Greenlane
Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results
BERA
Holdings of 77.7 Million Units at Quarter-End; BERA-per-Share Increased Approximately 44% from Year-End
BOCA
RATON, Fla., May 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Greenlane Holdings, Inc. (“Greenlane” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:
GNLN), a publicly traded company with a digital asset treasury strategy focused on the acquisition, management, and strategic deployment
of BERA, the native token of the Berachain blockchain network, today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March
31, 2026 (“first quarter 2026”).
Digital
Asset Treasury Strategy
In
October 2025, the Company adopted a digital asset treasury strategy (the “BERA Strategy”) focused on the acquisition, management,
and strategic deployment of BERA, the native token of the Berachain blockchain network, following the closing of a $110.7 million private
placement transaction (the “October 2025 private placement”). The Company’s treasury policy is overseen by the Board’s
Digital Asset Committee, and capital deployment under the BERA Strategy is governed by a disciplined approach aimed at increasing long-term
BERA-per-share. Additional information regarding the BERA Strategy and its component activities is set forth in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
During
the first quarter 2026, Greenlane deployed approximately $10.1 million into BERA and BERA-equivalent digital assets and approximately
$4.0 million into stablecoin-related protocol instruments. As of March 31, 2026, the Company held approximately 77.7 million units of
BERA (inclusive of BERA-equivalent tokens) at a cost basis of approximately $68.7 million and a fair value of approximately $34.2 million,
compared to approximately 51.7 million units of BERA at December 31, 2025. BERA-per-share increased to approximately 123 units of BERA
per Class A share at March 31, 2026, from approximately 86 units of BERA per Class A share at December 31, 2025, an increase of approximately
44%. The Company also recognized approximately $0.4 million of staking revenue from participation in Berachain’s Proof of Liquidity
(“PoL”) consensus mechanism.
During
the first quarter 2026, Greenlane Subsidiary Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Token Purchase and Sale Agreement
and a Token Lending Agreement with Berachain Operations Corporation. Under the Token Lending Agreement, the Company may lend USDC and/or
USDT stablecoins to Berachain Operations Corporation to facilitate BERA acquisition activity under the Token Purchase and Sale Agreement,
pursuant to which the Company may request to purchase tranches of BERA tokens. Additional information regarding these arrangements is
included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Management
Commentary
“During
the first quarter of 2026, we advanced execution of our BERA Strategy, growing our holdings to approximately 77.7 million units of BERA
at quarter-end and increasing BERA-per-share by approximately 44%. Our results for the quarter also reflect approximately $2.3 million
of elevated, non-recurring legal, professional, and advisory costs associated with our recent strategic transition. We remain focused
on the disciplined execution of our BERA Strategy and on continued alignment of our cost base with the scale of our remaining operations.”
Jason
Hitchcock, Chief Executive Officer
First
Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights
Net
revenue for the first quarter 2026 was approximately $0.4 million, compared to approximately $1.5 million in the first quarter 2025,
which consisted entirely of legacy wholesale and distribution sales. First quarter 2026 net revenue included approximately $27 thousand
from the Wholesale and Distribution Segment and approximately $421 thousand of staking revenue from the Digital Asset Segment. The year-over-year
decrease was primarily attributable to lower legacy sales volume, partially offset by staking revenue generated from the BERA Strategy.
Loss
from operations was $(5.6) million, compared to $(3.5) million in the first quarter 2025. The 2026 period included approximately $2.3
million of elevated legal, professional, and advisory costs related to the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) compliance
and delisting appeal matters, reverse stock split activities, employment and compensation matters, legacy facility exits, and the termination
of the new facility lease, which are not expected to recur at the same level in future periods. The Company also recognized a non-cash
change in fair value of digital assets of $(12.9) million during the first quarter 2026, primarily driven by market fluctuations in the
price of BERA. Net loss attributable to Greenlane Holdings, Inc. was $(18.4) million, or $(4.49) per Class A share, compared to $(3.9)
million, or $(2.54) per Class A share, in the prior year period.
