As of December 31, the company had cash and cash equivalents of $2.3B, as compared to $38.1M as of December 31, 2024."We raised $25.3B of capital in 2025 to advance our Bitcoin treasury strategy, making us the largest equity issuer among U.S. public companies for a second consecutive year. We increased our holdings to 713,502 bitcoins, including 41,002 bitcoins acquired in January 2026 alone. STRC, our flagship Digital Credit instrument, has grown to $3.4B in size, supported by increasing liquidity and declining volatility. Our variable dividend rate mechanism for STRC, currently set at 11.25%, has helped maintain STRC price stability near the $100 stated amount despite a weaker bitcoin price environment. In 2026, we remain focused on expanding STRC to generate amplification and drive growth in Bitcoin Per Share for MSTR common stock investors," said Phong Le, CEOAdditionally on Monday, Strategy announced an update on its bitcoin holdings. The company reported acquiring 855 bitcoin for approximately $75.3B at an average purchase price of $87,974 between January 26 and February 1. As of February 1, Strategy holds 713,502 bitcoin acquired for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $54.26B.Following earnings, BTIG lowered the firm's price target on Strategy to $250 from $630 and kept a Buy rating on the shares. The company's Q4 earnings call was overshadowed by bitcoin prices that traded off 8% in the hours leading up to the call, the analyst said. BTIG reminds investors that Strategy's convertible debt is "extremely over-collateralized" and is covered even if bitcoin prices drew down 80%. Further, the company has 30 months of USD reserves to cover preferred equity dividend payments, added the firm. It cited the recent bitcoin volatility for the target cut.On Tuesday, Galaxy Digitalreported a Q4which compared to analyst estimates of loss per share of (92c) and revenue of $16.6B. The company reported total equity of $3.04B and holdings of $2.6B in cash and stablecoins as of December 31.Following the report, Goldman Sachs lowered the firm's price target on Galaxy to $24 from $27 and kept a Neutral rating on the shares. Despite the weaker results in the quarter, largely driven by digital assets price depreciation, management remains constructive on the long-term growth trajectory across the Global markets and Asset management businesses, the analyst said. Meanwhile, H.C. Wainwright lowered the firm's price target on Galaxy to $40 from $45 and kept a Buy rating on the shares. The firm sees an attractive buying opportunity after shares tumbled on weaker-than-expected Q4 results. While the crypto bear market has been a headwind, the potential passage of crypto market structure legislation and the monetization of its data center business, which is on track to recognize revenue from its CoreWeavelease in the coming weeks, are identifiable near-term positive catalysts, the analyst added.On Thursday, IRENreported a Q2which compared to a loss per share of (10c) last year and analyst revenue estimates of $226.9M. The company had cash and cash equivalents of $2.8B as of January 31. "Last quarter marked meaningful progress across capacity expansion, customer engagement, and capital formation, reflecting IREN's progress as a scaled AI Cloud platform," said Daniel Roberts, Co-CEO. "We are seeing the strongest demand environment to date, and importantly, that demand is being met by a proven execution capability. Over several years, we have consistently delivered data center capacity on time and at scale, and that delivery track record continues to resonate with customers who value reliability alongside performance. "With more than 4.5GW of secured power, we are able to advance a broad set of opportunities in our pipeline and support the next phase of growth. Our $3.4bn ARR target represents an early stage of monetization relative to the size of our secured power portfolio, highlighting the scale of the platform we are building."Following the report, Cantor Fitzgerald lowered the firm's price target on IREN to $82 from $136 and kept an Overweight rating on the shares. Revenue and adjusted EBITDA were both down quarter over quarter due to a decline in bitcoin prices and a decline in operating hash rate, which was not unexpected given the company's transition of capacity away from bitcoin mining and towards AI compute, the analyst said. The firm believes the after-hours move lower is a buying opportunity. B. Riley raised the firm's price target on IREN to $83 from $74 and kept a Buy rating on the shares. IREN reported Q2 adjusted EBITDA of $75.3M, below both internal and consensus estimates, while highlighting key milestones including securing $3.6B in GPU financing, adding 1.6 GW of power capacity at a new Oklahoma campus, and progressing Sweetwater 1 & 2 in Texas, the analyst said. Despite the shortfall, the company targets $3.4B in annualized run-rate revenue by end of CY26, with expansion across Horizon 1-4 and B.C. sites positioning IREN as a de-risked, compelling long-term growth story, the firm saidMORE CRYPTO EARNINGS:On Thursday, CleanSparkreported a Q1which compared to earnings per share of 85c last year and a revenue consensus of $187.73M. The company held $485.1M in cash and $1B in bitcoin as of December 31."CleanSpark exited the quarter with one of the strongest balance sheets in our sector and a power and land portfolio that is increasingly scarce," said Matt Schultz, CEO. "We strengthened our financial foundation, secured up to 890 megawatts of high-quality utility potential capacity in the Houston region, and materially advanced our Sandersville site with the acquisition of an additional 122-acre parcel as we progress toward AI tenancy. Importantly, this expansion is being funded from a position of strength. Our scaled bitcoin mining operations continue to generate durable cash flows, and those cash flows are now being redeployed into long-duration infrastructure opportunities that we believe can drive significant shareholder value over time."Following the report, Needham lowered the firm's price target on CleanSpark to $19 from $25 and kept a Buy rating on the shares. The company modestly missed on revenues and Adjusted EBITDA, primarily driven by lower mining, though the firm is lowering its estimates further as bitcoin prices have materially pulled back, the analyst said. Cantor Fitzgerald lowered the firm's price target on CleanSpark to $17 from $21 and kept an Overweight rating on the shares. The investment case for CleanSpark has now shifted to AI, with what appears to be strong momentum for its Sandersville site, and the company is adding additional large site capacity behind that, the analyst said. The recent selloff makes shares attractive, the firm added. Meanwhile, Keefe