HYPD Investment Thesis We believe our Q4'25 results demonstrate that we have transcended the strategy and capabilities of a simple buy-and-hold 'DAT' (digital asset treasury company), and instead, we are differentiated as the first U.S. publicly listed DeFi company building on the Hyperliquid blockchain. We are unique among digital asset treasuries with five diversified operating business lines. Our 'Triple-Dip' HYPE deployment strategy, by which we earned approximately ~3x base staking income in Q4'25, is possible because of our management's unique ability to build on the Hyperliquid Blockchain. We achieved +87% quarter-over-quarter growth in Adjusted Gross Profit ( 1) , driven by new DeFi Monetization and Ecosystem Rewards strategies which were just beginning to ramp in Q4'25 (each at >1,000% Q-o-Q growth). , driven by new DeFi Monetization and Ecosystem Rewards strategies which were just beginning to ramp in Q4'25 (each at >1,000% Q-o-Q growth). We operate with strong earnings leverage and a low cost base built for scale, and achieved (30%) quarter-over-quarter decline in Operating Expenses Excluding Stock-Based Compensation ( 5) . . We anticipate $4M-$6M Adjusted Gross Profit(1) in 2026, ~4x our 2025 FY results. Our businesses are designed to simultaneously promote and monetize adoption of the Hyperliquid blockchain. In Q4, our unique ability to 'triple-dip' our HYPE tokens across multiple deployment strategies generated ~3x the income would have otherwise generated from staking in isolation. Our 'HYPD Triple-Dip' strategy is: 1) Stake our HYPE 2) Deploy the staked HYPE into another business activity – our Validator, Yield Enhancement, or DeFi Monetization, and 3) Position ourselves to receive Ecosystem Rewards Adjusted Gross Profit(1) in Q3'25 and Q4'25 Adjusted Gross Profit(1), a Non-GAAP Metric, aims to capture all of Hyperion DeFi's value-add operating business activities beyond simply buying and holding HYPE tokens. In total, Adjusted Gross Profit(1) increased +87% quarter-over-quarter from $439 thousand in Q3'25 to $821 thousand in Q4'25. Below is a summary of all six of our operating business activities included within Adjusted Gross Profit(1): Staking Yield : We stake our HYPE to our Validator and earn rewards. In Q4'25, the Company earned 8,713 HYPE tokens from staking, up 17% quarter-over-quarter versus 7,437 in Q3'25. On a dollar basis, our HYPE earned from staking generated $305 thousand Adjusted Gross Profit ( 1) in Q4'25 versus $340 thousand in Q3'25 (-10% quarter-over-quarter), given the Effective Average HYPE Price In-Period ( 3) declined from 45.76 in Q3'25 to 35.12 in Q4'25. in Q4'25 versus $340 thousand in Q3'25 (-10% quarter-over-quarter), given the Effective Average HYPE Price In-Period declined from 45.76 in Q3'25 to 35.12 in Q4'25. In Q4'25, we updated our Joint Validator structure which causes Staking Yield on third-party delegated HYPE tokens to our Validator to be added to our GAAP Revenue and Cost of Revenue on and after December 15, 2025. These components on third-party rewards offset to zero in Adjusted Gross Profit(1). Validator Commissions : The Company operates its Validator under a Joint Validator Operators Agreement (together with Kinetiq and Pier Two) and earns commissions on rewards delivered to third-party tokens delegated to the Validator. 11.8 million HYPE tokens were delegated to our Validator as of December 31, 2025, which is +43% versus 8.2 million delegated as of September 30, 2025. In Q4'25, the Company earned 1,362 HYPE tokens as validator commissions, up 197% quarter-over-quarter versus 458 in Q3'25. On a dollar basis, our HYPE earned from validator commissions generated $49 thousand Adjusted Gross Profit ( 1) in Q4'25 versus $21 thousand in Q3'25 (+127% quarter-over-quarter), given the Effective Average HYPE Price In-Period ( 3) declined from 45.76 in Q3'25 to 35.12 in Q4'25. in Q4'25 versus $21 thousand in Q3'25 (+127% quarter-over-quarter), given the Effective Average HYPE Price In-Period declined from 45.76 in Q3'25 to 35.12 in Q4'25. In Q4'25, we updated our Joint Validator structure which causes Validator Commissions owed to our partners Kinetiq and Pier Two to be added to our GAAP Revenue and Cost of Revenue on and after December 15, 2025. These components on third-party commissions offset to zero in Adjusted Gross Profit(1). Yield Enhancement : The Company pursues accretive strategies to enhance yield earned on its tokens. Yield Enhancement activities generated $79 thousand Adjusted Gross Profit ( 1) in Q4'25 versus $78 thousand in Q3'25 (+2% quarter-over-quarter). in Q4'25 versus $78 thousand in Q3'25 (+2% quarter-over-quarter). Q4'25 and Q3'25 Yield Enhancement activities included selling covered call options on the price of HYPE to institutional