PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Solana Company (NASDAQ: HSDT) (the “Company” or “HSDT”), a publicly listed digital asset treasury, infrastructure, and services company providing institutional access to the Solana ecosystem, today announced its results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.

The third quarter was defined by streamlined operations and the expansion of its treasury holdings. The Company generated $3.4 million in revenue as its self-reinforcing flywheel began to turn, reducing operating costs to their lowest level yet. Headlining the quarter, the Company priced an approximately $15 million registered direct offering at a 5% premium to net asset value per share and used the proceeds to purchase approximately 125 thousand SOL.

Third Quarter Operational Highlights

• Pacific Backbone moved from build-out to operation, with approximately 1.3 million SOL of total stake delegated as of September 30, 2026, including 1.0 million SOL delegated by third parties.
• Achieved an average net staking yield of 5.9% APY on treasury holdings, outperforming the Solana network average of approximately 4.9% APY by 100 basis points.
• Held approximately 2.4 million SOL across all categories, with a fair value of approximately $288.2 million as of September 30, 2026.
• Diluted share count on a Treasury Stock Method basis was approximately 85.2 million shares which equates to 0.0274 SOL per Treasury Stock Method diluted shares
• Participated in Solana’s first onchain governance vote, publishing the Company’s positions in advance so that delegators could vote with full knowledge of their operator’s view.
• Delivered over 40 institutional education sessions and advisory workshops with banks, asset managers and exchanges across Asia-Pacific.
  
  

Joseph Chee, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Solana Company, said:

“This was a milestone quarter for Solana Company. Our Pacific Backbone infrastructure went live, institutions entrusted us with a million SOL of third-party stake, and that confidence is already flowing through to our revenue. Every turn of our flywheel is now picking up speed. We are building the bridge that brings Asia’s financial institutions onto Solana, and with our new headquarters in Hong Kong, we will be building it right where the demand is. We could not be more excited about the road ahead.”

Cosmo Jiang, General Partner at Pantera Capital and board director at Solana Company, said:

“The third quarter showed exactly what sets Solana Company apart. We beat the network’s staking yield by a full percentage point, and put both sides of our capital toolkit to work, buying back shares below NAV and raising capital above it. Owning SOL is a great start. Owning a company that keeps adding more SOL behind every share is even better, and that is the opportunity we are delivering for our shareholders.”

Third Quarter Financial Highlights

• Generated $3.4 million in revenue, driven primarily by staking revenue on the Company’s SOL holdings, bringing year-to-date revenue to $9.5 million.
• Earned 30.8 thousand SOL in staking rewards, which were automatically restaked to compound returns.
• Repurchased approximately $2.8 million of Class A common stock (1.4 million shares) during the quarter, bringing year-to-date repurchases to approximately $8.7 million.
