The Company regularly monitors its cash and digital asset reserves on a consolidated basis and allocates a portion of its digital asset treasury reserve to support ETP market risk hedging and broader strategic capital allocation.Comment from Johan Wattenström, Chief Executive Officer of DeFi Technologies"Q1 2026 reflected continued execution across DeFi Technologies' platform and reinforces the strength and durability of the business we have built. In the most challenging quarter of this recent crypto market downturn, with asset prices reaching their bear market lows, we generated revenue of $11.2 million and positive net income of $4.9 million, while further strengthening our balance sheet by significantly improving our working capital position.Across the business, we have demonstrated that DeFi Technologies is not reliant on any single product, revenue stream, or market environment. Our platform continues to benefit from multiple pathways for growth across asset management, trading, and capital markets infrastructure, and we believe the Company has never been better positioned to capitalize on the convergence of decentralized finance and traditional capital markets.Our fortress balance sheet gives us the ability to be proactive rather than reactionary and to deploy capital deliberately into growth initiatives, strategic infrastructure, and potential acquisitions that deepen our capabilities and strengthen long-term earnings power.We continue to see opportunities to increase monetization across the platform, particularly through the trading, hedging, and market-making infrastructure embedded across Valour's issuance stack, which supports our ability to earn additional income on AUM more efficiently. As we move through 2026, we remain focused on scaling Valour's platform, expanding institutional product structures such as UCITS, AMCs, and other regulated vehicles, supporting Stillman Digital's institutional execution and infrastructure growth, and investing in the products and rails that support the future of digital asset investing.We are increasingly optimistic that the lows in this cycle are behind us, which we believe sets up a more favorable backdrop for AUM growth, increased ETP demand, and revenue acceleration through the remainder of 2026. That optimism is already beginning to show in the business, with AUM recently sitting above $550 million and April 2026 net inflows of $14.6 million, the second-highest monthly inflow in the last 12 months after September 2025 inflows of $22.6 million, following a Q1 period in which flows were effectively flat. With a proven business model, expanding monetization, and the financial flexibility to operate from a position of strength, we believe DeFi Technologies is exceptionally well-positioned for the quarters ahead."DeFi Technologies Shareholder Call to Discuss Q1 2026 Financial ResultsTo register for the webcast, see below:When: Friday, May 15, 2026

(the "Company" or "DeFi Technologies") (NASDAQ: DEFT) (CBOE CA: DEFI) (GR: R9B) (B3: DEFT31), a financial technology company bridging traditional capital markets with decentralised finance, today announced a partnership with OMFIF's Digital Monetary Institute (DMI) and confirmed its participation at the OMFIF Digital Money Summit 2026, taking place in London on 19–20 May 2026. The partnership formalises an ongoing collaboration between DeFi Technologies and OMFIF, anchored by the inclusion of the DEFT Valour Investment Opportunity Index (DVIO) as a recurring data reference within OMFIF's institutional network. The partnership also includes sponsorship of the Digital Money Summit 2026 and a consistent marketing presence across OMFIF DMI channels, creating a long-term institutional platform for the Valour ETP product range.Through this relationship, DeFi Technologies establishes the DVIO Index as a recurring data signal within a global network of central banks, regulators, asset managers, and financial institutions, positioning Valour's product platform directly within the institutional conversations shaping the future of digital asset markets.Distributing the DVIO Index to a global institutional audienceThe DVIO Index is a rules-based, weekly rebalanced index engineered by DeFi Technologies to track the top 50 digital assets by assets under management (AUM) within Valour's regulated exchange-traded product (ETP) platform. Unlike price-based indices, DVIO is built entirely on real capital allocation data, measuring how regulated institutional capital moves across digital asset classes week over week.Through this partnership, OMFIF will distribute DVIO insights and reports across its institutional network, integrate the index into the DMI newsletter, and feature DeFi Technologies in dedicated content formats, including a recorded conversation between Andrew Forson, President of DeFi Technologies, and Lewis McLellan, Editor of OMFIF's Digital Monetary Institute.This distribution extends the reach of the DVIO Index into the central banking, policy, and institutional investment community that OMFIF convenes globally, providing targeted visibility for Valour's ETP platform among leading financial institutions and asset allocators.A unified institutional platform across the Valour ETP rangeAs part of the partnership, DeFi Technologies has renewed its membership in OMFIF's Digital Monetary Institute