DeFi Development Corp. Provides Preliminary Q4 2025 Business Update

BOCA RATON, FL — January 5, 2026 — DeFi Development Corp. (Nasdaq: DFDV) (the “Company”), the first US public company with a treasury strategy built to accumulate and compound Solana (“SOL”), today provided a preliminary business update highlighting key treasury and capital allocation activity during the fourth quarter of 2025.

During the quarter, the Company generated a 6.2% increase in Solana per share (“SPS”), bringing SPS to 0.0743 as of today, and implying an approximately 24.6% annualized run-rate. The Company currently holds 2,221,329 SOL and SOL equivalents on the balance sheet along with approximately $9M in cash, stablecoins, and other tokens-readily-convertible-to-cash as of January 1, 2026.

The Company repurchased 2,049,113 shares at an average price of $5.62 per share in Q4.

In addition, based on preliminary internal estimates and subject to final quarter-end adjustments, the Company estimates its average organic yield for the fourth quarter of 2025 to be approximately 8.3% on an annualized basis. Organic yield is generated through a combination of staking, validator operations, and selective onchain deployment, and remains a core component of the Company’s treasury strategy. More than 15% of the Company’s SOL treasury remains deployed onchain.

“These results reflect our ongoing commitment to disciplined execution and shareholder alignment,” said Joseph Onorati, Chief Executive Officer of DeFi Development Corp. “We continue to prioritize decisions that enhance SOL per share while maintaining the strength and integrity of our treasury.”

The Company noted that the figures disclosed in this update are preliminary, unaudited, and subject to change based on the completion of quarter-end close procedures and review processes.
