HYPERLIQUID STRATEGIES INC
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND LIQUIDITY
Organization and General
Hyperliquid Strategies Inc (the "Company" or "HSI"), a Delaware corporation, is a digital asset treasury company with a focus on building, managing, and optimizing its treasury with HYPE digital assets. The Company was created on July 2, 2025. In August 2025, the Company incorporated a wholly owned entity in the Cayman Islands, Rorschach Cayman LLC ("Rorschach Cayman"). The Company owns all of the equity and has unilateral control over Rorschach Cayman and as such consolidates the entity under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 810, "Consolidation." The Company has selected June 30 as its fiscal year end.
On July 11, 2025, Sonnet BioTherapeutics Holdings, Inc. ("Sonnet"), the Company, Rorschach I LLC ("Rorschach"), Sonnet Merger Sub Inc., and Rorschach Merger Sub LLC entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as subsequently amended, the "BCA") pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions contained in the BCA, (i) Rorschach Merger Sub LLC would merge with and into Rorschach (the "Rorschach Merger") with Rorschach surviving the Rorschach Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and (ii) immediately following the Rorschach Merger, Sonnet Merger Sub Inc. would merge with and into Sonnet (the "Sonnet Merger"), with Sonnet surviving the Sonnet Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
On December 2, 2025, the closing of the transactions contemplated by the BCA was completed (the "Closing," and such date, the "Closing Date"). Prior to the Closing, Rorschach owned 100% of the Company. The combination of Rorschach and HSI was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization (the "Reverse Recapitalization"), with Rorschach surviving as the accounting acquirer. Under the Reverse Recapitalization, the assets and liabilities of HSI were recorded at historical cost. No goodwill or intangible assets were recognized. Consequently, the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect the operations of Rorschach for accounting purposes, and together with the financial position and results of operations of HSI and Sonnet subsequent to the Closing Date.
The overall business combination of the Company, Rorschach and Sonnet was a strategic realignment of HSI as a blockchain-focused entity.
On March 31, 2026, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the "APA") with Guidant Bio Therapeutics Inc. ("Guidant"). In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the APA on that date, the Company transferred $1.325 million in cash, various developmental assets and patents related to its tumor delivery platforms, certain employees and its Australian subsidiary to Guidant, and subsequently in accordance with the terms of the APA provided an additional $1.0 million upon execution of definitive investment agreements. In exchange, the Company received a 40% common stock interest in Guidant. In connection with the APA, the Company engaged Guidant under a transaction services agreement (the "TSA") to provide services to the Company for fees of $0.175 million, paid at the closing of the APA.
The Company's primary strategy is building, managing, and optimizing its treasury with HYPE tokens, which are the native digital assets of the Hyperliquid Layer-1 blockchain.
HSI's Common Stock (as defined in Note 8) is listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange under the ticker symbol "PURR" and began trading on December 3, 2025; on the same day, Sonnet's common stock ceased to trade.
Liquidity and Going Concern Considerations
Under ASC Subtopic 205-40, "Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern", the Company has the responsibility to evaluate whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about its ability to meet future financial obligations as they become due within one year after the date that these financial statements are issued.
Based on the Company's current financial condition and forecast of cash flow needs for the next twelve months, management expects that the Company's existing resources will be sufficient to enable the Company to fund its anticipated level of operations through one year from the date these interim financial statements were issued.
The Company plans to continue to pursue additional methods to obtain funding for working capital in the future, however, such funding may not be available to the Company. Although management believes that such capital sources will continue to be available, there can be no assurances that additional working capital will be available to the Company when needed, or if available, on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain capital on terms that are satisfactory to the Company, when the Company requires it, the Company's ability to continue to grow or support the business and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited, which may adversely affect the Company's business plans.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company's financial condition is substantially dependent on the market price and liquidity of HYPE tokens as the Company's treasury assets are concentrated in cash and HYPE tokens. HYPE tokens are the native cryptocurrency of the Hyperliquid Layer 1 blockchain. HYPE tokens have experienced significant price volatility, and the Company's financial results and carrying value of its HYPE tokens will fluctuate materially based on HYPE token price movements. The Company depends on the success and adoption of the Hyperliquid Layer 1 blockchain for the value of its treasury holdings in HYPE tokens. The HYPE tokens owned by the Company represented approximately 16% of the outstanding circulating supply as of September 30, 2026.
Additionally, substantially all of the Company's HYPE tokens are held with a single custodian, and therefore the ability to access the HYPE tokens is driven by the custodian's ability to comply with contractual requirements in keeping the tokens secure. To the extent a private key, held by the Custodian, required to access a HYPE address is lost, destroyed or otherwise compromised and no backup of the private key is accessible, the Company may be unable to access the relevant HYPE address controlled by the private key and the private key will not be capable of being restored by the network.
5
The processes by which the HYPE transactions are settled are dependent on the peer-to-peer network of Hyperliquid, and as such, the Company is subject to operational risk. A risk also exists with respect to currently unknown technical vulnerabilities, which may adversely affect the value of HYPE.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial information, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and the notes thereto filed with the SEC in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026. There have been no significant changes in the Company's accounting policies since June 30, 2026.
Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.
As discussed in Note 1, the combination of Rorschach and HSI was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with Rorschach surviving as the accounting acquirer. Consequently, the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect the operations of Rorschach for accounting purposes, together with the financial position and results of operations of HSI and Sonnet subsequent to the Closing Date.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and interest-bearing highly liquid investments, such as money market funds, that are not restricted as to withdrawal or use, or treasury bills with an initial maturity of three months or less.
Cash and cash equivalents are primarily placed with financial institutions which are of high credit quality. These instruments may be in the form of corporate deposits, which may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit of $250,000, and in highly liquid, highly rated instruments which are uninsured. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to these accounts.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Rorschach, Rorschach Cayman, HypeStrat Markets LLC and Sonnet. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act"). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act, until such time as those standards apply to private companies.
The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that it is no longer an emerging growth company or affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, these condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of issuers who are required to comply with the effective dates for new or revised accounting standards based on public company effective dates.
Segment Reporting
The Company complies with ASC 280, "Segment Reporting", which establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise where discrete financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Refer to Note 5 for additional information on the Company's identification of operating segments.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Estimates are assessed each period and updated to reflect current information. Significant estimates include valuation of financial instruments, valuation of digital assets, valuation of equity issued as compensation and valuation allowances for income taxes.

Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, "Income Taxes" ("ASC 740"). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. With limited operating history, the Company has recognized a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.
The Company recognized a deferred tax liability and a corresponding deferred tax expense of $37.8 million in connection with the receipt of HYPE from certain investors at the Closing. As of September 30, 2026, the Company's deferred tax liability and corresponding provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was $355.2 million and $172.3 million, respectively, related to the difference between the fair value of the HYPE tokens and their tax basis from either a contribution or an acquisition. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21% and 0% for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, primarily due to non-deductible costs as well as a valuation allowance on any deferred tax assets or net operating losses (NOLs) where the Company does not have sufficient existing taxable income to support such assets.
While ASC 740 identifies usage of an effective annual tax rate for purposes of an interim provision, it does allow for estimating individual elements in the current period if they are significant, unusual or infrequent. Computing the effective tax rate for the Company is complicated due to the potential impact of the timing of any expenses and the actual income that will be recognized during the year. The Company has taken a position as to the calculation of income tax expense in a current period based on ASC 740-270-25-3 which states, "If an entity is unable to estimate a part of its ordinary income or loss or the related tax provision or benefit but is otherwise able to make a reasonable estimate, the tax provision or benefit applicable to the item that cannot be estimated shall be reported in the interim period in which the item is reported." The Company believes its calculation to be a reliable estimate and allows it to properly take into account the usual elements that can impact its annualized book income and its impact on the effective tax rate. As such, the Company is computing its taxable income or loss and associated income tax provision or benefit based on actual results for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.
Valuation allowances are established when the Company has concluded that it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets are not realizable. The Company's ability to realize its remaining deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, is primarily dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income of the proper character in future years. Management has concluded that there is not sufficient positive evidence to support the expected realization of certain deferred tax assets related to the Company's net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, primarily due to Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limitations.
ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.
The Company has identified the United States as its only "major" tax jurisdiction. Rorschach Cayman is a Cayman Islands limited liability company and is not considered to have a connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. There are no other tax jurisdictions that are considered material to the Company.
The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. These examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal and state tax laws. As of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, no tax audits were commenced nor in process.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was signed into law which, among other things, provided a permanent extension of certain tax measures initially established under the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which were set to expire at the end of 2025, and modified tax legislation affecting bonus depreciation rules and the tax treatment of research and development expenses and interest deductions. Specifically, the OBBBA provides for 100% bonus depreciation and eliminates the requirement under Internal Revenue Code Section 174 to capitalize and amortize U.S. based research and experimental expenditures over five years, making these expenditures fully deductible in the period incurred beginning after 2024.
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires incremental annual income tax disclosures. This amendment includes disclosures of specific categories in the rate reconciliation and additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold; income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes, and also disaggregated by individual jurisdictions that meet a quantitative threshold; income (or loss) from continuing operations before income tax expenses (or benefit) disaggregated between domestic and foreign; and income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations disaggregated by federal, state and foreign. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 on July 1, 2026 on a prospective basis, with an immaterial impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
Digital Assets
The Company's digital assets, which are custodied at a qualified custodian, primarily consist of HYPE tokens (the Hyperliquid Layer-1 blockchain network's utility token). HYPE digital assets are accounted for in accordance with ASC 350-60, "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Crypto Assets" ("ASC 350-60"). HYPE digital assets are initially recorded at cost and then subsequently remeasured at fair value as of the balance sheet date with changes in fair value recognized as unrealized gains or losses in operating income (expense). Upon derecognition of HYPE digital assets, the Company recognizes realized gains or losses in operating income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statements of operations, based upon the fair value of HYPE digital assets on the date and time of derecognition. The Company tracks its cost basis of digital assets by wallet in accordance with the specific identification method of accounting. HYPE digital assets are valued using prices as reported on the Company's principal market exchange as of the date
7
of determination, and one second before midnight UTC as of the end of the reporting period. The price of HYPE as of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026 was $90.99 and $65.04, respectively.
U.S. Dollar Coin
The Company holds U.S. Dollar Coin ("USDC"), a reserve-backed stablecoin issued by Circle Internet Financial, Inc. that is designed to maintain a 1:1 value with the U.S. dollar and is commonly used as a method of payment in digital asset markets. On its condensed consolidated balance sheets, the Company classifies its USDC in "prepaids and other current assets" rather than as part of its digital assets subject to ASC 350-60 because the holdings are readily convertible into known amounts of U.S. dollars, are redeemable or exchangeable on demand, and are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value due to USDC's intended 1:1 peg to the U.S. dollar, resulting in classification as a financial instrument.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value accounting is applied for all financial instruments and non-financial instruments that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis, at least annually. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.
A three-level valuation hierarchy, based upon observable and unobservable inputs, is used for fair value measurements. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions based on the best evidence available. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
The categorization of financial instruments and non-financial instruments within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Fair value measurements are based on one or more of the following three valuation techniques:
The carrying amounts of financial instruments carried at cost, including cash and cash equivalents, other current assets (including USDC), accounts payable, and other current liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturities of such instruments.
Equity Method Investment
The Company accounts for its investment in which it has the ability to exercise significant influence over the investee's operating and financial policies in accordance with ASC 323, "Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures". ASC 323 prescribes the use of the equity method for investments where the Company has significant influence. Equity method investments are recorded at cost and are adjusted to recognize (1) the Company's share, based on percent ownership, of the investee's net income or loss after the date of the investment, (2) amortization of the recorded investment that exceeds the Company's share of the book value of the investee's net assets, (3) additional contributions made and dividends received, and (4) impairments resulting from non-temporary declines in fair value.
Revenue
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC 606") by following the five prescribed steps -- identify the contract, identify the performance obligation, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation and determine when to recognize revenue. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services (i.e., performance obligations) to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for promised goods or services.
Staking Revenue
The Company earns staking rewards from the process by which it locks or delegates its HYPE tokens to a validator to support the security, consensus and operations of the Hyperliquid network, in exchange for potential rewards and other benefits. A contract with enforceable rights and obligations exists when the Company delegates its tokens to the validator. The contract term commences at the moment the Company delegates its HYPE tokens to a validator and runs from that period until the next block commences, and continues until the Company undelegates. Staking rewards are recognized as revenue when the Company satisfies its performance obligations (i.e., providing our tokens to the validator in order to validate blocks or transactions as
8
determined by the protocol) ratably over the contract term. Staking rewards for HYPE tokens are calculated on-chain, where the annual reward rate is inversely proportional to the square root of the total HYPE tokens staked across the network. Staking rewards accrue and are earned on a block by block basis and are distributed to the Company on a daily basis. The HYPE tokens earned are non-cash consideration and therefore measured at fair value at the inception of each contract.