through 2027. DMI membership provides year-round engagement with OMFIF's network of central banks, regulators, and financial institutions, including access to closed-door meetings, research publications, and ongoing policy and market dialogues.The partnership also extends to OMFIF's Nordic Forum in August 2026, offering direct engagement in one of Europe's most strategically important regions for Valour's ETP business.Valour, a wholly owned subsidiary of DeFi Technologies, operates one of the world's most extensive regulated digital asset ETP platforms, with over 100 products listed across European exchanges and B3 in Brazil. All Valour ETPs operate within a unified product framework, including a consistent fee structure, shared liquidity model, and common regulatory and operational infrastructure.For institutional allocators, this standardisation enables direct comparison across digital asset exposures without adjusting for structural or venue-based differences. It also strengthens the integrity of the DVIO Index, as its signals are derived from consistent, regulated investment products rather than fragmented market data.The Valour platform includes UK-listed products distributed through Lloyds Banking Group, Halifax, and Bank of Scotland, including 1Valour Bitcoin Physical Staking (1VBS) and 1Valour Ethereum Physical Staking (1VET). It also includes a Brazilian product range listed on B3, including DEFT31, BTCV39, ETHV39, XRPV39, VSOL39, and VSUI39. Across all jurisdictions, investors access the same product architecture: regulated, transparent, and operationally aligned.Participation in the OMFIF Digital Money Summit 2026Andrew Forson, President of DeFi Technologies and Chief Growth Officer of Valour, will participate in Session VII of the Digital Money Summit 2026: "Who bears the risk? Custody, staking, and consumer protection in digital assets."The session will examine how regulators are approaching custody provision and other services for cryptoassets that fall outside the securities perimeter, the effectiveness of frameworks such as MiCA and emerging US legislation, the systemic considerations posed by vertically integrated crypto firms, and how policymakers can achieve consistent regulatory standards while minimising fragmentation and regulatory arbitrage.Forson will be joined by Carla Carriveau, Head of the Office of International Affairs and Senior Advisor to the Acting Superintendent at the New York Department of Financial Services, and Laura Weil, Policy Officer for Digital Finance at the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA)."OMFIF and its Digital Monetary Institute convene exactly the audience our products are built to serve: central banks, regulators, investors, asset managers, banks, and technology providers shaping the future of capital markets," said Andrew Forson, President of DeFi Technologies. "Bringing the DVIO Index into that conversation, and contributing to the regulatory dialogue at the Digital Money Summit, reflects what we believe institutional digital asset infrastructure should look like: regulated, consistent, and transparent."About OMFIF and the Digital Monetary InstituteOMFIF, the Official Monetary and Financial Institutions Forum, is an independent forum for central banking, economic policy, and public investment. Its Digital Monetary Institute (DMI) convenes public and private sector stakeholders focused on digital currencies and the future of capital markets.The Digital Money Summit and the broader DMI community bring together senior decision-makers from institutions including:Central banks: including the Bank of England, Banco Central do Brasil, Bank of Canada, Banque de France, Banco de España, Bank of Israel, Central Bank of Ireland, Hong Kong Monetary Authority, and Bank Negara Malaysia, among many othersRegulators and policymakers: including ESMA, the New York Department of Financial Services, BaFin, and the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Central Bank & Digital CurrencyGlobal financial institutions: including BNY Mellon, Citi, Goldman Sachs, HSBC, Commerzbank, and the Depository Trust and Clearing CorporationMarket infrastructure and technology providers: including CME Group, Circle, Crown Agents Bank, and IDEMIAThis composition makes OMFIF a uniquely high-signal distribution channel for the DVIO Index and a credible forum for institutional dialogue on the regulated digital asset market.Continuing the London conversation: DeFi Technologies Capital Markets SeriesThe Digital Money Summit comes at a timely moment, as DeFi Technologies returns to London just weeks later for the next edition of the DeFi Technologies Capital Markets Series on 4 June 2026. The invite-only gathering will convene a select group of asset managers, institutional investors, and allocators at Canada House, in collaboration with the Canada-UK Chamber of Commerce.Agenda highlights include:Institutional access to digital assets through regulated investment products by DeFi Technologies and ValourMarket perspectives on Bitcoin and Ethereum as maturing institutional asset classesAnalysis of the DVIO Index, providing a data-driven view of capital flows across digital assetsAsset managers, institutional investors, and allocators interested in attending can request further details at events@defi.tech.About DeFi Technologies