counterparties, collateralized by the Company's LSTs. In Q1'26, we announced a partnership with Rysk to launch an Institutional Volatility Income Vault, further optimizing our Yield Enhancement capabilities while building the infrastructure to accommodate third-party HYPE tokens within the Vault in the future. DeFi Monetization : The Company supports and monetizes Hyperliquid DeFi activity with sustainable, scalable practices. DeFi Monetization activity generated $102 thousand Adjusted Gross Profit ( 1) in Q4'25 versus less than $1 thousand Q3'25, as our new strategies began to ramp. in Q4'25 versus less than $1 thousand Q3'25, as our new strategies began to ramp. DeFi Monetization includes our Temporary HYPE Asset Use Agreements and protocol partnerships. Trading volumes on our Felix-partner markets cumulatively exceeded $2.8 billion as of March 23, 2026 (14) . . In Q1'26, we announced a partnership with the HyperLend protocol to create a whitelisted lending pool native to the HyperEVM network whereby we can borrow on-chain via smart contracts at a rate significantly below our existing borrowing costs (4.0% vs. 8.0%). In addition, we expect to selectively open the pool to third-party participants over time, generating additional diversified fee income opportunities for us. In Q1'26, the Company entered into a HYPE Asset Use Service Agreement with Silhouette AG ('Silhouette'). The Company agreed to link 100,000 of its owned and staked HYPE tokens to the trading wallet of Silhouette, allowing Silhouette and its customers to receive reduced trading fees on the Hyperliquid decentralized exchange, and entitling the Company to earn a portion of those fee savings as income, plus 100% of staking rewards. Ecosystem Rewards : Through our active participation in the Hyperliquid DeFi ecosystem, the Company positions itself for the receipt of future potential token airdrops, protocol incentives, and other rewards that may become available periodically. Ecosystem Rewards generated $285 thousand Adjusted Gross Profit ( 1) in Q4'25, versus none in Q3'25. in Q4'25, versus none in Q3'25. In November 2025, we received 1,918,478 KNTQ tokens in Kinetiq's airdrop token generation event. As of March 23, 2026, Q1 QTD we have received 1,000,000 HPL tokens from Hyperlend in connection with our on-chain credit pool partnership. Given our partnerships with other Hyperliquid ecosystem participants such as Rysk, Felix, and Silhouette, and given that we are continuing to accrue additional Kinetiq points, we anticipate additional ecosystem rewards in 2026. Life Sciences : Hyperion DeFi continues to develop its proprietary Optejet User Filled Device (UFD). Life Sciences did not generate any Adjusted Gross Profit ( 1) in Q4'25 or Q3'25. in Q4'25 or Q3'25. In Q1'26, we executed a non-binding Letter of Intent (LOI) to monetize the Optejet, our last remaining product within the Life Sciences segment, and the transaction may close in Q2'26.

Footnotes 'Adjusted Gross Profit' is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted Gross Profit is defined as all in-period gross profit generated by the Company's operations excluding buying digital assets and associated mark-to-market price movements. Such activities include staking yield, validator operations, yield enhancement activity, DeFi monetization partnerships, ecosystem rewards, and life sciences operations. It is reconciled to the GAAP measure 'Revenue' by (i) subtracting Cost of Revenue, (ii) adding accumulated but unrealized staking yield on LSTs, (iii) adding the portion of GAAP operating income which was generated from yield enhancement strategies (such as selling covered calls), (iv) adding the portion of GAAP 'Realized gains – digital assets' generated from ecosystem rewards such as the receipt of airdrop tokens, and (v) adding the portion of GAAP 'Interest Income' generated from digital assets receivables. We believe 'Adjusted Gross Profit' is a helpful financial measure to our management and investors as it aims to capture all in-period gross profit generated by our active operational strategies without the impact of (i) the temporary GAAP earnings volatility of HYPE to LST conversion and LST to HYPE reconversion, (ii) dispersed GAAP presentment of our operational strategies across various Statements of Operations sections, or (iii) the impacts of realized or unrealized gains or losses on our digital assets. We believe Adjusted Gross Profit is a critical metric to quantify and compare our core operational activities between periods. The following are unaudited supplemental operating disclosures: Gross HYPE Tokens, the number of HYPE tokens staked at the Kinetiq x Hyperion Validator, Validator Commissions in HYPE, and Staking Yield in HYPE. Calculated as the sum of the in-period Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit components of (a) Validator Commissions plus (b) Staking Yield (such figures being expressed in-period in US Dollars), divided by the sum of (c) Validator Commissions in HYPE plus (d) Staking Yield in HYPE. 