The Company engages third party counterparties and its own validator to stake its HYPE holdings. These parties keep a percentage of any staking yield earned as a fee and pass on the remainder to HSI. Because the Company does not unilaterally control any validator it stakes its tokens to, the Company is not the principal to the validation service. As such, the Company presents delegated staking rewards as revenue on a net basis, reflecting only the portion of protocol rewards to which it is entitled. The Company recognized $12.1 million and $0.0 million of staking income during the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, which is included within "staking and validator commission revenue" on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Validator Commission Income
On May 13, 2026, the Company launched a validator node on the Hyperliquid network in partnership with Nexus Research Labs, Inc., parent of Unit Labs ("Unit"), a digital asset infrastructure and staking services provider, as "Hyperliquid Strategies x Unit" (the "Validator"). The Validator operates within the HyperCore infrastructure and participates in the HyperBFT consensus mechanism, producing blocks and validating transactions alongside the network's existing active validators. The Validator is able to accept delegations from both the Company and third-party HYPE holders (the customers). The newly launched Validator operations are subject to the same performance standards, jailing criteria, and uptime requirements applicable to all Hyperliquid validators. Under the arrangement, Unit is responsible for the day-to-day technical operation of the validator infrastructure under a service level agreement with the Company and the Company exercises direct oversight on validator performance and compliance with its internal staking risk management framework. The Validator earns commissions, paid in HYPE tokens, for its services.
Based on the terms of the contract with Unit, the Company concluded that it does not control the operations at the Validator, and therefore the Company is not the principal to the arrangement with the Validator's customers. Accordingly, validator commission income is recognized on a net basis in "staking and validator commission revenue" on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations, reflecting only the portion of protocol rewards and commission to which the Company is entitled after amounts payable to Unit under the arrangement.
Derivatives
Warrants
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant's specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC Topic 480, "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity" ("ASC 480") and ASC Topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC 815"). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company's own Common Stock and whether the warrant holders could potentially require "net cash settlement" in a circumstance outside of the Company's control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance. Warrants classified as equity instruments are initially recognized at fair value and are not subsequently remeasured. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Company accounts for the warrants issued to former Sonnet stockholders and the three warrants issued to the Advisor (as defined in Note 6) (the "Advisor Warrants") as equity, except in certain limited circumstances where the holder has the right to receive cash in certain contingent situations. The fair value of any unexercised warrants where this contingent right exists is nominal.
Equity Facility
The Company's Equity Facility (see Note 8, section "Equity Facility") is considered an equity-linked contract and also a derivative accounted for under ASC 815. During the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized $15.3 million and $0.0 million, respectively, of other expenses related primarily to the change in the price of the Company's equity at the time of entering into the forward (trade date) and the price at settlement, which is included within "Other expense" on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair values associated with the related liability as of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026 are immaterial.
Treasury Stock
The Company accounts for treasury stock under the cost method in accordance with ASC 505-30, "Equity: Treasury Stock". Under this method, the Company records the aggregate purchase price of treasury stock on the trade date at cost and includes treasury stock as a reduction to stockholders' equity.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Pending Adoption
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses (such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization) within the relevant expense captions presented on the face of
9
the statements of operations. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted, and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2024-03 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders under the two-class method required for participating securities. The two-class method allocates earnings between common stockholders and holders of participating securities. The Company's outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock (see Note 8) are participating securities due to their rights to participate in dividends with common stock. The Series A Preferred Stock does not have a contractual obligation to share in the Company's losses and is therefore excluded in the calculation of basic net loss per share during periods when the Company has a net loss.
The Company has one class of Common Stock. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

The Company analyzed the calculation of net income (loss) per share for periods prior to the Reverse Recapitalization and determined that it resulted in values that would not be meaningful to the users of the condensed consolidated financial statements since the Company's capital structure changed as a result of the Reverse Recapitalization. Therefore, net income (loss) per share is not presented for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the common share equivalents had been issued (computed using the treasury stock method for warrants and restricted stock units), if dilutive. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed in the same manner as basic net income (loss) per share in periods when the Company incurs a net loss, because including the effects of potentially dilutive instruments would be antidilutive.
The impact from potential common shares of common stock on the diluted net income (loss) per share calculation are included when dilutive. Potential shares of common stock issuable upon the vesting of restricted stock units and upon the potential exercise of in-the-money warrants are computed using the treasury stock method on a weighted average basis.
The Company's potentially dilutive securities, which were excluded from the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share because the exercise prices of the related warrants exceeded the average market price of the Company's common stock during the period, were as follows:

The Company assesses the inputs used to measure fair value using the three-tier hierarchy based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. For investments where little or no public market exists, management's determination of fair value is based on the best available information which may incorporate management's own assumptions and involves a significant degree of judgment, taking into consideration various factors including earnings history, financial condition, recent sales prices of the issuer's securities and liquidity risks.
HYPE digital assets are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using quoted prices in its principal market (Level 1 inputs). The Company has designated a principal market based on the market the Company has access to that has the greatest volume and level of orderly transactions for HYPE. The Company reassesses its principal market when facts and circumstances change, including but not limited to when new markets become accessible, or the volume/activity in the current principal market declines.
The Company's equity method investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting and initially recorded at fair value but is not subject to fair value measurement disclosures. As of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, the Company's equity method investment included its investment in Guidant with a carrying value of approximately $2.1 million and $2.7 million, respectively.
NOTE 5 - SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company's CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one operating segment.
When evaluating the Company's primary measure of performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM reviews these items in the manner presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, while the net income (loss) of the Company is used as the key metric for measuring performance.
NOTE 6 - RELATED PARTIES
In the normal course of business, certain expenses of the Company may be paid by, and then reimbursed to an affiliate of the Company. The Company has a short term shared services agreement and a short term sublease with one of its affiliates. As of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, the Company had a nominal outstanding balance due to the affiliate. The amount is included in "other current liabilities" on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. These expenses include but are not limited to legal, travel, and other expenses.
