Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Coincheck Group N.V. reported third-quarter fiscal 2026 total revenue of ¥143.5 billion ($914.9 million), up 17% year-over-year and 8% quarter-over-quarter, driven by the Aplo acquisition, staking income and Initial Exchange Offering revenue. Net income reached ¥405 million ($2.6 million), compared with a ¥15,445 million loss a year earlier, though gross margin fell 20% and Adjusted EBITDA declined 38% year-over-year. Customer assets dropped 17% year-over-year and 20% sequentially as lower crypto prices and a 25% year-over-year decline in marketplace trading volume weighed on activity. Coincheck closed the acquisition of Paris-based prime broker Aplo and agreed to acquire up to 100% of Canadian digital asset manager 3iQ in a mainly stock deal. The company also announced CEO Gary Simanson will resign at fiscal year-end, with Chief Growth Officer and 3iQ CEO Pascal St‑Jean to become CEO on April 1, and disclosed that a prior nomination and voting agreement with its SPAC sponsor was terminated.

Insights
Coincheck returns to profit, adds institutional assets, but faces softer volumes.
Coincheck Group delivered third-quarter fiscal 2026 revenue of ¥143.5 billion, up 17% year-over-year, powered by contributions from the Aplo prime brokerage, staking revenue and IEO fees. Net income improved sharply to ¥405 million from a large prior-year loss tied to de‑SPAC transaction expenses.
Underlying activity is more mixed. Marketplace trading volume dropped 25% year-over-year and 7% sequentially, and customer assets fell 17% year-over-year, reflecting weaker crypto prices. Gross margin and Adjusted EBITDA declined, suggesting profitability is currently sensitive to market turnover and mix.
Strategically, Coincheck acquired Aplo and agreed to purchase up to nearly all of 3iQ Corp., valued at about $111.8 million in a largely share-based deal, to deepen institutional and asset-management capabilities. Leadership will transition to Pascal St‑Jean on April 1, 2026, aligning management with this institutional growth focus.

Coincheck Reports Financial Results for Third Quarter of Year Ending March 31, 2026, Announces Management Transition
Third Quarter Total Revenue Increased 17% Year-over-Year and 8% Quarter-over-Quarter
Amsterdam, Netherlands – February 12, 2026 – Coincheck Group N.V. (Nasdaq: CNCK) (“Coincheck Group” or the “Company”), a Dutch public limited liability company and the holding company of Coincheck, Inc. (“Coincheck”), a leading Japanese crypto exchange company, today reported financial results for the third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 (“fiscal 2026”). References to “fiscal 2025” mean the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025.
The Company also announced that Gary Simanson, its CEO and President, has informed the board of directors that he is resigning from Coincheck Group effective as of the end of the Company’s fiscal year, March 31, 2026. Pascal St-Jean, Coincheck Group’s Chief Growth Officer since November 2025, and the CEO of 3iQ Corp., a global pioneer in digital asset investment solutions, will succeed Mr. Simanson effective April 1. The Company announced its pending acquisition of 3iQ in January 2026.
“With the acquisition of 3iQ, Gary has led the Company to the next stage of its growth strategy,” said Oki Matsumoto, the Company’s Executive Chairperson. “Gary has been a highly effective leader – he has led our transition to becoming a Nasdaq-listed company, spearheaded our acquisition strategy, and built the initial structural foundation for our global strategy. We and the entire Coincheck Group community thank him for his leadership and wish him the absolute best in his future pursuits. Now, Pascal is ideally suited to lead the next phase of our strategy, which is to grow our institutional presence in the crypto industry, in Japan and other regions, by shifting from acquisitions to numerous types of B2B and B2B2C strategic alliances with large financial institutions and funds that we believe will be attracted to the combined platforms and services our operating subsidiaries can offer.”
“I deeply appreciate the Coincheck Group team’s efforts and what we have accomplished,” said Simanson. “I believe the company is well-positioned to succeed in the next phase of its strategy.”
“First, I need to say how exciting it is for me to be given the opportunity to lead this company in the next stage of its strategy to be a leading global crypto financial services company,” said St-Jean. “I believe we have the pieces we need, and now it is time to put them all together and execute on our vision.”
Financial Highlights:1
Certain Year-Over-Year Highlights
•Total revenue increased 17%, to ¥143.5 billion ($915 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 from ¥123.1 billion ($785 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2025, due mainly to revenue of ¥13.1 billion ($83 million) of Aplo (the Paris-based digital asset prime brokerage acquired by the Company in October 2025), staking revenue of ¥777 million ($5 million), and Initial Exchange Offering (or IEO) revenue of ¥359 million ($2 million) recorded in third quarter of fiscal 2026.
