Our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2025 are not yet complete due to the completion of our financial closing and other operational procedures, final adjustments, and other developments that may arise between now and the time such financial statements are finalized. Accordingly, we have only provided partial and preliminary financial information, or in certain cases, estimated ranges rather than specific amounts for the preliminary results as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2025 set forth below. Our final reported results may vary from the preliminary estimates and, accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on these preliminary estimates. The following preliminary unaudited consolidated financial information regarding our performance and financial condition as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2025 reflect our management's best estimate of the results as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and are based on the information available to us as of the date of this prospectus. Our actual unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and June 30, 2024, are not expected to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission until after the completion of this offering. The preliminary estimated financial results should not be considered a substitute for full financial statements as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2025, prepared in accordance with IFRS. The estimated and actual results presented below are not necessarily indicative of any future period and should be read together with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. See the sections entitled "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements," "Risk Factors," and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" for additional information regarding factors that could result in differences between the preliminary estimates of our financial results presented below and the financial results we will report as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Certain of the preliminary estimates of and actual financial results presented below are financial measures that are not recognized by IFRS and that may not be permitted to appear on the face of IFRS- compliant financial statements or notes thereto. These non-IFRS financial measures are "adjusted transaction revenue," "adjusted revenue," "adjusted net income (loss)" and "adjusted EBITDA." For a discussion of these measures and the limitations to the use of the non-IFRS financial measures presented in this prospectus, see section entitled " Management's Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Non-IFRS Financial Measures ." We also present an estimate of "gross liquid assets" and "net liquid assets" as of June 30, 2025, non-IFRS measures discussed in more detail below. 2 The preliminary estimated financial results as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2025, have been prepared by, and are the responsibility of, our management. Our independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, has not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to this preliminary financial information and, accordingly, Deloitte & Touche LLP does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto.

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we expect Other revenues to be in the range of $32.3 million and $31.3 million, as compared with $25.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, driven primarily by increase network solutions revenue. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we expect Change in fair value of digital assets held, net to be $68.4 million, as compared to $(99.4) million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, driven primarily by mark-to market adjustments. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we expect Net income/(loss) to be between $108.3 million and $107.3 million, as compared to Net income/(loss) of ($117.5) million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The expected increase is primarily driven by favorable changes in fair value of digital assets held and investments in financial assets. 3 Adjusted transaction revenue, Adjusted revenue, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted EBITDA are non-IFRS financial metrics. For more information regarding our use of these metrics and their usefulness to investors, including the limitations of their use, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Non-IFRS Financial Measures." The following tables present condensed consolidated statements of profit and loss and reconciliations of the aforementioned non-IFRS metrics to their most directly comparable IFRS financial metrics for the periods presented: Three months ended June 30, 2025 Total 2024 US$ million s Total Estimated US$ millions High Low Actual Non-IFRS Financial Measures Adjusted transaction revenue $ 24.1 $ 24.1 $ 34.9 Adjusted revenue $ 57.0 $ 56.0 $ 60.7 Adjusted net income $ (6.0 ) $ (7.0 ) $ 4.9 Adjusted EBITDA $ 8.1 $ 7.1 $ 14.8 For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we expect Adjusted transaction revenue to be $24.1 million, as compared to Adjusted transaction revenue of $34.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The expected decrease is primarily driven by lower trading spreads, which is the difference between digital asset sales and cost of digital assets derecognized. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we expect Adjusted revenue to be between $57.0 million and $56.0 million, as compared to Adjusted revenue of $60.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The expected decrease is primarily driven by decreased Adjusted transaction revenue, partially offset by increases in subscription and services revenue. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we expect Adjusted net income to be between ($6.0) million and ($7.0) million, as compared to Adjusted net income of $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The expected decrease is primarily driven by lower trading spreads and increased administrative expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we expect Adjusted EBITDA to be between $8.1 million and $7.1 million, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $14.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The expected decrease is primarily driven by decreased trading spreads and higher administrative expenses, partially offset by increases in subscription and services revenue.

If so, provide the disclosures required by IFRS 7.13B through IFRS 7.13E, or tell us where you provided these disclosures or why they are not warranted. o Tell us whether the carrying amount of your digital currency perpetual contract derivative financial asset is zero because the contracts have an hourly reset mechanism, as indicated in your response, and therefore are settled and have no or minimal value at the end of the day. If so, revise your disclosure to provide the digital currency perpetual contract derivative financial liability carrying and notional amounts or tell us why this disclosure is not warranted.

Please address the following: Revise your disclosure to highlight that net lending/repayment activity in the rollforward does not agree with the digital assets held - inventories rollforward in Note 13(a) because it includes activity associated with loans of digital financial assets. As the net repayment activity (including interest) in this rollforward of $119.4 in 2023 is less than the repayment activity depicted in the rollforward in Note 13(a), please confirm that the difference is the result of net USDC loans advanced and not net repayments as indicated in your response.