As of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, the Company had a receivable of approximately $0.4 million and $0.4 million, respectively, from Guidant which is included within "receivable from related party" on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, the Company had a payable of approximately $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively, to Guidant which is included within "other current liabilities" on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, under the TSA, the Company agreed to share cost savings related to the unwind of the remaining Sonnet assets with Guidant.
12
During the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, total compensation expense recognized for non-employee members of the Company's board of directors (the "Board") was $0.5 million and $0.0 million, respectively. This amount included 13,233 shares of Common Stock issued (in lieu of cash compensation) for a total fair value of $0.1 million, as well as $0.3 million of compensation expense recognized related to 326,312 RSUs outstanding during the period.
Advisor Rights and Strategic Advisor Agreement
Pursuant to the BCA, on the Closing Date, the Company and Rorschach Advisors LLC (the "Advisor"), an affiliate, entered into an Advisor Rights Agreement (the "Advisor Rights Agreement") and a Strategic Advisor Agreement (the "Advisory Agreement"), and the Company issued to the Advisor Common Stock (the "Advisor Shares") and the Advisor Warrants.
Pursuant to the Advisor Rights Agreement, among other things, for so long as the Advisor and its affiliates continue to own at least 10% of the total number of shares of the Company's Common Stock held by the Advisor as of immediately following the Closing (the "Minimum Holding Condition"), the Advisor will have the right to nominate a number of persons (the "Advisor Directors") to the Board equal to the result of (rounded up to the nearest whole number) (a) the percentage determined by dividing (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Advisor (together with its affiliates) (on an "as-converted "and "as exercised" basis and without applying any "blocker" provisions limiting the exercise or conversion of any securities held by any such person) by (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (on an "as-converted" and "as exercised" basis), multiplied by (b) the then current size of the Board (counting, for purposes of such determination, all vacancies as filled), but in any event at least one director, who shall be the Chairman of the Board. In addition, for so long as the Minimum Holding Condition is satisfied, the Company will take all necessary action to cause the Board to be comprised of at least five directors, including the Advisor Directors, and to consist of the requisite number of directors meeting the independence requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market (or other securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed). The Advisor Rights Agreement also provides the Advisor with certain information rights, and subjected the Advisor Shares and Advisor Warrants (and underlying shares of Common Stock) to lock-up restrictions applicable, subject to certain exceptions, for a period ending on the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of the Closing Date, (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company's stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property, or (z) with respect to any securities subject to the lock-up, the date on which the last sale price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds an amount per share of Common Stock equal to 150% of the price (or deemed price) for which the Advisor acquired such securities. The lock-up restrictions lapsed during the quarter ended September 30, 2026.
Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to the Company certain technical advisory services related to the digital asset ecosystem, including Hyperliquid and related digital assets, developments in digital asset industries, the selection of third-party vendors with respect to asset management and related digital asset services and other strategic advice regarding digital assets treasury operations for a term of five years (subject to earlier termination under certain circumstances). The Advisory Agreement provides that, unless otherwise agreed by Advisor and subject in all respects to applicable law, in the event that the Company raises equity or equity-linked financing during the term, the Advisor will be entitled to receive grants of equity in the form of (a) shares of Common Stock equal to 5% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to such financing and (b) warrants to purchase an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock equal to 15% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to such financing, in substantially the same form as the Advisor Warrants, or as otherwise may be agreed by the Company and the Advisor. The Advisor has waived its right to receive such additional equity grants on account of any equity or equity-linked financing consummated by the Company following the Closing, unless and until it revokes such waiver with respect to future financings. Revocation requires two weeks' advance notice provided to the Company and no such notice has been provided through the date of the issuance of the financial statements. The Advisor shall also be entitled to receive such additional compensation, if any, as may be approved by the Board.
Each Advisor Warrant is exercisable to purchase an aggregate of 9,131,600 shares of Common Stock for a period of five years following the Closing Date. The three Advisor Warrants have per share exercise prices equal to $9.375, $12.50 and $18.75, respectively (in each case subject to adjustment for stock splits, share dividends and other similar events).
NOTE 7 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation Matters
From time to time, the Company is a party to various lawsuits, claims, and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. While the outcomes of these matters are uncertain, management does not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Advisor Registration Rights Agreement
Pursuant to the BCA, on the Closing Date the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement") with the Advisor and certain investors in Rorschach, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company agreed to provide such holders with customary registration rights with respect to the shares of the Company's Common Stock owned by such holders following the Closing.
NOTE 8 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
On the Closing Date, the Company adopted an amended and restated certificate of incorporation, which became effective upon the filing thereof with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the "Restated Charter"), and amended and restated bylaws (the "Restated Bylaws"). Among other things, the Restated Charter increased the authorized capital stock of the Company to consist of 2,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock") and 100,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Preferred Stock").
13
Also on the Closing Date, the Board adopted and the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of designation (the "Certificate of Designation") designating the rights, preferences and limitations of the Series A Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred Stock"). Up to 200,000 shares were designated Series A Preferred Stock, with each share of Series A Preferred Stock having a stated value equal to $1,000 (the "Stated Value"). Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, into that number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Stated Value by $6.25 (the "Conversion Price"). The Conversion Price may be adjusted pursuant to the Certificate of Designation for stock dividends and stock splits, subsequent rights offerings, pro rata distributions of dividends or the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Certificate of Designation). A holder of Series A Preferred Stock will not have the right to convert any portion of its Series A Preferred Stock if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion.
The shares of Series A Preferred Stock are not redeemable and are classified within permanent equity. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock are not entitled to receive dividends, except that if dividends are paid on the Common Stock then the Company would be required to pay a dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock on a pro rata basis with the Common Stock determined on an as-converted basis. The Series A Preferred Stock has no voting rights, except as required by the Restated Charter, applicable law and with respect to any vote to approve a Fundamental Transaction (in which case each holder of Series A Preferred Stock would be entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which such holder's shares of Series A Preferred Stock were convertible).
Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the then holders of the Series A Preferred Stock would be entitled to participate with the holders of Common Stock then outstanding, pro rata as a single class on an as-converted basis.
Stock-Based Compensation
Effective as of the Closing Date, the stockholders of Sonnet approved the Hyperliquid Strategies Inc 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2025 Equity Incentive Plan"), and the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan became effective. The 2025 Equity Incentive Plan permits the grant of incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock bonus awards, and other stock-based awards, as well as the grant of dividend equivalents. Employees, directors and independent contractors of the Company and its subsidiaries are all eligible to participate in the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan, provided that incentive stock options may only be granted to employees. A total of 6,351,278 shares of Common Stock were reserved for awards under the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan.
