CEO commentary

Jean-Marie Mognetti, Co-Founder, President and Chief Executive Officer of CoinShares, said:

“2025 was a year in which the platform we have been building for more than a decade continued to compound. Our growth in management fees and Segment EBITDA showed a combination of revenue growth, margin discipline and pricing power. We kept our yield stable at approximately 170 basis points in an industry defined by fee compression — a function of product mix, pricing discipline and the quality of the client base we serve.

CoinShares Physical was ranked #1 in Europe by net inflows in 2025, active alternative strategies continued to scale, and we closed the year with a net asset position of $477.0 million. CoinShares is continuing to leverage its incumbent leadership position in Europe to drive growth in AUM and profitability. 

Our April 1, 2026, listing on Nasdaq marks another step in our journey to convert CoinShares into a global asset management franchise.” 

Profitability

Operating income for FY2025 was $127.0 million, compared to $125.0 million in FY2024, an increase of 1.6%. Operating expenses (inclusive of cost of revenue) were $70.7 million, down 2.9% from $72.8 million in FY2024, reflecting a focus on cost control year on year 

Segment EBITDA for FY2025 was $131.3 million, compared to $124.6 million in FY2024, an increase of 6.7%. Segment EBITDA margin was approximately 66% for the year (calculated on revenue and gains from operations) , reflecting the structural profitability of a scaled, regulated platform coupled with the Company's disciplined cost base.

Net income for FY2025 was $114.3 million, compared to $162.4 million in FY2024. The year-over-year comparison is mainly affected by three items: (i) a $36.8 million gain recognized in FY2024 on the sale of the Company's FTX bankruptcy claim; (ii) approximately $4.3 million of non-recurring transaction costs incurred in FY2025 in connection with the Company's business combination with Vine Hill Capital Investment Corp. and U.S. Nasdaq listing, and (iii) an unrealised gain of $15.8 million in FY2024 arising from the movement on the differential between ETP trading prices and the underlying digital asset exposure.

Revenue & gains from operations

Total Revenue and Gains from Operations for FY2025 was $197.6 million, compared to $197.8 million in FY2024. On a segment basis:

• Asset Management. Asset Management revenue grew 13.1% to $126.4 million, up from $111.7 million in FY2024. Growth was driven by continued inflows into CoinShares Physical, combined with disciplined pricing across the platform. On an average AUM basis, blended Asset Management yield was approximately 170 basis points, broadly stable versus the prior year — a notable result in a period during which both European and U.S. crypto ETP providers have faced material fee compression.

• Capital Markets. Capital Markets revenue and gains decreased by $9.6 million, or 11.6%, to $73.1 million in 2025. A significant portion of this decrease was driven by a lower positive unrealised impact from pricing differentials between ETP trading prices and the underlying digital asset exposure ($1.6 million vs. $15.8 million in 2024). Excluding these non-operational, market-driven movements, underlying Capital Markets performance increased by 6.9% year-on-year, with strong staking revenues, lending revenues and trading gains.

Yield and fee discipline

In FY2025, several major digital asset ETP issuers, including U.S.-listed spot bitcoin and ether ETFs, lowered headline management fees in response to competitive pressure. Against this backdrop, CoinShares' blended asset management yield remained broadly stable at approximately 170 basis points on an average quarterly asset basis, consistent with approximately 170 basis points in FY2024. This resilience, achieved during a period of material fee compression on comparable passive products across European and U.S. crypto ETP markets, reflects the Company's differentiated product design, continued innovation across its ETP, the reach and quality of its institutional distribution platform, and disciplined pricing.

Capital Markets activities continued to contribute a meaningful yield on associated assets, reinforcing the Company's differentiated model combining regulated asset management with integrated trading and treasury operations.