The investments were made by institutional investors with a bullish view on Hedera (HBAR) and reflect growing demand for regulated, exchange-traded access to digital assets through traditional market infrastructure. The transactions represent a pivotal step in expanding Valour's assets under management in Germany, one of Europe's most important markets for exchange-traded investment products.The investments originated through strategic engagement at DeFi Technologies' Abu Dhabi Insights Symposium, where the Company featured its DEFT Valour Investment Opportunity Index ("DVIO Index") as a framework for identifying digital assets gaining traction with sophisticated allocators. The resulting institutional participation in Valour's Hedera ETP underscores how DeFi Technologies is leveraging its product platform, market intelligence, and investor network to help drive adoption across the digital asset sector.Launched January 2026, this institutional-grade benchmark tracks the top 50 crypto assets by AUM within Valour's ETP ecosystem. Weights are adjusted weekly based on actual regulated investor capital allocation and net flow momentum — providing a real-time barometer of where institutional and retail money is positioned across digital assets."The strength of our ETP platform is not only in providing regulated access to digital assets, but in helping surface where institutional demand is forming," said Andrew Forson, President of DeFi Technologies and Chief Growth Officer of Valour. "These investments into Valour's Hedera ETPs demonstrate how the combination of our product suite of a world leading 102 digital asset underlying ETPs, and the DVIO Index can translate conviction into capital formation. We believe this is a strong signal for Hedera (HBAR) and a meaningful step forward in the continued growth of our AUM in Germany. This significant institutional injection of capital qualifies Hedera (HBAR) for extended research coverage in the periodic DVIO Index InFocus reports as well as intensive analysis during our live, in-person, DeFi Technologies Insights Global Symposia Capital Markets Roadshow sessions. The Capital Markets Roadshow is an informational session that takes place during symposia which analyzes and highlights the investment and technological value of digital assets that underpin select Valour ETPs."The DVIO Index is designed to identify opportunity and relative momentum across Valour's regulated ETP platform by tracking signals derived from market activity, product engagement, and capital allocation trends. DeFi Technologies believes the investments provide a strong example of how these signals can align with institutional demand and support broader digital asset adoption through regulated investment vehicles.Growth in AUM is particularly significant for Valour because it directly supports the revenue-generating capacity of its asset management business. Valour monetizes its AUM through management fees earned on its ETPs. As AUM grows, Valour benefits not only from a larger fee base but also from greater opportunities to enhance monetization and operating leverage across its platform.For the Hedera ecosystem, the transactions represent a meaningful signal of increasing institutional recognition. As more professional investors seek targeted exposure to digital assets through transparent and familiar structures, regulated ETPs can play an important role in broadening access, increasing visibility, and deepening market credibility for emerging ecosystems such as Hedera.For Valour, the transactions further reinforce Börse Frankfurt as a strategic venue for growth in Germany and support the Company's broader objective of expanding its footprint with both institutional and retail investors across key European markets. As DeFi Technologies continues to deepen its asset management capabilities, investments of this nature can serve as an important catalyst for AUM growth, liquidity, and long-term product adoption.Valour's Hedera ETPs provide investors with exchange-traded exposure to HBAR, the native token of the Hedera network, through a regulated product available via traditional brokerage and banking platforms. By pairing regulated product issuance with differentiated market intelligence tools such as the DVIO Index, DeFi Technologies continues to strengthen its position at the intersection of traditional finance and digital assets.About DeFi Technologies

The milestone builds on Stablecorp's recent momentum following QCAD's emergence as Canada's first compliant CAD stablecoin.Strategic relevance for DeFi Technologies
As an investor in Stablecorp and strategic collaborator focused on scaling QCAD across product development, liquidity, and distribution, DeFi Technologies views this as a meaningful step in the evolution of compliant digital asset rails in Canada.DeFi Technologies first announced its strategic investment in and partnership with Stablecorp in September 2025 as part of its broader effort to support regulated digital asset infrastructure and expand access to compliant stablecoin rails. Since then, Stablecorp has continued to advance QCAD's market position, including achieving a key regulatory milestone that established QCAD as Canada's first compliant CAD stablecoin.The launch of QCAD trading on Kraken represents another important step in the stablecoin's growth and distribution.