'Gross HYPE Holdings' is a non-GAAP measure. Gross HYPE Holdings is defined as the gross market value of the Company's HYPE assuming (a) all temporary HYPE token use agreements are exited and (b) all LSTs were converted back to HYPE tokens as of the end of each respective reporting quarter. It is reconciled to the GAAP measure 'HYPE digital assets' by adding (i) HYPE digital assets receivable (without subtracting provisions for credit losses or unamortized nonrefundable upfront fees), (ii) HYPE LSTs at carrying value (including without limitation HiHYPE, kHYPE, and kmHYPE) and (iii) the unrealized accretion (dilution) expected upon LST to HYPE reconversion as of the end of each respective reporting quarter. We believe Gross HYPE Holdings is a helpful non-GAAP financial measure to our management and investors because it eliminates the temporary HYPE value impacts caused by our DeFi Monetization token movements as well as the conversion and reconversion between HYPE tokens and LSTs, which (a) causes staking yield on our LSTs not to be recognized in-period in accordance with GAAP and (b) does not recognize upward mark-to-market movements in underlying HYPE tokens given LSTs are carried at the lower of cost basis or impaired value. As such, it provides useful information about our balance sheet, allows for greater transparency with respect to important metrics used by our management for financial, risk management and operational decision-making, and provides an additional tool for investors to understand and compare our operating results across reporting periods. "Operating Expenses Excluding Stock-Based Compensation" is a non-GAAP measure. Operating Expenses Excluding Stock-Based Compensation is defined as the Company's operational expenses in-period excluding treasury value movements and stock-based compensation. It is reconciled to the GAAP measure 'Selling, general and administrative expense' by (i) subtracting stock-based compensation expense and (ii) adding Research and development expense. Operating Expenses Excluding Stock-Based Compensation provides a metric of total operating expenditures in-period without the impact of treasury value movement or stock-based compensation, thereby creating a helpful metric for operational expense comparisons between different periods for our management and investors. "Treasury Gains (Losses)" is a non-GAAP measure. Treasury Gains (Losses) is defined as the gross mark-to-market change in the company's digital asset treasury portfolio each period, without accounting for temporary GAAP impacts due to HYPE to LST conversion (or LST to HYPE reconversion) or operating income driven by airdrops or yield enhancement activity. It is reconciled to the GAAP measure 'Net Operating Income (Expenses)" by (a) adding (i) Research and development expense, (ii) Selling, general, and administrative expense, (iii) Provision for credit losses, and (iv) the in-period change in unrealized accretion (dilution) expected upon LST to HYPE reconversion, and (b) subtracting (i) accumulated but unrealized staking yield on LSTs, (ii) operating income from airdrops, and (iii) operating income from yield enhancement strategies. Following these adjustments, Treasury Gains (Losses) is a singular metric that can present mark-to-market treasury changes in isolation, which we believe is a helpful metric for management and investors given our large digital asset treasury position and the volatile nature of digital assets. "Adjusted Other Income (Expense)" is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted Other Income (Expense) reflects management's view of recurring activities outside of core operating income and operating expenses. It is reconciled to the GAAP measure "Total Other Income (Expense), Net" by (a) adding back (i) interest expense, (ii) non-recurring gains from reductions in life sciences liabilities, and (iii) other non-recurring items which we do not consider material in nature, and (b) subtracting the portion of GAAP 'Interest Income' generated from digital assets receivables. The items added back to Adjusted Other Income (Expense) are excluded because they are non-cash in nature, or because the amount and timing of these items are unpredictable, are not driven by core results of operations, and render comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful. The item subtracted from Adjusted Other Income (Expense) is already captured in the Non-GAAP metric 'Adjusted Gross Profit', as further described in Footnote 1. We believe Adjusted Other Income (Expense) provides a helpful view to management and investors regarding recurring and ongoing income and expense items outside of operating income and operating expenses, presented in a way to compare these elements over time. 