1 References in this announcement to “¥” are to Japanese Yen and references to “U.S. Dollars” and “$” are to United States Dollars. Unless otherwise stated, Coincheck Group has translated U.S. Dollar amounts from Japanese Yen at the exchange rate of ¥156.800 per $1.00, which was the ¥/$ exchange rate reported by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as of December 31, 2025.
•Gross margin2 decreased 20%, to ¥3,833 million ($24 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 from ¥4,794 million ($31 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2025, mainly as a result of a decrease in Marketplace Trading Volume, partially offset by an increase in IEO revenue.
•Verified Accounts3 increased 13%, to 2,475,345 as of December 31, 2025 from 2,197,619 as of December 31, 2024.
•Customer Assets4 decreased 17%, to ¥948.5 billion ($6,049 million) as of December 31, 2025 from ¥1,142.2 billion ($7,285 million) as of December 31, 2024. Even though the quantity of digital tokens held by customers remained relatively stable during the third quarter of fiscal 2026, Customer Assets decreased due primarily to the decline in the market price of crypto assets, including Bitcoin, Ethereum and XRP.
•Marketplace Trading Volume5 decreased 25%, to ¥87.7 billion ($559 million) for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 from ¥117.4 billion ($749 million) for the third quarter of fiscal 2025. Fluctuations in Marketplace Trading Volume are usually driven by crypto-asset industry market volumes and conditions generally, and the size and level of trading activity at Coincheck specifically, as well as market-price fluctuations in the crypto assets frequently traded.
•Net income was ¥405 million ($2.6 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to Net loss of ¥15,445 million ($98.5 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2025. A large component of the Net loss results for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was total transaction expenses6 of ¥17,518 million ($111.7 million).
•Adjusted EBITDA7 decreased 38%, to ¥1,428 million ($9.1 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to ¥2,303 million ($14.7 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2025, due mainly to lower Marketplace Trading Volume in the third quarter of fiscal 2026.
Certain Quarter-Over-Quarter Highlights
•Total revenue increased 8%, to ¥143.5 billion ($915 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to ¥133.1 billion ($849 million) in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, due to revenue of ¥13.1 billion ($83 million) of Aplo and Initial Exchange Offering (or IEO) revenue of ¥359 million ($2 million) recorded in third quarter of fiscal 2026.
•Gross margin decreased 1%, to ¥3,833 million ($24.4 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to ¥3,886 million ($24.8 million) in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, partially offset by an increase in IEO revenue.
•Verified Accounts increased 2%, to 2,475,345 as of December 31, 2025 from 2,421,080 as of September 30, 2025.
2 Gross margin is defined as total revenue less cost of sales for Coincheck Inc.’s business (does not include Aplo or Next Finance Tech).
3 Verified Accounts are all accounts that have been opened after the account owner completes all application procedures (including “know your customer” or “KYC”), after subtracting therefrom the total number of closed accounts. These numbers are for Coincheck Inc.’s business (do not include Aplo or Next Finance Tech).
4 Cryptocurrencies held for customers + fiat currency deposited by customers. This does not include NFTs or customer assets of Aplo, or of Next Finance Tech (if any).
5 Marketplace Trading Volume for a specific period is the total value, based on the underlying asset, of all transactions completed through Coincheck’s marketplace platform.
6 Transaction expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 were mainly cash and non-cash expenses related to the Company’s de-SPAC business combination, including listing expense, that closed in December 2024.
7 Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure; see “Non-IFRS financial measures” for definition and corresponding reconciliation below. Adjusted EBITDA has been calculated differently beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2026 than it was calculated for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, as further explained under “Non-IFRS financial measures” and “Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA.”
•Customer Assets decreased 20%, to ¥948.5 billion ($6,049 million) as of December 31, 2025 from ¥1,189.2 billion ($7,584 million) as of September 30, 2025. Even though the quantity of digital tokens held by customers remained relatively stable during the third quarter of fiscal 2026, Customer Assets decreased due primarily to the decline in the market price of crypto assets, including Bitcoin, Ethereum and XRP.
•Marketplace Trading Volume decreased 7%, to ¥87.7 billion ($559 million) for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 from ¥94.7 billion ($604 million) for the second quarter of fiscal 2026.
•Net income increased 14% to ¥405 million ($2.6 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to ¥354 million ($2.3 million) in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. The primary driver of this increase was a decrease in income tax expense and an increase in gain from change in fair value of warrant liability in the second quarter of fiscal 2026.
