement compared to the control group, reflecting the clinical significance of this therapeutic intervention. In the third quarter, we have seen increased US activity, including increased VA and cash sales. This has been supplemented by additional out-of-network third-party reimbursement. We are happy with the progress made at Healius this quarter and would like to reiterate our excitement that this strategic evolution represents Healius' next chapter as Solana Company. By aligning its corporate strategy with the Solana Foundation and the broader Solana community, Solana Company positions itself at the intersection of breakthrough neuroscience and digital asset innovation, uniting two powerful platforms for sustainable growth and technological progress. I'm excited for the future of Solana. Now I would like to turn the call over to Jeff to cover the financial results.
Thank you, Dane. Our financial results include the $500 plus million PIPE transaction that closed on September 18, 2025, and related DAT activities from that date through the end of the quarter. Our third-quarter revenue of $697,000 included first-time staking rewards income of $342,000, comprising the majority of the increase from the prior year period. For the third quarter, the cost of revenue was $103,000 compared to $187,000 for the prior year period, mainly due to decreased inventory reserve and production scrap expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expenses for 2025 were $4,600,000 compared to the $2,900,000 reported in 2024, with the increase comprised of a $101,500,000 discretionary bonus in the current year. Research and development expenses for 2025 were $900,000 compared to $1,100,000 in 2024, driven primarily by reduced clinical trial activities. Unrealized loss on digital assets of $30,500,000 resulted from the net change in fair value of digital assets held by the company as of quarter-end. Total operating expenses for 2025 were $36,000,000 compared to $3,900,000 in 2024. The resulting loss from operations for the third quarter of 2025 was $35,400,000 compared to a loss of $4,100,000 for the prior year period. The current year non-operating loss in the third quarter of $317,300,000 included a $545,700,000 loss on derivative liability attributable to the valuation of the staples warrants from the September PIPE transaction and $194,700,000 of financing costs from the September PIPE transaction, including a $171,300,000 non-cash charge from the advisory warrants issued and an $8,600,000 non-cash charge for shares issued to Clear Street, offset by a $423,300,000 gain from the change in fair value of the derivative-related derivative liability from those stapled warrants as of September 30, 2025. We reported a net loss for 2025 of $352,800,000 or a loss of $32.89 per share. We had a net loss of $3,700,000 in the prior year period or a loss of 744.35¢ per basic and diluted common share. At September 30, 2025, we had $124,000,000 in cash and $350,200,000 of digital assets at fair value for a combined total of $474,200,000. Also at that date, we had a combined total of 75,900,000 common shares and prefunded warrants outstanding. Finally, as of November 17, 2025, certain provisions of the 2025 stapled warrants related to adjustments of the Black-Scholes inputs in determining the warrant value in the event of a fundamental transaction were amended. I'll now hand it over to the operator for questions.
Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, as a reminder to ask a question, please press 11 on your telephone, then wait for your name to be announced. To withdraw your question, please press 11 again. I'm showing no questions in the queue. I would now like to turn the call back over to Joseph for closing remarks.
Well, thank you all for joining the Solana Company third-quarter operating results update. We are pleased by the strategic change and progress we have made this quarter and look forward to sharing further updates next quarter. Thank you.
Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes today's conference call. Thank you for your participation. You may now disconnect.
