CEO Commentary

"We closed our first full year as a public company with strong execution against the goals we set coming into 2025," said Fold Chairman and CEO Will Reeves. "In the fourth quarter, revenue was $9.1 million, up 8.2% year-over-year, and for full year 2025 revenue was $31.8 million, up 34% year-over-year. We continued to add customers and expand our platform while building the foundation to scale a Bitcoin-native financial services ecosystem across multiple interconnected product lines."

Mr. Reeves continued, "The most important milestone reached since we last spoke was the launch of the Fold Bitcoin Rewards Credit Card, which began last week with a select launch of the card. The internal team members who worked so hard to bring the card to life were the first to be underwritten and receive their credit lines. This is expected to be followed by a rollout to the loyal customers and fans at the top of our waitlist in the near future. The credit card is a product we believe can have a significant impact on Fold. The card offers up to 4% back on purchases with no categories, and up to 10% back through our rewards network across leading brands, and it is powered by industry leaders Visa and Stripe. More than a new product, it should meaningfully expand our addressable market and strengthen the ecosystem by increasing share of wallet, improving unit economics, and accelerating cross-sell across debit, credit, merchant rewards, exchange, and gift cards."

"Our second major product milestone this quarter was the launch of Fold for Business, an entirely new enterprise service. Partnered with Fold, companies can now include Bitcoin into payroll, bonuses, and corporate financial programs. We've already seen the power of our first product in this line, the Bitcoin Bonus Program, through our flagship partnership with Steak ‘n Shake, in which their thousands of employees can receive Bitcoin bonuses powered by Fold. We look to initiate many more partnerships through the year."

He added, "We strengthened our capital structure by eliminating and extinguishing our two outstanding convertible debt instruments. This simplifies the balance sheet, removes structural overhang, and directs financing solely to the growth of our operating businesses. Importantly, it's a clear directive that Fold's focus is on supporting and expanding our operations and that the company is not a digital asset treasury vehicle. Fold has a collection of innovative products servicing a market which is growing at an extraordinary speed. We believe maximizing this opportunity will create far more value for our shareholders than simply stacking bitcoin."

Mr. Reeves concluded, "With the credit card now live, the launch of an enterprise product, and a cleaner capital structure in place, 2026 is about scaling what we've built across customer acquisition, engagement, cross-sell, and retention. We're confident in our direction, focused on execution, and excited for the year ahead."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

In addition to net loss and other results under GAAP, we utilize non-GAAP calculations of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") to monitor the financial health of our business. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss, excluding (i) interest expense, (ii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) share-based compensation, (v) remeasurement gains and losses such as fair value remeasurements on our digital assets, convertible notes, and SAFE notes, and (vi) impairments, restructuring charges, and business acquisition- or disposition-related expenses that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. This non-GAAP financial information has limitations as an analytical tool when assessing our operating performance, is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature, or because the amount and timing of these items are unpredictable, are not driven by core results of operations, and/or render comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of core operations, as well as providing a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. Moreover, Adjusted EBITDA is a key measurement used by our management internally to make operating decisions, including those related to operating expenses, evaluate performance, and perform strategic planning and annual budgeting.