Valour continued to scale its global ETP platform with more than 100 listed products and strong inflows throughout the year. Stillman Digital delivered its first full year of contribution and further strengthened the institutional layer of our platform. Across the business, we have demonstrated that DeFi Technologies is not reliant on any single product, revenue stream, or market environment. We have built a durable business with multiple pathways for growth and believe we have never been better positioned to scale the platform and capitalize on the opportunities ahead.We believe DeFi Technologies is one of the few profitable companies in the digital asset sector, across both public and private markets, with demonstrated earnings power and a platform built to generate revenue across cycles. That distinction matters. It reflects a business designed not only to grow, but to monetize effectively and compound value over time.We ended the year with a much stronger financial position, including more than $113 million in cash, alongside digital asset treasury holdings and a valuable venture portfolio. That fortress balance sheet allows us to be proactive rather than reactionary. It enables us to deploy capital deliberately into growth initiatives, new products, strategic infrastructure, and potential acquisitions that deepen our capabilities, expand our vertical integration, and strengthen our long-term earnings profile.The capital we raised has also enhanced our ability to increase monetization across the platform, particularly by strengthening the trading, hedging, and market-making infrastructure that supports Valour's issuance stack and allows us to earn additional income on AUM more efficiently. As we look ahead to 2026, we intend to build on that momentum by scaling Valour's structured product offerings, advancing institutional fund structures such as UCITS, AMCs, and other regulated investment vehicles, supporting Stillman's institutional execution and infrastructure growth, and broadening our reach across new markets and distribution channels.More broadly, we are building for the convergence of decentralized finance and traditional capital markets. We see a significant long-term opportunity to create the products, infrastructure, and institutional rails that enable capital to move between these two worlds in a regulated, efficient, and scalable way.We are entering 2026 from a position of strength, with a proven business model, growing monetization, and the financial flexibility to invest in the next phase of growth. We believe we are still in the early stages of building the institutional gateway to the future of finance."About DeFi Technologies

Valour continued to scale its global ETP platform with more than 100 listed products and strong inflows throughout the year. Stillman Digital delivered its first full year of contribution and further strengthened the institutional layer of our platform. Across the business, we have demonstrated that DeFi Technologies is not reliant on any single product, revenue stream, or market environment. We have built a durable business with multiple pathways for growth and believe we have never been better positioned to scale the platform and capitalize on the opportunities ahead.We believe DeFi Technologies is one of the few profitable companies in the digital asset sector, across both public and private markets, with demonstrated earnings power and a platform built to generate revenue across cycles. That distinction matters. It reflects a business designed not only to grow, but to monetize effectively and compound value over time.We ended the year with a much stronger financial position, including more than $113 million in cash, alongside digital asset treasury holdings and a valuable venture portfolio. That fortress balance sheet allows us to be proactive rather than reactionary. It enables us to deploy capital deliberately into growth initiatives, new products, strategic infrastructure, and potential acquisitions that deepen our capabilities, expand our vertical integration, and strengthen our long-term earnings profile.The capital we raised has also enhanced our ability to increase monetization across the platform, particularly by strengthening the trading, hedging, and market-making infrastructure that supports Valour's issuance stack and allows us to earn additional income on AUM more efficiently. As we look ahead to 2026, we intend to build on that momentum by scaling Valour's structured product offerings, advancing institutional fund structures such as UCITS, AMCs, and other regulated investment vehicles, supporting Stillman's institutional execution and infrastructure growth, and broadening our reach across new markets and distribution channels.More broadly, we are building for the convergence of decentralized finance and traditional capital markets. We see a significant long-term opportunity to create the products, infrastructure, and institutional rails that enable capital to move between these two worlds in a regulated, efficient, and scalable way.We are entering 2026 from a position of strength, with a proven business model, growing monetization, and the financial flexibility to invest in the next phase of growth. We believe we are still in the early stages of building the institutional gateway to the future of finance."Earnings Conference CallDeFi Technologies will host a webcast to discuss its 2025 financial results on Tuesday, April 7, 2025, at 11 am EST.