Bruyette lowered the firm's price target on CleanSpark to $14 from $18 and kept an Outperform rating on the shares. The firm maintains high conviction in a 2026 Sandersville lease given the site's readiness, location, and active tenant engagement, which should help anchor shares near $10 despite BTC volatility, the analyst said.On Thursday, Bullishreported a Q4which compared to analyst estimates of earnings per share of 16c on revenue of $87.26M. Tom Farley, CEO, said, "I believe that we are at a turning point for digital assets. For all of crypto's extreme volatility and cyclicality, the vision of faster, better, cheaper, permissionless capital is being unlocked in real-time to bring everything onchain. What I envision immediately ahead for this industry - and, particularly for Bullish, is why I came to the digital asset space."Following earnings, Clear Street lowered the firm's price target on Bullish to $42 from $50 and kept a Buy rating on the shares. The company reported strong Q4 results and the fiscal 2026 outlook is solid, the analyst said. Clear cited the "risk-off" environment, weak investor sentiment, and uncertainty surrounding the timing of market structure legislation for the target cut.Meanwhile, JPMorgan lowered the firm's price target on Bullish to $41 from $42 and kept a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm views the company's Q4 report as inline.On Friday, Mawson Infrastructure Groupreportedcompared to revenue of $15.1M for the same period last year. The company also announced that it had reached a confidential settlement with Ionic Digital Mining to resolve claims Ionic brought against Mawson and two of its subsidiaries related to a co-location agreement. In addition, the company entered a separate, unrelated settlement to resolve a customer dispute over a hosting arrangement. Together, these resolutions eliminate a large portion of the company's potential financial liability going forward. Mawson made no admission of liability or wrongdoing in reaching either of these settlements."We are pleased to move forward from these pending cases and significantly reduce Mawson's potential liability," said Kaliste Saloom, Interim CEO and General Counsel of Mawson. "The clarity we now have on the future strength of our balance sheet will allow us to focus on driving operational execution and long-term growth for Mawson."BED BATH & BEYOND TO ACQUIRE TOKENS.COM:Bed Bath & Beyondannounced Monday that it has signedto establish a critical foundation for a unified investment and personal finance platform. The company said, "The platform will address a fragmented market for financial services by delivering a one-stop journey for real estate and other real-world asset finance that bridges tokenized and traditional investing.

"The company's business will continue operating in the United States and Singapore. The Plan is expected to include a reduction in force of up to 200 global employees, including employees in Europe, the United States, and Singapore, and representing approximately 25% of the company's total global workforce as of February 4, 2026. The company expects the Plan to be substantially completed in the first half of 2026, subject to applicable local law and consultation requirements. In connection with the Plan, the company currently estimates that it will incur pre-tax restructuring and related charges of approximately $11M, substantially all of which are expected to result in cash expenditures…The company expects to recognize substantially all of these charges in the first quarter of 2026, subject to the timing of actions taken under the Plan and applicable local law and consultation requirements," the filing stated.Following the filing, Evercore ISI downgraded Gemini to In Line from Outperform with a price target of $10, down from $15. The firm said the market exits pushes out Gemini's growth story.Additionally, Goldman Sachs lowered the firm's price target on Gemini to $7.50 from $11.50 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The wind down reflects the impact of the crypto sell-off on reducing crypto trading volumes, which has likely termed out Gemini's path to profitability, Goldman contended.BITFARMS PLANS U.S. REDOMICILIATION:Bitfarmsannounced Friday that its Board of Directors has approved a plan of arrangement under whichsubject to receipt of shareholder, stock exchange and court approvals.

The Endeavor Investor Group issued a statement in response to Mawson Infrastructure Group'sannouncement that its Board of Directors has adopted a stockholder rights plan. Endeavor also expressed its concerns with the Company's recent dilutive actions that protect the Board and the Company's management at the expense of shareholders. Endeavor said, "Mawson's decision to implement the Rights Plan is yet another example of Management acting to entrench itself rather than address the Company's persistent operational underperformance and destruction of shareholder value. This Rights Plan hurts shareholders by impeding constructive voices and shielding the current leadership team from accountability. Rather than take the necessary steps to fix Mawson, Management has instead engaged in financial engineering to dilute shareholders and preserve their own jobs. In fact, according to the figures cited in the Company's filing reporting the adoption of the rights plan,1there appear to be close to 5.3 million shares outstanding, a nearly quintupling of Company's outstanding shares since its 10-Q filed in November. Shareholders are getting diluted at an exponential rate in a plan orchestrated and administered by Management. We are calling on the Company to address shareholders' concerns and transparently discuss its capital plans - rather than fight its shareholders for seeking answers. Predictably, the Company's stock price continues its decline on a nearly daily basis and is now worth a fraction of its value from just one year ago. Management's actions and the Board's failed oversight are unacceptable and no shareholder should stand for it. Endeavor has a better way, which we outlined in our shareholder letter issued in January...Endeavor firmly believes that Mawson's shareholders deserve: A Board that welcomes shareholder input rather than suppressing it; A credible strategy for business growth and stock price appreciation; Responsible capital allocation that stops unnecessary dilution; Transparency, accountability, and alignment with shareholder interests. We remain committed to engaging with fellow shareholders about the urgent need for change at Mawson and the importance of introducing new perspectives, stronger governance, and a disciplined approach to value creation. We encourage all Mawson shareholders to contact us for an open and honest dialogue."
