| Metric | Latest | YoYYoY means Year-over-Year. It compares the latest annual value with the previous annual value to show long-term trend strength. | QoQQoQ means Quarter-over-Quarter. It compares the latest quarter with the immediately previous quarter to show short-term momentum changes. |
|---|---|---|---|
| RevenueThe total money that came through the front door from selling things, before paying a single bill. Think of it as the grand total of every credit card swipe from customers. (YoY compares this year to last year's performance, while QoQ compares the current three months to the previous three). | $813455 | +1318.8% | +46.4% |
| Net IncomeThe absolute bottom line. If the company paid every single supplier, employee, banker, and tax collector, this is the actual money left in their pocket at the end of the day. | $-45.3M | +9.0% | +250.1% |
| Gross MarginThe basic markup. If they sell a $100 pair of sneakers, this percentage tells you how much of that price tag is profit right after paying for the rubber and shoelaces, but before paying for things like store rent or TV commercials. | +62.7% | +100.9% | 0.0% |
| Operating MarginThe 'day job' efficiency score. Out of every dollar a customer spends, this shows how many cents the company keeps after making the product AND paying for all the everyday corporate overhead (like salaries, marketing, and keeping the lights on). | -2333.4% | +97.3% | +63.3% |
| Net MarginThe final take-home percentage. When you strip away every conceivable cost, tax, and interest payment, this is the exact number of cents the company truly gets to keep from every dollar in sales. | -5570.6% | +93.6% | +139.1% |
| Free Cash FlowThe holy grail of corporate cash. It's the spendable, physical money left over after the business pays for its daily operations AND buys the big, expensive upgrades (like new factories or servers) it needs to survive. This is the 'free' money they can use to pay dividends or buy back stock. | $-14.8M | +51.2% | -156.1% |
| FCF MarginThe ultimate cash conversion rate. It shows how good the company is at turning regular sales directly into cold, hard, spendable cash. A high percentage means the business is an absolute cash-printing machine. | -1815.7% | +96.6% | -74.9% |
| Debt / EquityThe financial risk gauge. It compares how much of the company's empire was built using borrowed money (loans) versus the owners' own money (shareholders). A high number means they are heavily leveraged and playing a riskier game; a low number means they are playing it safe. | 20.7% | +124.2% | -43.6% |
| Current RatioThe 12-month survival check. It simply compares the cash they have right now (plus things they can quickly turn into cash) against the immediate bills they absolutely must pay this year. A score above 1 means they have enough in the wallet to cover the upcoming bills without panicking. | 2.68x | +1455.6% | +19.1% |
| Total AssetsThe absolute size of the company's empire. It bundles together absolutely everything of value they own—from the cash in the register and the inventory in the warehouse, to the software patents in the vault and the factories on the ground. | $51.8M | +1311.3% | +61.5% |
| Metric | Annual (A vs E) | Annual Surprise | Quarter (A vs E) | Quarter Surprise |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EPS Surprise | -9.40 vs -3.06 | -207.2% | 0.92 vs 2.24 | -58.9% |
| Revenue Surprise | $813455 vs $1.0M | -21.6% | $357693 vs $1.3M | -71.8% |

We'll start this afternoon's call with prepared remarks from Hyunsu and David, followed by Q&A. I'll now turn the call over to our CEO, Hyunsu Jung. Hyunsu Jung: Thank you, Jason. To those joining us today, welcome to Hyperion DeFi's Second Quarter of 2026 Earnings Call. A little over a short year ago, Hyperion DeFi was born from what was formerly Eyenovia. What once was is no longer. At Hyperion DeFi, we revamped the company's operating strategy to the accumulation of HYPE and directly building in the Hyperliquid ecosystem. We made a firm commitment that we would be more than just hype, benefiting from not just holding the asset but uniquely building multiple businesses atop it that have the potential to utilize it profitably and most importantly, independent of its underlying price volatility. I'm proud to say that we are continuing to deliver on that promise. To that end, our focus has been on developing unique products and services that actively support the growth of the Hyperliquid ecosystem and return that value to our shareholders. Our model is no longer a concept that we ask investors to envision. It has become reality. We continue to lead in designing and deploying strategies that generate differentiated revenues not just on our HYPE Holdings but across key on-chain infrastructure, each compounding alongside the fastest moving ecosystem in the digital asset space. I'm most excited to share these developments, covering not just what was accomplished in Q2 but the updates that are happening in real time, which we believe demonstrates our standalone positioning, unique value proposition and best-in-class business model. At the same time, this was a quarter that truly tested our model. With rapid innovation often comes changes that …
