Miami, November 9 (Reuters) / PRNewswire / -- Securitize Corp. ("Securitize" or "the Company") ( NYSE : SECZ ) today announced its financial results for the third quarter of 2026, ending September 30, 2026.

"In the third quarter, we went public on the New York Stock Exchange, with the average tokenized asset size reaching a company record of $5 billion, a 39% increase from a year ago," said Carlos Domingo, Chairman and CEO of Securitize. "This growth comes from top-tier asset management companies bringing real products onto the blockchain, including new products from ARK Invest, BlackRock, and Neuberger. For me, this clearly indicates that institutions have moved beyond the trial phase. We agreed to acquire River One, which brings us into the field of asset-backed financing; and Securitize Stocks, launched at the end of this quarter, allows qualified global investors to trade U.S. stocks on the blockchain and enjoy the same rights as those who hold the stocks (1). In addition to our fully regulated trading venues, we also plan to support tokenized securities trading venues under the recently announced SEC innovation exemptions, as more pathways onto the blockchain are beneficial for the entire market. This quarter has shown the direction of the capital markets, and we plan to become the infrastructure upon which their operation depends."

Financial Highlights of the Third Quarter of 2026

• In the third quarter, the platform's average tokenized assets reached a record $5 billion, a 39% increase from the same period last year; as of September 30, 2026, the total value of tokenized assets on the platform was $4.8 billion, representing a growth of 9%.
• Total revenue amounted to 18.6 million US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 13%, representing the second-highest quarterly total revenue in the company's history.
• Net loss of $66.3 million, with a diluted net loss of $0.41 per share. Approximately $60 million of this (about 90% of the net loss) was due to non-cash expenses and accounting costs, mainly related to the company's business merger and public listing.
• After adjustment, EBITDA incurred a loss of $2 million, while in the same period last year, adjusted EBITDA reported a profit of $3.6 million.
• In the third quarter of 2026, the total trading volume (4) was 4.3 billion US dollars, representing a year-on-year increase of 20%.
• As of September 30, 2026, the number of active funds ("SFS") provided by Securitize Fund Services was 669, which is roughly the same as the same period last year.
• As of September 30, 2026, the total AUA (6) of Securitize Fund Services amounted to 25.2 billion US dollars, a decrease of 29%.

Unless otherwise stated, all percentage comparisons in this press release are for the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025.

Securitize Chief Financial Officer Francisco Flores stated: "We are very satisfied with the performance in the third quarter of 2026, which is our first reporting period since going public. Total revenue amounted to 18.6 million US dollars, a 29% increase from the previous quarter. This is also our second-highest quarterly revenue in history and the highest level for the first nine months to date. After adjustments, EBITDA incurred a loss of 2 million US dollars, representing a 64% improvement from the previous quarter. Approximately 90% of the net loss reported this quarter came from expenses and accounting costs, mainly non-cash in nature, including costs related to business mergers and listing on the New York Stock Exchange, as well as costs associated with warrants."

Flores concluded by stating: "Our recent financial focus remains on driving revenue growth, improving operational efficiency, and moving towards sustained profitability. At the end of the quarter, we held approximately $300 million in cash and cash equivalents with no debt, which provides us with financial flexibility to continue investing in our growth plans and manage our capital structure at the appropriate time. To this end, our board of directors has authorized a stock repurchase program worth $50 million, reflecting our confidence in the long-term prospects of Securitize and our commitment to prudent capital management."

Stock Repurchase Plan

On November 6, 2026, the board of directors of Securitize authorized the repurchase of up to $50 million in the company's common stock. This repurchase program will last until December 31, 2027, and there is no requirement for the company to purchase any shares. It can also be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time. The funds for the repurchase will come from existing cash.

Agree to acquire River One, expanding into asset-backed financing.

Today, Securitize announced that it has signed a final agreement to acquire River One. River One is an asset-backed financing platform targeting institutions, which relies on the stablecoin economy. River One was incubated by Framework Ventures and has received investment support from Framework Ventures and Maple Finance. This acquisition is expected to enhance the warehousing financing capabilities of Securitize's tokenization infrastructure, expand the company's serviceable market, and create new revenue opportunities from institutional financing activities. The transaction is anticipated to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2026, subject to meeting customary delivery conditions.

