SHF Holdings, Inc. (SHFS) reported that its board adopted an amended and restated employee retention structure on August 14, 2026. The amended and restated Retention Plan and related Retention Agreement (together, the A&R Retention Plan Documents) replace the prior director-and-employee plan approved July 29, 2026.
Under the new terms, directors are no longer eligible for Retention Incentives, and all director retention agreements were canceled ab initio. Eligible employees may receive a Retention Incentive, generally a designated percentage of base salary, upon a qualifying Change in Control and may receive a base-salary increase during periods of Insolvency, subject to conditions. The chief executive officer’s determination of Insolvency now requires board approval.
The definition of Change in Control was amended to remove shareholder-approved liquidation of substantially all net assets, so the plan does not pay retention benefits in that scenario. Payments are conditioned on the employee executing and not revoking a general release of claims in favor of the company and its successors.
SHF Holdings, Inc. (Safe Harbor Financial) reported second quarter 2026 revenue of $1.93 million, up 4.8% year over year, driven mainly by a 50.7% increase in loan program income to about $0.8 million. Average deposit balances rose 6.8% to $108.4 million, and average account balances increased 6.3%, reflecting traction from enhanced marketing and a customer-focused growth strategy.
Despite higher revenue and a $0.4 million credit benefit, the company posted a wider net loss of $1.51 million versus $0.93 million a year earlier, and total operating expenses for the quarter increased to $2.96 million. Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $(2.49) million, including a $0.98 million non-cash deemed dividend tied to induced conversions of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. Cash and cash equivalents declined to $5.73 million and stockholders’ equity to $6.10 million as of June 30, 2026.
Strategically, Safe Harbor expanded its board, launched a cannabis-focused pooled employer 401(k) plan, and later introduced an Institutional Infrastructure-as-a-Service model for financial institutions. During a temporary reduction period, holders converted 3,198 Series B preferred shares into 4,920,008 common shares, which the company states simplified its capital structure.
SHF Holdings, Inc., doing business as Safe Harbor Financial, implemented retention agreements for its directors and senior executives and reported capital structure changes tied to its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.

Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer Terrance Mendez will receive a $500,000 Change in Control bonus and a $700,000 base salary during Insolvency, while Chief Marketing Officer Jeffrey Kay and Chief Operating Officer Michael Regan are eligible for Change in Control bonuses of $250,000 and $200,000 and Insolvency-period base salaries of $350,000 and $280,000, respectively.
The resignation of Principal Accounting Officer and Senior Vice President of Finance, Controller Douglas Beck has been delayed until after the company files its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, expected on or before August 14, 2026. The temporary reduction in the conversion price of Series B Preferred Stock and the exercise price of associated warrants ended effective July 31, 2026, with both prices reverting to $1.5528. During the reduction period, holders converted 3,198 Series B Preferred shares into 4,920,005 common shares, resulting in 12,332,955 common shares and 27,134 Series B Preferred shares outstanding; no Series B Warrants were exercised.
SHF Holdings, Inc. reports that on July 29, 2026, its board of directors approved a retention plan for key employees and directors of the company and its subsidiaries, together with a standard form retention agreement for use with awards under the plan.
Under this Retention Plan, eligible participants may receive a Retention Incentive equal to a designated percentage of their base salary or annual board fees if a Change in Control occurs, and an increase to base salary or board fees during a period of Insolvency. Payment of any Retention Incentive is conditioned on execution, delivery and non-revocation of a general release of claims in favor of the company and its successors. The plan and form agreement are filed as exhibits.

Loan program income rose 55.6% to roughly $0.8 million, reflecting a richer share of loan economics under the Second Amended PCCU agreement.
Total operating expenses decreased 4.7% to about $3.7 million, but the company recorded a larger net loss of approximately $1.8 million versus $0.8 million in the prior-year quarter, mainly because last year included a $1.1 million non-cash warrant liability benefit. Safe Harbor ended March 31, 2026 with $5.9 million in cash and cash equivalents and $6.7 million of stockholders’ equity, compared with a stockholders’ deficit of $16.9 million twelve months earlier, highlighting a major balance sheet turnaround.
Management highlighted a broadened product suite, including new insurance offerings, an expanded payments portfolio, and a full-spectrum lending platform. A February 2026 PCCU amendment extended the partnership through December 2031 and is expected to generate $9 million or more in incremental revenue over the term.

The company is adding products such as commercial real estate financing, working capital loans, equipment financing, cash flow lending, bridge loans, sale-leasebacks, business acquisition financing, and loan syndications.
Safe Harbor works with private credit funds, family offices and institutional partners to match qualified cannabis operators, ancillary businesses and investors with capital sources. The expansion follows a cannabis-focused 401(k) launch and supports the firm’s broader goal of providing integrated banking, payments, financial operations support and growth capital on a single platform, while reiterating standard forward-looking statement cautions.
SHF Holdings, Inc. received a Nasdaq notice that its Class A common stock has closed below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days, triggering a 180-day grace period until October 19, 2026 to regain compliance by maintaining a bid of at least $1.00 for 10 straight trading days.

