Q2 2026 Highlights Clients on Platform, Normalized Assets on Platform, and Normalized Assets Staked increased 26%, 31%, and 36% year-over-year, respectively, reflecting continued growth in institutional adoption. Sharpened investment priorities and strengthened the operating model , expected to drive approximately $15 million of annualized cash savings.

Q2 2026 Summary The following tables present selected key financial and operating metrics for Q2 2026.

Period-over-period percentage comparisons are not meaningful due to the magnitude and/or directional nature of the change. 3 Normalized Assets on Platform and Normalized Assets Staked reflect prior period digital asset balances using current quarter median digital asset prices to better illustrate underlying asset growth excluding the impact of digital asset price movements. BitGo has adjusted these metrics to use the current quarter medians instead of quarter average to reduce the impact of statistical outliers in the data and to better present a comparable normalized figure. Management Commentary Mike Belshe, CEO of BitGo “BitGo continued strengthening its institutional platform during the second quarter. We grew assets on platform, deepened client relationships, streamlined our cost structure, and continued investing in capabilities that make our platform more valuable to clients and the broader ecosystem. As digital assets, stablecoins, and tokenized financial markets adoption accelerates, we believe demand for secure, regulated infrastructure will expand significantly. That’s where BitGo is uniquely positioned. Our role is to provide the critical infrastructure institutions need regardless of which assets, networks, or applications ultimately succeed. We’re already seeing that thesis play out. Following quarter-end, we supported DTCC’s demonstration of tokenized securities by providing the regulated custody infrastructure that enabled institutions to securely custody and transfer tokenized assets. We believe this represents an important milestone in the advancement of tokenized financial markets. Together, with our work supporting initiatives such as Canton Network and Figure, it demonstrates that leading institutions are increasingly selecting BitGo’s regulated infrastructure as digital assets move into production. We believe we’re still in the early stages of institutional adoption. As our industry continues to advance, we believe BitGo is well positioned to provide the critical infrastructure institutions require and capture a growing share of that long-term growth opportunity.” Ed Reginelli, CFO of BitGo “Total Q2 revenue increased 14.7% sequentially and 79.6% year-over-year to approximately $4.3 billion in the second quarter. During the quarter, we sharpened our investment priorities and took actions expected to generate approximately $15 million of annualized cash savings. With $159.0 million of cash, approximately $147.7 million of company-owned Bitcoin, no corporate-level debt, and a recently authorized $50 million share repurchase program, we have the financial flexibility to invest behind our highest-priority opportunities while maintaining discipline around costs and capital allocation. As we enter the second half, our focus is translating continued business growth into stronger earnings, disciplined capital allocation, and more durable financial performance.” Consolidated Financial Highlights Total Revenue of $4.3 billion increased 79.6% year-over-year, driven primarily by higher Digital Asset Sales activity and growth from Stablecoin-as-a-Service. Sequentially, total revenue increased 14.7%, reflecting higher revenue across Digital Asset Sales, Staking, Subscriptions and Services, and Stablecoin-as-a-Service. Net Loss was $19.0 million compared to Net Income of $38.3 million in Q2 2025 and Net Loss of $60.7 million in Q1 2026. The year-over-year change primarily reflected a $18.8 million unrealized loss on digital assets in Q2 2026, compared with a $55.8 million unrealized gain in the prior-year period. The sequential improvement primarily reflected a smaller unrealized mark-to-market loss on digital assets and lower compensation and benefits expense, including the normalization of IPO-related stock-based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA Loss was $4.2 million compared with an Adjusted EBITDA gain of $3.0 million in Q2 2025 and an Adjusted EBITDA Loss of $1.7 million in Q1 2026. The sequential decline primarily reflected lower economic contribution from Digital Asset Sales and Staking, partially offset by lower cash compensation and professional fees. Basic and Diluted EPS were $(0.16) compared with Basic EPS of $0.33 and Diluted EPS of $0.28 in the prior year, primarily reflecting the change from an unrealized gain on digital assets in the prior-year period to an unrealized loss in Q2 2026. Balance Sheet of $159.0 million of cash and cash equivalents and continued to maintain a balance sheet with no corporate level debt. In addition, our corporate treasury held 2,523 company-owned Bitcoin with a fair value of approximately $147.7 million as of June 30, 2026. Business Line Financial Highlights BitGo generates revenue by facilitating client activity across its platform, capturing value through transaction-based and recurring fees across multiple offerings. ($ in millions, unless otherwise stated; unaudited)   Q2’26 Q2’26   Offerings Revenue Direct Costs 1 Unit Economics Digital Asset Sales $ 4,197.5 $ 4,190.4   Margin: 17 bps Staking   64.7   60.8   Take Rate: 6.0% Subscriptions and Services   27.5   —   — Stablecoin-as-a-Service   38.8   35.7   Take Rate: 8.0% Interest Income   0.8   —   — Total $ 4,329.4 $ 4,286.9   — Digital Asset Sales: Revenue of approximately $4.2 billion, up 14.7% sequentially and 84.3% year-over-year. After direct costs, overall quarterly margin was approximately $7.1 million. While overall Digital Assets Sales volume increased, margins were impacted by lower spreads on certain spot trading transactions and lower mix of derivatives activity. As a result, our overall Digital Asset Sales margin decreased to 17 basis points, compared to 32 basis points in the first quarter and 19 basis points in the prior-year period. Spot trading revenue is recognized on a gross basis, whereas derivatives revenue is recognized on a net basis. Consequently, changes in the product mix between spot trading and derivatives can have a meaningful impact on reported Digital Asset Sales revenue and the associated margin. Staking: Revenue of $64.7 million was up 30.9% sequentially but down 28.8% year-over-year. Staking fees were $60.8 million, resulting in a take rate of 6.0% compared to a take rate of 16.1% in Q1 and 10.0% a year ago. Normalized Assets Staked increased 3.0% sequentially and 36.1% year over year. Sequential revenue growth reflected higher institutional staking activity, while client mix and lower take rates pressured margins. Subscriptions and Services: Revenue of $27.5 million was up 7.7% sequentially and up 8.5% year-over-year. The sequential increase reflected continued client growth and activity, together with increased project-based ecosystem and implementation work. Our custody and wallet relationships remain the foundation of the platform. Our priority is to convert more of those relationships into recurring, multi-product revenue. Stablecoin-as-a-Service: Revenue of $38.8 million, up 1.7% sequentially and 148.0% year-over-year. Stablecoin sponsor fees were $35.7 million, resulting in a take rate of 8.0%, compared to 7.4% in Q1 and 2.6% a year ago. Sequential growth was supported by higher reserve balances and fixed monthly fees from newly supported stablecoin programs. The pipeline is healthy, and we continue to see opportunities to expand the number of stablecoin programs supported by the platform. Chief Financial Officer Transition BitGo today announced that Chief Financial Officer, Ed Reginelli, will transition from his role during the coming quarter. Mr. Reginelli will remain with the Company to support an orderly transition.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believe they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating our ongoing operational performance. We believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with peer companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures provided in the Appendix below. Adjusted EBITDA : We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), excluding (i) provision for income taxes, (ii) depreciation and amortization, (iii) stock-based compensation expense, (iv) employer payroll taxes on employee stock transactions, (v) net changes in unrealized appreciation (loss) on digital assets, (vi) certain non-recurring charges (which are specified in detail below), and (vii) restructuring charges. The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because they are non-cash in nature, their amount and timing are volatile and influenced by digital asset prices, they are unpredictable, or they are not driven by the core results of operations. In any case, including such items would reduce the comparability of our financial performance across periods and with industry peers.
