- Total revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 increased 4%, to ¥119.7 billion ($752 million) from ¥114.6 billion ($720 million) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. For the fiscal 2026 full year, total revenue increased 25%, to ¥480.2 billion ($3,019 million), from ¥383.3 billion ($2,410 million) in the fiscal 2025 full year. Both increases were driven mainly by increases in transaction revenue - institutional and revenue from cover counterparty transactions.
- Adjusted Revenue2 for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 decreased 18%, to ¥2,907 million ($18 million) from ¥3,545 million ($22 million) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease was driven primarily by a decline in Marketplace Trading Volume, partially offset by an increase in staking revenue of ¥622 million and investment management fee revenue of ¥139 million. For the fiscal 2026 full year, Adjusted Revenue decreased 3%, to ¥13,071 million ($82 million) from ¥13,478 million ($85 million) in the fiscal 2025 full year, driven primarily by a decline Marketplace Trading Volume, partially offset by an increase in staking revenue of ¥2,574 million ($16 million) and investment management fee revenue of ¥139 million ($0.9 million).
- Verified Accounts3 increased 10%, to 2,527,772 as of March 31, 2026 from 2,291,103 as of March 31, 2025.
- Customer Assets4 decreased 15%, to ¥728.1 billion ($4,577 million) as of March 31, 2026 from ¥859.2 billion ($5,401 million) as of March 31, 2025. Even though the quantity of digital tokens held by customers remained relatively stable during the fiscal 2026 full year, Customer Assets decreased due primarily to the decline in the market price of certain crypto assets, including Bitcoin and XRP.
- Assets Under Management (AUM) were ¥128.8 billion ($810 million) as of March 31, 20265.
- Marketplace Trading Volume6 decreased 29%, to ¥65.7 billion ($413 million) for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 from ¥92.0 billion ($578 million) for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, and decreased 8%, to ¥309.6 billion ($1,946 million) in the fiscal 2026 full year from ¥337.5 billion ($2,122 million) in the fiscal 2025 full year. Fluctuations in Marketplace Trading Volume are usually driven by crypto-asset industry market volumes and conditions generally, and the size and level of trading activity at Coincheck specifically, as well as market-price fluctuations in the crypto assets frequently traded.
- Net loss was ¥1,217 million ($7.6 million) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to net profit of ¥642 million ($4.0 million) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. The swing to a net loss was driven partially by a fourth quarter fiscal 2026 decline in Marketplace Trading Volume and increase in selling, general and administrative expenses consisting mainly of (i) employee severance expenses of ¥334 million ($2.1 million) related primarily to the March 31, 2026 departure of the Company's former CEO, (ii) professional fees of ¥261 million ($1.6 million) related to a potential transaction with which the Company decided not to move forward, and (iii) capitalized software impairment cost of ¥197 million ($1.2 million) relating to a particular Coincheck, Inc. development project (collectively, "Certain Specific Fourth Quarter 2026 Expenses"). For the fiscal 2026 full year, net loss was ¥1,833 million ($11.4 million), as compared to a net loss of ¥14,350 million ($90.2 million) in the fiscal 2025 full year. The fiscal 2025 full-year loss was heavily impacted by ¥18,321 million ($115.2 million) of transaction expenses7, partially offset by a ¥1,435 million ($9.0 million) gain from the change in fair value of warrant liability. Net loss in the fiscal 2026 full year was driven primarily by a decline in Marketplace Trading Volume and an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses consisting mainly of the Certain Specific Fourth Quarter 2026 Expenses.
- Adjusted EBITDA8 was ¥(864) million ($(5.4) million) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of ¥719 million ($4.5 million) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. For the fiscal 2026 full year, Adjusted EBITDA decreased 61% to ¥1,666 million ($10.5 million), from ¥4,283 million ($26.9 million) in the fiscal 2025 full year. These declines were related mainly to lower Adjusted Revenue driven mostly by declines in Marketplace Trading Volume and increased selling, general and administrative expenses consisting mainly of the Certain Specific Fourth Quarter 2026 Expenses.

- Adjusted Revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 decreased 24%, to ¥2,907 million ($18 million) from ¥3,833 million ($24 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2026. The decline was driven primarily by lower Marketplace Trading Volume in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026.

- Net loss was ¥1,217 million ($7.6 million) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to net profit of ¥405 million ($2.5 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2026. The swing to a net loss was driven by, in fourth quarter fiscal 2026, lower Adjusted Revenue and higher selling, general and administrative expenses consisting mainly of the Certain Specific Fourth Quarter 2026 Expenses.
- Adjusted EBITDA was ¥(864) million ($(5.4) million) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of ¥1,428 million ($9.0 million) in the third quarter of fiscal 2026.

Non-IFRS financial measures
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Transaction Revenue and Adjusted Revenue
In addition to the Company’s results determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, the Company presents EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Transaction Revenue and Adjusted Revenue, each of which is a non-IFRS measure, because the Company believes they are useful in evaluating its operating performance.
EBITDA represents net profit (loss) for the period before the impact of taxes, interest, depreciation, and amortization of intangible assets, and Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA, further adjusted, as follows. Adjusted EBITDA has been calculated differently beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2026 than it was previously calculated for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. When the Company announced its financial results on May 13, 2025 for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, the further adjustment to calculate Adjusted EBITDA consisted only of transaction expenses. Beginning with the first quarter for the year ended March 31, 2026 (and for the foreseeable future), in evaluating how Adjusted EBITDA should be calculated, the Company considers, in addition to transaction expenses, the non-cash expenses of (i) share-based compensation, which the Company did not have prior to April 1, 2025, the majority of which consists of Coincheck Group restricted share unit awards granted to two of Coincheck, Inc.’s founders and awards granted related to the Company's December 2024 business combination that resulted in the Company's listing on Nasdaq, and (ii) change in fair value of warrant liability, which fluctuates quarter to quarter based on the Company’s share price.
Adjusted Transaction Revenue represents Total revenue, adjusted to exclude (i) commission received, (ii) staking revenue, (iii) investment management fee revenue and (iv) other revenue, as further adjusted to deduct cost of sales from (v) Retail and (vi) Institutional.
Adjusted Revenue represents Total revenue, adjusted to deduct cost of sales from (i) Retail, (ii) Institutional and (iii) staking reward distributions.
The Company uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, and now also Adjusted Transaction Revenue and Adjusted Revenue, to evaluate its ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes and believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Transaction Revenue, and Adjusted Revenue may be helpful to investors because they provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Transaction Revenue and Adjusted Revenue are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.
A reconciliation is provided below for each non-IFRS financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Investors are encouraged to review the related IFRS Accounting Standards financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-IFRS financial measures to their most directly comparable IFRS Accounting Standards financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate Coincheck Group’s business.
Please see tables on the following pages for reconciliations of non-IFRS Accounting Standards financial measures.

Prior to the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company had no share-based compensation expense. In evaluating how Adjusted EBITDA should be calculated for the first three quarters of fiscal 2026 (and the foreseeable future), the Company considered, in addition to transaction expenses, the non-cash expenses of (i) share-based compensation, the majority of which consisted of Coincheck Group restricted share unit awards granted to two of Coincheck, Inc.’s co-founders, and other restricted share unit awards related to the business combination with Thunder Bridge Capital Partners IV, and (ii) change in fair value of warrant liability, which fluctuates quarter to quarter based on the Company’s share price. The Company believes that showing its EBITDA results, further adjusted to exclude share-based compensation and change in fair value of warrant liability, can present a clearer view of the Company’s operational performance, and is helpful to view together with EBITDA and net profit or loss.