Securitize Stocks

Launch of Global On-Chain Trading for US Stocks with Complete Securities Rights: On October 8, 2026, Securitize launched Securitize Stocks, enabling qualified investors in the United States, Europe, and other authorized jurisdictions to access tokenized rights to US-listed stocks through its regulated infrastructure (7). Securitize Stocks was initially launched on Solana. This product offers securities rights supported one-to-one by the underlying stocks, retaining the applicable shareholder rights and economic benefits, including dividends and voting rights. The initial products include those of leading US companies such as Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Tesla, and Amazon.

Securitize Stocks does not operate under the SEC innovation exemption (8). In the third quarter, SEC granted this temporary and conditional exemption relief to certain tokenized securities trading venues and liquidity providers. This product operates within the existing regulatory framework of Securitize, which includes its SEC registered brokerage traders, alternative trading systems supervised by SEC, as well as SEC registered transfer agents. The company believes that this exemption provides a welcome additional pathway for the on-chain securities market and is confident that as the regulatory framework evolves, its regulated infrastructure will enable it to support the tokenized capital market.

Business Highlights of the Third Quarter of 2026

Completed listing on the NYSE and launched SECZ on the blockchain: On July 1, 2026, Securitize completed a business merger with Cantor Equity Partners II and began trading on the NYSE under the code SECZ from July 2. In tandem with the public listing, Securitize tokenized its own shares into tokens supported by the issuer through Securitize Transfer Agent, and conducted a transaction of NMS securities via its registered brokerage dealer Securitize Markets. This demonstrates how listed companies can utilize regulated blockchain infrastructure to support the digital ownership of their shares and endow them with practical functions.

Launched new tokenized investment products with BlackRock, ARK Invest, and Neuberger: BlackRock expanded its tokenized cash products by introducing BRSRV, which is a money market fund tokenized by Securitize and designed to support stablecoin reserve management. ARK Invest tokenized its ARK Venture Fund ( ARKVX ) through Securitize, while Neuberger launched Neuberger Securitize High Income Tokenized Fund ( HINC ), bringing more venture capital and fixed-income strategies onto the blockchain.

Obtained the registration qualification of SEC investment advisor: Securitize Capital has become a registered investment advisor under SEC, enhancing the company's regulated financial services capabilities and supporting its ability to develop and manage investment products for the institutional market.

Promoting tokenization and on-chain capital formation supported by issuers: Securitize has announced a collaboration with Cantor Fitzgerald and Co to facilitate the first public offering (IPO) on-chain and subsequent issuances for listed companies. This collaboration is built upon the brokerage trading capabilities of Securitize and aims to extend tokenization into the capital formation process. On another note, Securitize and CURRENC Capital have announced a strategic partnership to advance issuer-supported tokenization of listed stocks, supporting a model that links tokenized securities to the underlying stock rights and earnings.

Expand the coverage of Securitize in blockchain, DeFi markets, international markets, and asset categories: Expand the BUIDL fund to Tempo, integrate the Loopscale credit markets on Neuberger Securitize High Income Tokenized Fund and Solana, providing holders with new ways to use tokenized fixed income in decentralized finance.

Non-GAAP financial indicators

This press release contains the adjusted EBITDA, which is a financial indicator that has not been calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The adjusted EBITDA is derived from the net profit or loss for continuing operations, after excluding certain non-cash items, one-time expenses, and other items listed in the accompanying adjustment table.

Management uses the adjusted EBITDA to evaluate certain operational performances of the company over different periods. This indicator should be used as a supplement, rather than a substitute for or superior to the net profit or loss and other financial indicators prepared according to GAAP. Other companies may calculate indicators with the same name in different ways, therefore their comparability is limited. The quantitative adjustments between this indicator and the most directly comparable GAAP indicator—net profit or loss—have been included in the financial statements attached to this press release.

Stock Repurchase Plan

The repurchase plan does not require the company to purchase a specific quantity or amount of shares.