Assets under management and flows

Average gross assets under management were approximately $7.4 billion during FY2025. Net organic inflows into the business were approximately $1.1 billion, with CoinShares Physical — Europe's #1 digital asset ETP by net inflows in 2025 (source: ETFbook, European-domiciled crypto ETPs). This growth is driving substantial ongoing diversification of the Group's AUM base. Unlike many competitors in the digital asset investment sector, as the Company's newer product lines have grown, its blended realized management fee has remained remarkably stable over multi-year periods, a testament to the innovation of its product offerings, the strength of its distribution platform, and strong client demand. This combination underscores both the resilience of the Company's business model and its ability to deliver profitable growth.

Strategic positioning

CoinShares enters 2026 as one of the few asset management companies in Europe to hold both MiFID and MiCA authorisations. This dual licence uniquely positions the Company to operate across the full spectrum of regulated digital asset investment — from passive physically-backed ETPs, to active alternative strategies, to institutional-grade products distributed natively on blockchain infrastructure.

With CoinShares Valkyrie providing a U.S. foundation, European retail access to crypto ETPs expanding in the United Kingdom, France and Italy in 2025 and a growing active alternatives franchise, the Company is positioned to serve a broadening institutional, professional and retail client base across Europe and, increasingly, the United States.

Market context & competitive positioning

CoinShares continues to leverage its incumbent leadership position in Europe to drive growth in AUM and profitability. In FY2025, many asset managers focused on digital assets — including several crypto-native pure players — experienced net outflows and significant margin compression, particularly on U.S. spot bitcoin and ether products. Over the same period, CoinShares delivered continued net inflows, stable blended yields, and margin expansion, demonstrating the strength of a regulated, diversified platform built around institutional-grade product design and distribution.

Recent events — Nasdaq listing

On April 1, 2026, CoinShares began trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market in the United States under the ticker “CSHR” after completing its previously announced business combination with Vine Hill Capital Investment Corp. The listing is expected to support the build-out of CoinShares’ international franchise, including the continued development of its existing U.S offering.

Non-GAAP financial measures

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Revenue and Other Gains from Operations, Capital Markets Revenue and Gains and Available Capital Position.

Revenues and gains from operations is comprises revenues derived from the issuance and management of the Group’s Asset Management Products, income generated from certain Capital Markets activities (including lending and staking), and net gains or losses arising from trading and hedging activities conducted using the Group’s balance sheet.

Capital Markets Revenue and Gains comprise revenues generated from the Company’s Capital Markets activities, including staking, lending, in addition to gains, and other related income. This measure may include unrealised impacts arising from differences between ETP trading prices and underlying digital asset exposure, which are driven by market dynamics and may not be indicative of underlying operational performance, which is removed from Segment EBITDA.

Available Capital Position represents the Company’s total assets less total liabilities, adjusted to reflect the economic value of digital asset holdings and related exposures. This measure includes the cumulative unrealised impact of differences between ETP trading prices and the underlying digital asset exposure. Management uses this metric to assess the Group’s liquidity and capital resources available to support operations and growth.

Management believes these measures are useful information to help investors evaluate the Company’s operating performance because it enables investors to compare these measures and component adjustments to the Company’s past financial performance and provide additional company-specific adjustments for certain items that may be included in income from operations but that management does not consider to be normal, recurring, operating expenses (or income) necessary to operate the business. Management believes non-GAAP financial measures are useful to measure the operating performance without regard to items that can vary significantly from period to period and may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of the Company’s business operations. These measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Although not a non-GAAP measure, the measure of profitability that the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) uses to assess segment performance and allocate resources is segment EBITDA. Segment EBITDA excludes share-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, interest income, interest expense, gain/(loss) on treasury digital assets, fair value gain/loss on investments, impairment of equity method investments, ETP pricing differentials and non-recurring items such as income from the sale of an FTX claim. The Group’s Segment EBITDA was reconciled to income before income taxes, and it is presented in the tables below. In evaluating segment results, the CODM is regularly provided with information on the following significant expense categories at the segment level: cost of revenue, salaries and employee benefits, professional fees, marketing expenses, and technology expenses.
