Fold Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLD) Announces Third Quarter 2026 Results

Thousands of customers activated Fold’s new balance products, bringing millions of dollars in balances onto the platform.

Sentiment and the balance of points

Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

Fold Holdings (NASDAQ: FLD) reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $4.2 million as it expanded balance-based products and credit card access. Revenue fell from $7,398,939 to $4,161,541 year over year. Net loss was $2,649,889, or $0.05 per share, versus net income of $554,242, or $0.01 per share. Operating expenses fell 21% to $10.5 million. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP earnings measure, was a $4.5 million loss, improving from a $5.5 million loss in Q2.

Fold launched Reserve and Lead Bank spending accounts, expanded credit card early access to approximately 2,500 cardholders, and reported an approximate 270% increase in custody and trading revenue driven by gift card sales. Quarter-end cash was $21.7 million, with total treasury holdings of 247 BTC. Fold extended its $13 million note to November 2027 and replaced its $250 million equity line with a $25 million committed equity facility. Its Nasdaq compliance deadline is January 11, 2027.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

News Explained

Common shares outstanding rose from 48,419,266 at December 31, 2025, to 54,873,627 at September 30, 2026; the approved reverse-split authorization is a separate Nasdaq-compliance tool.

In its third-quarter release, Fold says stockholders approved a reverse-stock-split authorization on October 22, 2026, one tool available to address its January 11, 2027 Nasdaq compliance deadline. Common shares outstanding were 48,419,266 on December 31, 2025, and 54,873,627 on September 30, 2026; for holders whose own share counts did not change, the larger total means lower percentage ownership, absent offsetting changes.

A reverse split consolidates shares, reducing the share count and proportionally raising the per-share price; the split itself does not change company value.

Key Terms

gaap, convertible note, fdic-insured, reverse stock split
4 terms
gaap financial
"not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)"
GAAP, or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, are a set of standardized rules and guidelines that companies follow when preparing their financial statements. They ensure consistency, transparency, and comparability across different companies, making it easier for investors to understand and compare financial information accurately. This helps investors make informed decisions based on trustworthy and uniform financial reports.
View in glossary
convertible note financial
"June 2025 convertible note, net"
A convertible note is a type of loan that a company gets from investors, which can later be turned into company shares instead of being paid back in cash. It matters because it helps startups raise money quickly without setting a fixed value for the company right away, making it easier to grow and attract investors.
fdic-insured regulatory
"deposits held at Lead Bank, an FDIC-insured institution"
"FDIC-insured" means that a bank or savings institution is protected by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, which guarantees that depositors will get back their money up to a certain limit if the bank fails. This insurance provides peace of mind, similar to a safety net, ensuring that your savings are protected even if the bank encounters financial trouble. It helps build trust and confidence for people saving or investing their money in banks.
reverse stock split regulatory
"stockholders approved a reverse stock split authorization"
A reverse stock split reduces a company's number of outstanding shares while raising the price per share proportionally, so the total value of each investor's holding is unchanged; a 1-for-10 split turns 100 shares worth $1 each into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to regain compliance with an exchange's minimum price rule or to attract investors who avoid very low-priced stocks.

PHOENIX, Nov. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fold Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLD) (“Fold”, “we”, or “our”), the first publicly traded bitcoin financial services company, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

CEO Commentary

“We believe Q3 was an inflection point for Fold,” said Fold Chairman and CEO Will Reeves. “Over the last few months we’ve evolved from strictly a transaction-based business to one that also monetizes customer balances, broadened our focus from bitcoin earners to every American who earns rewards, strengthened our balance sheet, maintained a focus on operational efficiency, and opened new distribution channels that take our products to audiences we’ve never reached before.”

Mr. Reeves continued, “We are reshaping Fold from a business built on gathering customers into one built on gathering assets. A transaction pays us once. A customer balance earns for us every month it stays on the platform, and it ties that customer more closely to everything else we offer. Early demand for our new balance products is running ahead of our expectations, and those customers hold balances several times larger than our average user. Fold is becoming a place where customers keep their money, not just a place where they spend it.”

Mr. Reeves concluded, “The bitcoin market remained soft through the quarter, and our Q3 results reflect the noise of a major transition: a new banking partner, a new deposit strategy, a consolidated merchant platform, and a shift toward balance-based economics. The benefits of this transition are ahead of us, and we’ve de-risked the path to them. With our only debt extended two years, operating expenses down, and a financing partner for our Credit Card expected to be announced shortly, we believe Fold has never been better positioned for its next stage of growth.”

Strategic & Business Updates

Fold Credit Card

  • Expanded Early Access to approximately 2,500 cardholders
  • Transitioned from a waitlist to an invite system for all eligible customers
  • Launching a pre-approval flow that allows prospective cardholders to get pre-approved outside the Fold app, increasing top-of-funnel conversion and enabling partners to offer the card directly to their customers
  • Intend to add a credit facility partner in the future, which would allow the program to scale beyond the Company’s own balance sheet with more invitations, higher limits for qualified customers, and dedicated marketing spend

Platform Expansion

  • Launched Fold Reserve, a stored-value product that lets customers hold funds on Fold and unlock Fold’s best rewards tiers, including bill pay rewards, zero-fee and zero-spread bitcoin trading, and higher card rewards
  • Launched Lead Bank spending accounts, with deposits held at Lead Bank, an FDIC-insured institution
  • Thousands of customers activated Fold’s new balance products, bringing millions of dollars in balances onto the platform. These customers hold balances several times larger than the average Fold user, with participation across every rewards tier
  • Launched pass-through bitcoin buying, enabling customers to buy bitcoin directly from any linked bank account without first moving money into Fold

Bitcoin Gift Card

  • Became the first and only bitcoin gift card on TikTok Shop, which quickly became Fold’s largest gift card and customer acquisition channel
  • Gift card sales drove an approximate 270% increase in Custody & Trading revenues
  • September was a record month for bitcoin gift card sales, and the product holds a 4.7-star rating
  • Kroger renewed its commitment to the Fold program

Merchant Offers

  • Consolidated gift card merchant offers onto Blackhawk, a program that carries better economics; nearly all merchants that were temporarily unavailable during the transition have been restored

Capital & Balance Sheet

  • Ended the quarter with $21.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and 171 BTC in Investment Treasury
  • Extended the maturity of the Company’s $13 million note to November 2027, with a Company option to extend to November 2028 and nearly doubled its potential capacity to $25 million
  • Replaced the $250 million equity line with a $25 million committed equity facility, meaningfully reducing the potential dilution overhang and providing more cost-efficient capital
  • On October 22, 2026, stockholders approved a reverse stock split authorization, one tool available to the Company to regain compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements ahead of the January 11, 2027 deadline

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

In addition to net income (loss) and other results under GAAP, we utilize non-GAAP calculations of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) to monitor the financial health of our business. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss, excluding (i) interest expense, (ii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) share-based compensation, (v) remeasurement gains and losses such as fair value remeasurements on our digital assets, convertible notes, and SAFE notes, (vi) impairments, restructuring charges, and business acquisition- or disposition-related expenses that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results, and (vii) legal settlement expenses associated with unusual or non-recurring litigation matters that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. This non-GAAP financial information has limitations as an analytical tool when assessing our operating performance, is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature, or because the amount and timing of these items are unpredictable, are not driven by core results of operations, and/or render comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per share provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of core operations, as well as providing a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. Moreover, Adjusted EBITDA is a key measurement used by our management internally to make operating decisions, including those related to operating expenses, evaluate performance, and perform strategic planning and annual budgeting.

The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, net loss:
