CoinShares International Ltd., a European-based investment firm specializing in the digital asset economy, has released its second-quarter financial results, showcasing impressive growth. The publicly traded firm reported an adjusted EBITDA of £26.6 million, up from £11.4 million in the same period last year—an increase of over 235 percent.
Remarkably, the company achieved a total income of £25.8 million, a substantial rise from £5.3 million in the second quarter of 2023, marking a growth of more than 387 percent.
Crypto Drives Success!
Jean-Marie Mognetti, the CRO of CoinShares, attributed this palpable growth to significant gains in the crypto industry. He noted that most crypto assets maintained their gains from the first quarter through the second quarter.
“In the second quarter of 2024, CoinShares built upon the strong momentum established in Q1. This continued performance in Q2 demonstrates that our Q1 was not an outlier data point, but the result of continued efforts,”
Crucial Q2’s Operational Highlights
During the second quarter, CoinShares made bold moves to ensure sustainable future growth prospects. For instance, the company successfully purchased Valkyrie’s spot Bitcoin ETF, BRRR, which currently holds more than $470 million in assets under management.
The company also successfully sold its FTX claims, worth about $28.7 million, thus significantly bolstering its dividend policy to shareholders.
“The recent special dividend following the disposal of our FTX claim further underscores our commitment to this goal. Simultaneously, we’re driving growth by expanding in the US and enhancing our European distribution,”
Market Reaction and Share Performance
The outstanding performance of CoinShares in the second quarter led to a rally in CS shares, which rose by as much as 2 percent on Tuesday. Consequently, CS shares are now up more than 26 percent year-to-date.
CoinShares is proving to be a major player in the digital asset space. With strong Q2 results and strategic moves, the company is poised for continued growth.