During the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company issued 13,233 shares of Common Stock (in lieu of cash compensation) to its Board, for a total fair value of $0.1 million included within "selling, general and administrative and research and development expenses" on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company did not issue shares to its Board during three months ended September 30, 2025.
In determining related stock-based compensation expense for any award under the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company has made an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures of awards as they occur and therefore stock-based compensation expense presented below has not been adjusted for any estimated forfeitures.
Restricted Stock Units
The Company records stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units ("RSUs"). For the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense allocated as follows (in thousands):

Equity Facility
On October 22, 2025, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Chardan Capital Markets LLC ("Chardan") for Chardan to purchase up to $1.0 billion of shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Equity Facility"). The Company engaged LifeSci Capital, LLC as a qualified independent underwriter in connection with the Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to and upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement, beginning on the later of the Closing Date and the date the registration statement registering the resale of such shares is effective (the "Commencement Date"), the Company has the right from time to time at the Company's option to direct Chardan to purchase up to $1.0 billion of shares of Common Stock. Sales of the Company's Common Stock to Chardan under the Purchase Agreement, and the timing of any sales, will be determined by the Company from time to time in the Company's sole discretion.
In September 2026, the Company and Chardan amended the Purchase Agreement three times. Amendment No. 1, entered into on September 1, 2026, increased the aggregate commitment from $1.0 billion to $2.5 billion and, after aggregate sales reached $1.0 billion, imposed an exchange cap prohibiting sales below $12.02 per share if they would cause such issuances to exceed 42,641,847 shares, or 19.99% of the Common Stock outstanding immediately before the amendment, unless stockholder approval is obtained or Nasdaq rules do not require it. Amendment No. 2, entered into on September 14, 2026 revised the VWAP Purchase Price to 98.5% of VWAP for VWAP and Intraday VWAP Purchases and 97.0% of VWAP for Off-Hour VWAP Purchases, subject to certain adjustments. Amendment No. 3, entered into on September 14, 2026 superseded Amendment No. 2 and amended those updated pricing terms to apply following the sale of the first 160,000,000 shares under the Purchase Agreement.
As of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, the Company cumulatively issued 150,704,100 shares and 76,063,600 shares, respectively, of Common Stock under the Equity Facility. Cumulative net proceeds of $1.6 billion and $646.6 million were raised as of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, proceeds received are net of a 2.5% fee paid under the Equity Facility, which was equal to $23.4 million and $0 million, respectively.
PIPE Financing and HYPE Contributions
Concurrently with the execution of the BCA, (i) certain accredited investors entered into subscription agreements with Sonnet and the Company, pursuant to which Sonnet agreed to issue, and the subscribers agreed to purchase, immediately prior to the Closing, shares of Sonnet common stock which would immediately be converted into shares of the Company, pursuant to a private placement in accordance with Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act (the "Closing PIPE") and (ii) certain accredited investors entered into contribution agreements with Rorschach, pursuant to which such investors agreed to contribute HYPE tokens and/or cash to Rorschach immediately prior to the Closing (the "Contributions"), resulting in the investors that provided both the Closing PIPE and the Contributions receiving equity in the Company at the Closing. The gross proceeds received from the Closing PIPE and the Contributions consisted of $299.9 million of cash and 12,517,592 HYPE tokens valued at $580.5 million, based on the fair value of the shares issued for the tokens, for an aggregate fair value of $880.4 million, before deducting the allocated transaction costs. The shares of Sonnet common stock and membership interests in Rorschach issued pursuant to the Closing PIPE and the Contributions, respectively, were converted into shares of Common Stock at the Closing.
At the Closing, one investor received approximately 166,173 shares of HSI Series A Preferred Stock instead of shares of HSI Common Stock. In total, 123,354,259 shares of HSI Common Stock and 166,173 shares of HSI Series A Preferred Stock were issued in exchange for the gross proceeds of the Closing PIPE and the Contributions. The gross proceeds amount of $880.4 million was recorded to Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock based on the respective par values with the excess of the gross proceeds above par values recorded to additional paid-in capital. Additional paid-in capital was reduced for the impact of cash paid for transaction costs of $2.3 million related to the Closing PIPE financing. At Closing, such 12.5 million HYPE tokens were valued at $411.3 million, resulting in a loss on commitment of $169.2 million recognized by the Company on the HYPE tokens.
Stock Repurchase Program
On December 8, 2025, the Company announced that the Board had authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $30 million of the Company's outstanding Common Stock that will be in place for up to 12 months (the "Repurchase Program"). Through September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, a total of 5,793,191 shares and 3,067,097 shares, respectively, of Common Stock were repurchased by the Company for a total of approximately $27.8 million and $10.5 million, respectively.

Overview
We are a Delaware corporation and U.S. publicly listed digital asset treasury company. Our primary business is accumulating HYPE, the native token of the Hyperliquid Layer-1 blockchain ecosystem, on behalf of our stockholders. We believe Hyperliquid has established a significant and growing on-chain revenue base and that HYPE offers a long-term value proposition for our stockholders.
Our primary focus is building, managing, and optimizing our treasury with HYPE tokens, which are the native digital assets of the Hyperliquid Layer-1 blockchain. Our core operations include accumulating our long-term HYPE position and staking HYPE tokens, which we expect will generate ongoing staking rewards. While staking remains our central focus, secondary initiatives may include decentralized finance (DeFi) activities within the ecosystem to enhance long-term growth and income generation. Our aim is to provide capital-efficient and productive access to the HYPE token for U.S. and institutional investors, generating stockholder returns that individual holders may not be able to replicate through staking, yield optimization, and active ecosystem engagement.
Reverse Recapitalization and Sonnet Acquisition
On July 11, 2025, the Company, Sonnet BioTherapeutics Holdings, Inc. ("Sonnet"), Rorschach I LLC ("Rorschach"), Sonnet Merger Sub Inc., and Rorschach Merger Sub LLC entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as subsequently amended, the "Transaction Agreement") pursuant to which on December 2, 2025 (the "Closing Date"), (i) Rorschach Merger Sub LLC merged with and into Rorschach (the "Rorschach Merger") with Rorschach surviving the Rorschach Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and (ii) immediately following the Rorschach Merger, Sonnet Merger Sub Inc. merged with and into Sonnet (the "Sonnet Merger"), with Sonnet surviving the Sonnet Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (collectively, the "Transaction"). Prior to the consummation of the Transaction, Rorschach owned 100% of the Company. The combination of Rorschach and HSI was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization (the "Reverse Recapitalization"), with Rorschach surviving as the accounting acquirer. Under the Reverse Recapitalization, the assets and liabilities of the Company were recorded at historical cost. No goodwill or intangible assets were recognized. Consequently, the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect the operations of Rorschach for accounting purposes, and together with the financial position and results of operations of HSI and Sonnet subsequent to the Closing Date.
