Nakamoto attributed the bulk of its Q1 net loss to a $107.7 million non-cash reduction linked to a pre-acquisition option and a $102.5 million mark-to-market loss on its 5,058 Bitcoin (BTC) treasury as the cryptocurrency fell 23% during the quarter. The Bitcoin treasury industry has faced pressure over the past year, with Bitcoin down 37% from its all-time high, causing some analysts to cast doubt on the sustainability of buy-and-hold strategies. Most Bitcoin treasuries outside of Strategy and Metaplanet have slowed Bitcoin buying over the last 12 months, while others have eaten into their Bitcoin treasury to pay off debt. Nakamoto has been one of the hardest-hit Bitcoin treasuries during this downturn, with company shares down over 99.2% from its all-time high. The company didn't buy any Bitcoin during the quarter, but sold 284 Bitcoin on March 31 to cover operational expenses.

Nakamoto said BTC Inc. and UTXO Management would be two of the “foundational businesses” setting the company up for long-term growth in the Bitcoin ecosystem. The Bitcoin company said that its sixfold revenue increase came despite only a partial quarter of contribution from these businesses, as deals were finalized on Feb. 20. Looking forward, Bailey said Nakamoto’s “focus for the remainder of 2026 is execution — scaling our operating businesses, expanding revenue opportunities, and continuing to build durable shareholder value through disciplined capital allocation and long-term conviction in Bitcoin.” One of those strategies involves using the company’s Bitcoin holdings as collateral to run yield-generating derivatives strategies. Nakamoto also plans to fully wind down its healthcare business by the end of Q2, placing more focus on Bitcoin-related activities. Nakamoto changed its name from KindlyMD in January after forming a merger with the Utah-based healthcare provider in August.
