Insights

Financial Analyst

DeFi Technologies shows mixed signals with strong inflows despite AUM decline and maintained revenue guidance, indicating resilience amid market volatility.

DeFi Technologies' June 2025 update presents a mixed financial picture with both challenges and strengths. The 5% month-over-month decrease in AUM to US$771 million reflects broader digital asset market softness rather than operational issues, as evidenced by the company's continued ability to attract capital.

The consistent net inflows of US$4.5 million in June and US$75.9 million year-to-date demonstrate strong product-market fit and investor confidence despite market volatility. This is particularly notable given the broader market conditions and reinforces Valour's competitive positioning in the ETP space.

From a balance sheet perspective, DeFi Technologies maintains a robust treasury position of US$62.4 million, though both cash/USDT (-17%) and digital asset treasury (-8.7%) declined month-over-month. The unchanged loan balance of C$8.6 million tied to the Genesis restructuring is worth monitoring but doesn't present immediate concern given the overall financial strength.

The company's diversified revenue streams are noteworthy: Q1 2025 results showed US$10 million in staking/lending income alongside US$2.6 million in management fees. This vertical integration allows DeFi Technologies to generate protocol-level yields in addition to traditional asset management fees, creating revenue resilience not typically seen in conventional financial services.

The maintained 2025 revenue guidance of US$201.07 million signals management's confidence in their execution despite market volatility. Strategic developments including Dr. Knof's appointment and the expansion of ETP offerings across new markets position the company for continued growth. The DeFi Alpha trading desk's contribution of C$155.9 million in revenue since Q2 2024 demonstrates the company's ability to capitalize on market inefficiencies beyond traditional product offerings.

The diversification across multiple digital assets in both treasury holdings and ETP products provides some insulation against single-asset volatility, though Bitcoin and Solana exposure still dominates. This strategic positioning, combined with planned expansion to 100 ETP products by year-end and entry into emerging markets, indicates a comprehensive growth strategy focusing on both product development and geographic expansion.

• AUM & Continued Monthly Net Inflows: Valour reported assets under management (AUM) of US$771M (C$1.04B) as of June 30, 2025, reflecting a 5% decrease month-over-month. Net inflows for May remained strong at US$4.5.M (C$6.2M), bringing year-to-date inflows to US$75.9M (C$105.5M)—underscoring accelerating investor demand for Valour's ETPs.
• Strong Financial Position & Treasury Strategy: The company maintains a total cash, USDT, and treasury balance of US$62.4M (C$85M), comprising US$14M (C$19M) in cash and USDT, reflecting a 17% decrease from the previous month, and US$48.4M (C$66M) in its digital asset treasury, a 8.7% decrease from the previous month as of June 30, 2025.
• 2025 Revenue Guidance: DeFi Technologies' fiscal 2025 revenue guidance remains US$201.07M (C$285.6M).

DeFi Alpha Strategy

The Company continues to assess and execute on arbitrage opportunities through its specialized trading desk, DeFi Alpha. Since its launch in Q2 2024, DeFi Alpha has generated a total of C$155.9 million (US$114.1 million) in revenue, including a one-time arbitrage trade announced on May 5, 2025, that delivered a return of C$23.8 million (US$17.3 million), incorporating a non-cash DLOM valuation adjustment. This strategy has significantly strengthened the Company's financial position, enabling debt repayment and supporting the ongoing expansion of its digital asset treasury.

2025 Financial Outlook:

DeFi Technologies' fiscal 2025 revenue forecast of approximately C$285.6 million (US$201.07 million) excludes any decrease or recovery of discount for lack of marketability ("DLOM") applied to two private investment funds through which the Company gained exposure to locked Solana and Avalanche tokens ("Locked Tokens"). In fiscal 2024, the Locked Tokens were acquired with a DLOM applied to their fair market value, reflecting their restricted status until 2028. As these tokens unlock, reductions in the DLOM are recognized as revenue; however, given that these adjustments are non-operational in nature, they are excluded from the Company's fiscal 2025 revenue guidance.