SHF Holdings, Inc., doing business as Safe Harbor, announced the launch of the Safe Harbor Retirement Plan, a pooled employer 401(k) plan built specifically for state-legal cannabis businesses and companies that serve them. The plan aims to give cannabis employers and employees more stable, compliant access to retirement benefits, using collective investment trusts structured to fit applicable laws.
This new retirement offering broadens Safe Harbor’s financial solutions platform, which already includes employee banking and payroll and HR support through acquired and partnered providers. The first adopting employer is Safe Harbor itself. The company notes it has facilitated more than $35.4 billion in cannabis-related transactions across 41 states and territories through its Cannabis Banking Solutions platform and partner financial institutions.
SHF Holdings, Inc., which operates as Safe Harbor Financial, reported 2025 results showing a major balance sheet turnaround but weaker revenue and profitability. The company eliminated substantially all of its about $18 million of debt in a September 30, 2025 recapitalization and ended 2025 with $6.8 million in cash and cash equivalents.
Total stockholders’ equity improved to a positive $8.2 million at December 31, 2025, compared with a stockholders’ deficit of $(12.3) million a year earlier, while total liabilities fell to $9.0 million from $25.5 million. Working capital moved from a deficit to a surplus of about $5.7 million.
On the income side, full-year 2025 revenue was $7.7 million, down from $15.2 million in 2024, and the company recorded a net loss of $2.2 million versus a $48.3 million loss in 2024 that included a very large tax expense and impairment charges. Adjusted EBITDA declined to a $(3.9) million loss from a $2.9 million gain. However, in the fourth quarter of 2025, loan program income rose 70% sequentially, total revenue grew 12% from the third quarter, and operating expenses declined 10% after excluding a success-based employee bonus, signaling improving operating leverage as the company expands beyond core banking and lending into insurance, payments, and consulting solutions.
SHF Holdings, Inc. d/b/a Safe Harbor Financial reported preliminary unaudited 2025 results showing total revenue of $7, down 50% from $15 in 2024. Deposit and activity income fell to $4 from $6, loan program income to $2 from $6, and investment income to $1 from $2.
In Q4 2025, total revenue was $2, up from $1 in Q3 2025, a 12% sequential increase tied to improved terms under the Second Amended Commercial Alliance Agreement with PCCU, which raised the Company’s loan program income share to up to 65% and extended the relationship through December 31, 2031.
Safe Harbor’s balance sheet strengthened, with cash and cash equivalents rising to $6 from $2 and total debt falling to $0 from $18, following a September 2025 recapitalization that eliminated approximately $18.3 million of debt and raised $6.8 million of new capital.

SHF Holdings, Inc., doing business as Safe Harbor Financial, entered a Second Amended and Restated Commercial Alliance Agreement with Partner Colorado Credit Union, extending their core partnership through December 31, 2031 with automatic two‑year renewals.
The amended agreement changes loan economics so Safe Harbor can receive up to 65% of net interest income on covered loans while indemnifying up to 65% of default-related losses, with PCCU covering the remaining 35%. A prior 1.0% flat asset hosting fee is replaced by a sliding scale from 0.50% on deposits under $25 million to 1.25% on deposits over $125 million.
In a related press release, Safe Harbor estimates about $9 million of incremental revenue and more than $1.5 million of total cost savings over the revised 6.25‑year term, plus a retroactive payment of approximately $400,000 from PCCU. Safe Harbor must also escrow its key software source code, which PCCU can license if specified default or insolvency events occur.

The total purchase commitment may be increased by mutual agreement up to an aggregate of $500,000,000, with SHF issuing additional preferred "CREO Commitment Shares" equal to 0.75% of each $100,000,000 increase.

SHF Holdings, Inc. filed an amended current report to update its earlier disclosure about a restatement of its financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The amendment clarifies that the board’s Audit Committee discussed the restatement with Macias Gini & O’Connell LLP, the company’s independent auditor.
The company previously concluded that its unaudited consolidated financial statements for this period, and related communications, should no longer be relied upon because stock-based compensation expense was calculated using incorrect inputs in the Black‑Scholes option pricing model, specifically the expected term and stock price. Correcting this error is expected to increase operating expenses and net loss for the quarter by about $500,000, and restated financial statements were filed in an amended Form 10‑Q.
SHF Holdings, Inc. reported that its previously issued unaudited financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025 can no longer be relied upon.

The company expects this correction to increase previously reported operating expenses and net loss for that quarter by approximately $500,000. SHF Holdings plans to restate the affected financial statements by filing an amended Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 as soon as practicable.
