Note 18. Segment Reporting

 


The Company has two operating segments – digital assets and merchant banking. The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The measure of profit or loss used by the CODM to identify and measure the Company’s reportable segments is income before income tax. The Company’s digital assets segment includes the operations related to the ETH treasury strategy. Our merchant banking segment includes our equity and other holdings. The “other” category primarily includes rental income and expenses related to the Company’s real estate in Canada and the land and building previously owned and operated by Digital Ignition.

 

The following tables present the financial information for each segment that is specifically identifiable or based on allocations using internal methodology for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):

About Segments Disclosures

Segment disclosures break a company into its reportable operating units, revealing revenue, profit, and asset allocation that consolidated financial statements obscure. Under ASC 280, segments must match how the chief operating decision maker views the business, providing a window into internal management structure and resource allocation priorities.

Key signals: compare segment margins to identify which units drive profitability and which destroy value. Watch for changes in the number of reportable segments — segment aggregation or disaggregation often coincides with strategic shifts or attempts to obscure declining performance. Intersegment elimination patterns reveal internal pricing practices. The reconciliation between segment totals and consolidated figures exposes corporate overhead allocation and unallocated items. Geographic revenue concentration highlights regulatory and currency exposure. Compare segment-level capital expenditure against segment revenue to assess where management is investing for future growth versus harvesting existing assets.
