DeFi Development Corp. reported Q2 2026 results and a detailed shareholder update focused on Solana (“SOL”) exposure and cost reductions. Revenue was $3,314 thousand, up 66.9% from Q2 2025, driven by Digital Asset Treasury revenue of $3,256 thousand, up 170.1%. However, a sharp swing in digital asset valuation led to a net loss of $27,287 thousand versus prior-year income of $15,432 thousand, with diluted EPS at ($1.00).
As of August 12, 2026, the company held 2,311,523 SOL and SOL equivalents, with fully converted SOL per share (“SPS”) of 0.066, approximately 24% higher than a year earlier.

DeFi Development is using its at-the-market facility to issue about 478 thousand shares for $1 to fund roughly $27 million in annualized cash costs, accepting about a 1.4% SPS dilution so that all SOL yield compounds in the treasury.

DeFi Development Corp. updated its Solana-focused treasury guidance by lowering its SOL per Share (“SPS”) target for June 2026 to 0.085, down from prior guidance of 0.1650. This means the company now expects to hold less SOL per common share by that date than previously planned.