•Adjusted EBITDA decreased 4% to ¥1,428 million ($9.1 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to ¥1,486 million ($9.5 million) in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, due mainly to lower Marketplace Trading Volume in the third quarter of fiscal 2026.
Fiscal 2026 Third Quarter Strategic Highlights:
•The Company acquired Aplo SAS, a digital asset prime brokerage for institutional crypto investors based in Paris, on October 14, 2025. Aplo has grown rapidly and today serves more than 60 active institutional clients, including hedge funds, asset managers, banks and large corporates. Aplo was named “Prime Broker of the Year (EMEA)” at the 2025 Hedgeweek Global Digital Asset Awards. The purchase price was approximately $24 million in a stock-for-stock transaction.
Other Recent Highlights:
•Coincheck Group entered into a stock purchase agreement dated January 8, 2026, with its majority shareholder, Monex Group, Inc. (“Monex”), as seller, to acquire approximately 97% beneficial ownership of 3iQ Corp., one of the world's leading alternative digital asset managers. 3iQ is based in Ontario, Canada. Pursuant to the agreement, based on an agreed value for 3iQ of USD 111,840,476, and an agreed value for Coincheck Group stock of USD 4.00 per ordinary share, all issued and outstanding shares beneficially owned by Monex in 3iQ’s holding company, constituting approximately 97% beneficial ownership of 3iQ, are to be exchanged for 27,149,684 newly issued ordinary shares of Coincheck Group. The agreement also contemplates that between signing and closing Coincheck Group will offer the same or substantially equivalent acquisition consideration terms to 3iQ’s minority shareholders, issuing to them in the aggregate up to 810,435 Coincheck Group ordinary shares, which would result in Coincheck Group beneficially owning 100% of 3iQ. Thus far, minority shareholders have joined in the transaction that will result in Coincheck Group acquiring approximately 99.8% ownership of 3iQ. Closing of the transaction, which is subject to customary undertakings and certain conditions, including regulatory approvals and confirmatory due diligence, is expected during the second calendar quarter of 2026.

Non-IFRS financial measures
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
In addition to the Company’s results determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, the Company presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, non-IFRS measures, because the Company believes they are useful in evaluating its operating performance.
EBITDA represents net profit (loss) for the period before the impact of taxes, interest, depreciation, and amortization of intangible assets, and Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA, further adjusted, as follows. Adjusted EBITDA was being calculated differently for the first three quarters of fiscal 2026 than it was previously calculated for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. When the Company announced its financial results on May 13, 2025 for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, the further adjustment to calculate Adjusted EBITDA consisted only of transaction expenses. Beginning with the first quarter for the year ending March 31, 2026 (and for the foreseeable future), in evaluating how Adjusted EBITDA should be calculated, the Company considers, in addition to transaction expenses, the non-cash expenses of (i) share-based compensation, which the Company did not have prior to April 1, 2025, the majority of which consists of Coincheck Group restricted share unit awards granted to two of Coincheck, Inc.’s founders and awards granted related to the Company's December 2024 business combination that resulted in the
Company's listing on Nasdaq, and (ii) change in fair value of warrant liability, which fluctuates quarter to quarter based on the Company’s share price.
The Company uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate its ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes and believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may be helpful to investors because they provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, have limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.
A reconciliation is provided below for each non-IFRS financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Investors are encouraged to review the related IFRS Accounting Standards financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-IFRS financial measures to their most directly comparable IFRS Accounting Standards financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate Coincheck Group’s business.
Please see tables on the following pages for reconciliations of non-IFRS Accounting Standards financial measures.
U.S. Dollar financial information
For the convenience of the reader, where applicable, Coincheck Group has translated U.S. Dollar amounts from Japanese Yen at the exchange rate of ¥156.800 per $1.00, which was the ¥/$ exchange rate reported by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as of December 31, 2025.
This information is intended to be reviewed in conjunction with the Company’s filings with the SEC.

Prior to the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company had no share-based compensation expense. In evaluating how Adjusted EBITDA should be calculated for the first three quarters of fiscal 2026 (and the foreseeable future), the Company considered, in addition to transaction expenses, the non-cash expenses of (i) share-based compensation, the majority of which consisted of Coincheck Group restricted share unit awards granted to two of Coincheck, Inc.’s co-founders, and other restricted share unit awards related to the business combination with Thunder Bridge Capital Partners IV, and (ii) change in fair value of warrant liability, which fluctuates quarter to quarter based on the Company’s share price. The Company believes that showing its EBITDA results, further adjusted to exclude share-based compensation and change in fair value of warrant liability, can present a clearer view of the Company’s operational performance, and is helpful to view together with EBITDA and net profit or loss.
