Positive Sentiment: Executed multiple capital actions — private placements, a $36 million in‑kind convertible note and a subsequent cash offering — reportedly at or above NAV, became S‑3 shelf‑eligible, and announced a $50 million share repurchase program. Negative Sentiment: Management highlighted sector‑wide multiple compression and oversupply (over 200 Treasury Companies), which has depressed valuations and contributed to Upexi trading at discounts to NAV. Neutral Sentiment: Treasury composition as of Dec 31 included roughly 2.17 million SOL (publicly referenced ~2.4M after raises), ~95% staked, ~106k tokens added in the quarter, and about $9.7 million cash on hand. Positive Sentiment: Strategy priorities are accretive growth and raising low‑risk, recurring Treasury yield (off‑chain approaches, hedging, discounted locked‑token purchases) with a yield product targeted for rollout in Q2 to boost cash flow and valuation potential.

Please note, this event is being recorded. I would now like to turn the conference over to Valter Pinto, Managing Director at KCSA Strategic Communications. Please go ahead. Valter PintoManaging Director at KCSA Strategic Communications00:00:21Thank you, Operator. Good evening and welcome, everyone, to the Upexi Fiscal Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results Conference Call. I'm joined today by Allan Marshall, Chief Executive Officer; Andrew Norstrud, Chief Financial Officer; and Brian Rudick, Chief Strategy Officer. Before we begin, I'm going to remind everyone that statements made during today's conference call may be deemed forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Safe Harbor of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ materially due to a variety of risks, uncertainties, and other factors. For a detailed discussion of some of the ongoing risks and uncertainties in the company's business, I'll refer you to the press release issued this evening and filed with the SEC on Form 8-K, as well as the company's reports filed periodically with the SEC. Valter PintoManaging Director at KCSA Strategic Communications00:01:06The company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, unless otherwise required by law. In addition, during the course of the call, we may refer to non-GAAP financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and they may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are contained in our earnings release issued this evening, unless otherwise noted. I'd now like to turn the call over to Upexi CEO Allan Marshall. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:01:46Thank you, Valter, and welcome to our Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Conference Call. I'm happy to review our results and discuss why, despite the difficult market backdrop, I remain extremely optimistic for the future and why we remain well-positioned to win. The market presented two key challenges for us last quarter, with both declining asset prices and treasury company multiple compression. This was reflected in our quarterly results as well as in our stock price. I'll discuss each in succession. On the former, the price of Solana fell 40% during the quarter, and it has fallen a further 31% since the quarter end. While there have been many reasons cited, including rising geopolitical risks, precious metals stealing the show, and many more, the fact of the matter is the biggest determinant of any treasury company success has and always will be the performance of its underlying token. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:02:39Thus, we were not immune, and Solana's performance had a big impact on the company. That said, I remain encouraged for three key reasons. The first is, given their nascency, such volatility is normal with digital assets, and Solana often exhibits large movements in both directions along a significant uptrend over time. Second, as Brian will discuss in more detail, the underlying fundamentals for Solana continue to improve as global finance moves on-chain. Here I'm particularly optimistic because, over time, price follows fundamentals, and improving fundamentals against a falling price is a recipe for greater potential upside. Lastly, as a treasury company, we have multiple mechanisms not available to native tokens or ETFs that can create value for shareholders, like accretive issuance and discounted locked token purchases. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:03:32We have, in the past, and aim to, in the future, increase our Solana per share to help offset any decline in token price or to add to any increase in price in an upmarket. So overall, between the volatility being expected, a positive view for potential Solana price appreciation, and our ability to increase Solana per share, we remain positive about the opportunity and continue to believe 2026 will be a strong year for Solana and Upexi. The second key challenge during the quarter was general multiple compression in the treasury space. We believe this was due to the law of supply and demand. With over 200 treasury companies, it is not hard to see why many are trading at discounts to net asset value. Despite this, I remain optimistic for so many reasons. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:04:19First, I believe the subsector will work through some of its oversupply, either through M&A or from treasury companies selling their digital assets to close the discounts. Secondly, I believe there are fundamental reasons why Upexi can and should trade at a premium valuation in constructive market environments. As discussed in the past, these have to do with our multiple value accrual mechanisms, which have value. Third, as we have publicly stated, we are working to increase the yield that we generate on the treasury in a risk-prudent and recurring fashion. Should we be successful, we believe this would increase our multiple, which in turn would accelerate the model and differentiate Upexi from others. Lastly, I believe we're likely to see multiple expansion in a bull market. This has been the case historically with public companies, and there are large catalysts like the potential passage of U.S. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:05:10Digital asset legislation that could quickly bring this to fruition. In closing, while we have had a turbulent start to 2026, we remain positive about the future, and the company has developed a strong strategic plan to: one, increase yield; two, hedge positions use a maturing option market; and lastly, capitalize on top opportunities the volatility creates. All of these things should lead to significant growth in yield, cash flow, and stability for 2026 and beyond. With that, I'd like to turn the call over to our Chief Strategy Officer, Brian Rudick. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:05:47Thanks, Allan, and hello, everyone. Despite the challenges during the quarter, the underlying fundamentals for both Solana and Upexi remain solid. As a brief reminder, Solana's North Star is what it calls internet capital markets, where it aims to upgrade our antiquated global financial infrastructure. Existing constructs like ACH and the credit card issuer networks were created 50+ years ago and are slow and expensive, while even fintech is simply a front-end wrapper on this antiquated infrastructure. But we can now use internet and blockchain-based rails to upgrade this antiquated infrastructure for huge speed and cost savings, in addition to other benefits around transparency, composability, investor access, and many more. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:06:33Solana continued to progress throughout the quarter with increased development, adoption, and usage. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:06:40The spot Solana ETFs launched and have seen over $850 million of net inflows since. Stablecoin supply reached a new record, tokenized equities are booming, non-native tokens like MON and STRK began trading on Solana, and the Firedancer client launched on Mainnet. Importantly, key announcements were made by various leading institutions, including Western Union, Visa, Coinbase, Revolut, Kalshi, and SoFi. In short, Solana demonstrated strong momentum, and particularly so related to its internet capital markets goal. The opportunity to revolutionize finance is massive, and Solana is at its very heart. We remained active with the capital markets, highlighted by the private placement of up to $19 million in common stock and warrants, and subsequent to quarter end, an additional $7 million common stock and warrants offering, as well as a $36 million in-kind convertible note issuance. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:07:42Both were done at a premium to our fully loaded NAV, meaning they increased the adjusted Solana per share. We also became shelf-eligible during the quarter and quickly filed our shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC, which is now effective. We announced a $50 million share repurchase program, adding another important tool to manage capital. On the visibility front, we participated in over 10 conferences and events during the quarter, including Solana Breakpoint, Maxim, Cantor, Rothschild, Roth, Clear Street, and others. These resulted in myriad presentations and panels, as well as in over 100 investor meetings where we continue to evangelize both Solana and Upexi. We continue to appear in many news articles and podcasts throughout the quarter. Put simply, Solana is executing on its internet capital markets roadmap, and Upexi is adding additional value for shareholders. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:08:41With that, I'd like to turn the call over to our Chief Financial Officer, Andrew Norstrud, for a review of our financial performance. Andrew NorstrudCFO at Upexi00:08:48Thank you, Brian. As of December 31st, the company had approximately $1.6 million in cash and 2.17 million Solana tokens. 1.32 million of those tokens were liquid, 850,000 of those tokens were locked. For the six months ended December 31st, 2025, the company had digital asset revenue of approximately $11.2 million or approximately 65,700 tokens added. We expect to increase the number of tokens we hold in our treasury each quarter and also increase the quarterly revenue from the treasury. The direct treasury expenses for the six months ended December 31st, 2025, were approximately $6 million, which included management fees, custodial fees, service fees, and interest. For the six months ended December 31st, 2025, the treasury had an unrealized loss on digital assets of approximately $86.4 million, reflective of the Solana price per token of $124.48 at December 31st, 2025. Andrew NorstrudCFO at Upexi00:09:56There are no comparable financial information for the prior period as the digital treasury was started in April of 2025. The company continues to develop the digital asset treasury with a focus on maximizing the return for shareholders and had approximately 95% of all tokens staked at December 31st, 2025. For the second quarter, total revenue was approximately $8.1 million, an increase of approximately $4 million or just over 100%, compared to $4 million in the prior year quarter. For the six months period ended December 31st, 2025, total revenue was $17.3 million, compared to $8.4 million in the prior period. This increase reflects the addition of digital asset treasury business in 2025. The net loss for the quarter was approximately $178.9 million or approximately $2.94 per share. Andrew NorstrudCFO at Upexi00:10:55This loss was primarily driven by the $164.5 million of unrealized losses on digital assets, reflecting non-cash quarter-end fair value adjustments, as well as approximately $8.3 million of stock compensation expense. Excluding these fair value changes, the underlying treasury performance has remained strong. We increased the number of Solana tokens in our treasury during the quarter by approximately 106,000 tokens. The increase was driven by spot token purchases, partially offset by a decline in the locked Solana through a swap transaction. We continue to strengthen our balance sheet in light of the changing market environment. Primarily to accretive equity raises previously mentioned, we currently have approximately $9.7 million of cash on hand. Management continues to focus on growing Solana's holdings on a per-share basis through disciplined capital activities, staking yield, and opportunity stake purchases of discounted locked tokens while maintaining prudent leverage and risk management. Andrew NorstrudCFO at Upexi00:12:07Now I'll turn it back over to Allan for concluding remarks. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:12:11Thanks, Andrew. I wanted to conclude the call by highlighting our top priorities. While we, as always, remain hyper-focused on external visibility and intelligent capital issuance, there are two key initiatives worth highlighting. The first is a continued focus on accretive growth. We aim to raise capital above NAV to increase our digital assets per share. We will continue to look for ways to raise equity capital in the most cost-effective manner available. Additionally, we will also continue to issue in-kind convertible notes at a premium to NAV. Such notes offer differentiated risk-reward for investors while significantly reducing credit risk for both parties. Our second key focus going forward is to increase the yield on the treasury in a low-risk fashion, which we believe would enhance our valuation. If we are successful, we should trade at a sustainable premium, which itself would accelerate the capital market's flywheel. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:13:02In closing, we've remained active even in a significant downtrend, completing both a capital raise and an in-kind convert, both at slightly or above NAV. While this has not helped stem the downturn or the stock performance, we believe it will accelerate the upturn when Solana and crypto begin to recover from the current drawdown. With that, I'll turn it over to the operator for questions. Operator00:13:27Thank you. If you would like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad. Confirmation tone will indicate your line is in the question queue. You may press star two if you would like to remove your question from the queue. For participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the star keys. Our first question is from Brian Kinstlinger with Alliance Global Partners. Please proceed. Brian KinstlingerSenior Technology Analyst at Alliance Global Partners00:13:55Great. Thanks. Excuse me. Thanks for taking my questions. With the recent pressure on Solana coupled with your high conviction, is there any change in terms of your capital raising strategy? Are you more willing to raise capital at a lower premium to NAV, so to reduce your average purchase price, and then is the goal to use the ATM as much as possible to lower your cost of capital? Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:14:28I think I'll jump in here, Brian. Allan Marshall. I don't think we've changed our perspective at all on this. We have one of the lowest costs on Solana tokens. We were able to, like we said, do two capital raises subsequent to the quarter end with the one with Hivemind and then the cash one not too long ago, just over NAV. So we don't want to panic here or I shouldn't say panic, but make decisions based on just daily movement. We continue to bring that cost down. We'll definitely be open to raising capital as that gap to NAV closes again, but we're still going to look to raise above NAV or at NAV as often as possible. The ATM, obviously, is the lowest cost. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:15:20Now that we have all the tools in place going forward, we'll certainly be willing to use that, but we'll also be willing to sell Solana to buy stock back if that gap gets too wide as well. Brian KinstlingerSenior Technology Analyst at Alliance Global Partners00:15:33Well, to that point, you've got $9.7 million of cash. How do you weigh buying SOL versus keeping a reserve? Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:15:45I think the one thing that this downturn has taught everybody is to keep a reserve, right? The volatility has been even, I think, even from the crypto lens, would be considered pretty volatile in such a short period of time, especially into what everyone considers tailwinds. So right now, we're going to just be prudent. We do think we're getting close to washing out at the bottom here. Hopefully, it'll bounce around for a while and recover. So cash reserves are okay. What we've done is just kind of stressed the balance sheet, make sure that we're set. The other thing with the whole market, and I said it in our call, is the options market and everything are getting much more liquid. So you're going to have a lot more opportunity to hedge these positions or to partially hedge these positions. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:16:35We tried to do it earlier in the year. We're just unable to get a liquid enough market to do the size we want it. Looking back, we wish we could have, but with all of the new kind of attention to it, all of the ETFs launching, liquidity is coming. So everything's maturing, and I think all of that's going to still bring a lot of opportunity, both to raise capital again, to hedge in any movements, to sit on cash. Right now, we're just, in general, playing it as close to the vest we can, but we're still looking to grow. Brian KinstlingerSenior Technology Analyst at Alliance Global Partners00:17:12Right. My last question is, you've alluded to your high-yield strategy plans. I think you had a press release a while back on that too. Any more you can share? We've seen a number of DEX lender digital coins. They've generated a much higher return. I guess I'm curious, is there a lower appetite for would-be partners for this type of transaction given the pressure in cryptocurrency, or are there still a number of parties that have a high degree of interest in something's imminent? Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:17:47A couple of things. One is, I want to see how that yield. We understand how they're looping those tokens and everything. I don't believe that creates the yield that they're talking about, so I want to see how that's. I'm not sure it's presented in an apples-to-apples presentation, so we want to see that. However, we are currently going through the exercise to pinpoint the risk-adjusted, high-yield strategies we're looking for or opportunities. While we do believe there's a time and a place for on-chain yield, today is not it for us. We're still not willing to go on-chain. We're still waiting for that regulatory clarity. The on-chain comes with additional smart contract liquidation risks. We don't want to enter into any of that. Like you said, with that volatility and those yields can also compress. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:18:41So what we're looking at is a more familiar and really easily understood by traditional kind of investors. We're looking at something that's more familiar in the markets. We're going to try to launch that here into the second quarter, so April forward. At that point, we'll kind of give more clarity on how we're doing that, but it's not on-chain. That's all I can tell you for now. Brian KinstlingerSenior Technology Analyst at Alliance Global Partners00:19:05Okay. Thanks for taking my questions. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:19:08No problem. Operator00:19:10As a reminder, there's star one on your telephone keypad if you would like to ask a question. Our next question is from Brett Knoblauch with Cantor Fitzgerald. Please proceed. Brett KnoblauchManaging Director at Cantor Fitzgerald00:19:23Hi guys. Thanks for taking my question. I might have missed this, but is there an updated SOL balance following the direct offering and the placement of the convertible notes? In the press release, it said around 2.4 million. Is that the number that we should be using? Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:19:46That's the public number we have so far. It's really close. It's really close to that number. Nothing much has changed. Brett KnoblauchManaging Director at Cantor Fitzgerald00:19:55Perfect. Appreciate it. And then just to maybe double-click on the generating additional yield outside of staking, could you maybe elaborate on what forms of activities you would be participating in? Obviously, you said nothing on-chain, but any additional color on how or where you would generate additional yield to staking? Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:20:21I'll let Brian step in here, but yeah, what I will say is we will definitely elaborate on that going forward, but right now, we're trying to get it set up the way we want to get it set up. But I'll let Brian step in and elaborate a little bit there. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:20:35Yeah. Thanks, Allan, and thanks, Brett. Yeah. As Allan mentioned, we're still in the exploratory phase. We think that we've identified specifically one strategy that can generate high yield in a low-risk way, but we're waiting till we're a bit further along in that path before we reveal too many details. The one thing I'd say is we've got really two key things that we're focused on. One is making sure that this is recurring, and number two, making sure that this is low-risk. And so when we think about it internally, our hurdle rate is that low- to mid-teens that we can get on the locked. And so we've bought locked Solana at a 15% discount. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:21:17When you think of it like OID and you put that 15% discount into a yield equivalent, we sit at the 7% staking yield on that, and so it translates to an all-in low-teens yield. We view that as low-risk as well. That is kind of the hurdle rate of what we're looking to do. Everything that we do will be compared against that, but we will give more information in the future as we continue to progress there. Brett KnoblauchManaging Director at Cantor Fitzgerald00:21:50Perfect. Thanks, guys. Appreciate it. Operator00:21:55There are no more further questions. I would like to turn the conference back over to Allan Marshall for closing remarks. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:22:04Want to thank everybody for joining the call. I know it's been a tough quarter for everyone in crypto. Like I said, during the call, we do think the future is still bright. We think we're on the right path. And thank you for the great questions, and we'll look forward to updating you guys during the quarter and look forward to the next conference call. Thank you very much. Operator00:22:29The conference has now concluded. Thank you for attending today's presentation. You may now disconnect.Read moreParticipantsExecutivesAllan MarshallCEOBrian RudickChief Strategy OfficerAnalystsAndrew NorstrudCFO at UpexiBrett KnoblauchManaging Director at Cantor FitzgeraldBrian KinstlingerSenior Technology Analyst at Alliance Global PartnersValter PintoManaging Director at KCSA Strategic CommunicationsPowered by Earnings DocumentsPress Release(8-K)Quarterly report(10-Q) Upexi Earnings HeadlinesCantor Fitzgerald Reiterates "Overweight" Rating for Upexi (NASDAQ:UPXI)September 20 at 1:48 AM | americanbankingnews.comUpexi (NASDAQ:UPXI) Lowered to Sell Rating by Wall Street ZenSeptember 20 at 1:07 AM | americanbankingnews.comThe cat is out the bagAlmost 80,000 tech jobs vanished in the first three months of 2026.

Valter PintoManaging Director at KCSA Strategic Communications00:00:21Thank you, Operator.

I'd now like to turn the call over to Upexi CEO Allan Marshall. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:01:46Thank you, Valter, and welcome to our Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Conference Call. I'm happy to review our results and discuss why, despite the difficult market backdrop, I remain extremely optimistic for the future and why we remain well-positioned to win. The market presented two key challenges for us last quarter, with both declining asset prices and treasury company multiple compression. This was reflected in our quarterly results as well as in our stock price. I'll discuss each in succession. On the former, the price of Solana fell 40% during the quarter, and it has fallen a further 31% since the quarter end. While there have been many reasons cited, including rising geopolitical risks, precious metals stealing the show, and many more, the fact of the matter is the biggest determinant of any treasury company success has and always will be the performance of its underlying token. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:02:39Thus, we were not immune, and Solana's performance had a big impact on the company. That said, I remain encouraged for three key reasons. The first is, given their nascency, such volatility is normal with digital assets, and Solana often exhibits large movements in both directions along a significant uptrend over time. Second, as Brian will discuss in more detail, the underlying fundamentals for Solana continue to improve as global finance moves on-chain. Here I'm particularly optimistic because, over time, price follows fundamentals, and improving fundamentals against a falling price is a recipe for greater potential upside. Lastly, as a treasury company, we have multiple mechanisms not available to native tokens or ETFs that can create value for shareholders, like accretive issuance and discounted locked token purchases. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:03:32We have, in the past, and aim to, in the future, increase our Solana per share to help offset any decline in token price or to add to any increase in price in an upmarket. So overall, between the volatility being expected, a positive view for potential Solana price appreciation, and our ability to increase Solana per share, we remain positive about the opportunity and continue to believe 2026 will be a strong year for Solana and Upexi. The second key challenge during the quarter was general multiple compression in the treasury space. We believe this was due to the law of supply and demand. With over 200 treasury companies, it is not hard to see why many are trading at discounts to net asset value. Despite this, I remain optimistic for so many reasons. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:04:19First, I believe the subsector will work through some of its oversupply, either through M&A or from treasury companies selling their digital assets to close the discounts. Secondly, I believe there are fundamental reasons why Upexi can and should trade at a premium valuation in constructive market environments. As discussed in the past, these have to do with our multiple value accrual mechanisms, which have value. Third, as we have publicly stated, we are working to increase the yield that we generate on the treasury in a risk-prudent and recurring fashion. Should we be successful, we believe this would increase our multiple, which in turn would accelerate the model and differentiate Upexi from others. Lastly, I believe we're likely to see multiple expansion in a bull market. This has been the case historically with public companies, and there are large catalysts like the potential passage of U.S. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:05:10Digital asset legislation that could quickly bring this to fruition. In closing, while we have had a turbulent start to 2026, we remain positive about the future, and the company has developed a strong strategic plan to: one, increase yield; two, hedge positions use a maturing option market; and lastly, capitalize on top opportunities the volatility creates. All of these things should lead to significant growth in yield, cash flow, and stability for 2026 and beyond. With that, I'd like to turn the call over to our Chief Strategy Officer, Brian Rudick. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:05:47Thanks, Allan, and hello, everyone. Despite the challenges during the quarter, the underlying fundamentals for both Solana and Upexi remain solid. As a brief reminder, Solana's North Star is what it calls internet capital markets, where it aims to upgrade our antiquated global financial infrastructure. Existing constructs like ACH and the credit card issuer networks were created 50+ years ago and are slow and expensive, while even fintech is simply a front-end wrapper on this antiquated infrastructure. But we can now use internet and blockchain-based rails to upgrade this antiquated infrastructure for huge speed and cost savings, in addition to other benefits around transparency, composability, investor access, and many more. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:06:33Solana continued to progress throughout the quarter with increased development, adoption, and usage. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:06:40The spot Solana ETFs launched and have seen over $850 million of net inflows since. Stablecoin supply reached a new record, tokenized equities are booming, non-native tokens like MON and STRK began trading on Solana, and the Firedancer client launched on Mainnet. Importantly, key announcements were made by various leading institutions, including Western Union, Visa, Coinbase, Revolut, Kalshi, and SoFi. In short, Solana demonstrated strong momentum, and particularly so related to its internet capital markets goal. The opportunity to revolutionize finance is massive, and Solana is at its very heart. We remained active with the capital markets, highlighted by the private placement of up to $19 million in common stock and warrants, and subsequent to quarter end, an additional $7 million common stock and warrants offering, as well as a $36 million in-kind convertible note issuance. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:07:42Both were done at a premium to our fully loaded NAV, meaning they increased the adjusted Solana per share. We also became shelf-eligible during the quarter and quickly filed our shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC, which is now effective. We announced a $50 million share repurchase program, adding another important tool to manage capital. On the visibility front, we participated in over 10 conferences and events during the quarter, including Solana Breakpoint, Maxim, Cantor, Rothschild, Roth, Clear Street, and others. These resulted in myriad presentations and panels, as well as in over 100 investor meetings where we continue to evangelize both Solana and Upexi. We continue to appear in many news articles and podcasts throughout the quarter. Put simply, Solana is executing on its internet capital markets roadmap, and Upexi is adding additional value for shareholders. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:08:41With that, I'd like to turn the call over to our Chief Financial Officer, Andrew Norstrud, for a review of our financial performance. Andrew NorstrudCFO at Upexi00:08:48Thank you, Brian. As of December 31st, the company had approximately $1.6 million in cash and 2.17 million Solana tokens. 1.32 million of those tokens were liquid, 850,000 of those tokens were locked. For the six months ended December 31st, 2025, the company had digital asset revenue of approximately $11.2 million or approximately 65,700 tokens added. We expect to increase the number of tokens we hold in our treasury each quarter and also increase the quarterly revenue from the treasury. The direct treasury expenses for the six months ended December 31st, 2025, were approximately $6 million, which included management fees, custodial fees, service fees, and interest. For the six months ended December 31st, 2025, the treasury had an unrealized loss on digital assets of approximately $86.4 million, reflective of the Solana price per token of $124.48 at December 31st, 2025. Andrew NorstrudCFO at Upexi00:09:56There are no comparable financial information for the prior period as the digital treasury was started in April of 2025. The company continues to develop the digital asset treasury with a focus on maximizing the return for shareholders and had approximately 95% of all tokens staked at December 31st, 2025. For the second quarter, total revenue was approximately $8.1 million, an increase of approximately $4 million or just over 100%, compared to $4 million in the prior year quarter. For the six months period ended December 31st, 2025, total revenue was $17.3 million, compared to $8.4 million in the prior period. This increase reflects the addition of digital asset treasury business in 2025. The net loss for the quarter was approximately $178.9 million or approximately $2.94 per share. Andrew NorstrudCFO at Upexi00:10:55This loss was primarily driven by the $164.5 million of unrealized losses on digital assets, reflecting non-cash quarter-end fair value adjustments, as well as approximately $8.3 million of stock compensation expense. Excluding these fair value changes, the underlying treasury performance has remained strong. We increased the number of Solana tokens in our treasury during the quarter by approximately 106,000 tokens. The increase was driven by spot token purchases, partially offset by a decline in the locked Solana through a swap transaction. We continue to strengthen our balance sheet in light of the changing market environment. Primarily to accretive equity raises previously mentioned, we currently have approximately $9.7 million of cash on hand. Management continues to focus on growing Solana's holdings on a per-share basis through disciplined capital activities, staking yield, and opportunity stake purchases of discounted locked tokens while maintaining prudent leverage and risk management. Andrew NorstrudCFO at Upexi00:12:07Now I'll turn it back over to Allan for concluding remarks. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:12:11Thanks, Andrew. I wanted to conclude the call by highlighting our top priorities. While we, as always, remain hyper-focused on external visibility and intelligent capital issuance, there are two key initiatives worth highlighting. The first is a continued focus on accretive growth. We aim to raise capital above NAV to increase our digital assets per share. We will continue to look for ways to raise equity capital in the most cost-effective manner available. Additionally, we will also continue to issue in-kind convertible notes at a premium to NAV. Such notes offer differentiated risk-reward for investors while significantly reducing credit risk for both parties. Our second key focus going forward is to increase the yield on the treasury in a low-risk fashion, which we believe would enhance our valuation. If we are successful, we should trade at a sustainable premium, which itself would accelerate the capital market's flywheel. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:13:02In closing, we've remained active even in a significant downtrend, completing both a capital raise and an in-kind convert, both at slightly or above NAV. While this has not helped stem the downturn or the stock performance, we believe it will accelerate the upturn when Solana and crypto begin to recover from the current drawdown. With that, I'll turn it over to the operator for questions. Operator00:13:27Thank you. If you would like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad. Confirmation tone will indicate your line is in the question queue. You may press star two if you would like to remove your question from the queue. For participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the star keys. Our first question is from Brian Kinstlinger with Alliance Global Partners. Please proceed. Brian KinstlingerSenior Technology Analyst at Alliance Global Partners00:13:55Great. Thanks. Excuse me. Thanks for taking my questions. With the recent pressure on Solana coupled with your high conviction, is there any change in terms of your capital raising strategy? Are you more willing to raise capital at a lower premium to NAV, so to reduce your average purchase price, and then is the goal to use the ATM as much as possible to lower your cost of capital? Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:14:28I think I'll jump in here, Brian. Allan Marshall. I don't think we've changed our perspective at all on this. We have one of the lowest costs on Solana tokens. We were able to, like we said, do two capital raises subsequent to the quarter end with the one with Hivemind and then the cash one not too long ago, just over NAV. So we don't want to panic here or I shouldn't say panic, but make decisions based on just daily movement. We continue to bring that cost down. We'll definitely be open to raising capital as that gap to NAV closes again, but we're still going to look to raise above NAV or at NAV as often as possible. The ATM, obviously, is the lowest cost. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:15:20Now that we have all the tools in place going forward, we'll certainly be willing to use that, but we'll also be willing to sell Solana to buy stock back if that gap gets too wide as well. Brian KinstlingerSenior Technology Analyst at Alliance Global Partners00:15:33Well, to that point, you've got $9.7 million of cash. How do you weigh buying SOL versus keeping a reserve? Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:15:45I think the one thing that this downturn has taught everybody is to keep a reserve, right? The volatility has been even, I think, even from the crypto lens, would be considered pretty volatile in such a short period of time, especially into what everyone considers tailwinds. So right now, we're going to just be prudent. We do think we're getting close to washing out at the bottom here. Hopefully, it'll bounce around for a while and recover. So cash reserves are okay. What we've done is just kind of stressed the balance sheet, make sure that we're set. The other thing with the whole market, and I said it in our call, is the options market and everything are getting much more liquid. So you're going to have a lot more opportunity to hedge these positions or to partially hedge these positions. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:16:35We tried to do it earlier in the year. We're just unable to get a liquid enough market to do the size we want it. Looking back, we wish we could have, but with all of the new kind of attention to it, all of the ETFs launching, liquidity is coming. So everything's maturing, and I think all of that's going to still bring a lot of opportunity, both to raise capital again, to hedge in any movements, to sit on cash. Right now, we're just, in general, playing it as close to the vest we can, but we're still looking to grow. Brian KinstlingerSenior Technology Analyst at Alliance Global Partners00:17:12Right. My last question is, you've alluded to your high-yield strategy plans. I think you had a press release a while back on that too. Any more you can share? We've seen a number of DEX lender digital coins. They've generated a much higher return. I guess I'm curious, is there a lower appetite for would-be partners for this type of transaction given the pressure in cryptocurrency, or are there still a number of parties that have a high degree of interest in something's imminent? Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:17:47A couple of things. One is, I want to see how that yield. We understand how they're looping those tokens and everything. I don't believe that creates the yield that they're talking about, so I want to see how that's. I'm not sure it's presented in an apples-to-apples presentation, so we want to see that. However, we are currently going through the exercise to pinpoint the risk-adjusted, high-yield strategies we're looking for or opportunities. While we do believe there's a time and a place for on-chain yield, today is not it for us. We're still not willing to go on-chain. We're still waiting for that regulatory clarity. The on-chain comes with additional smart contract liquidation risks. We don't want to enter into any of that. Like you said, with that volatility and those yields can also compress. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:18:41So what we're looking at is a more familiar and really easily understood by traditional kind of investors. We're looking at something that's more familiar in the markets. We're going to try to launch that here into the second quarter, so April forward. At that point, we'll kind of give more clarity on how we're doing that, but it's not on-chain. That's all I can tell you for now. Brian KinstlingerSenior Technology Analyst at Alliance Global Partners00:19:05Okay. Thanks for taking my questions. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:19:08No problem. Operator00:19:10As a reminder, there's star one on your telephone keypad if you would like to ask a question. Our next question is from Brett Knoblauch with Cantor Fitzgerald. Please proceed. Brett KnoblauchManaging Director at Cantor Fitzgerald00:19:23Hi guys. Thanks for taking my question. I might have missed this, but is there an updated SOL balance following the direct offering and the placement of the convertible notes? In the press release, it said around 2.4 million. Is that the number that we should be using? Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:19:46That's the public number we have so far. It's really close. It's really close to that number. Nothing much has changed. Brett KnoblauchManaging Director at Cantor Fitzgerald00:19:55Perfect. Appreciate it. And then just to maybe double-click on the generating additional yield outside of staking, could you maybe elaborate on what forms of activities you would be participating in? Obviously, you said nothing on-chain, but any additional color on how or where you would generate additional yield to staking? Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:20:21I'll let Brian step in here, but yeah, what I will say is we will definitely elaborate on that going forward, but right now, we're trying to get it set up the way we want to get it set up. But I'll let Brian step in and elaborate a little bit there. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:20:35Yeah. Thanks, Allan, and thanks, Brett. Yeah. As Allan mentioned, we're still in the exploratory phase. We think that we've identified specifically one strategy that can generate high yield in a low-risk way, but we're waiting till we're a bit further along in that path before we reveal too many details. The one thing I'd say is we've got really two key things that we're focused on. One is making sure that this is recurring, and number two, making sure that this is low-risk. And so when we think about it internally, our hurdle rate is that low- to mid-teens that we can get on the locked. And so we've bought locked Solana at a 15% discount. Brian RudickChief Strategy Officer at Upexi00:21:17When you think of it like OID and you put that 15% discount into a yield equivalent, we sit at the 7% staking yield on that, and so it translates to an all-in low-teens yield. We view that as low-risk as well. That is kind of the hurdle rate of what we're looking to do. Everything that we do will be compared against that, but we will give more information in the future as we continue to progress there. Brett KnoblauchManaging Director at Cantor Fitzgerald00:21:50Perfect. Thanks, guys. Appreciate it. Operator00:21:55There are no more further questions. I would like to turn the conference back over to Allan Marshall for closing remarks. Allan MarshallCEO at Upexi00:22:04Want to thank everybody for joining the call. I know it's been a tough quarter for everyone in crypto. Like I said, during the call, we do think the future is still bright. We think we're on the right path. And thank you for the great questions, and we'll look forward to updating you guys during the quarter and look forward to the next conference call. Thank you very much. Operator00:22:29The conference has now concluded. Thank you for attending today's presentation. You may now disconnect.Read moreParticipantsExecutivesAllan MarshallCEOBrian RudickChief Strategy OfficerAnalystsAndrew NorstrudCFO at UpexiBrett KnoblauchManaging Director at Cantor FitzgeraldBrian KinstlingerSenior Technology Analyst at Alliance Global PartnersValter PintoManaging Director at KCSA Strategic CommunicationsPowered by
