VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. (TSX-V: DMGI) (OTCQB US: DMGGF) (FRANKFURT: 6AX) ("DMG"), a vertically integrated digital asset and data center technology company, today announces its fiscal second quarter 2026 unaudited financial results. All financial references are in Canadian Dollars unless specified otherwise. Readers are encouraged to review the Company's March 31, 2026 quarterly unaudited financial statements and management's discussion and analysis thereof for an assessment of the Company's performance and applicable risk factors, available at www.sedarplus.ca.
Q2 2026 Financial Results Highlights
- Revenue: $7.3 million, down 35% from $11.2 million in Q1 2026 and down 42% from $12.6 million in Q2 2025
- Bitcoin Mined: 69 bitcoin, flat versus Q1 2026 and down 25% from 91 bitcoin in Q2 2025
- Hashrate: 1.70 EH/s, down 4% from Q1 2026 with fleet efficiency of 21.4 J/TH, a 3% improvement
- Cash, Short-term Investments and Digital Assets: $47.4 million at the end of Q2 2026, down 19% from $58.6 million at the end of Q1 2026
- Total Assets: $109.9 million at the end of Q2 2026, down 10% from $122.0 million at the end of Q1 2026

DMG's CEO, Sheldon Bennett, commented, "In Q2 2026, we continued to sharpen our focus on our two strategic pillars: our Core data center operations and our Core+ Digital Asset Financial Services. Much of our effort continues to be on how adeptly we can convert our Christina Lake, BC facility to an AI data center capable of providing at least 50 megawatts of critical IT load, and we are encouraged by what we see in the market. With respect to Systemic Trust, we continue to build out the platform to offer a broad range of services that we believe will provide the best chance of success. We remain committed to these strategic initiatives, which we anticipate will deliver the most value to our shareholders."
Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results Review
Revenue for Q2 2026 was $7.3 million, compared to $12.6 million in Q2 2025. The decrease in revenue is attributable to a decrease in digital currency mining revenue of $4.9 million, which is primarily the result of a decrease in both the amount of digital currency mined and the average price of digital currency.
Operating and maintenance expenses for Q2 2026 were $5.2 million, compared to $7.6 million for Q2 2025. This decrease is primarily due to a $2.2 million decrease in utilities expenses driven by favorable non-firm electricity rates realized during the recent period and the retirement of inefficient digital currency miners.
General and administrative costs for Q2 2026 were $1.3 million, compared to $1.9 million for Q2 2025. General and administrative costs consist mostly of wages, professional fees, consulting fees and financing costs. The overall decrease of $0.6 million is attributable mainly to a decrease in consulting expenses and professional fees over the prior period.
Depreciation for Q2 2026 was $2.8 million compared to $4.3 million for Q2 2025. The relatively low level of recent additions has limited the offsetting impact on depreciation expense, contributing to the lower depreciation expense for the current period.
Net loss for Q2 2026 was $3.5 million compared to a net loss of $3.3 million for Q2 2025.
Total assets as of March 31, 2026 were $109.9 million (September 30, 2025 - $132.0 million), a decrease of $22.1 million. The decrease is mostly attributable to a $16.7 million change in the fair value of digital currency balances between the periods, as well as a reduction in property and equipment of $6.2 million, which resulted from normal course depreciation and the disposition of decommissioned miners, which was not offset by property and equipment additions during the period.

Future changes in the Bitcoin network-wide mining difficulty rate or Bitcoin hashrate may materially affect the future performance of DMG's production of bitcoin, and future operating results could also be materially affected by the price of bitcoin and an increase in hashrate and mining difficulty.
Forward-looking statements consist of statements that are not purely historical, including any statements regarding beliefs, plans, expectations, or intentions regarding the future. Such information can generally be identified by the use of forwarding-looking wording such as "may", "expect", "estimate", "anticipate", "intend", "believe" and "continue" or the negative thereof or similar variations. The reader is cautioned that assumptions used in the preparation of any forward-looking information may prove to be incorrect. Events or circumstances may cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted, as a result of numerous known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, including but not limited to, market and other conditions, volatility in the trading price of the common shares of the Company, business, economic and capital market conditions; the ability to manage operating expenses, which may adversely affect the Company's financial condition; the ability to remain competitive as other better financed competitors develop and release competitive products; regulatory uncertainties; access to equipment; market conditions and the demand and pricing for products; the demand and pricing of bitcoin; the demand and pricing of AI data centers and usage; security threats, including a loss/theft of DMG's bitcoin; DMG's relationships with its customers, distributors and business partners; the inability to add more power to DMG's facilities; DMG's ability to successfully define, design and release new products in a timely manner that meet customers' needs; the ability to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel; competition in the industry; the impact of technology changes on the products and industry; failure to develop new and innovative products; the ability to successfully maintain and enforce our intellectual property rights and defend third-party claims of infringement of their intellectual property rights; the impact of intellectual property litigation that could materially and adversely affect the business; the ability to manage working capital; and the dependence on key personnel. DMG may not actually achieve its plans, projections, or expectations. Such statements and information are based on numerous assumptions regarding present and future business strategies and the environment in which the Company will operate in the future, including the demand for its products and services, the ability to successfully develop software, that there will be no regulation or law that will prevent the Company from operating its business, anticipated costs, the ability to secure sufficient capital to complete its business plans, the ability to achieve goals and the price of bitcoin. Given these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The securities of DMG are considered highly speculative due to the nature of DMG's business. For further information concerning these and other risks and uncertainties, refer to the Company's filings on www.sedarplus.ca. In addition, DMG's past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include failure to obtain regulatory approval, the continued availability of capital and financing, equipment and/or infrastructure failures, lack of supply of equipment, power and infrastructure, failure to obtain any permits required to operate the business, the impact of technology changes on the industry, the impact of viruses and diseases on the Company's ability to operate, secure equipment, and hire personnel, competition, security threats including stolen bitcoin from DMG or its customers, consumer sentiment towards DMG's products, services and blockchain and AI technology generally, failure to develop new and innovative products, litigation, lack of demand for the Company's products and services, adverse weather or climate events, increase in operating costs, increase in equipment and labor costs, equipment failures, decrease in the price of Bitcoin, failure of counterparties to perform their contractual obligations, government regulations, loss of key employees and consultants, and general economic, market or business conditions.
