The firm&#8217;s net loss amounted to 114.5 billion yen ($725.6 million) due to the decline in the price of the leading cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the overall loss, the company&#8217;s operational metrics improved. Revenue increased by 251.1% compared to the previous year, reaching 3.08 billion yen ($19.5 million).<\/p>\n<p>Operating profit was 2.3 billion yen ($14.4 million). The main drivers of growth were income from bitcoin options strategies and the hotel business.<\/p>\n<p>The negative net result is attributed to accounting rules. Due to the decline in bitcoin&#8217;s price at the end of the quarter, the company recorded an unrealized loss from asset revaluation of 116.4 billion yen ($737.6 million). Metaplanet emphasized that these are merely short-term market fluctuations.<\/p>\n<p>During the reporting period, the firm acquired 5075 BTC. As of March 31, the total balance was estimated at 40,177 BTC. Currently, Metaplanet controls about 87% of all bitcoins held by public companies in Japan. Globally, it ranks third among corporate holders, behind Strategy and Twenty One Capital.<\/p>\n<p>Metaplanet plans to continue increasing its reserves of digital gold. The company employs stock issuance and debt financing, including a $500 million credit line secured by cryptocurrency, to achieve this.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>&#8220;We will continue to accumulate bitcoin and allocate capital in a disciplined manner,&#8221; stated representatives of the organization.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The forecast for 2026 remains unchanged: the company expects to achieve 16 billion yen in revenue and 11.4 billion yen in operating profit. The yield on bitcoin assets for the past quarter was 2.8%.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Upexi&#8217;s Losses<\/h2>\n<p>The American company Upexi <a href=\"https:\/\/ir.upexi.com\/news-events\/press-releases\/detail\/159\/upexi-reports-fiscal-third-quarter-2026-financial-results\">published<\/a> its financial report for the third quarter. The volume of <a href=\"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/news\/what-is-solana-sol\">Solana<\/a> on the platform&#8217;s balance sheet increased by 189,000 coins.<\/p>\n<p>As of March 31, Upexi&#8217;s total reserves exceeded 2.2 million SOL. During the reporting period, the company increased its token holdings by 9% through purchases and rewards from <a href=\"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/news\/what-is-staking-and-how-to-make-money-from-it\">staking<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Quarterly revenue from digital assets was $3.5 million. However, the firm&#8217;s net loss reached $109.3 million. Management attributed these figures to a revaluation of cryptocurrencies amounting to $92.3 million based on the market rate at the end of the period.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the paper losses, Upexi reduced its short-term debt by $7.6 million and repurchased 2.5 million of its own shares from the market. The workforce was optimized to 10 employees to lower operational costs.<\/p>\n<p>The company anticipates that by July, income from Solana staking will fully cover expenses and interest payments.<\/p>\n<p>Upexi CEO Allan Marshall emphasized that the strategy of accumulating the &#8220;people&#8217;s cryptocurrency&#8221; remains a priority. According to him, Solana&#8217;s high performance and institutional recognition will help create long-term value for shareholders.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, MARA&#8217;s quarterly loss <a href=\"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/news\/mara-reports-1-3-billion-quarterly-loss\">amounted to<\/a> $1.3 billion (compared to $533 million a year earlier).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The public company Metaplanet released its financial report for the first quarter.