HYPE Token Acquisitions
During the three months ended September 30, 2026, we purchased an additional 9,078,739 HYPE tokens for approximately $785.9 million. No HYPE tokens were purchased during the three months ended September 30, 2025.
Equity Post Closing
As of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, we had the following outstanding securities (in addition to the contingent value rights issued in connection with the BCA):
17
Disposition of Certain Sonnet Assets
During the year ended June 30, 2026, we entered into an asset purchase agreement (the "APA") with Guidant Bio Therapeutics Inc. ("Guidant"). In connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the APA, on March 31, 2026, we transferred $1.325 million in cash, various developmental assets and patents related to Sonnet's tumor delivery platforms, certain employees and Sonnet's Australian subsidiary to Guidant, and subsequently, in accordance with the terms of the APA, provided an additional $1.0 million upon the execution of the definitive investment agreements. In exchange, we received a 40% common stock interest in Guidant. In connection with the APA, we engaged Guidant under a transaction services agreement (the "TSA") to provide services to us for fees of $0.175 million, paid at the closing of the APA.
Equity Facility
On October 22, 2025, we entered into an agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") to purchase up to $1.0 billion of shares of our Common Stock with Chardan Capital Markets LLC ("Chardan"). Pursuant to and upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement, we have the right from time to time at our option to direct Chardan to purchase up to $1.0 billion of shares of our Common Stock. Sales of our Common Stock to Chardan under the Purchase Agreement, and the timing of any sales, are determined by us from time to time in our sole discretion and depend on a variety of factors, including, among other things, market conditions, the trading price of our Common Stock and determinations by us regarding the use of proceeds from any sale of such Common Stock. The net proceeds from any sales under this facility (the "Equity Facility") will depend on the frequency with, and prices at which the shares of our Common Stock are sold to Chardan. To the extent we sell shares under the Purchase Agreement, we currently plan to use any proceeds therefrom for general corporate purposes, including potential purchases of HYPE tokens.
In September 2026, we amended the Purchase Agreement with Chardan three times. Amendment No. 1, entered into on September 1, 2026, increased the aggregate commitment from $1.0 billion to $2.5 billion and, after aggregate sales reached $1.0 billion, imposed an exchange cap prohibiting sales below $12.02 per share if they would cause such issuances to exceed 42,641,847 shares, or 19.99% of the Common Stock outstanding immediately before the amendment, unless stockholder approval is obtained or Nasdaq rules do not require it. Amendment No. 2, entered into on September 14, 2026 revised the VWAP Purchase Price to 98.5% of VWAP for VWAP and Intraday VWAP Purchases and 97.0% of VWAP for Off-Hour VWAP Purchases, subject to certain adjustments. Amendment No. 3, entered into on September 14, 2026 superseded Amendment No. 2 and amended those updated pricing terms to apply following the sale of the first 160,000,000 shares under the Purchase Agreement.
As of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, we cumulatively issued 150,704,100 shares and 76,063,600 shares, respectively, of Common Stock under the Equity Facility. Cumulative net proceeds of $1.6 billion and $646.6 million were raised as of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, proceeds received are net of a 2.5% fee paid under the Equity Facility, which was equal to $23.4 million and $0 million, respectively.
Advisor Rights and Strategic Advisor Agreement
Pursuant to the BCA, on the Closing Date, we entered into an Advisor Rights Agreement (the "Advisor Rights Agreement") and a Strategic Advisor Agreement (the "Advisory Agreement") with Rorschach Advisors LLC (the "Advisor"), and we issued to the Advisor three warrants (each, an "Advisor Warrant"). Pursuant to the Advisor Rights Agreement, among other things, for so long as the Advisor and its affiliates continue to own at least 10% of the total number of shares of our Common Stock held by the Advisor as of immediately following the Closing (the "Minimum Holding Condition"), the Advisor will have the right to nominate a number of persons (the "Advisor Directors") to our board of directors equal to the result of (rounded up to the nearest whole number) (a) the percentage determined by dividing (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Advisor (together with its affiliates) (on an "as-converted" and "as exercised" basis and without applying any "blocker" provisions limiting the exercise or conversion of any securities held by any such person) by (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (on an "as-converted" and "as exercised" basis), multiplied by (b) the then current size of the board of directors (counting, for purposes of such determination, all vacancies as filled), but in any event at least one director, who shall be the Chairman of the Board. In addition, for so long as the Minimum Holding Condition is satisfied, we will take all necessary action to cause the board to be comprised of at least five directors, including the Advisor Directors, and to consist of the requisite number of directors meeting the independence requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market (or other securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed). The Advisor Rights Agreement also provides the Advisor with certain information rights, and subjects the Advisor Shares and Advisor Warrants (and underlying shares of Common Stock) to lock-up restrictions applicable, subject to certain exceptions, for a period ending on the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of the Closing Date, (y) the date on which we complete a liquidation, merger, stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property, or (z) with respect to any securities subject to the lock-up, the date on which the last sale price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds an amount per share of Common Stock equal to 150% of the price (or deemed price) for which the Advisor acquired such securities. The lock-up restrictions lapsed during the quarter ended September 30, 2026.
Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide us with certain technical advisory services related to the digital asset ecosystem, including Hyperliquid and related digital assets, developments in digital asset industries, the selection of third-party vendors with respect to asset management and related digital asset services and other strategic advice regarding digital assets treasury operations for a term of five years (subject to earlier termination under certain circumstances). The Advisory Agreement provides that, unless otherwise agreed by Advisor and subject in all respects to applicable law, in the event that we raise equity or equity-linked financing during the term, the Advisor will be entitled to receive grants of equity in the form of (a) shares of Common Stock equal to 5% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to such financing and (b) warrants to purchase an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock equal to 15% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to such financing, in substantially the same form as the Advisor Warrants, or as otherwise may be agreed by us and the Advisor. The Advisor has waived its right to receive such additional equity grants on account of any equity or equity-linked financing consummated by us following the Closing, unless and until it revokes such waiver with respect to future financings. Revocation requires two weeks' advance notice provided to us and no such notice has been provided through the date of this filing. The Advisor shall also be entitled to receive such additional compensation, if any, as may be approved by the board of directors.
