Exhibit 99.1
TON Strategy Company Reports Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Generated $15.0 million of Gram staking revenue
Held approximately 230.5 million Gram at June 30, including approximately 229.9 million Gram deployed in staking
Executed primary actions expected to remove approximately $4.0 million of inherited annual cash operating costs
LAS VEGAS, NV — August 11, 2026 — TON Strategy Company (“TON Strategy” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: TONX), a digital asset treasury company dedicated to supporting the TON ecosystem, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, and provided an update on recent operational and strategic developments.
Second Quarter and Recent Operational Highlights
| ● | Held approximately 230.5 million units of Gram at June 30, 2026, including approximately 229.9 million units staked. Based on TonStat data as of August 4, 2026, the Company’s holdings represented approximately 4.4% of the total Gram supply, and its staked holdings represented approximately 35% of Gram staked across the network. The Company’s digital assets had a fair value of approximately $369.5 million as of June 30, 2026. |
| ● | Earned approximately 9.4 million units of Gram during the second quarter of 2026, up from approximately 2.2 million units during the first quarter and recognized approximately $15.0 million of staking revenue. The increase was primarily due to the TON network’s Catchain 2.0 consensus upgrade, which accelerated block production from approximately 2.5 seconds to 400 milliseconds, increasing validator reward issuance and resulting in higher network staking yields. The Company generated an annualized gross staking yield of approximately 17% during the quarter. |
| ● | Largely completed the actions required to discontinue the Company’s inherited legacy operations, including the termination of vendor agreements, reductions in contractor and personnel expenses, and the elimination of certain lower-margin service contracts. These actions are expected to remove approximately $4.0 million of annual cash operating costs from the Company’s existing cost base and allow management to direct its resources to the Gram treasury and selected opportunities within the TON ecosystem. |
| ● | Supported the community-approved rebrand of the TON blockchain’s native digital asset from Toncoin to Gram, with the ticker “GRAM,” which took effect June 8, 2026. The rebrand restores the asset’s original identity and better distinguishes the network from its native currency. It also comes as technical improvements expand TON’s capacity and potential utility, strengthening Gram’s role across the network. |
| ● | Supported TON network upgrades that materially improved the network’s speed, cost, and capacity. Shorter block and settlement times, greater throughput, and lower transaction fees strengthen TON’s ability to support high-volume applications across payments, Telegram-based services, and emerging AI-agent use cases. |
| ● | Terminated the Company’s Advisory Services Agreement with Kingsway Capital Partners Limited on August 10, 2026. The Company stopped making monthly payments under the agreement in March 2026. |
Financial Results for the Second Quarter 2026
The Company’s financial results for the first and second quarters of 2026 reflect the operation of its Gram treasury strategy, including staking activities. The results of the Company’s legacy operating businesses are classified separately as discontinued operations.
Total revenue was $15.0 million, compared with $3.0 million during the first quarter of 2026. The sequential increase was driven by higher staking rewards generated by the Company’s Gram treasury.
Gross profit was $14.3 million, or 95% of revenue, compared with $2.8 million, or 95% of revenue, during the first quarter of 2026.
Total costs and expenses were $13.8 million, compared with $6.5 million during the first quarter of 2026. As part of resolving a historical equity plan issue, certain legacy restricted stock units were surrendered during the quarter. Under GAAP, this required the Company to recognize immediately the remaining $5.5 million of unrecognized compensation expense associated with those awards. The $5.5 million charge was noncash, had no effect on the Company’s cash flows or total stockholders’ equity, and is not representative of its ongoing operating cost base. The second quarter also included approximately $2.9 million of noncash expense associated with the one-time set-up fee under the Kingsway advisory agreement, primarily reflecting the write-off of the remaining prepaid asset following the termination of the agreement on August 10, 2026.
Operating income from continuing operations was $0.5 million, compared with an operating loss of $3.7 million as previously reported during the first quarter of 2026. The improvement primarily reflected the increase in high-margin staking revenue, and the Company generated positive operating income despite the $5.5 million accelerated stock compensation charge and the approximately $2.9 million noncash Kingsway-related charge described above.
Net income from continuing operations before income taxes was $83.5 million, compared with a net loss before income taxes of approximately $91.3 million during the first quarter of 2026. The second quarter included an $82.8 million net gain from changes in the fair value of the Company’s Gram holdings, while the first quarter included an approximately $87.9 million net loss.
Digital assets held at June 30, 2026 had a fair value of approximately $369.5 million, compared with approximately $272.0 million at March 31, 2026. The increase reflected Gram earned through staking and the increase in Gram’s market value during the quarter. The Company held approximately 230.5 million units of Gram at June 30, 2026.
Cash and restricted cash totaled approximately $29.0 million at June 30, 2026, compared with approximately $35.0 million at March 31, 2026. The Company had no debt.
Management Commentary
Chief Executive Officer Kevin Wilson stated, “My first three months as CEO reinforced the strength of TON Strategy’s position and the opportunity to build from it. Our Gram treasury produced strong staking rewards during the quarter, and we largely completed the actions required to discontinue our inherited legacy operations. We enter the second half of the year with a more focused business and greater freedom to direct our resources to the TON ecosystem.
“We believe the value of our large Gram position extends beyond the staking yield generated by the Gram we hold today. The internet made information native to the Web, and we believe TON can make assets and economic activity increasingly native to the internet by enabling ownership, payments, and settlement within digital applications. TON is becoming faster, less expensive, and easier to use, as blockchain functionality is integrated into Telegram’s global platform of more than one billion users. These developments strengthen our conviction that TON can become important infrastructure for payments, digital ownership, and over time, AI agents capable of acting and transacting on behalf of users.
“Through our ‘Own, Advance, Compound’ capital allocation framework, we will evaluate our Gram position, liquidity, share repurchases, and potential ecosystem investments based on their ability to increase long-term value per share. We are selectively evaluating initiatives that can strengthen the TON ecosystem, improve market access to Gram, or generate attractive financial returns, prioritizing opportunities where strategic initiatives and shareholder value are mutually reinforcing.”