'Adjusted EBITDA' is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is meant to reflect management's view of recurring business activities and a more comparable view of the mark-to-market impacts on our digital asset treasury holdings in-period. It is reconciled to the GAAP measure 'Net Income (Loss)' by removing (i) stock-based compensation, (ii) interest expense, (iii) provision for credit losses, (iv) income taxes, (v) depreciation and amortization expense (excluding amortization of operating lease), (vi) non-recurring gains from reductions in life sciences liabilities, and (vii) other non-recurring items which we do not consider material in nature; and, it adds the in-period change in unrealized accretion (dilution) expected upon LST to HYPE reconversion. The items excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA are excluded because they are non-cash in nature, or because the amount and timing of these items are unpredictable, are not driven by core results of operations, and render comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful. We add to Adjusted EBITDA the in-period change in unrealized accretion (dilution) expected upon LST to HYPE reconversion to give a more complete picture of mark-to-market impacts on our HYPE holdings, disregarding the temporary impacts of conversion and reconversion between HYPE and LSTs. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to understand and compare our operating results across accounting periods, for risk management and operational decision-making purposes. This non-GAAP measure provides investors with additional information in evaluating the Company's operating performance. 'Net Asset Value' is a non-GAAP measure. Net Asset Value is defined as the market value of our marketable digital assets less net outstanding debt. It is reconciled to the GAAP measure 'HYPE digital assets' as adjusted to 'Gross HYPE Holdings' (described more fully in Footnote 4) by (i) adding KNTQ digital assets, (ii) adding Current Assets, (iii) subtracting Current Liabilities, and (iv) subtracting Notes Payable (Non-current portion, without subtracting corresponding debt discounts or any unamortized issuance expenses). We believe Net Asset Value is a helpful non-GAAP financial measure to our management and investors because it provides a more complete picture of our net liquid and marketable assets. It does not include Other digital assets which may not be immediately marketable. It does not include other non-current assets or non-current liabilities beyond the aforementioned items. The Company believes Net Asset Value provides useful information about our balance sheet and financial performance, enhances the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, allows for greater transparency with respect to important metrics used by our management for financial, risk management and operational decision-making, and provides an additional tool for investors to use to understand and compare our operating results across accounting periods. Represents in-period accrued staking yield on HYPE LSTs. Staking yield on LSTs is not recognized in-period in accordance with GAAP; instead, LST staking yield may be recognized with an associated realized gain upon future reconversion from LSTs back into HYPE. Represents the estimated future financial implications if all company-owned LSTs were reconverted to HYPE at the end of each respective period. Encapsulates both the temporary GAAP valuation methodology differences between LSTs and HYPE plus the realization of previously accrued but unrecognized staking yield on LSTs. In the three months ended September 30, 2025, Gain on extinguishment of liability and a reduction in accrued liability within other income was $2.2 million and $0.2 million respectively, combined totaling $2.4 million. In the reconciliation of 'Total Other Income (Expense), Net' to 'Adjusted Other Income (Expense)', as well as in the reconciliation of 'Net Income (Loss)' to 'Adjusted EBITDA', in the three months ended September 30, 2025, other non-recurring items include gains on sales of equipment, release of reserves held against potential returns of company-sold items, and a one-time realized payment in connection with a terminated LOI. In the three months ended December 31, 2025, other non-recurring items include gains due to valuation differences in the time between contractual and actual delivery dates on certain company-paid expenses denominated in HYPE and in Company equity.