18
Each Advisor Warrant is exercisable to purchase an aggregate of 9,131,600 shares of Common Stock for a period of five years following the Closing Date. The three Advisor Warrants have per share exercise prices equal to $9.375, $12.50 and $18.75, respectively (in each case subject to adjustment for stock splits, share dividends and other similar events).
Stock-Based Compensation
Effective as of the Closing Date, the stockholders of Sonnet approved the Hyperliquid Strategies Inc 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2025 Equity Incentive Plan"), and the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan became effective. The 2025 Equity Incentive Plan permits the grant of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock bonus awards, and other stock-based awards, as well as the grant of dividend equivalents. Employees, directors and independent contractors of us and our subsidiaries are all eligible to participate in the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan, provided that incentive stock options may only be granted to employees. A total of 6,351,278 shares of Common Stock are reserved for awards under the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan.
During the three months ended September 30, 2026, we granted 434,601 RSUs and recognized stock-based compensation expense of $1.7 million. No stock-based compensation expense was recognized for three months ended September 30, 2025.
Stock Repurchase Program
On December 8, 2025, we announced that our board of directors had authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $30 million of the Company's outstanding Common Stock that will be in place for up to 12 months. During the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, a total of 2,726,094 shares and 0 shares, respectively, of Common Stock were repurchased by us for a total of approximately $17.3 million and $0.0 respectively. On October 23, 2026, our board of directors approved an increase to the stock repurchase program from $30 million to up to $100 million of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock, and an extension of the program through October 31, 2027.
Stockholders' Equity
On the Closing Date, we adopted an amended and restated certificate of incorporation, which became effective upon the filing thereof with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the "Restated Charter"). Among other things, the Restated Charter increased the authorized capital stock of the Company to consist of 2,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Preferred Stock").
Also on the Closing Date, the Board adopted and we filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of designation (the "Certificate of Designation") designating the rights, preferences and limitations of the Series A Preferred Stock. Up to 200,000 shares were designated Series A Preferred Stock, with each share of Series A Preferred Stock having a stated value equal to $1,000 (the "Stated Value"). Each share of Series A Preferred Stock will be convertible, at the option of the holder, into that number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Stated Value by $6.25 (the "Conversion Price"). The Conversion Price may be adjusted pursuant to the Certificate of Designation for stock dividends and stock splits, subsequent rights offerings, pro rata distributions of dividends or the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Certificate of Designation). A holder of Series A Preferred Stock will not have the right to convert any portion of its Series A Preferred Stock if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion.
The shares of Series A Preferred Stock are not redeemable by us and are not entitled to receive dividends, except that if dividends are paid on the Common Stock then we would be required to pay a dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock on a pro rata basis with the Common Stock determined on an as-converted basis. The Series A Preferred Stock has no voting rights, except as required by the Restated Charter, applicable law and with respect to any vote to approve a Fundamental Transaction (in which case each holder of Series A Preferred Stock would be entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which such holder's shares of Series A Preferred Stock were convertible).
Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the then holders of the Series A Preferred Stock would be entitled to participate with the holders of Common Stock then outstanding, pro rata as a single class on an as-converted basis.
Financial Overview
Revenue
Digital Assets
Digital assets are initially recorded at cost and then subsequently remeasured at fair value as of the balance sheet date with changes in fair value recognized as unrealized gains or losses in operating income (expense). Upon derecognition of the digital assets, we recognize realized gains or losses in operating income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statements of operations, based upon the fair value of digital assets on the date of derecognition. We recognize revenue by applying the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606").
Staking Revenue
We stake substantially all of our HYPE tokens. HYPE tokens earned from validators, in the form of staking rewards, are recognized as revenue when we satisfy our performance obligations (i.e., providing our tokens to the validator in order to validate blocks or transactions as determined by the protocol) ratably over the contract term. Staking rewards accrue every minute and are distributed to us on a daily basis. The HYPE tokens earned are non-cash consideration and therefore measured at fair value at the inception of each contract.
19
Because we do not unilaterally control the validator, we are not the principal to the validation service. As such, we present staking rewards as revenue on a net basis, reflecting only the portion of protocol rewards to which it is entitled.
Validator Commission Income
On May 13, 2026, we launched a validator node on the Hyperliquid network in partnership with Nexus Research Labs, Inc., parent of Unit Labs ("Unit"), a digital asset infrastructure and staking services provider, as "Hyperliquid Strategies x Unit" (the "Validator") . We stake the majority of our tokens to the Validator. The Validator operates within the HyperCore infrastructure and participates in the HyperBFT consensus mechanism, producing blocks and validating transactions alongside the network's active validators. The Validator is able to accept delegations from both us and third-party HYPE holders (the customers), and we earn commission income from staking rewards at the Validator level. Under our validator services agreement with Unit, commission revenue earned at the Validator level is shared with Unit, who is responsible for the day-to-day technical operation of the validator infrastructure, while we exercise direct oversight over validator performance and compliance with our staking risk management framework. The Validator earns commissions, paid in HYPE tokens, for its services. Commission income is recognized as revenue when blocks or transactions are successfully validated in accordance with the protocol. Under our Validator Service Agreement with Unit, Unit controls the operation, maintenance, monitoring, and technical management of Validator Nodes and Platform on behalf of us. As such, we have concluded that we do not control the validator service, and therefore we are not the principal to the validation service. Accordingly, we present validator commission income on a net basis in Staking and Validator Commission revenue, reflecting only the portion of protocol rewards and commission to which we are entitled after amounts payable to Unit.
Other Income (Expense)
We hold a portion of our capital in highly liquid money market funds and short term treasury bills in addition to cash deposits placed with financial institutions of high credit quality. These allocations offer liquidity while providing a yield in the form of interest income. This income is classified as "Interest income" on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Our Equity Facility qualifies as a derivative. Any changes in the fair value of any equity sold between the time the forward was entered into (trade execution under the Equity Facility) and the ultimate settlement is treated as other income (expense). This income (expense) is classified as "Other expense" on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Selling, general and administrative and research and development expenses
Selling, general and administrative and research and development expenses consist primarily of payroll and related expenses, legal and other professional services, and insurance expenses.
