Forward Industries Reports Fiscal Third Quarter 2026 Financial and Operating Results
Management to Host Conference Call Today at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time
AUSTIN, TX, August 12, 2026 – Forward Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: FWDI) (the “Company” or “Forward”), the leading Solana treasury company, today announced its financial and operating results for its fiscal third quarter ended June 30, 2026, along with an update on its SOL treasury strategy.
“Fiscal Q3 was another strong period of execution for Forward as we expanded our Solana treasury while delivering meaningful growth in SOL per share,” said Kyle Samani, Chairman of Forward Industries. “During the quarter, we acquired, through purchases and staking, more than 500,000 SOL and increased SOL per share on a fully diluted basis by 9% quarter over quarter. We also repurchased more than 2.5 million shares of Forward common stock, reflecting our disciplined approach to capital allocation and focus on driving per-share value. Our inclusion in the Russell 2000 and Russell 3000 indexes represents another important milestone and reflects the institutional recognition Forward has achieved in a relatively short period of time. Solana’s underlying fundamentals also continued to strengthen, with accelerating transaction activity, application revenue and adoption of tokenized real-world assets. Despite continued volatility across digital asset markets, we believe Forward’s permanent capital base, industry-leading access to capital and position as the world’s largest Solana treasury company provide us with a significant opportunity to grow SOL per share, pursue accretive acquisitions and deepen our participation across the Solana ecosystem.”
Operational Highlights
·Increased SOL Holdings: Forward increased its SOL and SOL equivalent holdings by 508,618 SOL during its fiscal third quarter 2026. Subsequent to quarter end, from July 1 through August 3, 2026, the Company increased its holdings by an additional approximate 254,000 SOL at an average cost of approximately $75 per SOL, bringing total SOL and SOL equivalent holdings to approximately 7.8 million SOL1 and SOL equivalents as of August 3, 2026.
·Added to the Russell 2000 and Russell 3000 Indexes: Effective June 29, 2026, Forward was added to the Russell 2000 and Russell 3000 indexes as part of the annual index reconstitution. The Company believes its inclusion will broaden its institutional shareholder base, enhance trading liquidity and increase its visibility among investors that benchmark against or passively track the Russell indexes.
·OnRe Investment Update: In May 2026, Forward invested in OnRe, a Solana-based tokenized reinsurance platform, and committed to provide up to $25 million of liquidity to its ONyc token. Since the investment, ONyc’s market capitalization increased 73% from approximately $142.7 million to approximately $247.4 million as of the end of June 2026, while the total tokenized real-world asset market capitalization on Solana increased from approximately $2.5 billion to more than $3.3 billion. The investment supports Forward’s broader strategy to generate diversified, U.S. dollar-denominated yield while supporting the growth of Solana-native financial infrastructure.
·Executed Accretive Share Repurchases: During the quarter, Forward repurchased 2,561,376 shares of common stock when management determined that doing so was accretive to SOL per share. Common shares outstanding declined to 73,846,883 as of June 30, 2026, from 76,314,617 as of March 31, 2026.
·Utilized At-the-Market Program Selectively: This quarter, the Company issued 93,642 shares through its at-the-market offering program for gross proceeds of $435,443. The shares were issued at prices management determined were accretive to SOL per share, and the proceeds were deployed into additional SOL purchases.
1 Includes SOL, fwdSOL, pledged SOL, and SOL equivalents

·Advanced M&A Strategy: Forward continued to actively evaluate potential acquisitions of digital asset treasury companies and other strategic businesses. The Company’s acquisition criteria remain focused on transactions that increase the scale of its SOL treasury and are accretive to SOL per share and investors.
Forward Industries Solana Treasury Update
·Treasury Holdings: As of June 30, 2026, the Company held 7,552,698 SOL and SOL equivalents, compared with 7,044,079 SOL as of March 31, 2026. As of August 3, 2026, Forward held 7,807,022 SOL and SOL equivalents, representing approximately 1.3% of Solana’s circulating supply.
·SOL per Share: SOL per share on a fully diluted basis increased to 0.0730 as of June 30, 2026, from 0.0669 as of March 31, 2026, representing sequential growth of 9%, or approximately 36% on an annualized basis. As of August 3, 2026, the Company grew SOL per share further to approximately 0.0754.
·Staking: Forward continued to stake nearly all of its SOL holdings to t

Forward Industries Reports Fiscal Year 2025
Financial Results
NEW YORK—December 11, 2025--Forward
Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: FWDI) (the "Company" or “Forward Industries”), the leading Solana treasury company, today reported financial results for the twelve months ended September 30, 2025 (“Fiscal 2025”).
“Our Fiscal 2025 results reflect less than one month of activity from our recently launched Solana treasury strategy, yet we continued to execute with discipline throughout the quarter to build the foundation for long-term SOL-per-share growth,” said Kyle Samani, Chairman of Forward Industries. “While we are still early in our operational buildout, in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2025 we generated approximately $4.6 million in staking revenue, and we expect this segment to scale meaningfully as we expand our treasury and unlock additional on-chain yield opportunities.”
“It's also important to highlight the accounting treatment of our SOL holdings. Current accounting standards for digital assets require non-cash changes in the fair value of SOL to be recorded as a component of other non-operating income/loss. These fluctuations do not impact our cash balance, yield generation, or ability to continue compounding SOL-per-share. We believe this distinction is essential in evaluating our financial performance, which is driven by strategy execution—not short-term market volatility.”
FY 2025 Financial Summary (vs. FY 2024)
Highlights from the Company’s results for Fiscal 2025 from its Solana treasury, as well as its global design company serving medical and technology companies, were as follows:
·Net revenue for Fiscal 2025 was $18.2 million compared to $20.0 million in the prior year.
·Total operating expenses were $13.6 million compared to $7.3 million in the prior year.
·Forward Industries’ Fiscal 2025 results include a $160.0 million non-cash, unrealized loss related to mark-to-market accounting adjustments on its SOL holdings. This U.S. GAAP-required treatment reflects changes in estimated fair value and does not represent an actual outflow of cash.
·Net loss for Fiscal 2025 was $167.0 million compared to $2.0 million in the prior year. The increase in net loss was driven largely by the non-cash, unrealized loss related to the Company’s SOL holdings.

The Mooni lighting product was featured in the Good Morning America Holiday show and we have started to make notable progress with US retailers with our new product offerings. I therefore look to the new fiscal year with confidence for Forward’s future.”