DeFi Technologies appoints Jacob Lindberg as Valour CRO to drive European expansion
April 1, 2026
DeFi Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:DEFT) said its subsidiary Valour Inc. has appointed Jacob Lindberg as Chief Revenue Officer, as the digital asset manager pushes to expand its presence across the Nordic region and broader European markets.
Lindberg will lead Valour’s commercial strategy and revenue growth, focusing on expanding distribution of the company’s digital asset exchange-traded products (ETPs) while building new institutional partnerships and supporting the next phase of growth in professional investment products.
The appointment comes as DeFi Technologies moves to broaden Valour’s platform beyond listed ETPs, developing a wider range of institutional investment vehicles aimed at professional allocators. The company is currently working on UCITS-style funds, actively managed certificates, hedge funds, and fund-of-funds strategies, alongside other capital markets products designed to diversify assets under management and expand distribution across Europe.
Lindberg previously founded Vinter, a regulated crypto index provider, where he served as chief executive officer. Under his leadership, Vinter developed indexes used in investment products listed on major exchanges including Nasdaq, the London Stock Exchange, Deutsche Börse Xetra, Spotlight, and SIX Swiss Exchange. The company was acquired by financial data firm Kaiko in 2024.
During his time at Vinter, Lindberg raised $3.4 million in seed funding, led by Octopus Ventures, at a valuation exceeding $20 million, and grew the firm into a widely used index provider for crypto asset managers. He was also named to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list in 2022.
Lindberg played a role in developing several early digital asset index products, including the first Bitcoin & Gold index ETP, a crypto momentum-factor index ETP, and VDAB10, described as the first capped market-cap crypto index.
“Jacob brings a rare combination of entrepreneurial experience, digital asset expertise, and deep familiarity with the European investment product landscape,” said Johan Wattenström, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of DeFi Technologies. “As we expand Valour’s presence across the Nordics and broader Europe, we are also laying the groundwork for the next generation of institutional product offerings, including fund structures and managed solutions tailored to the needs of professional allocators. Jacob’s background sits directly at the intersection of product innovation, indexing, and market development, making him a strong fit for this next phase of growth.”
“Valour has built the broadest product offering for investors seeking access to the asymmetric return profile of crypto assets like Bitcoin, Ether, and Solana,” said Jacob Lindberg. “The opportunity ahead is not only to expand access to crypto asset ETPs across key European markets, but also to help develop institutional-grade structures that meet the needs of a broader set of investors. I enjoyed working with Valour’s accomplished team for years at Vinter, so I’m excited to join the firm at this stage to support Valour’s commercial expansion.”
Valour continues to expand investor access to digital assets through its growing lineup of exchange-traded products listed across European exchanges. DeFi Technologies said the appointment reflects its broader effort to strengthen senior leadership as it scales product innovation, regional expansion, and institutional investment offerings.

All dollar amounts in this press release are in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated.