Results of Operations
For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared with the Three Months Ended September 30, 2025
The following is a summary of the Company's results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.
Revenue
Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2026 totaled $12.3 million, which was primarily staking revenue. Our increase in revenue reflects the fact that we stake substantially all of our HYPE tokens and for the three months ended September 30, 2025, no HYPE tokens were purchased or held by us. As noted above, we present staking rewards as revenue on a net basis.
The Company did not have revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
Digital Assets
Unrealized gain on digital tokens for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was $803.0 million, resulting from the fair value changes of HYPE digital assets during the three months ended September 30, 2026. The price per HYPE token increased from $65.04 as of June 30, 2026 to $90.99 as of September 30, 2026.
During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recognized an unrealized loss on HYPE contribution commitment of $13.4 million, which was primarily the result of a decrease in fair value of the 12.5 million HYPE tokens from a price of $46.37 per HYPE token at the date such HYPE tokens were committed to us from investors, down to $45.19 per HYPE token as of September 30, 2025.
Selling, general and administrative and research and development expenses
Our selling, general and administrative and research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 were $7.6 million and $0.0 million, respectively, which includes professional fees, salaries and wages and insurance costs. The increase was due to our commencement of substantive operations subsequent to September 30, 2025.
Other Income (Expense)
Other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2026 totaled approximately $14.8 million. Other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2026 primarily resulted from an expense under the Equity Facility related to the increase in the price of our equity between the share issuance and settlement as well as a loss of $0.5 million related to our share of losses from our equity method investment in Guidant. These expenses
20
were partially offset by $1.0 million of interest income, which is derived from money market funds, treasury assets, and interest received on cash positions held with financial institutions.
No other income (expense) was recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
Income tax expense (deferred)
We recognized an income tax expense of $172.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, primarily driven by the increase in value of our HYPE digital tokens during the period.
No income tax expense (deferred) was recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Under ASC Subtopic 205-40, "Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern", we have the responsibility to evaluate whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about our ability to meet future financial obligations as they become due within one year after the date that our financial statements are issued.
Based on our current financial condition and forecast of cash flow needs for the next twelve months, we expect that our existing resources will be sufficient to enable us to fund our anticipated level of operations through one year from the date these interim financial statements were issued.
We plan to continue to pursue additional methods to obtain funding for working capital in the future, however, such funding may not be available to us. Although we believe that such capital sources will continue to be available, there can be no assurances that additional working capital will be available to us when needed, or if available, on terms acceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain capital on terms that are satisfactory to us, when we require it, our ability to continue to grow or support the business and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited, which may adversely affect our business plans.
Cash Flows
Since inception, our operations have primarily been funded by proceeds from equity financings.
Our net income (loss) was $620.6 million and $(13.4) million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, we had accumulated earnings of approximately $925.5 million and $304.9 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of $254.6 million and HYPE digital assets with a fair value of $3.5 billion, working capital (inclusive of cash and cash equivalents) of $249.9 million and stockholders' equity of $3.4 billion. As of June 30, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of $137.9 million and HYPE digital assets with a fair value of $1.9 billion, working capital (inclusive of cash and cash equivalents) of $148.7 million and stockholders' equity of $1.9 billion.
During the three months ended September 30, 2026, our sources and uses of cash were as follows:
Net cash used in operating activities was approximately ($17.1) million, which includes net income of $620.6 million and net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $3.6 million, offset by ($641.2) million of net non-cash items consisting of $803.0 million of unrealized gains on HYPE digital asset and $12.3 million of staking and validator commission income, partially offset by $171.7 million of deferred income tax expense, $1.7 million of stock-based compensation expense, a $0.5 million loss from equity method investment in Guidant and $0.1 million of issuance of shares to the board of directors.
Net cash used in investing activities was approximately ($774.0) million, which was primarily related to the purchase of HYPE digital assets and U.S. Dollar Coin ("USDC"), partially offset by $0.1 million sales of USDC.
Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $907.7 million, which was primarily attributable to $925.0 million of net cash proceeds from the issuance of equity, partially offset by $17.3 million in payments for the repurchase of Common Stock.
During the three months ended September 30, 2025, our sources and uses of cash were as follows:
Net cash used in operating activities was approximately ($0.1) million, which includes a net loss of $(13.4) million and net changes in operating assets and liabilities of ($0.1) million, partially offset by a loss on HYPE contribution commitment of $13.4 million.
There was no net cash used in investing activities during the period.
Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $0.3 million, which was attributable to proceeds from the issuance of equity.
Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements
We had no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.
Contractual Obligations
We do not have any material long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities that affect our liquidity or capital resources.
21
In the normal course of business, we enter into contracts for services. The amount owed by us as of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026 is $6.1 million and $3.7 million, respectively and is included in "accounts payable" and "other current liabilities" on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Critical Accounting Estimates
We prepare our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements also requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by our management.
We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: (i) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (ii) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period or use of different estimates that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. There are items within our financial statements that require estimation but are not deemed critical, as defined above. There are no critical accounting estimates as of September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026.
JOBS Act
On April 5, 2012, the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act") was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We will qualify as an "emerging growth company" and under the JOBS Act will be allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.
Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an "emerging growth company", we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not be required to, among other things: (1) provide an auditor's attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; (2) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; (3) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor's report providing additional information about the audit and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis); and (4) disclose certain executive compensation-related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO's compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply until we are no longer an "emerging growth company."

Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (together, the "Certifying Officers"), or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our Management, including our Certifying Officers, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on the foregoing, our Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the quarterly period ended September 30, 2026.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ending on September 30, 2026, covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(1) On December 5, 2025, the Company's board of directors authorized a share repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program") under which the Company may repurchase up to $30 million of its Common Stock over a twelve-month period commencing December 5, 2025. On October 23, 2026, the board of directors approved an increase to the Repurchase Program from $30 million to up to $100 million of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock, and an extension of the Repurchase Program through October 31, 2027. Under the Repurchase Program, shares of Common Stock may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws. The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased under the Repurchase Program will be determined by management at its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of the Common Stock, general market and economic conditions and applicable legal requirements. There is no guarantee as to the number of shares that will be repurchased, and the Repurchase Program may be extended, suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice at the Company's discretion.