As previously announced by the Company, there will be a delay in the filing of the Company's audited annual financial statements, management's discussion and analysis, and related CEO and CFO certifications for the year ended December 31, 2025 (collectively, the "Annual Filings"). The delay does not relate to any disagreement with its auditors, any issues with the Company's financial statements, or any identified weakness in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting, but from the delay in receiving the SOC 2 Type 2 report from a third-party vendor.In connection with the potential delay in the completion of the Annual Filings, the Company has made an application to the Ontario Securities Commission (the "OSC"), as principal regulator, to approve a temporary management cease trade order ("MCTO") under National Policy 12-203 – Management Cease Trade Orders ("NP 12-203"). There can be no assurance that the OSC will grant the MCTO, and barring which the OSC may issue a failure to file cease trade order against the Company which orders that the trading of securities of the Company will cease.In addition, the Company intends to file its 2025 Annual Report on Form 40-F, including the Annual Filings, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on EDGAR at the same time the Annual Filings are filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities on SEDAR+.

Valour continued to scale its global ETP platform with more than 100 listed products and strong inflows throughout the year. Stillman Digital delivered its first full year of contribution and further strengthened the institutional layer of our platform. Across the business, we have demonstrated that DeFi Technologies is not reliant on any single product, revenue stream, or market environment. We have built a durable business with multiple pathways for growth and believe we have never been better positioned to scale the platform and capitalize on the opportunities ahead.We believe DeFi Technologies is one of the few profitable companies in the digital asset sector, across both public and private markets, with demonstrated earnings power and a platform built to generate revenue across cycles. That distinction matters. It reflects a business designed not only to grow, but to monetize effectively and compound value over time.We ended the year with a much stronger financial position, including more than $113 million in cash on a preliminary unaudited basis, alongside digital asset treasury holdings and a valuable venture portfolio. That fortress balance sheet allows us to be proactive rather than reactionary. It enables us to deploy capital deliberately into growth initiatives, new products, strategic infrastructure, and potential acquisitions that deepen our capabilities, expand our vertical integration, and strengthen our long-term earnings profile.The capital we raised has also enhanced our ability to increase monetization across the platform, particularly by strengthening the trading, hedging, and market-making infrastructure that supports Valour's issuance stack and allows us to earn additional income on AUM more efficiently. As we look ahead to 2026, we intend to build on that momentum by scaling Valour's structured product offerings, advancing institutional fund structures such as UCITS, AMCs, and other regulated investment vehicles, supporting Stillman's institutional execution and infrastructure growth, and broadening our reach across new markets and distribution channels.More broadly, we are building for the convergence of decentralized finance and traditional capital markets. We see a significant long-term opportunity to create the products, infrastructure, and institutional rails that enable capital to move between these two worlds in a regulated, efficient, and scalable way.We are entering 2026 from a position of strength, with a proven business model, growing monetization, and the financial flexibility to invest in the next phase of growth. We believe we are still in the early stages of building the institutional gateway to the future of finance."Appointment of the new independent Chair of the Audit CommitteeMr. Jonathan Dimitry was appointed new independent Chair of the Audit Committee. The appointment of Jonathan as Audit Committee Chair forms part of DeFi Technologies' broader governance and leadership initiatives implemented over the past year to support the Company's growth strategy and regulatory compliance objectives.

As Chair of the Audit Committee, he will oversee the integrity of the Company's financial statements, the effectiveness of internal controls, and the relationship with DeFi Technologies' external auditors, including oversight of key audit-related processes and timelines.Johan Wattenström, CEO of DeFi Technologies, commented: "I am pleased to have Jonathan Dimitry as Chair of the Audit Committee for DeFi Technologies Inc. His deep experience in capital markets, risk management, and governance will be instrumental as DeFi Technologies continues to mature its financial reporting processes and strengthen its overall control environment. We are confident that Jonathan's leadership will add meaningful value to our shareholders and other stakeholders as we execute on our long-term strategy."Mr. Dimitry is a seasoned financial professional and technology company founder, investor and advisor with over two decades of experience spanning investment banking, principal investing, derivatives trading, large-scale funds management and technology company building.Drawing on his early career at Goldman Sachs in Investment Banking and in its Principal Investments division, he has led the sourcing, analysis, detailed due diligence and execution of complex equity and credit investments for Goldman Sachs' proprietary risk capital across multiple asset classes.
